Camoflauge Trench

Hi Dolls,

I knew the warmer weather was a trap!  It is March 5th and we woke up to 39 degree weather in Florida this morning.  Like whaaat?  Up north is experiencing snow blizzards, it feels like December again in my neck of the woods, and I’m just over here wanting to show off my new white pedi!  Luckily, I have this fabulous camo trench coat form Nicole Jaimez boutique I can get a little more use out of since I bought it right before the weather warmed up at the end of February!  

“These temps ain’t loyal!”

In other news, I am totally here for this look.  I have been on the hunt for a cute camo trench all winter so when I attended the Pop-Up shop for the Nicole Jaimez Boutique, I was elated to find one there.  I originally rocked the faux fur stole but it got a little warm so I took it off.  However, it’ll definitely keep my neck toasty next winter so I’ll be pulling it back out then!

The styling options are endless for this jacket.  As I mentioned earlier, the weather is so iffy so it warmed up before I could get more use out of it.  But look out next fall and winter because it’s so on!  This jacket can definitely be dressed up or down.

I love how the patches add interest and a little more color to the jacket.  Makes it the perfect accessory for plenty of looks to come.

Now can we talk about how dope the background is for these pics?  One thing I can say about Jacksonville, besides having great places to eat, is that there are lots of hidden gems around town for cool pictures.  I thought a graffitti walls would be the perfect backdrop for this look.  I was totally feeling myself with the black jumper, dark shades, and camo jacket against these walls!

So I saved my best (or favorite) picture for last!  When my photographer sent me this picture, I couldn’t stop looking at.  I think it looks so cool.  
These two things came to mind as soon as I saw it:
 “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”
1.) Because of the pose of course!  However, when I looked up the meaning off the quote, it seemed quite fitting.  It means to have special hidden talents.  I think everyone has special hidden talents to be honest. Some have discovered them, some may not have realized their gifts yet but I think I’m aware of some of my prominent talents.  I’ll share one of them.  I’m an artist!  I love drawing and painting and being artsy fartsy!  Those closest to me  know this about me but many don’t so it’s definitely a hidden talent. 

Speaking of being an artist, the second thing that came to mind when I saw this picture was the infamous quote by none other than the talented Erykah Badu.

“Keep in mind, I’m and artist and I’m sensitive about my S*@T!”

2.) Mainly because I feel like this shot is so dope!   There’s no amount of criticism that could change my mind.  It’s artistic and that’s one of the great things about being an artist.  It really is in the eye of the beholder….in this case, however, you can’t argue me lol!  This picture is all that!

So with all of that being said, have an amazing week and do everything this week like a “BAWSE”!  

Thanks for your continued support and for stopping by!
