My Black is Blocked
My Black is Blocked..... Color blocked that is. Let's start with the dress.
The dress was made using Mimi G color block dress pattern ( yes, she autographed it at her Passion to Profit seminar in Chicago April 2015)
I used left over scrap material I had that was too small to use but too big to just throw away. And just for that reason, I'm glad I kept them. The pieces were just big enough to put together this dress and another (to be featured soon).
The pattern was easy to follow and I think it came out great. I'm really proud of myself for this project. 
Now, on to the rest of this outfit. 
The denim coat, blue/black cool shoes and necklace were all Thrifted.
All in all I love my dress and I am very proud of myself for making it using a pattern. Especially my "Gurl Crush" pattern (#MimiGStyle).
As I always say,
Remember "It ain't what you wear, it's how you wear it"

Quote That
Dare to Begin..... That is a powerful statement to me.
I was watching tv this weekend and was so moved my this story of Ryan Henry of 9 Mag tattoo shop in Chicago.
Ryan knew he had the talent of a true artist but couldn't or wouldn't allow himself to see where this gift could take him. After a conversation with Nova (Ryan's sister) the next day, she promised to give him money for an artist apprenticeship he wanted to take part in.
Sad to say she and her baby were murdered that night by her boyfriend.
How crazy it that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The family agreed that the money that was given to them in cards of condolence for Nova, would be given to Ryan because even they seen what Nova seen in Ryan's potential.
So dare to begin. Stop standing in your own way, You just have to start!!!

DIY denim fringe jacket
I had the pleasure of visiting family in Ohio over the weekend. And while I was there I was taken to this Discount Designer Warehouse. Well, needless to say I got some goodies.
Now, I was not selfish with my shopping, I bought my hubby a XXL denim jacket for $6. He tried it on and it was too little. So I had to go to plan B, after I tried it on and it was way too big for me. 
So thanks to a friend's suggestion, I cut it into fringes. And with that said, here is the new and improve denim jacket.
As for the rest of the outfit, the tan turtle neck and tan skirt I got from The Gap at Great Lakes Crossing (huge shopping mall in Michigan) for $20 for both. I both this same set in 2 other colors also black and seafront green. 
You don't have to go broke to dress cute. You just have to find your style and "Remember, It ain't what you wear, it's how you wear it"The tame hat was Thrifted. The Burberry scarf, thanks to Canal street in NY. The tan cape I got from the retail store Dots a couple years ago.
