Sulfur + Silver

Happy Hump Day ladies! After a challenging weekend it seems as if this week is moving by so quickly. Work has been uber crazy and it’s surely tepting to get a little overwhelmed and have a mini meltdown. However, I’m in full on beast mode trying to accomplish my tasks. If you’ve been following me for a while then you know I see fashion as an instant mood booster. So today’s look is my way of realsing my inner Girl Boss.

You may recall back in 2013 that high fashion label Prabal Gurung collaborated with Target to release a bold, artistic collection of ready to wear pieces. Each garment told a story and the color palate was vivid – totally not for the fashion faint of heart. The collection literally sold out in no time. I had to ask a co-worker from North Jersey to stop by her local Target to score me the fabulous dress featured here.

This ruffled chiffon number immediatley caught my eye due to the rich sulfer color. I’ve decided to stay organic and add some metallic silver accents and completed the look with a bold tangerine lip. Guess who’s ready to slay the rest of this week? XO

Color Block + Stripes

Happy Monday beautiful people! I can’t speak for you but last week was a rough one for me. However, today’s a beand new day. The sun is shining and I woke up – so basically I’m blessed. How about you? There’s lots to do this week, one of which is finally introducing our new reading material for 3rd Quarter devotions. I’m excited about what’s to come for us on this journey, I hope you are too!

Since Monday’s generally get a bad rap for being gloomy I’ve decided to brighten up my mood and hopefully yours by sporting a bold outfit. A great mix of comfort and style, I’ve paired a cotton striped skirt with a bold top. The contrast is eye catching and the comfy wedges mean I can be fabulous all day, even while traveling on the train. To top it off I’ve added a bold clutch and a leather belt to cinch the waist. Color has an amazing effect on our senses, and this combination has me ready to slay and take on the work week. Xoxo!

Y – Back Dress + Folded Clutch

Hey girlfriend! It’s back to business here at SPS and after the events of the last two weeks, I’m in a much better space mentally thanks to prayer and self care. We are in full heatwave season here in Philly with temperatures in the nineties daily, and let me tell you, the struggle is real! I’m trying to keep my skin as clear as possible which often means keeping my hair and all it’s tropical product off of my face. Trust that updos, pinned wash & go’s, and some head wraps will be in full effect this summer!

Today I’ve decided to beat the heat with a bold and beautiful dress. This soft chiffon material in watercolor pattern has a Y-Back design. The slight ruffle along the bustline add a chic touch. I’ve added some oversize sunnies to compliment my retro undo. With so much gorgeous color in the dress, I opted for clear mules and finished the look with a bright folded clutch. Simple, sophisticated, and summer ready. Stay cool in this heat loves, XO – Kira.

Happy Monday loves!

Can you believe this is the last Monday of 2015? I pray you had a safe enjoyable holiday with friends and family. Please forgive me for dropping the ball on holiday posts. I had a fabulous line up in mind but failed to execute due to lack of proper planning. It’s a lesson learned and a mistake I won’t repeat…

Speaking of holidays, I will forever remember Christmas 2015 because we hit 70 degrees here in Philly. I literally turned on my air conditioning Friday and no one in the family bat an eye! It’s safe to say Global Warming is real and Jesus is soon to return. In fact yesterday’s high was somewhere in the upper 40’s, but I will stop discussing the weather because I feel like I do that a lot in these style posts…another habit to break in 2016 I suppose. Since it finally feels like winter, I’ve decided to pull out my favorite coat. For two years now this vintage find has been my go-to winter statement piece. One hundred percent wool, this oversize boyfriend coat comes with fringe and a fabulous bright plaid pattern. My coat of many colors, perfect for the dreamer in me! XO
