The Contemporary Romper: Summer Fashion Statement

The contemporary romper is always up for debate.  Some say it’s the equivalent of a middle school outfit and others believe it’s a wardrobe staple.

Wearing a romper can be a great choice. It’s both casual and dressy; worn with sneakers, wedges, or diamond studs.

To look amazing in a romper, it has to fit appropriately.  Rompers should drape nicely (on the shoulders) and taper to the waist.  Also, the sleeves should not extend beyond the wrist or pant length extremely short.

Rompers are fashionable, sexy, and comfortable.  Take a look at the option below:

AMI Clubwear – Ready To Wear Collection and Style Options

AMI Clubwear re-launched their Ready To Wear Collection online. The company asked me to share a few style options and I immediately accepted the challenge.

Fashion is a form of self-expression and I wanted to project my personality through the following pieces.  The Sheer Cut Stripe Print Dress is a great party option that can be dressed up (with a pair of heels) or down (wearing a denim jacket.)  Red is also a power hue and compliments most skin tones.

The romper (or jumpsuit) trend is a must-have item for this season. A well-fitted Romper can be worn to brunch, a meeting, or date night. Purchasing a Classic Trench Coat can be another versatile piece; either styled alone or accessorized with a blanket scarf.

AMI Clubwear is a trendy e-commerce site and a great option for the girl who’s seeking fashion on a budget!

 

 

 

 

 

Jill Scott Concert 2016 – Songstress and Poet

One of my favorite quotes is “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams” by Eleanor Roosevelt.  This quote is significant in terms of goal setting and personal achievement.

Attending a Jill Scott concert was a goal on my personal to-do list.  Jill Scott is a soulful singer and her voice has a variety of range.  As a song-writer, her lyrics go beyond the surface; addressing topics that are realistic to listeners.

I was gifted a set of tickets from my brother (and sister-in-law) to take part in her performance at the Amphitheater located in Tuscaloosa.

Lace Chiffon Sleeveless Romper purchased from Amazon Prime

Jill Scott’s concert pushed beyond the limits of watching a songstress to viewing a “seasoned” artist/poet.

She gave us relationship advice and shared reflections from her own life. The concert was amazing and I encourage anyone who’s a fan of her music to purchase tickets from ticketmaster.com
