Stylensire: trench take

Burberry has the blueprint on making the world's best trench coats ever!
 But this sleeveless Marc Jacobs version was a 'must have' for me and my take on styling it as a dress is simply chic. This trench was a 'high end' 'fab find' from last summer, but for the price, I have quite enjoyed wearing it last fall, this past spring and now again this season. The fact that it is sleeveless makes it irresistible and quite versatile to style.


I love buying versatile pieces for my wardrobe as I never like to be constrained on when and how I can wear a fashion item. The best buys are those you can implement into your everyday styling whichever way you choose to. You wear your money's worth but also get to enjoy doing so.

Trendy this season are animal prints which I see on almost everyone each day. From handbags to clutches to scarves and shoes and clothing; animal prints are on everything fashionable. Trends like this make my heart smile as I can daily shop my closet to style this print. It does help to have a matured fashion collection so you don't have to go out and buy, buy, buy.


My choosing to wear these purple suede booties gave my whole look a stylenspired twist that I very much enjoyed wearing. And oh, these booties were a gift from three birthdays ago! It was such a beauty/blessing to receive and I 'ooh' over it now as I did then. Fact is, each of these pieces  are a timeless style that I will enjoy for time to come. 

Happy Tuesday!

Stylenspire: somewhat nautical


When I looked at myself in the mirror this morning 'ahoy' sprang to mind. I know it is something with my stripped top & sailor bottoms that made me think nautical, but adding the jewelry & shoes puts me on land than at sea. Now I find myself with an itch to go dip my feet in some kind of water. Sigh* I wish there was sea/ocean water nearby.
My jewelry & shoes are the pieces that set today's outfit apart for me. I love, love the shoes I'm wearing & my statement necklace is a vintage piece I found at a consignment store. 
It was fun taking these pictures with Victoria today. I just love her heart! 
Enjoy the 'Extra~Extra' below & don't forget to leave a comment to let me know what you think. ❌⭕❌⭕❗

Stylenspire: smile art


Blessings are nearer than we sometimes think, richly present in all our moments. The more you are aware of the possibility of a blessing that may be coming around the corner just for you, the more free you are to enjoy the moment. 

Each smile in the pictures below was borne from the gentle nudging of my friend Victoria who took these pictures. She is my blessing that came around the corner, & selflessly enhanced my style with the beauty of her gift. 
Enjoy!














Outfit details: Marc by Marc Jacobs silk flower print top from TJ Maxx // Levi Strauss flowered white jeans also a TJ Maxx find // Rebecca Minkoff mini flirty bag // Gold Diane Von Furstenberg flats are old, find similar here // Red Zara Hiver Automne shoe is an old TJ Maxx find

Stylenspiration: Floral power style art attracts. Gold flats were paired with outfit for a busy day, & the red heels worked the outfit for an evening out with friends.
