How To Rock A Tartan Skirt And A Fur Jacket

Hello all my beautiful friends! Do you fast? I am doing that 21-day fast with my church. Every year we choose to fast something that we love. Last year was pasta for me. But this year is meat. Today hubby and I went to ihop  and I almost ate the bacon. Thank God the holy spirit was there to remind me 🙂 I have 15 more days to go. It gets easier, believe me!
I swear I was not trying to be America’s next top model in the last picture. I told my son to just point and shoot, but he found it amusing to play with the zoom button. If you’ve ever wondered what I look like when I am mad, just skip to the last picture. LOL! We are still trying to figure out the new camera. I will have to try different settings until I get it right. It is so much easier to just use my iPhone.

How To Rock A Tartan Skirt And A Fur Jacket

Anyway, I decided to play with plaid. Or is it tartan? Well, it depends on where you are reading the blog from 🙂 Winter doesn’t mean you have to put your summer and fall clothes away.  You can layer up pieces to keep you warm. I paired my tartan skirt with this blue shirt from Apparel and Bags. To keep the legs warm and create a contrast, I used black leggings and boots. And that fur vest from my sister is the gift that keeps on giving. It gives each outfit their unique flare.  I wore it here last year with black pants.

 

 

 

My fierce look. Haha!
Enjoy your weekend, love!

    You look so girly here. This outfit reminds me of school uniform back in my school days of the W.I. You look slim, trim and super Cute and you know I love the Big Hair. Btw give that photographer a raise in his allowance. . .LOL.

    Hey darling, our posts this week do have some similarities. I can't wait till you read it on saturday. I love your plaid skirt and the fur vest, mmmm I can tell it keeps giving. Lovely look, very preppy. I do fast although it's been a minute since I last did. I guess the older I get the harder it becomes. By the way I love your fierce look, ;).

    First of all I love the last pic, its definitely fierce! The weather looks pretty good from the pics. Does the fur keep you warm?

    • January 8, 2016 / 1:39 pm

      It's faux fur, Tomi. And yes, it does keep me warm. Happy weekend babe!

    Hello lovely, you look stunning, love the skirt!! And of course the tartan 😉 Looks like the Flower of Scotland tartan, but I'd have to see the tartan pattern closer to know for sure. But, the colours look perfect on you 🙂 Posing posing, you have to do something to make pictures more fun sometimes, haha. Especially in winter time.I hope you have a wonderful weekend my dear xx

      Tantan, yes! 😀 I will keep that in mind. Thanks, Kizzy! :-bd

    I like the fierce look, you go! So much to learn about my camera still, I'm scared to do anything with it. Playing with the settings is fun too, but I have so much to learn myself. Love plaid and I love the look!

    Your fierce look is adorable. Your son would have thought you were giving him love eyes lol. I do fast sometimes but not as much now as I used to back in Africa. Bless you! The Holy Spirit is always there to remind us and guide our path.

    • January 12, 2016 / 1:23 am

      Awww! Thank you so much Elsie!

    It's a beautiful combination and I totally relate with that last shot/pose because my kids (my amazing photographers) play the same trick too.

    Great Post.
