Good afternoon! Normally, my OOTD posts are centered around th pieces I wear on Sundays. It makes for mor econvenient shooting since I'm already dressed and in great spirits to take some good photos. However, today's post will be a bit different. I attended a black tie affair this past Saturday and the pieces are too good not to tell you all about!

My curve hugging and stomach thinning dress is from my favorite place to purchase quality and low price pieces...ASOS! This dress was super flattering. I wore very minimal shapewear due to the corset-type slype underneath the lace detail. And speaking of lace...every year at the Fatih International Church Anniversary dinner, my aim is to show out. I attempt to do so in different ways, but lace is for sure one of my favorites. My draw to the fabric is that it adds a soft sexiness just about everytime. This number was no different, although the all over lace ffect was what sold me on it.

My shoes were a pair of strappy heels I got from Marshall's on the clearance shelf. They're actually a pair of Nine West heels that I scored, sans the Nine West price. I decided on a simpler heel to go with the rather dramatic dress. The dress had to be the center of attention. And that it was.

I don't normally get to do ball gowns or formal wear in this capacity, but I was glad that ASOS didn't disappoint!

Good evening everyone! This week's outfit was a homage to one of my favorite stylists (soon turned blogger) D. Nicole! She was one of the people who inspired me to begin creating Polyvore sets. She's a fellow plus sized diva, but she creates some amazing ensembles for the petite and straight sized fashionistas as well! Check out her IG page, Stylebydnicole. She'll have some great outfits for the upcoming warm weather. No matter where you are, you'll be sure to find something that works for you! And while you're at it, check out my Polyvore page for new outfit creations. Happy Sunday!

Faithfully,

Brieana

Good evening all! As the warmer weather approaches, I've pulled out some of my favorite skirts from the past few years. I'm not much of a dress wearer (unless in special occasions), but skirts allow me to dress up or down, while still bringing a feminine allure to any outfit. This particular skirt is from a few years ago at Forever 21+. It features some tribal yellow print details, and some slits on each side that reach up to the thigh area. The skirt features an elastic waist, which makes tucking a shirt in really easy and seamless. I paired it with my distressed jeans jacket, also Forever 21+. My fringed purse is from H&M, and I finished it off with my chunky heel from Charlotte Russe for an ultimate boho chic Sunday look.

You'll be seeing plenty of skirts from me in the weeks to come. Let me know what your preference is. Long? Shirt? Mini? Maxi? I love hearing from you!
