EMPOWE[RED]
Using Fashion as a Tool:
Empowered in RED!
There's no doubt that your outfit makes you feel a certain way. Whether you're bummin' it in comfy sweats or swingin' it in a frilly skirt or workin' it in a killer mini, your mood absolutely is fed by your creation. When I need to feel in CONTROL or in DEMAND, I always find myself reaching for red. Without hesitation or fail, this hue continuously amps up my game whether I'm in the office or on the town.
Here are some of my favorite power-up creations!
*Empowe[red] with Pants*
#3
#1: Beginning with my bright red off the shoulder top, I paired this puppy with my black wash jeggings, black specs, gunmetal skinny belt & corresponding drop earrings, my "Sophia" boudoir bra (the red straps appear to be part of the top!), and my knee-high black stiletto boots. This creation was not only comfy, the top was the perfect tummy-camo while creating the exta-red power trip!
#2: My skinny jeans are the perfect start to my "Jammy" red creation! My tank is actually a RS sleepwear top! With the help of my solid red jacket (a find from my high school closet left at Moms), I iced this outfit with brass jewelry & my white wedges to boot! Comfort aside, nothing demands attention like bright red lips. On a day you're feeling down, pen on some lipstick and rock your inner goddess!
#3: This creation is the result of a long, difficult, & frustrating week of work. Wanting to end the week with a bang, I searched for the ideal RED outfit... Rocking a pair of jeans jeggings, I added a completely transparent red lace tank (compliments of Mom's 80s wardrobe) topped by a camel silk jacket. Accessorized with multiple multi-colored bracelets, gold earrings, and, most importantly, my red patent pumps. There was no denying my drive & refusal to quit!
*Do note that in all of these creations I have made sure to wear "big girl" heels. Standing tall in a pair of heels makes all the difference in your confidence boosting!*
*Empowe[red] with Dresses*
#1: Who doesn't want to be the center of attention at a dinner party?
This unique cotton wrap dress by Miss Tina is a favorite within my classy dresses. Matched with black tights & black patent Mary Jane's topped off by simple gunmetal & pearl drop earrings by my adored R.J. Graziano, this dress is fabulously attention grabbing with or without tights!
#2: Who doesn't want to stand out in a crowd?
Attending Fashion Week Tampa Bay (have I mentioned that I LOVE my job?!), I wore this deep red one-sholuder mini with all the right rouching & cinching to draw eyes to me. This mini was a find at... (I'm not joking)... Marshalls! A big thanks to my cuñada, Val, for lending it to me! Completing the creation with bright red lips, a multi-stranded brass necklace with matching earrings & ring and finalized with my brand-spankin'-new Jessica Simpson black/gold mega pumps. These are bound to be a winter staple!
*The cut of a dress is pivotal to your mood enhancement. For us curvy gals, sticking with a waist cinching cut or skin-tight number will, undoubtedly, always do the trick!*
