Talking My Style :: Chambray & Floral

Hello beautiful people!

It's the beginning of another work week and hope you're off to a great start.

Today's post features a completely new item of its kind in my closet. Up until now, I didn't own a pair of chambray shirt, which if you ask some people, they'll say it's a closet staple because it's versatile. I wouldn't say I've held off on purchasing one for one reason or the other. I just never felt like I'm missing anything. When I saw this boyfriend fit style at Gap, I decided to get it just because. With this style, I can easily wear it as a shirt as seen here or as a light jacket.

This sort of goes along with the question that I sometimes get asked. Do I go along with the trends? Personally, I would say I don't . I shop based on what I like and what I think will look good on me. If that item or style just so happen to be in trend and own by a million other people, can't help it. But I wouldn't say I shop or follow any particular trend. Not that it's a bad thing to follow any trend.

I try to make every piece my own with the way I style it and define my own style.  If you've been following me long enough, you'll know one or two words that constantly shows up in my posts. Simple and Elegant. Simple doesn't necessarily have to be a bad word when it comes to fashion, it all just depends on your definition of simple and your comfort level.

In the next few posts, I'll be talking more about my style. What it is (you may already know that), what defines or influence it and how it has evolve over the years.

Stay tuned and have a blessed week.
