Takin' It Out to the End of Summer with Tidestore

Love the look of the leopard scarf with the basic white tee.

I love summer.  I’m sad to see it go.  While some may throw in their beach towels when Labor Day strikes, I’m “that girl” who refuses to pack away her shorts, and who will push the frostbitten limits, by wearing sandals until the first snowflakes fall.

I am blessed in so many ways.  I never take a moment for granted.  I try to treat the smallest of gestures or occurrences – like a perfectly sunny, warm day with a gentle breeze -  the same as I would meeting someone very talented and influential whom I admire.  (I would say, winning the lottery, but I haven’t been so lucky!)  I also believe that we all were born with gifts; gifts that when we tap into them, become our passion and further ignite our fire for living and inspire us to strive for greater heights while positively affecting those around us.

I have been blessed with the ability to express myself with words and invoke emotion in others.  Every time I achieve touching someone’s heart or striking a chord within a soul, it moves me.  It’s a surreal experience.  There’s nothing I would rather do.

One of my recent blessings is that I am grateful that Tidestore.com has chosen me to walk out and about wearing some of their trendy pieces that blend well into my existing wardrobe.  Materialistic yes – but we can’t go out on the town naked!!!  So I show, and wear, and go forth with style promulgated by those in the fashion industry that exude the talent for presenting people in a way that reflects society’s edginess and accentuates self-expression!

One of my favorite designers is Michael Kors. I believe in accessorizing outfits with quality bags and shoes that will last a lifetime. Here I'm pairing it with the Tidestore leopard print scarf, SkinnyTees white t-shirt and Michael Kors brown leather bag.

Yes, I literally came in the door and threw my brown Michael Kors bag down on the carpet to snap a photo of my outfit with the Tidestore light denim skirt and chocolate brown Manolo sandals. Fashion has to be functional too!

Tidestore sent me two pieces from their early fall collection:  a fantastic leopard print scarf http://www.tidestore.com/product/Customized-Chiffon-All-Matched-Long-Leopard-Print-Scarf-10864573.html that will accessorize me year round and add that edge to many outfits begging for something special, and a swingy light denim skirt http://www.tidestore.com/product/Hot-Selling-Luxury-Slim-Big-Hem-Jeans-Skirt-10924208.html that falls above my knees and lets me feel like a lady, especially when I put on a pair of heels with it to go.

Clockwise starting at top: white t-shirt by SkinnyTees, Michael Kors brown leather bag, Tidestore light denim skirt, Manolo Blahnik brown studded sandals, and Tidestore leopard print scarf

This is how I wore them:  I took my own plain white form-fitting t-shirt from SkinnyTees (because I can’t stand anything baggy) and paired it with the cute denim skirt from Tidestore that’s all swingy.  I added my own Michael Kors brown leather bag and my chocolate brown Manolo Blahnik studded sandals.  This segued to the animal print scarf that I threw around my neck to break up the solids monotony and play up the traditional can’t-go-wrong classic white t-shirt and jeans look, which I feminized via way of the skirt and form-fitting tee.

So I’m the girl that’s wearing white (t-shirts) after Labor Day who you’ll see defying the shorter days wearing short skirts, but that’s just how I roll! 

Oh, and congratulations to Nicole M. for guessing I would get the animal print scarf!  She gets a set of TheLadyinRedBlog signature wine charms as I published in my part one blog for some fashion fun!  Cheers!
