Last month, I had an opportunity to attend a blogging networking event organized by TheMovePhilly.com. These events are a great opportunity for other bloggers in the Philadelphia area to come together, have a drink, and establish relationships.

During the event, I had an opportunity to meet and chat with a new blogger, Kira Keys.
Straight out of Philadelphia, Kira is the creator of “Sing Pray Shop,” a blog dedicated to her favorite leisure activities.

On a weekly basis, Kira updates her blog with new fashion finds, some in which are from her personal wardrobe. I personally love when Kira shows off some of her favorite statement pieces. For example, her big flappy hats, turban, or flashy jewelry.

So, when you get a chance, stop by Sing Pray Shop for some fashion inspiration!

Congrats Kira! Keep up the great work!

With a season full of snow, ice, and freezing temperatures, everyone is anxiously waiting for the first day of spring to arrive. Luckily, we had the chance to catch up with our friend Byron before winter officially ends.

While transitioning between seasons, Byron likes to think cautiously about his attire. So, he decided to wear his newly purchased camouflage pants outside the house. If you didn’t know, there are different ways to style camo pants. You should consider solid color sweatshirts, button-ups, and sweaters for the perfect combination. These all look great with camo.

For Byron, he dressed up his pants with a denim shirt, bubble vest, and leather gloves. Worn casually, this is the perfect outfit for a night out on the town, especially after work. Byron agrees, “You could wear this for your winter nights out in the city. It’s good to have layering options.”

Overall, Byron put together a great outfit! It’s very casual, yet stylish at the same time.

The Lifestyle: Atlantic City Fashion Week

A little over a week ago, I had the pleasure of attending Season 7 of Atlantic City Fashion Week in Atlantic City, NJ.

Created back in 2011, the event itself caters to a wide audience of fashion enthusiasts and supporters alike. Just imagine a week’s worth of fashion shows, seminars, celebrity appearances, retail events and industry parties. Sounds like a great time, right?

Well, if you came to expect a great show, you left satisfied. I actually had the opportunity of attending the “Ready to Wear” runway show at Balley’s Hotel. Of course, I went into the event with high expectations, and left with a greater appreciation for fashion within my home state. From the professional models, to the designer clothes, the event itself was pure amazing! I left wanting more.

You can check out some photos from the event below! For more information about the week itself, head over to atlanticcityfashionweek.net.

To my friend Mother Nature,

I love what you have done with winter this season. For one, the snow has been thicker than ever, and I can’t thank you enough for all the extra days home from work. However, I have been waiting anxiously spring. Why? Considering it’s March, and I’m still wearing velvet blazers outside is kind of awkward. So, what can be do to speed up this process?

If I could actually write a letter to Mother Nature, I would have her bring Spring tomorrow. Wishful thinking, right? Well, if you live in New Jersey like myself, you know that we have at least three more weeks of cold weather.

With all that being said, I found some time to put together another winter outfit before the weather turns. Today, I decided to pair an old turtle neck and blazer together. Purchased for $40 from ASOS, this blazer was at the top of my Christmas list two years ago. Ironically, this blazer has been worn only three times.

The same can be said about the white turtle neck as well. It seems like I only wore this sweater to holiday events and parties. Needless to say, these two items look great together, especially with the grey skinny jeans and black loafers.

What do you think about this look? Is it appropriate enough for winter? Leave us some comments below.
