Chic Pantry: TANGERINE DREAM

Ok so it's I truly feel like I live in HOTLANTA! I overslept because my son decided it was too cold and turned down the AC causing me to be in a deep sleep wayyy past the time I should've been up. And did I forget to tell you that I also woke up with a mane that only King Mufasa would be proud of *YIKES*. So a french braid, and maxi skirt later I was ready to face the great outdoors.

I actually only really started wearing bright colors recently. Caribbean people as well as Latin people LOVE COLORS. It's a proven fact!! LOL. Come to any one of my family functions and you will be welcomed by a bunch of smiling people wearing tons of color...and gold jewelry :-)

I bought this skirt last summer, but only popped the tag off today. Maxi skirts are kind of my go-to in the summer along with cut-off shorts. The tangerine color of this pleated skirt is a great pop for the summers when you have that good tan (which clearly I was born with) LOL. The three layers give the skirts a lot of movement and makes it a definite head turner as you walk by.

I found this turquoise handbag while GoodWill Hunting a few weeks ago, and was immediately drawn to the color, size, and the fact that it can be worn as both a cross-body (freeing up your hands for times when you have to cross the street with a 4 and 5yr old #MYLife) or as a clutch when you remove the strap *score*.

Paired with these Tory Burch thong sandals in the same tangerine color balances out the whole look.

Quick look to stay cool during the warmer weather. I really don't care for anything form fitting in the daytime because it just gets too hot and ain't nobody got time for that... LOL
