Hi Beautiful People,
It’s been a rainy couple of days; but with the right piece of jewelry, it always make the day seem bright and sunny!
Delicate Earrings work with long hair
I remember getting my ears pierced for the first time, my mother took me to Sears when I was five with my grandmother. It’s in my blood and I don’t feel complete without wearing some piece of jewelry.
I had the opportunity to style for you these beautiful Oval Garnet and Diamond Shell Earrings in .925 Sterling Silver from Angara.com. Any lady on your Christmas gift-giving list would not mind getting these earrings. They are currently on sale for $119. You can purchase them and pay for them in two or three monthly installments.

I wore them in my second hole and it again showed the versatility. The Garnet in the Angara earrings is very clear and not cloudy at all.
JT Style
These earrings are versatile and can meet all fashion needs. I can wear them with a nice dress for a more elegant look. Or I can be more casual, wearing them with jeans and a sweater, playing in the backyard.
Enjoying a Cool Fall Day!
Classic elegance at its best from the minute I opened the box.

Who is Angara?
Angara is a family-owned business that puts the customer first, because they deserve the very best.
One great feature about Angara is that you have a wide-range of options available to you when making your decisions, from metals to gemstone quality. For example, if your favorite gemstone is ruby, you can look through the many ruby pieces that are available. After finding the right piece, you can then select what metal you want it to be – anywhere from Sterling Silver to Platinum. You can also select the grade quality of the gemstone – from good, to better, to heirloom quality. Of course, selecting these options will effect the final price of the piece; but you can work it into your budget

Hello Beautiful People,
I recently had the opportunity to receive a custom t-shirt. I thought to myself about the many options available to me, I selected the design in the picture below.
You say, why did you choose that? Well, the thought of the love I have for the man who God sent to me, my husband. The design was so me and I really liked the color.
I paired the T-shirt with a black-and-white shirt and wore it to church this past weekend. I thought it was very cool with a printed skirt. The complete outfit looked well put together – a dressy causal outfit that was a unexpected twist. Not to mention adding my Dooney and Bourke handbag for extra style and pizazz.
The T-shirt is made of 100% Cotton. It is well-constructed and the quality of the cotton is very durable. I can see wearing it for a long while without any worries of it falling apart. I will be looking to add more these T-shirt into my closet.
My Custom Shirt
I also styled the custom T-shirt with my Isaac Mizrahi cotton lace skirt and Calvin Klein peep-toe wedge booties. The look is chic.

Hi Beautiful People,
I hope you are having a wonderful day. It has been a great day but it is very hot right now in my neck of the woods.
On these sunny warm days, I enjoy wearing mostly dresses because of their ease and coolness.
Last summer, my hubby and I traveled to San Francisco to visit my Uncle. We went to Macy’s and found a great deals on a couple of dress, including this ‘To Tommy from Zooey’ by Tommy Hilfiger. Zooey Deschanel team up with Tommy Hilfiger to design a line of dresses. I was able to find this one on the clearance rack, plus I had a coupon. What a great combination! It retailed for $139, but I only paid $35 for it. Oh yeah, what a deal!!

This side-zip dress is 100% Polyester and is fully line. In the photo above, I wore the dress to church last year. And in contrast, the photo below shows how I styled it this year.

Macy’s produced a television commercial for the new line, although my dress wasn’t featured. This dress is definitely a keeper because it so different and oh so girly.

The dress kinda brings out my inner cheerleader. The stripes in the skirt part of the dress are so flattering.

I am including my style essentials to show you how I how styled the dress. I have worn it on several occasions, with my Santa Fe Indian Choker, an Italian Lire bracelet, an Italian Lire watch, and a pearl bracelet. The accessories are endless when assembled with this dress. I almost forgot my Bob’s that I styled for Independence Day.

I can see myself transitioning into fall and winter in tights with this one.

This was such a good find for a great price in San Francisco. It always pays to look through the racks because you never know what jewel is in the crowd. Leave a comment below to tell me how you would wear it

Hi Beautiful people!
With temperatures reaching almost 100 degrees, it has been all about the natural fibers because comfort and chicness go hand in hand.
I wanted to try a skort that had a unique style, instead of the standard skirt in the front and shorts in the back.
But why a skort?
A skort is a short-skirt combo that works well if you are active and when you don’t have to wear a slip or a shaper.
In years back, I had a design like that but it was not comfortable and the fabric was very heavy. But this Summer, I added two skorts that offered a modern design that has become a workhorse in my closet.
JT in the Skort
The first one is a blue skort from designer Susan Graver, whose apparel line is sold exclusively on QVC. In the photo above, I paired it with a button-down blouse and sandals for a causal Monday outfit. But I believe that it is a wardrobe gem because it can be worn as a sporty look, to the office, to church or walking in a parade. I liked how this skort so much, I went back and purchased a second one in white.
This skort is 95% cotton/5% spandex; with an inner layer of 95% cotton/5% spandex. It is breathable and comfortable and is priced at $45.00.
The second one is a polka dot skort, shown below, also works well for church or a day in the office. This skort, also designed by Graver for QVC, is 95% polyester and 5% spandex. This fabric combination is what she called Liquid knit. Although it is not a natural fiber; I thought the stylish print could be paired with a number of tops and blouses from my closet. The QVC price is $46.00 and you may catch it on easy pay.

The secret to the skort is the shorts underneath. I can be confident that if the wind blows or I have to bend that that nothing is showing. It is a beautiful thing to have the modesty intact.
Shorts underneath skort
Another feature is that the skort is an official skirt all the way around (not half skirt and half shorts in the back) with the shorts attached underneath.

Side view
Versatility comes to mind when I think of Susan Graver’s skort designs because they can be worn many different ways.
If you are looking for a stylish alternative to a skort, check out the ones from Susan Graver. Let me know what you think of it or how you would style it.

Hi Beautiful People!
I love music and I enjoy dancing. I can be almost asleep; but if I hear music, I wake right up and am ready to move.
Blogger Event Salsa Night at Majestic Studios
Dancing gets me moving and it is one of my exercise habits that keeps me in shape.
My hubby and I was invited to attend a Salsa night of dance and fun at Majestic Dance Studios.
I didn’t know what to expect, however I thought it would be fun. My husband confesses that he has two left fee;t but he enthusiastically agreed to attend.
When I dance, I like my clothes to be comfortable but chic. I choose natural fiber fabrics that are breathable or fabrics that wick away moisture. I knew I would get a workout so I wanted to be prepared.
When we walked into the studio, everyone was so nice and welcoming. Alex Burodko, owner of the Majestic Studios, said that he is living the American dream and enjoying every minute of it. Mr. Burodko and the other instructors really gave us so much encouragement and confidence.
Ladies lined up on one side of the room, while the men stood on the other side. We would learn a dance step and then practice with our partner. This method made it feel easy and fun for everyone at the same time. No fear here!
JT and hubby going over the dance steps
When my hubby and I practiced our moves, his eyes lit up with glee because he was actually dancing.
The instructors, Joe Elvis Alway-Baker, Angie Brooks and Alex Burodko were great at showing my hubby and I how to move in time with each other. The instructors took time to show us how to feel confident on the dance floor and that dancing is not just for the professionals.
Were we treated to two performances that were awesome.
Beautiful dancing by Josef Scherer and Loraine Ebel.
The second performance was high-spirited full of energy by Alex Borudko and Angie Brooks.
This was a great night out with the hubby. It was different because it going out on a date and dancing. I know we will be back to learn more dance moves.
Thank you Majestic Dance Studios for a night of fun and I can show some cool moves on the dance floor.
“Thank You” Rose given to me for attending the Salsa Night.

Some people only bother to take care of their appearance for a special occasion. However, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with trying to look good every day. In fact, you should! You might not think that it makes a difference, but the way you look gives people an idea of you, who you are and what you like. If you walk around in scruffy clothes looking worse for wear 90% of the time, it won’t make a difference when you do get dressed up! I understand that getting dressed up every day can take too much time, so use these style tips to help:
Always Accessorize
Accessorizing is a must, whatever the occasion. Even if you’re just going to the shop, I want you to make the effort to accessorize. Sometimes, all you need is a good watch and a pair of plain studs. It all depends on where you’re going and the kind of look you’re trying to create. Somebody who wanted to look boho for the day would layer up lots of jewelry, whereas somebody who wanted to look more polished would be more selective.

Make Sure You’re Clean and Crease Free
Your clothes should always be clean and free from creases if you want to make a good impression. Even for everyday wear, this is important. Don’t wear something and hope that the creases will just fall out or nobody will notice the stain – you never know who you might meet! What do you want your clothes to say about you?
Wear Dark Colors to Project Authority
Darker colors look more authoritative than lighter colors, so even if you’re just going casual, wear dark. You’ll feel much more hip and people will likely treat you that way too! Wear dark all the way from your designer t-shirt to your Ecco shoes. There’s a reason people love wearing black!
Include Different Textures for Depth
One of the worst things you can do when dressing is fail to use enough texture. Wearing clothes of all the same or similar textures can drown you and stop you from looking your best. Include different textures to add depth to your outfit and look more interesting. You don’t want to look like a charity shop threw up on you, so be clever in the way you do it. Tutorials are online if you’re not sure where to begin.
Layer Carefully
Layer up your clothing so you can easily take pieces off and put them on if the weather changes. Not only is layering great for different kinds of weather, you’ll also look more fashionable. Think Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen as you put your outfits together, but a little less homeless.
Make Sure You’re Comfortable
Finally, you should be comfortable in your everyday clothes. You want to look good, but you don’t want to hurt yourself. If you’re uncomfortable it’ll show all over your face. Wear training shoes with dressy clothes if you have to and make it work.
I hope you enjoyed these tips!
