The Bath Robe

Posted on by The Style Cake

It’s Friday y’all!! This was a short work week but it felt extremely long. Like I can’t tell you how happy I am about this weekend. Weekends are never weekends because I’m always working. I needed some comfort because it’s that uncomfortable time of the month (insert eye roll emoji) and I’m honestly not in the mood to wear anything more than a robe lol. 

Today my look is inspired completely by that feeling. Yea well, I still dressed but when I get home I’m throwing a robe on for real! I found this thrifted robe online and fell all the way in love. The print fits right into a smooth summer/fall transition and the colors pop! I’m wearing this robe as a long cardigan because with style, you can do those things. Make things fit and work for your wardrobe. Now I won’t get on here and preach today cause it’s Friday but always remember to be brave enough to experiment. Grab pieces you love and repurpose them so they work to add that perfect bit of “pow” to your outfit! Take a peek at my pics and let me know what you think! Then go on a thrifting mission to find a bomb robe to wear as a cardigan lol. Happy Friday!

A Pop of Gold

Posted on by The Style Cake

I apologize in advance for this post being so late and short. It’s Friday and I know you guys are ready to get out to enjoy your weekend like I certainly am. Don’t worry, next week I’m totally going to make up for it lol. So I wanted to be casual but still at the boast of a dress. 

Originally, this dress was maxi length but true my stylist nature I believe in making pieces work for me. I love a good contrast so my cardigan is a maxi cardigan to contrast the shortness of my dress. Believe me, I can’t have two maxi pieces on at this point. I’ll explain why in a totally different post. Since we’re finally experiencing my cardigan is sheer and doesn’t add any warmth (temperature wise) but it warms up my look with the undertone. My shoes add glamorous features to my look. My choker is actually a headband that I got from Purple Love. Again, I did what I needed to turn this look into a “pop of gold”! 

Til Monday Cupcakes! 💋

Casual Friday: Sophisticated Denim

Friday!! It’s my favorite only and repeat holiday of the year lol. I love Fridays because they’re not only the beginning of the weekend but usually everyone is in a good mood because they have the next couple of days to themselves. The world just seems happier on Fridays! I love to do casual looks that can be worn in the office to show how you can be stylishly casual in a work environment. Since we all want to go enjoy our weekend, I’ll be brief.

My hair style inspired my entire look. I’m wearing a simple side bun and I decided to wear my black glasses. The shoes I’m wearing are from Justfab’s Luxe line (when they had it) and it’s my first time wearing them. They’re real suede and the color is so bold and pops against all the black and white pattern in the look. My jeans and jacket add edge and my maxi cardigan contributes a sleek, diva like effect. I’m wearing a black and white print bodysuit with a black tank underneath (for modesty). What do you guys think? I’ll be back here Monday, until then enjoy your weekend!!
