Like Rachel Roy, I’m thankful I grew up the way I did.  It made me a hard worker and insightful to other people’s lives.  I was raised to say please and thank you.  To be kind to others.  To work hard and it will pay off.  I’m a firm believer in supporting those who support you.  I’m grateful for everyone who takes the time to read my blog, like my content on Instagram as well as sharing it on Facebook. It means the world to me.  On the heels of my collaboration post on plus size spring trends.  I now present to you the perfect spring suit.

First off I must say these suit is giving me all the feelings.  I’m feeling powerful, beautiful, sexy, confident, and of course a woman.  Oh yeah, I will so comfortable.  The design of this suit is everything I needed.  It’s a perfect combination of form and function.  In other words, it’s a modern-day power suit!

Rachel Roy designed floral-print sailor blazer and matching printed jogger pants have a beautiful wispy, watercolor florals print.  The blazer enlivens this polished overlay, styled with a solid shawl collar and functional flap pockets.  The blazer design also includes a single-button closure, buttoned cuffs, and hits at the hip.  The printed jogger pants flaunt a high-style look and styled with a banded hem and contrasting panels at the sides.  The joggers are mid rise; straight fit through hips and thighs; straight leg.  They also include a front zipper closure and my favorite thing in the whole world, pockets!!!

I know everyone is not comfortable with print on print.  This look can be easily worn separately.  The sailor blazer can be paired with a tee and jeans for a perfect brunch look.  I choose to wear heels but the jogger pants can be worn with some tennies and a blouse for a Sunday Funday look.

I’ll attend the exclusive preview of the Nordstrom x Nike sneaker boutique Chicago located at 55 East Grand Ave.  The space opened to the public today.  I wanted to share a few reasons why you should run downtown and check it out.

One reason to head down to Nordstrom for this exclusive in-store pop is there’ll be 50 pairs of a limited edition Nike Air Max 90 available on Saturday, November 19th.  The sneakers are exclusively designed with laser engraved icons of the toe inspired by The Windy City.  Then on Sunday, November 20th, the boutique with feature the global launch of the Nike Beautiful X Powerful Collection Jacquard.  Nike’s first footwear collection inspired by female athletes and their boundary-breaking accomplishments, the Nike Beautiful X Powerful Collection rethinks four Nike footwear icons and imbues each with the trademark “There is no finish line” declaration.

 

 

This space will offer a great way for women to find sporty and chic Nike looks at the same time.  The blend of the two style are so on trend.  Fashion forward fux furs being displayed right next to the latest tennis show.  I’m here for it!
