Hi Fashion Fabters, 

It’s been quite the busy last couple of weeks. September as you may know is fashion week— so I’ve been quite busy trying to attend events and keep up with all of the fashion week festivities both local and afar. Today’s OOTD was inspired by the handbag I am wearing in today’s look. A sewing friend of mine designed this custom purse a few weeks back and I fell in love with it instantly. I love the uniqueness of it along with the houndstooth aspect of the design. Make sure you check out her blog and designs at www.itsmelaniedarling.blogspot.com. I’ve got to tell you that I was pretty brave to rock an all black everything look in Florida in September. While many of you may be experiencing much cooler weather in transition to the fall season, I still haven’t said my official goodbyes to summer. I’m certainly looking forward to sending my welcome greetings to autumn soon. Thanks for stopping by. Until next time…..Be Bold. Be Fabulous. Be You!
