Summer is one of the best times to party!

The reason being that in the Summer, it’s hotter outside.

I need for my speakers to be representing themselves the best way possible when gallivanting in these streets.

Not only will there be more indoor parties, but there will also be lots of outdoor parties as well.

At the time of this post, we are going through a pandemic so that may not be the case this Summer, but we can dream.

In the Summer, a lot of you ladies may be excited to bring out all of your Summer dresses.

There are so many options that can fall under that. So I styled looks that gave me a Summer vibe.

My goal in the summer is to look hot without being hot, lol.

Hope you get some inspiration from these looks for your next summer party.

Frumpy and dumpy wardrobe items are the weakest links and it’s time to say GOODBYE!

I am so happy to see that some many of you are back outside.

All my speakers out there have seemed to ditch giving speeches to parlaying at beaches.

I’m here for it!

But you cannot take your RONA couture with you when doing this.

So I have shared 5 good outfit ideas as replacements for your RONA couture.

It’s time to put way…
⛔️ old baseball caps
⛔️ sweats/joggers
⛔️ fuzzy slippers
⛔️ baggy old t-shirts
⛔️ athleisure uniforms

Dig in the back of your closets and drawers and pull out all the dusty stuff you could not wear during RONA.

Play dress up, it’s ok to do this as an adult.
Make sure everything fits properly and make proper adjustments if not.

It’s time to get cute again, ladies.

All I see on my feeds are airplanes and beaches.

All my Rich Auntie speakers seem to be busy planning to be on or parlaying on beaches and I am here for it but…

You cannot be looking a mess on your trip or IG photos while on the trip.

So I wanted to help make sure you are properly equipped fashion wise with the must have items you need for your panaremic getaways.

You need to pack these 7 things to ensure you are looking cute on your trip…

✅ Cute Dress
✅ Swimsuit or 2
✅ Stunner Shades
✅ A cute coverup
✅ Comfortable shoes
✅ A cute hat
✅ A lightweight sweatshirt or jacket

Of course you will need more than these items for the trip but at least with these items you can get a couple of cute IG photos and some good eye candy for BAE (if you have one that is with you or looking to catch one for the future).

Hopefully, this is helpful and if so tag me in your getaway thirst trap IG photos, lol

Are you planning a Rich Auntie getaway?

Let me know in the comments where you are going.

A little effort makes can make a world of a differ

A little effort makes can make a world of a difference when getting dressed.

To my speakers out there, I know you may (or may not) put effort into your looks on stage but you also should keep that same energy off of it.

I know I often speak about how the way you dress effects entities outside of yourself, for example how others perceive you when speaking on stage.

But the most important reason for showing up daily for yourself when getting dressed is Me, Myself and I (me referring to yourself).

If you are not happy with how you dress yourself daily, it can have many side effects…

👎🏾 You avoid going out to certain places
👎🏾 It kills your mood
👎🏾 Lack of self-confidence in public
👎🏾 Others do not perceive you the way you prefer to be perceived

There is power in getting dressed, which is why I stress it so much.

No one should go out everyday having to experience any of the above things mentioned.

If this is you half-a$$ dressing yourself every day, it’s time to make a change so that…

👍🏾 You always willing and ready to go out and be seen anywhere.
👍🏾 You always feel and look amazing when you get dressed.
👍🏾 You are confident about how you’re dressed out in these streets regularly.
👍🏾 You are not concerned with how other perceive you because you know you’re that deal.

Let’s make this happen sis!

The first step you need to make is clicking the link in my bio to take my style quiz to define exactly what your style personality is.

This will help you build a wardrobe that truly reflects your personality, which is key.

Tomorrow is going to be too late sis, I’ma need you to click that link today, like right now 💨💨

Outside is back open, it’s time to get dressed.
