Flower Power

Nordstrom jacket, TJMaxx top, Nordstrom Rack jeans, Chain ℅ Stella & Dot

Flower Power people! I love this jacket and it's currently on sale at Nordi's so grab it if you're feeling it. I pretty much avoid wearing pink ( think red head that blushes easy, enough said) but the balance of retro sporty meets ladylike is just too irresistible for even this red head.

Florals on stripes

Ring ℅ Stella & Dot 

Kimono gown and striped dress - Cotton On, Heels - Steve Madden at TJMaxx

My little helper eating the candy instead of putting it out

And that's a wrap…

There's something about stripes that speak to Summer. Due to work I haven't been able to workout for quite a while so I'm not 'Feeling Myself' right now. Yes I totally just made that reference - if you have no idea what I'm talking about check out the video for Beyonce and Nikki Minaj collab. I added the Kimono style gown to cover myself up a little but it also adds a different vibe to the fitted dress. How do you wear your stripes?

Losing A Loved One

I know I usually do a Jewels of the week post on Monday's but my Uncle's funeral is today so I wanted to share one of my favorite pictures of us. He was an extremely kind man. My cousins and I would spend endless Summer days in his pool laughing and being silly.  Here's a Hidden Word from the Baha'i Faith that I will be reading today.  "O Son of The Supreme! I have made death a messenger of joy to thee, Wherefore dost thou grieve? I made the light to shed on thee its splendor. Why dost thou veil thyself therefrom?" - Baha'u'llah, Hidden Words RIP Amoo Tooraj  You can also find Polished Practical on Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest

The Giving Keys

There's nothing much simpler than a key hanging from a chain, yet with words like 'Fearless' and 'Courage' this simplicity becomes profoundly beautiful. "The giving keys" make a great gift ( hello Mother's Day), and have an amazing purpose behind their creation. People transitioning out of homelessness are employed by The Giving Keys to give them more opportunities. Check out one of my favorite blogs 'What Courtney Wore' to see how Courtney Kerr styled her giving keys. What inspiring message would you choose?
