Happy New Year!! I hope everyone is doing well and life is treating you fabulous. It’s truly a blessing to see another year and I’m grateful to continue on with my purpose here on earth. I wanted to share a cute and funny story about my daughter and how my blogged got hacked by her. So at times while I’m out running around with errands and boredom strikes for my 8 year old, I Iet her use my phone to keep her occupied.  Normally she loves to play games, but somehow she found out about the Polyvore app and decided to explore its capabilities. My Polyvore app is linked to WordPress (the blogging platform I use), so anytime I decide to create a new outfit, it will automatically post to my blog here. One day I decided to come here just to browse my overall work and when I saw all the outfits on my page that had been created my mouth dropped! I was soooo impressed with what my daughter had put together and even the titles were catchy.

The first look “Mommy’s Date Night Look” she decides to style an outfit that would be in her eyes appropriate for a date night. An array of pinks is something I never would have considered, but I think I could rock this in a heartbeat. I couldn’t stop laughing at the wine phone case lol. I thought it was the coolest. Now when I saw the men’s outfit and the money clip I was rolling completely with laughter. Not only did she put together the perfect causal outfit, but she made sure she added the money to suit the date night occasion. I think in her eyes, if you are dating my mommy you better come correct with money on the first date.

Now I think by the third post “I Made This Myself Its Me Alauna” she wanted to officially introduced herself to let you know my mom is not the brains behind this post I am. I love all the items chosen in this collection. The two piece outfit is adorable and it reminded me of prom or something worn at a cocktail party. Clearly, once I saw it was from a bridal shop, I knew she was trying to slip a hint in lol. The phone case and purse, definitely works as pink is both of our favorite colors. Then to top it off she listed a Kylie cosmetics lip color which I think is perfect for this season. I didn’t even know she was aware of Kylie Cosmetics or even who is Kylie Jenner .

Last but not least, one of my favorite post by my daughter was the “Now This looks Like Beauty Right.” I used to be so afraid of wearing floral back in the day. It always reminded me of my grandmother’s table cloth and my goodness, I would never want to be a walking table cloth. That just isn’t cute lol. Over the years I’ve learned to embrace the floral print and be creative with styling against it. So when I saw the skirt, I was in love with the pop of colors and the cobalt blue top she paired it with..too cute. In addition, I love the variations of eye lash print fashion throughout the accessories.

After discovering the uploads, I confronted my daughter and she was so excited her work was being shown to the world. I complimented her on her creation of various styled outfits and accessories. I wanted to assure her she was not in trouble, and it brought joy to my world seeing her following in her mom’s footsteps. This post taught me a valuable lesson. Never underestimate kids and continue to tap into you kids talents early.  I encourage staying engaged with their passions, gifts, and embracing that journey as it continues to develop.

XOXO,
