It's the "I have a dream" look

Whether African-American or not, whether American or not, everyone is familiar with that quote said by none other than Martin Luther King (by the way you guys are in for a good read :D). Yeah sometimes we joke around and say "I have a dream that school will end and summer will come," but today's outfit is inspired by the dream in your heart and following through with it. Everyone has a dream, everyone wants something and it's kept, as cheesy as it sounds, in everyone's heart. So if you have a broken heart, mend it. If you have a lost heart, focus and find what you're looking for. If you fear that when you say  "I have a dream to do what's in my heart" won't come true, kill that fear and just follow what's in there and you'll get there. DREAM BIG. And NEVER I mean NEVER think you can't achieve that dream. Well that's my motivational rant for the week!
 But as every outfit comes with a story, this week I decided wearing this loose-fit flowy heart covered shirt and pattern blocking with one of my favorite floral scarves that I haven't worn for quite some time. Now let's time talk about this new item in the closet committee...first off, that maxi dress was too cheap not to buy; I'm enjoying how though it's like a maxi, the slits let you add a dash of color. A part of me was not sure if I should do boots or gladiators since it is a maxi but the slits let you work with either.

Well whether it was the motivational rant or the outfit or even both, I hope you enjoyed this week's post and dressing it up because life's too short to dress boring!

For the next few months, you'll just be hearing (or reading) me go on about how much I love this weather because for us Floridians, when it gets 60 degrees...we bring out our cup of hot cocoa and tell ourselves that we need to have pumpkin spice lattes (when we all know that we really don't because it's still not cold enough).

Okay, onto the outfit! Today's outfit is actually a favorite of mine because of how easy it is to put together but also because of how vibrant it is yet still staying with the fall theme. I guess we can say we're getting into "sweater weather" and I actually don't wear this one too often but I bring it out with this outfit because it blends so well with the colors of the floral scarf and adds a pop to the gray and white chiffon polk-a-dot shirt. Because of the length of the shirt and sweater (or long cardigan as some call it), I topped the outfit off with my boots of course but you could certainly do flats or even converse or those vans styled shoes ( I don't know the proper terminology so vans styled is what I'm going with). Well I hope you guys have a lovely week enjoying this weather and everything about it from the cute outfits, the cute instagram pictures we take of our lattes, oh and not to mention the cute stylebyfj posts that'll be coming up :D
