REDValentino - Embroidered Cotton … curated on LTK

My daughter snapped this pic of me last night on our way home from a family picnic. I’m kind of loving this slower paced life. I spent all afternoon yesterday cooking and prepping for our picnic dinner and then we spread everything out on a hillside under the trees and watched the bunnies hopping around and ate outside, it was so nice. Nothing else to rush off too- just together as a family. I just got this dress and it’s perfect for summer. Halter dresses are going to be big this year and while this one is a bit of a splurge, I’ve linked a bunch of my favorite options for you here in different price points from designer like this to more affordable choices. Also linked again is my favorite, softest, most comfy denim jacket! http://liketk.it/2P1po #liketkit @liketoknow.it #StayHomeWithLTK #LTKspring

I’ve linked some of my favorite Black owned brands and I hope you will continue to support these brands and others I mentioned on the blog Wednesday and this morning- when we buy Black owned brands direct it is a wonderful thing but when we buy them from retailers we send the message that Black owned brands WILL sell in their store and deserve shelf space. It’s so hard for minority owned, especially Black owned brands to get distribution so we as consumers need to show demand for the brands we love with our spending dollars! http://liketk.it/2Q4hf #liketkit @liketoknow.it
