HELLO THERE! || STYLING FLORALS IN SUMMER

Hello my lovelies hope we are all doing well? I know I’ve been gone for a while now, I hoped to come back earlier but life happens and also I was preparing for my dissertation which I’m glad is all behind me, never been stressed by a professor in my entire life, gosh!, that’s another story for another day. Did you know your girl is two degrees hotter; yes hotter because it definitely isn’t easy, so please put some respect on my name.
Anyway back to my absence, my apologies for that, being an adult is really hard but I’m back and I’d gradually going to get in the routine of blogging. For those that checked up on me, God bless your heart and I really appreciate it. This dress was love at first sight when I tried it at the store, it’s so free on the body considering that it is summer and the heat wave is just too much, this dress is perfect for the weather and stylish at the same time. I’ve accessorized with my lace up heels, bag and shades to tie the whole outfit together. Don’t you just love the ensemble? Even while I was away I still checked a few blogs to see what you all were up to, now that I’m back I’d get back to stopping by your blogs. Don’t forget to comment and drop your blog links as well in the comment section. 
Just a reminder The Style Fanatic is open to promotions, collaborations, adverts and lots more, for more details click here and let’s talk business. Thanks for always supporting TSF.

Talk to you in my next post, be you, be safe, be kind, stay blessed and remain humble.
