Enjoy being swept off your feet by a man that knows and adores you for the wonderful person that you are. That he is so amazing at making clothes has to be the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somewhere-over-the-rainbow#post-1694729 Fri, 15 Jul 2016 05:58:50 +0000 Brooklyn 1694729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have amazing style and so does Tem.

"Is this my life"&nbsp; as a born pessimist I am always waiting for the other shoe to drop.&nbsp; I commissioned Tem to make all of these outfits except for The black and white date night fit.&nbsp; and the kitten skirt 16 &amp; 26.&nbsp; I always think of where I was and where I am now and what an evolution life is.&nbsp; Feeling as if I have lived many lives. This current season is very good.</p> <p>I would dress up for Petco and have done so in the past.&nbsp; Last night or the night of the double rainbow we had no plans and we chased the rainbow for a few hours and then we made it to the art gallery.&nbsp; I was a lovely space but mostly we just sat and talked.&nbsp; </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somewhere-over-the-rainbow#post-1694367 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 20:46:18 +0000 Sally 1694367@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You make a gorgeous couple. As always I love your outfits but especially the black dress with the white underlay.<br /> I really need to improve my WIW locations as you have upped the game too much.<br /> As Rachy says if only i had somewhere to go and be seen. As long as the weather i might have a good location tomorrow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somewhere-over-the-rainbow#post-1694335 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 20:21:43 +0000 Jane 1694335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah!

I got confused by the part where you say, "pray for us as we move forward as I've lost a friend" . You make it sound like somebody died but you are starting a relationship! Awesome!</p> <p>Tem sounds so very very sweet for making clothes for you and being so thoughtful on your first date! Wow! And it sounds like you two get along really well as friends. Oh and, um, he's not bad looking either ;)</p> <p>And really, I can't think of anybody who looks more powerful, happy, and stylish than you LeD. Your outfits are out of this world!</p> <p>Wishing you happiness today! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/somewhere-over-the-rainbow#post-1693956 Thu, 14 Jul 2016 14:03:42 +0000 Ledonna N. 1693956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Family! Longtime no virtually see.</p> <p>We chased a rainbow today. Well, actually yesterday. It was not just one but a double rainbow it must be a sign of things looking up or bright days ahead.</p> </p> <p> I'm just over here singing to myself I can see clearly now the rain<br /> is gone. I can see all obstacles in my way......Its gonna be a bright,<br /> bright sun shiny day. </p> <p> When Obstacles are weighing us down and<br /> we have no choice but to move forward. We can in fact endure and move<br /> through valley experiences. We can choose to clean house and we can<br /> choose to see the Double Rainbow. </p> <p>So, My last post was about going for a stroll with Tem. Tem is my good,good friend who on last Friday asked me out officially foe the next day Saturday. Yes, singing "you dropped a bomb on me baby, you dropped a bomb on me" What? I'll get to that in a bit. </p> <p>Tem and I went to an art gallery last night the Artwork was amazing and of course so was the pictures. Tem is truly a creative muse to me and I him. So the 1st set of pictures will be the ones from the art studio and rainbow chase. Lol</p> <p>What I wore:<br /> pair of denim jeans<br /> tan Combat fashion boots<br /> purple top<br /> Denim vest<br />&nbsp;purple earrings </p> <p>The day before we just hung out at the local supermarkets and enjoyed each others company.</p> <p>What I wore:<br /> Dress from the Fleek Market<br /> Combat fashion boots </p> <p>Saturday night -Official date night</p> <p>Thrift in Time &amp; House of Tem: 1st "official" date </p> <p>So I want to show these outfits that were thrifted and gifted with intentional love and kindness of Kings &amp; Queens.</p> <p>My look was created by (H.O.T.) Tem's House<br /> House of Tem (H.O.T.)<br /> Bouste spikes and roses<br /> Skirt aligatior and tulle </p> <p>Thrift in Time<br /> Denim jacket thrifted<br /> Boots friday sale day on Sassy Thrifters </p> <p>Tem's look thrift and custom made by Tem<br /> Hat custom made by Tem<br /> Pinstripe jacket thrifted<br /> Tuxedo aligatior pants custom made by Tem<br /> Ascot made by Tem<br /> Shoes Double monk straps bought on sale Tem<br /> Tuxedo shirt thrifted by Tem</p> <p>Tem created our 1st date outfits and officially asked me out on this past Saturday. We have been on a journey together for sometime now and it is directly a result of Sassy Thrifters and Tameka Grant. Sister Queen we both love you very much. </p> <p>We, Tem and I are thrifty by existence and we are thankful that the Great I AM saw fit to put us together. He sees me, all of me and I see all of him. </p> <p>Tem and I hung out at an artist crawl the friday before and after that was over he asked me out on an official date. I pretty much said no because we are friends among other things and our group dynamic would shift if we did this. I told Tem I would rather have him as a friend for life than eventually break up and have nothing. </p> <p>Tem had the perfect response. Well now here we are. So I've included garments Tem has made for me in the past and as we move forward pray for us. Our dynamic has shifted.</p> <p>Anyway, what is life but an adventure</p> <p>As always thank you for the comments and viewing. </p> <p>Tem creates all of his own clothes and I love that he took the time to find out what I truly loved and created both of our fits for our 1st date. </p>
