Memorial Day Weekend with the Goddess!!

This weekend Pardon Our Style had the privilege to style our Beautiful client and sister, Sophia Powell for the Lewis Wedding in Houston Texas! 

Sophia is naturally beautiful so pretty much anything we would've chosen for this second time around mother to be would look gorgeous. We know that Sophia loves bright colors and bright like the sunshine also definitely describes Sophia's personality. 

Pardon Our Style wanted to choose something our client would feel stylish and definitely comfortable in especially while pregnant. So we choose this beautiful Peach goddess/maxi dress long & flowing and of course we had to expose her toned arms, and that cute baby bump! Our motto for our clients is to help them find there feel stylish self inside & out. I truly believe we did just that with Sophia Powell. 

Styleluxe2016... Global edition

The Style Luxe fashion show was a global affair!! The night was filled with women from all over the world, with one objective, to empower one another!!! As you know fashion not only brings women together, but allows you the opproutinity to swipe beauty secrets and admire the women right next to you!!!! 

The ladies of PardonOurStyle were so grateful for the opproutinity to be part of an amazing event. We jumped at the chance to style the Style Luxe promotional photoshoot  as well as the fashion show...We partnered with 

Nadine Ford of @_glam_sqaud and Natasha PrettyWings Wright of 

@thediamondbutterfly. 

The ladies wanted an African inspired photoshoot, because the Style Luxe fashion was to feature all 7 continents. Natea and I were fascinated with the concept! We decided to stay away from bold prints, because that would be to obvious and the norm. PardonOurStyle is far from average. We aim to make a fashion statement. So we decided to go with solid bold colors, and African accessories from Loreal of @goddessfashion factory. 

This was the outcome!!! These are behind the scenes pictures.  

I believe we captured the the beauty of sisterhood. What do you think? 

Our next agenda was gathering looks for each continent. We reached out to @twisted vintage, and @flarecouture.
