#MyStyleJournal: The Bryant Blazer By Lane Bryant

February 21, 2019

Hey babes, happy Friday Eve!

I know for a fact that we all have specific articles of clothing that at one time or another we shied away from. Most times, it wasn’t that we didn’t want to rock those items; it was just that they weren’t flattering in our opinion. Honestly, I have been there about several different articles of clothing; pants, jeans, and turtlenecks have all been on my list of personal fashion don’ts, but over time I learned to rock them with confidence. Oh and, today I am adding the blazer to the list of personal fashion don’ts that are now must-haves.

 

My issue with blazers has always been about finding one that wasn’t boxy because even when wearing clothes that are considered masculine the goal is to still be sexy and curvy too. Another issue that I had was the length of the sleeves, they were almost always too darn long, and I refused to look like I borrowed the blazer from my brother. Also, at one point in my life, my breast was much larger, and they made sizing problematic, who wants to look as though they are about to recreate a scene from The Incredible Hulk… Not the kid!

Now don’t get me wrong, I always saw the potential that blazers had in terms of styling, I couldn’t find one that worked for me. It wasn’t until I begin seeing all of my blogger boos rocking the Bryant Blazer that I decided to give blazers another try. And listen, sis, I am so glad that I did because this blazer is everything I ever wanted in a blazer. Yes, it has a bit of a masculine vibe with the faux double breast look but it complimented my curves, and I felt so feminine and sexy.

This is not a post about fashion. This is a friendly reminder that the way you style your life determines how successful you are and the influence you offer the world. How you style your life connects you to your purpose and living your purpose draws you closer to God. Your style can’t be mimicked or  matched; it is a muscle only you can flex.

This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly th This is God’s doing! I still remember vividly the way I felt when I found out I was pregnant with my son. I remember the day I planned to abort him. I damn near remember every moment that I have shared with him over the last 23 years and every moment I had with God on his behalf. As we prepare for yet another amazing moment, I am grateful. 

Grateful that God loved me enough to bless me with this joyful black boy. Grateful that he was patient as I grew from girl to woman while being his mother. Grateful that he inspired me to push past every roadblock placed in my path. 

@youknowitszaydoe, I am so proud of you and I love you far beyond any words, actions, or material items, black man. I once called you sun because you shined like one but truthfully you out shine the sun, son. i pray that you receive and cherish every good and perfect thing God has for you. I pray you continue to pursue your purpose with passion. Most of all I pray that and abundance of love and light surround you and that despite life challenges you never cower in the face of adversity.
