Happy Monday, and Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day! Martin Luther King Jr. is one of my favorite activists, and I always loved learning more about him growing up. I’ve really enjoyed seeing everyone taking the time to reflect on his legacy today. A few of my favorite Martin Luther King Jr. quotes are:
- “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
- “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
- “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase.”
- “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”

I don’t know if y’all have noticed, but I love a good turtleneck! They’re simple and chic, and easy to dress up and down. I love the color of this one from SheIn. It has my melanin straight popping! The material is great. It fits true to size, and I’m wearing an XS.
I didn’t realize the accessories would match so perfectly when I put this outfit together. The top looks like more of a brownish tan color on the website, and is described as “Coffee”, but in real life, it is more of a burnt orange. During this time of the year, I usually categorize all of my outfits as “Fall/Winter Style”, but I realize that title is a slight lie because it’s way too cold outside to wear this right now, lol. I just happened to shoot this look on a really nice winter day. 🙂
People have been feeling my squat poses, so I simply had to give it to them again, lol! I couldn’t choose between the no sunglasses, and the sunglasses, so y’all get both! 😀

I was just talking to my friend about needing a few turtle necks in my collection. They can give any look such a polished finish, and I love the burnt orange.
Thanks Lauren!
Loving that turtle neck sweater. The colors are the bomb! I might have to cop that purse I always stick to reg color purses
Thanks Kita! Yes, you should cop it!
This is such a lovely, casual and chic look. I would definitely ROCK this in the autumn! My favorite from this look has to be the jacket. So vintage-y.
Thanks Kendra! I love this jacket so much!
Too cute. I love the whole look. I have been looking for pumps that color. I have been ordering on Shein since I started reading your post.
Thanks Monique! Yes, this pumps color is everything! Glad my posts have inspired you to order off of SheIn!
Very cute outfit. Even got the shoes going! Get it girl!
Thanks Holly!
Love the whole look especially the bag!
Thanks Nanekia!
Who doesn’t love a tan leather anything? Pops so well with the denim jeans.
Agreed, Nadalie!
Very cute style. Im always leary of bare ankles in winter but this looks inspired me.
Thanks Brittany! Yes, it is definitely a risk of being cold exposing the ankles, lol.
Love the look and your hair is so lush
Thanks Nika!
I love EVERYTHING about your outfit!!!! I want those jeans.!! I also love the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. quotes.

You always get the color scheme right. Love it and always fierce effortlessly.
Thanks Kiwi!
I love Martin Luther King Jr. Had the opportunity to spend time at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis and it was very eye-opening. I love the suede pumps, they match perfectly with the jacket.
