Hi BEAUTIES! Okay so I rarely ever post on a Sunday but I am one, too excited, and two, will not have time to share this post tomorrow. SO I had to get this out there today! I’ll talk a little about the pattern first and then share my exciting news with you all! 😉 This AMAZING jumpsuit is one of the latest from the MIMI G pattern collection with Simplicity. It was love at first sight with this one! SO many people are raving about it and I’m sure you will see several more variations coming from myself and other bloggers! It’s a goodie! 🙂 The fabric and size detail are in the pattern review below.

Now for my super exiting news. Are you ready? I am going to be flying to LA tomorrow, with a one way ticket, from Houston to become a part of the Mimi G Style team!!!! Yes!! 🙂 I am overwhelmed with excitement and curiosity about living in a new city. I have lived in the same area my entire life and rarely ever traveled so this is all going to be very new for me but I was not going to pass on a amazing opportunity such as this to be able to follow my passion and work with a team as great as Mimi’s. She’s been so awesome about the move and understanding of my concerns and I just want to thank her from the bottom of my heart for believing in me enough to represent her amazing brand. This is truly a gift that I will never take for granted! I’m writing this post to encourage my readers to always follow their passion, if you are doing what you love you will never “work” a day in your life. I’ve said it once here before and I will say it again, passion will get you so far. Follow your passion! 😉 I hope you are as excited about this as I am and I look forward to sharing this journey with you! Love you all! XO
