Holiday Shimmer

Hi Lovies,

With Christmas and NYE just 2 weeks away, I am getting my holiday looks together. Normally for Christmas I spend it with family inside so I don't get too dressed up. But I still like to have a bit of a festive flare to my look while still remaining comfy. I want to wear something that says holiday and anything with shimmer, sparkle or metallic is the way to go. As I mentioned in my previous post, Simply Be has been bringing their A game for holiday inspired pieces this season. This Choker Neck Jumpsuit surprisingly caught my eye when I was browsing the site. As you know I don't really wear jumpsuits but this was one I wanted to try. I loved the shimmery metallic fabric that had the festive feel I was looking for. The choker detail and v-neckline added a touch of sexy and femininity that I love. Not to mention how comfortable and stretchy the fabric was, I could wear this all night and be just fine. The cropped leg design is so on trend and allows you to show off whatever fabulous shoes you choose to pair with it. This is a very different look for me but I am looking forward to giving  them Holiday Shimmer this Christmas.

Winter Party Wear with Simply Be

Hi Lovies,

When it comes to holiday dressing, I have my favorite brands that are my go tos. Every season they bring all the festive goodness that I am looking for. Simply Be is one of those brands that has been killing it with their holiday fashion. If you remember last year, I rocked a few of their dresses and they were huge hits! (See here and here). This year they dropped a bunch of Winter Party Wear that will have you looking glitz and glam. This is the time of the year that I go all out and want to wear something that is a show stopper. So of course I had to choose something that was colorful as well as sequins, why not? This Ombre Sequins Swing Dress literally had my jaw dropped when I saw it on the site because all of my holiday dreams were made. This dress is just a spectacle of sparkly goodness with the different ombre sequins. The flattering swing shape made it easy to wear and gave it great movement. While this dress is super glam, I can totally dress it down a bit with a moto jacket and booties and still achieve a winter party look. You will definitely be showing off a bit of leg in this number as it is on the shorter side. But if that's a problem for you, there's nothing that a pair of tights can't fix. You will definitely be owning the night in this stunning dress.

Keeping it Casual

Hi Lovies,

If you've been following me for a while then you know I love getting dressed up. I'm that girl that gets dressed up to go to my local bodega! Dresses and skirts have been my jam for the longest time and I just love being super feminine and girly. While that hasn't changed much, if you remember in my previous post, I mentioned how my style keeps evolving. Now I find myself reaching for clothing that is more causal and comfy. Especially during this time of the year when it's colder and you just want to be warm and cozy. Don't get me wrong, I will always be a girly-girl and love getting dolled up in dresses and such but change is good.

Comeback

Hi Lovies!

My goodness it has been a while since I posted on the blog! It feels good to be back and getting into the flow of things again. There are just times that I get very uninspired with the blog and need to recharge to get the creative juices flowing. It happens to us all and it's totally okay to take that time to refocus. For me getting dressed up and feeling pretty is definitely a way to get my fashion vibe going. You already know my obsession with leopard/cheetah print, so when I got this Cowlneck Skater Dress from Avenue I was in love. It fit all my dress needs, it was cheetah print, a skater silhouette and it had a cowl neck that is so perfect for the season. The Avenue has definitely been bringing the heat with their fashion and this dress is a perfect example. Extremely well made,super soft and easy to wear, as well as being lined underneath. By adding their gorgeous Velvet Lace-up Pumps, totally took this look up a notch. The lace-up detail and burgundy velvet was such a sexy touch to the shoe, while the block heel made them easy to walk in. I loved how the mix of the print and texture from the dress and shoes played so well together. Such an elegant and sophisticated look that anyone can pull off. It's safe to say that I  am back and ready to take on the world!

Sizing detail: Dress is a 18/20 Shoes size 10W
