Casual Winter

The temperature has definitely fallen, we even saw our first dusting of snow! My favorite thing about the cold weather is putting on a comfy over-sized sweater, stretchy leggings, some simple jewelry accent pieces, and throwing my hair back in a ponytail. Finish the look with a smoky natural makeup and it's time to cuddle up on the couch!

What are some of your favorite cold weather looks?

Casual Brunch Outfit

So this weekend, mother nature made it clear that fall is upon us. We were having such a beautiful fall that she tricked me into believing it would never end. The chill in the air inspired this outfit. A cozy sweater, comfortable jeans, and pair of calf-hugging boots with a touch of color from the nails and necklace.

Elegant Dinner

One of my favorite fashion style is to dress a nice pair of jeans up! It creates such a simple elegance that I adore. It gives the outfit a sense of sophistication without taking things to seriously. So a dark wash jeans with a lace top, gold accent jewelry, neutral shoes and makeup with wavy hair is my perfection!

Summer Romper

Rompers are one of my favorite outfits for the summer. They can be dressed up or down and are always so comfortable.

Casual Sunday

Another easy Sunday outfit. Nothing better than a flowy light shirt to lounge around in on a beautiful Sunday. Paired with strappy sandals, stacked bracelets, a pendant necklace and jean and the outfit is complete. 

Enjoy your Sunday,

Simple, Summer, Day Wedding

A summer, day wedding calls for a light hint of color. This gorgeous yellow, pink, and coral colored, one shoulder dress is the perfect mix of color and elegance. To avoid from stealing the attention of the dress, I paired it with neutral, strapped heels, studded earrings, and stacked bracelet. A simple updo also helps put this dress on display while adding to the beauty of the ensemble.

Lazy Sunday

I am known for my lazy Sundays. Most Sundays, I will complete a few chores and then spend the rest of the day relaxing and getting ready for the work week. So a lazy Sunday calls for a lazy comfortable outfit, which for me is a t-shirt, relaxed jeans, messy updo, and some comfortable shoes:

Summer Wedding

Summer is quickly approaching and that means wedding season is coming. A whole day spent celebrating means a simple and elegant attire is a must. I like surrounding a colored outfit will neutral accessories, letting the dress shine on its own. This blue dress would compliment any skin tone and show off your gorgeous shoulders! A simple updo will let this chunky necklace and simple dropped earrings shine. Simple, wedge, comfortable heels to finish the outfit.

What do you think?

Spring Colors

Spring is finally coming, which makes me think of colors, lots of color! This inspired my simple, colorful, chic outfit below. What are you dying to wear this spring?

Fall Comfort

Yes, it's fall and the temperatures are starting to drop. It's also the start of the busiest shopping time of the year. Here is my take on a fall outfit that I could shop for hours in with ease and comfort! Natural makeup, a messy updo, skinny jeans, low ankle boots, a warm cardigan and some spiked accessories.

Fall Elegance

Fall is no doubt my favorite season of the year and with the cold crisp feeling in the air and the vibrant colors of the leaves, they make me long for a sense of warm and cozy elegance. One thing I love about fall is breaking out the warm wool coats! They are so versatile and can be both dressed up and down. Here I decided to dress it up in a neutral, sparkly manner. Neutral colors can be quite glamorous as you can see with the sequin details on this dress and shoes or the eye catching earrings. These are my favorite outfits: simple, elegant, classic!

Natural Glam

Sure color can be attention grabbing, but I don't think anything can beauty natural beauty! This outfit is simple yet beautiful with neutral colors, makeup, a messy updo and casual statement jewelry. Great for an elegant dinner, summer wedding, or meeting up with the girls for a night out.

What do you prefer, color or neutrals?

Summer Dresses

With a gorgeous 4th of July, I really got into the mood of summer. So I hopped onto Hautelook and snagged four really cute summer dresses. If you're not familiar with Hautelook, it's an online store that is free to sign up and has daily deals on a variety of quality stuff. From designer clothes, shoes and handbags to furniture, makeup, and jewelry. The caveat to the deals are they are sold out fast and are only posted for three days before new events take their place. So if any of these dresses catch your eye, go grab them before they disappear on Tuesday!

Now, let's talk about the items I snagged this weekend. The first dress is a scoop neck, racer-back, floral print, hi-lo dress by Love Stitch. It's quite simple with a creme background and light colorful floral prints scattered throughout the dress. The spaghetti straps are perfect for a hot summer day and the black accents create a beautiful accent. I also love the key-hold racer-back and the hi-lo hem gives it a modern romantic feel.

Coral is a staple summer color so I jumped all over this LAmade sleeveless drawstring dress!  I'm also a huge fan of the cross drape front and the draw string waist gives it a casual, but sophisticated look.

For a slightly more formal summer dress, this Pink Owl Stripe Keyhole Dress is perfect for such occasion. I love the peach color, the sheer stripes, teal belt and pleated front give it a playful feel.

This Pink Owl dress is very similar to the previous dress, but with a colorful, fun leaf graphic print. This is the one I am most exited about! I have been more intrigued by prints lately so this will be a beautiful addition to my closet. Once again, this dress also has a fun contrasting belt to add contrast.

Spring Outfit

The last few days have made me missed the sun. To the point where I had to create an outfit, just to console myself! So here is my spring inspired ensemble filled with color, life, and fun.

Chandelier Earrings

Lately, I have been obsessed with chandelier earrings. They are easy to dress up or down and can add some character to an outfit. Especially now that it is spring and the sun is poking itself out more often, I have been looking for pieces with color. One color in particular that I love is turquoise. So during my last outing to WorldMarket, I knew I had to pick up these beauties:

They hang about 2 inches and are just a gorgeous turquoise hue.

The second pair I snagged was actually picked out by my husband. It kind of reminds me of an ombre affect from a light blue, faded yellow then bright blue. Definitely a piece that screams spring!

What cute items are you guys finding for spring?

The Start of Summer

I don't know why, but I love a good hoodie with a pair of jean shorts for cool summer nights. Sure, it's not summer quite yet but I'm just planning ahead. For these types of outfits I like to keep it simple. A casual leather watch, stud bow earring, a strappy leather sandal and I'm good to go!

Colorful Summer

Yellow makes me think of summer, sun, warmth, and just plan happiness! So for this outfit, I chose a zippered, yellow t-shirt and paired it with a denim jacket, white shorts, mint crossbody and t-strapped sandals and mint nail polish. Then some nautical themed necklace and earrings and a good old large fashion ring, sunglasses and simple top knot bun. Summer is here!
