NYE 2013!

Happy New Year everyone!

Just a quick to post to show what I wore last night. My girlfriends and I went to dinner at Grand Lux Cafe and hit the casino afterward (Donna won a whopping $17! LOL). Hanging with my girls and sharing laughs was the best way to bring in the new year!

What did you do for NYE?

Have a wonderful day!

Christmas Dinner at ……

Happy Monday all!

With Christmas only two days away, what to wear is somewhat on our minds (wrapping all those gifts is probably first!). If you’re stuck on what to wear, here are a few looks and some suggestions to hopefully help you out!

HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Home

Home is definitely where the heart is so being casual is on the top of the list. If I were entertaining at home I would wear a comfortable pair of slacks instead of jeans. Slacks are a great way to dress up a casual outfit without all the fuss.

Sweater: Old Navy
Pants: Vince Camuto
Shoes: Nine West
Necklace: Modcloth

A Family Member’s Home

Whenever I’m invited to a relative’s home for the holidays, I always feel like I have to dress up. Since I’m going to my cousin’s house for Christmas dinner, this is what I’ll be wearing. If you’re like me, add a pop of color to make your dressy outfit fun and festive!

Blouse: Old Navy
Skirt: Dorothy Perkins
Shoes: BCBGeneration
Necklace: Shoplately

A Restaurant With Your Sweetie or Friends

I have a few friends who bunk tradition and go out to dinner on Christmas. A LBD (little black dress) is a great option for your holiday dinner because its chic and timeless. Instead of reaching for a blazer, opt for a leather jacket to give your look some edge.

Dress: Sean Anthony Designs

Casual Friday: A is for Awesome!

TGIF all!

Sometimes when I get down, I tend to forget about the awesome things going on in my life. It’s easy to focus on the negative and not the positive, especially when you feel less than stellar. Lately I’ve been learning how to be appreciative of my awesome life. Yeah there are things that I wish were different but that shouldn’t negate how blessed I am. I’m awesome because I’m funny, sensitive, loving, loyal and have a big heart. I have an awesome smile that instantly brightens my face. I have an awesome support system that not everyone is lucky to have. I have an awesome sense of style that celebrates my body and flaunts my curves. Basically what I’m saying is embrace all the things that make you awesome. Let your light shine even when things don’t go as planned. Know that you are unique and special which makes you AWESOME!

What are some of the things that makes you awesome?

Have a fabulous weekend!

Be Electric!

Happy Monday all!

Winter has come early for most of us here in States. In my neck of the woods, it has already snowed three times in the past week. Needless to say, I’m not a happy camper. Shoveling is NOT sexy! So to combat the frigid cold, I wanted to wear something super bright today to warm my spirit. While it’s natural to gravitate towards wearing dark colors during the colder months, try adding pops of color to brighten up your Winter outfits. Before you know it, we’ll be welcoming warm Spring days!

How do you like to brighten up your Winter outfits?

Have a wonderful day!
