The Best of 2012

Happy Monday all!

Initially I wasn’t going to do a “best of” post but I decided to do one anyway.  I picked these outfits because they were so fun to wear! The outfits are special to me because they show me embracing my body.  No more hiding and following ridiculous fashion “rules”. If I like it and feel comfortable, I’m gonna wear it!

In keeping with New Year traditions, I’ve only made two resolutions that I know I will not break:

1. Exercise & be healthy

2. Travel more (I’m heading to Vegas later this month, Paris in April and Chicago in July)

What are your New Year resolutions?

Have a great day!

Casual Friday/More Tuxedo Love!

TGIF everybody!!!

My outfit today combines two of my favorite clothing items…my white tuxedo jacket and red skinny jeans. Casual Friday at the office is the perfect opportunity to finally wear them together. I didn’t want to wear a solid color underneath the jacket so I wore my black and white striped tank from the Gap Outlet (which I got for 70% off!). You can never go wrong wearing these colors together!

Great news! I will be sponsoring my first giveaway so stay tuned for details! Have a wonderful weekend.

Tuxedo Love

Happy Monday all! I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day yesterday!

When I saw this Bespoke white tuxedo jacket from Simply Be it was love at first sight! Armed with my 40% off coupon I placed my order and patiently waited for the jacket to come. After almost waiting 2 weeks for the jacket, it finally arrived. Lemme tell ya it was worth the wait! Everything from the cut to the fabric is outstanding. It’s not flimsy or boxy. It’s a structured blazer that flatters your curves. The jacket can be dressed up with heels or down with jeans. And it’s completely appropriate for the workplace. The tuxedo jacket is definitely one of those “must have” items for your wardrobe.

How would you wear a tuxedo jacket? Have a great evening!
