I wore this outfit to attend my husband's office Christmas dinner. I didn't want to wear a dress so I opted for  a nice pair of jeans and this beautiful bow back blouse, I have been dying to wear and finished off the look with rose gold and black accessories.

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year. Enjoy time spent with family and friends and thank you all for taking the time to read my blog, I appreciate all of you.

FEELING BLUE

Outfit details: Shirt: similar/ Jeans: Levi's / Sandals: Zara (sold out) great options here & here / Necklace: Gift / Bracelets; H&M and Pandora / Clutch: (old) purchased via ebay a few years ago

In keeping with all the holiday activities I've been attending, I wore this outfit to my God daughter's Christmas concert. It was the cutest little concert I've ever attended and my little pumpkin did so well. I've had this shirt for a while, I purchased it on my last trip to New York and it was perfect to wear to the concert since it was raining quite a lot and the 'christmas breeze' was definitely blowing. Whenever I am going to be around my God daughter I always try to dress as comfortably and kid friendly as possible because she is a busy three year old.

Can you guys believe Christmas is just around the corner? I am so excited, I love Christmas. I am looking forward to cooking a huge dinner and having friends and family over to celebrate with us.

HOLIDAY PARTY OUTFIT


Outfit details: Dress (similar here another great option here) / Shoes: Christian Louboutin / Necklace: via Poshmark / Clutch: (old) purchased at an airport a few years ago.

I wore this amazing dress to my office Christmas party last Saturday. I am usually a sequins kinda girl when it comes to holiday parties but this time I decided to give the sequins a break and opted for this floral number. The colors on this dress are amazing and so bright, I felt like a christmas tree, except I wasn't lighting up :-) I originally decided to pair this dress with a gold necklace and emerald green earrings but decided on this chunky necklace (last worn here & here), I love how all the colors blended nicely with the colors of the dress; it's my perfect kaleidoscope of colors.

Sorry for the quality of photos, a combination of me socializing and remembering only when we were about to leave, and we didn't take the camera with us.

BLUE & ORANGE

Outfit details: Shirt: Forever 21 (love this printed one) / Pants: Loft (similar) / Wedge: Jessica Simpson (love this pair) / Handbag: Angela & Roi (here & here) / Watch: Invicta Angel / Sunglasses: Coach / Bracelets: H&M and Pandora / Necklace: old, from a boutique in Brooklyn

Blue and orange is one of my favorite color combos, and it is also my Alma mater's colors, which makes this outfit perfect for game day. I love how bold those two colors are and it definitely makes one stand out. I last wore this shirt here and again it was quite a bright combo :-)

What do you guys have planned for Christmas? What's on your Christmas list? Hubby and I are planning to have a very chilled out Christmas, last year we spent Christmas and New Years in Miami and it was incredible. I have been attending lots of holiday parties and eating and drinking my fair share of goodies. Lots of outfits coming up. Have a fab week!!

PREPPY

Outfit details: Top: Forever 21 [old] (here) & (here) / Skirt: Forever 21 [old] similar /  Belt: Aldo This  one is on my wishlist) / Shoes: Jessica Simpson / Necklace: via Poshmark / Handbag: Angela & Roi (here) & (here) / Watch: Invicta Angel / Bracelet: Gift from Mom

Pleated skirt and peter pan collar blouse? Definitely reminds me of my school uniform when I was a kid. I adore peter pan collars, there is something so feminine and girly about it, and it looks good on every woman, regardless of age. I love the gorgeous mint green color of this blouse and the polka dots gave it that added touch of "girliness". There are also some very tiny knife pleats at the front. This is another outfit I wore to work, the great thing about it is that it can easily be transitioned for evening drinks, by switching out my handbag for a clutch and adding more jewelry.

On another note, it's been raining here a lot lately and I don't mind it at all, I love the sunshine but when December rolls around I like when it cools down and so far it's been perfect, I can finally start dusting off my blazers :-) I won't lie, I really miss snow, I am so jealous of seeing all my friends and family's beautiful pictures, a winter trip may be in the works. Have a great weekend. xx

TOUCHES OF YELLOW


Outfit details: Top: Loft (similar) / Skirt: Loft (similar) / Cardigan: Marni for H&M / Handbag: Aldo (old) (Love THIS) / Shoes: Steve Madden

This outfit happened by accident, I was running late and settled for this eyelet skirt and printed blouse and couldn't find a blazer that I liked enough with this outfit so I pulled this Marni for H&M cardigan (I love the details on this cardi) and it just so happened that it went perfectly with my handbag. All in all I love the combination of the prints; it's by far my favorite accident :-)
