VIOLET

Outfit details: Top: H&M / Pants: Loft (sold out in the color I'm wearing) / Shoes: Enzo Angiolini Leealder (Sold Out) / Handbag: Tory Burch

I love a bright pair of pants for work and while I love pairing them with other bright colors, sometimes a neutral color is a go to for me, since it makes the pants stand out more. This pair of violet pants is one of my favorites, I have worn it with a combination of colors and they still seem to stand out; such a gorgeous color, plus Loft can never do wrong in my book, because at 5'3" I never have to worry about finding the perfect fit at their store.

FRENCH BRAID

Hello beautiful people, I hope you're all having a lovely weekend.

Two weekends ago when I went to my hair stylist, I had no idea what I wanted to do with my hair then I remembered a photo Danielle of the Style and Beauty Doctor posted of her hair in a beautiful french braid, to which I commented and told her I'll be stealing her look :-) Even though I have relaxed hair, the minute water touches it, it goes back to its natural state. So my hair stylist created this beautiful braid that I wish I didn't have to take out.

CHAMBRAY + FLORAL

Outfit details: Shirt: Loft (similar) / Skirt: Loft (similar) / Shoes: Aldo / Handbag: Tory Burch / Sunglasses: Coach

The weather here has been so cool lately, I am really enjoying it. When I saw this shirt on the rack at the Loft store, I had to have it. It is described as a softened chambray and it definitely is, the material is very light and soft and since it doesn't look too much like denim, it was great to pair with a pencil skirt for work.

When I go shopping with my husband and brother in law, they tend to walk into a store and whatever's on the mannequin they try to convince me to purchase, (I'm guessing it's a ploy to get me out of the store as quickly as possible) I don't always take the bait because I am always searching for a deal, but in this case, I fell in love with the shirt and skirt and both came home with me.

Happy Monday guys xoxo

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!!

COLORFUL STRIPES

Outfit details: Shirt: Old Navy / Skirt: Loft (similar) / Shoes: Jessica Simpson (sold out) / Necklace: Forever 21 / Sunglasses: Coach / Watch: Invicta / Bracelet: H&M

These photos were taken a few weeks ago; with traveling and work I somehow forgot to post them, so here they are. Better late than never right? Right!

It's no secret that I love stripes and I especially love pairing it with different patterns and prints however, I played it safe with this outfit by combining this multi color striped skirt with a neutral blouse and playing up my outfit with standout accessories and shoes.
