OOTN and FOTN: Swallows

Hola chicas! Here is an outfit of the night. It was super casual but I tried to make it a little bit more stylish by adding a scarf that had these neat swallow birdies printed on it.

I went out to dinner with my hunnbunn so I guess you could say it was a casual date night and I was trying lol. I added a teal blue batwing top and my scarf. Underneath the scarf a long necklace that came in a set but only used one.

Makeup a soft bronzey look and peachy cheeks nude lip. Please excuse some of the images they were at night so they may not be very clear.

Top: Wet Seal Leather Jacket: Georges Marciano Guess

Not a good shot as I was walking. Wow you can really see that Sunset Beach Milani blush!

OOTD: Business Casual

There are days where I love my sleep. I play a game of tag with that snooze button and while I get a few more minutes of blissfull sleep there are consequences to this.

I have to negotiate with time and what I will actually put thought into looking like for the rest of the day. I was hesitant to put this up but hey we are all REAL here and no one is PERFECT. I grabbed a gray Old Navy scoop tee and my distressed jeans. Now that was PLAIN! So I threw on a pop of color with a two toned infinity scarf and some electric blue mara janes and a neutral blazer. Now we're talking!  

Rundown of the quick out the door outfit that there was no thought into. My bracelet is a grift from a friend from Kenya porcupine can you believe it!
Of course the compromise and negotiation came down to my hair and makeup. Messy bun with a side part and a little bit of hair serum to the ends and the makeup was very natural for my day.
In a neutral world. These babies brightened up my day.
My "Dynasty" style clutch I found at a vintage consignment shop I am in love with metallic things lately.

This weeekend was short and sweet however I managed to snag some goodies all at super great prices. I just love it when stores are changing their inventory so that I can shop for next to nothing and not feel guilty.

First stop was CVS which had a 75% off Milani Cosmetics. I made out like a bandit an spent about $20 for so much products which I have been wanting to try. I even made a video haul about it I was so excited to let everyone know about it.

Next stop JcPenney where I did some multitasking at their Sephora counter and snagged more colored jeans. They were orifinally $22.00 but these were marked down way below that!!


Love saving on my clothes, beauty stuff, and all girly things.

OOTD: Neutral Tribal Print

I know there was a wave of tribal prints last year with bright colors and bold graphics. But lately I have been spotting these prints at stores and also on some runway images but in more neutral colors. I believe that these can work for cool weather and transition into spring depending on the fabric.

My sister was wearing a very similar type of color pattern on her sweater the other day and it loosely reminded me of this trend. I really like how she layered the printed sweater and made it her own with the accesories and she kept warm with the tights and boots.

OOTD: Youre my boy Blue!

Hola chicas hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Well here is a simple outfit that was super comfortable and still had a kick to it. Took a flowy lace top that I had in my closet and paired it with these electric blue jeans. I love colored denim and wish I owned all the colors. Colored denim is so effortless as all the work is done with that big bang of color.

Kept the top and shoes neutral color. I love these Lola booties super comfortable and still gives you that height.

OOTD: A New Day

Hola chicas hope you are all having an excellent first week of the year and keeping yourselves smiling and motivated as I am doing.

On the first day of the year after meeting up with amazing bloggers and my friend Candy I decided to continue my celebration of a new year with my friend. He is a great motivator and loves to take pictures and go hiking. On this day we decided to spontaneously go try a new for us seafood restaurant.

Before that we had some margaritas by the pool. The weather was nice and crisp not too hot or cold. This was a perfect occasion for us to set our goals and mind up for the new year and see what it has in store for us. I love days like this. Days when you do not plan a thing but everything is perfect and falls into place. Days where you have a smile on your face at all times.

Dress: H&M Shoes: Fancy Steps Love Booties

I can be out in the sun forever.

What if I fell into the pool lol.

OOTN: Cold Dark Night

Hello chicas! I bring you an outfit look that was suited for an outdoor evening where it was cold and much walking taking place.

Sure I could have just pulled out my old beat up Ugg boots and a hoodie that I had but I just could not bring myself to do that. I leave that for lounging around the house if I MUST!!

Spotted this oversize shawl like sweater and decided to layer it on top of a plain black fitted long sleeve top. Colored denim really helps to pull this together as it gave color to the grey.


Sweater: Marshall's Jeans: City Streets by JcPenney 
 

Did not comb my hair. My friend took this pic when I was not looking. I guess this really serves as a reminder I need to hit the gym.

Happy 2012!

Well hello there chicas! A new year and a new chapter of our lives now begins. What a wonderful way to end 2011 it was for me and my hubby as we got a warm visit from my friend Candy from Curves Ahead blog and her hubby.

I was ecstatic as this was a last minute trip. I was so happy to have my friend and partner in  my town oh yeah. We ate, shopped, and  talked makeup, fashion, and of course shoes. Celebrated the new year with a great ending and beggining.

Having some NYE drinks

Quality time with our loved ones.
