It's so Fluffy!

One of my favorite animated film is Despicable Me and the inspiration of my title, "it's so fluffy! I wanna die!!!" hahaha...So now to the outfit, fluffy because of the adorable sweater I had on which, I purchased from Nordstrom Rack for only $8 (great steal!). I thought that the shape was rather odd but considering that I love the look of it from the color to the texture to warmth, I had to work with it.

I took advantage of the cropped style of this top by pairing it with a maxi skirt (from Forever21) to still keep an elongated look. It is also a great trick for the colder weather since I can hide a thermal under to still keep me warm. Adding a thick leather belt is a great contrast to the softenss of this top and was also a way to give a shape to the body since our bottom is flowy and long and the top if boxy and cropped.

My cropped jacket is also from Forever 21 and the chestnut color complimented this outfit and it did not change the look we were going for elongated bottom since the jacket is cropped as well.

A pop in collar of the jacket, the bun on hair and this look is a total wiiner!

Thanks again for reading!<3

Preppy With a Chance of Orange.

It's astonishing how fashion can evolve a person, I talk about this endlessly in my blog and hence the word "endlessly" it will always come out of me. If you go through my previous postings, you will probably notice that I do not carry a single style, I'm conservative one day and bold the next; It's all short and young one day and grown up the other. For this particular rather cooperative winter day (it was not as cold) I decided I will do preppy! How adorable is this look?! Don't I look like I'm just about to start spring classes?! haha

 

Speaking of spring classes, it is about to start and this might just be a great first day back to school outfit! For those college students, I must say this is one affordable look too. I got this precious jacket in this popping color of orange at H&M and the gold buttons make this even more charming--$15! You can't go wrong!

What better way to stay warm than layers and as we peel on these layers you will find my knit sweater I got also from Nordstrom rack for whopping $6! Underneath is just a pinstriped button-down shirt from Forever21. My sexy version of Mary Janes are $30 from Traffic.

Thanks for reading everyone! Please take note of all the places I went to for these items, they have some great sales still going on now!

Dressed Sweater.

Hi everyone! Happy Holidays! Tired of Christmas Shopping yet? I am! I keep in mind, however, that the Holiday season is the season of giving and the season to practice your bargain hunting skills. This posting is my last before Christmas and contrary to the festive colors around this holiday, my outfit stuck to simply black and gray.

This might be my most comfortable and effortless dressed-up outfit. It is truly a staple to have the famous "LBD" in your closet. Infact, I believe that every woman should have at least two or three of these LBDs in their closet. It is such a great canvas piece. I say canvas because the simplicity of it, the easiness and the fact that it is a neutral gives you a blank slate. There so many ways you can dress them up or down.

Let's proceed to the three types of LBDs I think a woman should have.

LBD #1: Casual Cotton Black Dress-that is illustrated in this posting. A cotton LBD is something that you can wear as a layering piece during the colder seasons or something you can wear in a casual party, on a shopping trip with your flats or flipflops, on a lunch date with a cross-body bag and leather jacket and a good pair of boots maybe...you see, LBDs are not strictly for evening anymore. The stretch of the cotton, the casual fabric and a simple fit is great for an occassion where you don't want to have as much constrictions.

LBD #2: Sexy Evening Black Dress- this is you LBD to impress! Something fitted to the body, a dress that will make you look so mysteriously sexy that you just cannot go wrong with it. This could be your go-to dress, the dress you wear on a date, the dress you wear on a night out.

LBD #3: The Classic-yes, every woman MUST have a classic, clean line black dress. This is the LBD you wear under a blazer for a meeting at the office, the LBD you wear on a company party, the LBD you wear on a dinner night with your boyfriend's family, the dress you wear with black pumps and pearls for that Jackie O look.

Merry Christmas everyone!!! I hope you all have a great holiday and once again, thank you so much for reading!
