LookBook: The Pastel Look with Mermaid Skirt!

  Are you a big fan of the nudes and pastels but needs a little something to spice things up? Like the romantic style but needs a bit of an edge?! Well, this is a look for you my darling ;)

  I got this Forever 21 skirt and was hesitant on what to wear with it, I didn't want the typical "cutesy look" or an "all over sparkles" type of thing, so to add an edge to it and a strong color I paired the skirt with a silk cream blouse (romantic style) with chocolate brown accessories, such as a fedora hat, peep toe oxfords and a thick leather belt!! Hope you enjoyed this look and get inspired to try on some risqué add-ons.

Since it's pretty cold outside I paired my outfit with a leather jacket and a soft nude pashmina ;)

The hat adds a bit of a spice to an otherwise bla outfit!

Love love love the fur with ruffles vest I got from my dearest manager! She gave me as a gift and it worked perfectly with the rest of the pieces!!

The soft look! Works for an office as well as for happy hour ;D

WeekPick: Must-haves and other great little bargains

   This is a new segment I'm working on and testing it out, you see one of my favorite hobbies (to do on those snowy Saturday mornings, sipping endless warm coffee) is to find great buys online, I keep them all in the virtual bags in the hopes I'll be able to go back and click on the BUY button ;) -doesn't always happen- so I thought, why not share these great finds with you too? And that's what I'm doing....wishing I could get them all myself but hoping you'll be happy to find something for yourself!!!

 Forever 21 sale items, a real feather vest that comes in cream, nude and eggplant. Can't beat the 25 dollar price tag ;)

Check it out: forever21.com

***Attention, Forever 21 is giving an extra 50% off on the sale items!!!! Hurry up, offer ends today!!!

Another steal is this cute sweater also comes in pink/light pink combo

   Every outfit can benefit from an amazing belt, it can definitely complete your look. Consider getting one in a neutral color that can be worn with several different colors, such as a nude/beige/sand color. 

BCBG MaxAzria leather belt

Now, this is my total weakness! I desperately need this belt (kinda felt like wonder woman when I tried it on while in NYC) I confess I'm a total belt addict and this will look amazing in my collection...just wish it would go on sale as the price is much more than I can handle for a belt $158.00

bcbgmaxazria.com

BCBG MaxAzria faux leather belt $78.00 - might have to settle for this one ;)

I'm in love with this zig-zag patterned sequin tee from J.Crew, also on sale for 99.99

             jcrew.com
















  This is the time to look up sales, stores are getting packed with merchandise and need to get rid of older stuff to make room for the newbies. You can definitely find a lot of amazing things for half the price or less....happy shopping ;)

Sunday Funday!

   Little kids birthday parties are another way I'm squeezing a look lately. I know it might sound exhaustive to find the perfect outfit for some, but for me it's actually quite entertaining - given I have the time, which doesn't always happen!
   
   My point being, now a days you have the option to follow blogs for inspiration (easiest and cheapest way) or get yourself a stylist (like ME!!!), people like me are everywhere and ready to help the busy ladies out there. Many luxury stores around the country offer this service for free, just ask ;) another tip for when you are in fact looking for a stylist is to match her style to yours, we all have different styles and that is what differentiate us from one another, and what clients look for when trying to chose the best option for their goals!

   Back to Sunday's birthday party, shall we?! I wanted to wear something cute yet casual. Nothing better than a jeans, tee and flats combo, but in this case I added my newest acquisition (a bargain I must say!) to the combo - a cute cobalt blue studded motorcycle jacket!!! It made the outfit :D

The find of the season: studded motorcycle jacket, Forever 21, $30; jeans, J Brand $150 and up; shoes and belt, Jorge Alex -past collections-

Don't have time to wash your hair?! Braid it girl! Take advantage of the braid trend and get ready in just a few minutes.

The perks of being a mommy fashion blogger is that I'm blogging while building a family album ;)

All accessories from Stella & Dot

Pictures taken by my sweet little Bella (she has been my main photographer these days!) @ the Vail Racquet Club.

 Just so you know, I've been really "lost in inspiration" lately but am working hard to bring back my old self and get more involved with blogging again...to prove that I'm preparing a little surprise for my readers!! Just wait and see :)

Beijos,

LookBook: Day out of town..

   Day out of town finding lots of goodies for fall! Went to pick up my girlies at school and Bella goes: Mommy, you look soooooo cute!!!!!

   What in heavens would I do without my "gurls"?!

   Anyhow, she took some of the pics and here we are:

 

It all started when my friend Karin went sneaker shopping and asked my opinion, I sent her my look wearing my own!

Then my Belinha started shooting!! Ban, ban, ban

Great hat find at Target (little girls section! Oops!!!) Bird top H&M, jeans Rag & Bone (the best jean I have ever worn!!)

Cardi Forever 21, sneakers Steve Madden, Jewelry Stella & Dot

Mother's Day Goodies

Yesterday I took my old shoes to the shoe repair at the mall and to my disappointment I found out they can't be repaired :( oh well that's life, I got a looooot of wear out of those!

But my trip wasn't a total waste of time since I found my mother's day gift (yes, I do the shopping and just tell hubby that's his gift for me - not romantic but very practical!! haha) Now I just wanted to share my goodies with you, I'm addicted to Pinterest (thanks to my dear friend Isabela!) and have been seeing so many hot accessories for spring that I made a point of getting only costume jewelry. I'm in love!!!
