Just like a caramel

Love at first sight? Most definitely not. 

Love it now and later? Yes, yes....... 

Totally taken when seen, and worn? Double yeah ! 

Hey everyone, Happy Monday.  

I am talking about this striped caramel/black embellish top. I started to liked it as soon as I put it on. The material is not clingy and good quality. Thick but not too thick and will be good layering piece for Fall and Winter days. Even though it is more on a boxy cut, the darts on both sides just below the bust area gives an illusion of a smaller waist. 

The color is a perfect caramel and not the typical color combo.

Comfortable, non itchy and the embellish collar gives this top a more dressier vibe. 

And as much as this top is adorable, let me also say how glad I am found a laser cut bucket bag for a whopping $20..... And that the straps are shorter so I don't have to worry about long straps which can be annoying to some shortie gal like me :).  

 Today is my wonderful husband's birthday and as one of my gift for him, I will relieve him from his photographer duty for the day. I cannot imagine my life without you in it. 

Love you all the way to the moon and back....

Thank you from the heart.

xoxo

Casual stripes

We are blessed with longer summer and warmer days in the south so it is a no brainer to take advantage of these days as much as we can. Bare legs, arms and tanned skin, well yes please !!!! This is why I own more rompers that most people I know :), it is an addiction and I should and need to go to an AA meeting for rompers, ha ha ha. This is why Fall is just around the corner and our temps are still in the high 80's at most days. That is why I can guarantee you that my next few post are still outfits paying homage to summer oh well maybe some fall, we shall see......

I hope you have a wonderful weekend with lots of fun and laughter. 

Thank you from the heart

Short & sweet

Here's a virtual wave and smile from my part of the world to yours. Happy Monday everyone. 

On our way to a vacay with the family and keeping this post short and sweet. As I await for my husband to finish with the rentals and all, I am taking advantage of this pocket of time. You might think that I am wearing a romper again. actually it is not! A ruffled sleeves mesh overlay and a high waisted wide stripes shorts wore to look as one coherent outfit. 

I hope you have a lovely day so far. 

Talk to you all later when I get back to the blogging world in a couple of days. 

Thank you from the heart.

Xoxo

Nautical

Don't you just love stripes? I do, i do ! But then again, who doesn't? They say that a vertical stripes makes you look wider, a no no..... However, there are a lot of fashion rules that has long been broken. Rules have changed and shifted. Stripes can now be wear vertical without looking like an oversized armoire. The key is finding that flatters your figure and size. The options are endless. Silhoutte and style varies. But there is one thing that inspite being a petite girl like me never get around wearing- a wide horizontal stripe pants. I just don't know why. What are your thoughts? Please do tell. 

I hope everyone have a fantastic weekend.

Thank you from the heart with a happy dance

(spring break just started for us) :)

Mix prints

Hello everyone. I hope you are having a great day so far. And how was your weekend? Did you do anything fun and exciting? I can't believe I did not get bored watching a 4 hour long movie. Mind you no breaks....  It's an old classic that maybe some or most of you might not even heard of until now. It's called Gone With The Wind ! Based on the book with the same title. If it doesn't ring a bell, please google it. Since we now lived in ATL, the book and movie has a strong ties in ATL because the famous author(Margaret Mitchell) was from here. I am sure you will fell in love with the characters of Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Battler. But enough of this and let us get to business.

 Today I am mixing 3 prints. Never done this before. I had a max of 2 to be exact. Or maybe I did when I was little and in one of those days where I play dressed up, I might have been. 3 prints, eh??? what do you think? Plaid being the main highlight while the stripes and leopard in little doses. Fourth print most definitely not but a pairing with an understated ripped jeans is certainly a ok. 

Easy peasy if you ask me.

Thank you from the heart.

xoxo

My Valentine

It's Valentine's day once again. I don't exactly remember what we did last year and yet here we are again celebrating this event. Surely 2014 is faster than it seems. No biggie plan for us. My husband and I both agreed not to get each other anything fancy for a gift. For me, a good dinner somewhere would be enough. I would even prefer for him and my son to make me a home made card than the one they can buy at store. Or even a handwritten letter would even be better! I am even ok celebrating at home. I want to surprise him but he's always one step ahead of me. Well I will find out somehow. 

How are you celebrating? Tell me about it next time. But for now, loved and be love..... Happy  Valentine's day! 

xoxo
