Vest Be With You

Maybe you are wondering why in the hell I am dress all black in the middle of summer? What happen to the bright colors, pastels or even an all white look? There is a method to my madness ! Yes it is all black but I am wearing something that is breathable courtesy of my crochet top, no sleeves via this vest and a shorts. So even it is black, i still feel cooler and comfortable. 

Everything is lightweight and such an easy wear. 

Some kind of trick that I have been tried and works for me. 

The vest pull the whole look together. It's like showing some and hide some type of thing :) 

I hope you have a wonderful weekend. 

I am getting packed for our short trip to Florida. 

We are attending the funeral and pay last respect to my husband's cousin the last time. 

Thank you so much for all the sweetest thoughts, virtual hugs and condolences.

 I truly, truly appreciates it all.

Thank you from the heart.

xoxo

Sam

Keep Me Warm

Hello everyone. Happy Monday. We had a busy but fun weekend. It is harder to go shopping when the people you want to shop for is with you. I really need to be focus this week and doesn't get sidetracked. My problem is instead of shopping for other people, I always ended up picking stuff for me. My husband said if I keep on buying for myself then Santa will run out of ideas of what to get me. How was your weekend? Are you done shopping, still shopping or opted to stay in and keep yourselves warm....

What keeps you warm lately? I have my trusty faux fur to keep me warm on those cold winter days. It's wonderful how a simple coat like this can take a simple tee and semi ripped jeans  to a different level. Although I got a lot of teased and side comments from my funny 7 year old son and the mister, I still wear it with style and promised them both to wear it often until they stop teasing me about it. To the little man and the big man at home - don't mess with the messer !!!! The truth is she keeps me warm and that is all that matters.

May you all have a fabulous week ahead and thank you so much for all your sweet thoughts. YOU are a rockstar !

It's Chunky And Gray

Happy Thursday everyone. One more day, one more day and my precious weekend is here. For some reason this week feels like an eternity to me. Maybe because a few days off for Thanksgiving made me feel this way. I need to snap out of this vacay mode immediately ! This weekend we are taking my son to get some picture made with Santa. He is getting bigger(7 to be exact) and we are thinking that it might be the last year that he will still wanna do it and still believes in a big guy with a red fat suit....Up to this day I still remember how my son's eyes lit up whenever he see Santa handing out presents in our yearly Christmas party at our house. So that will be our plan aside from sneaking in some christmas shopping for gifts, mailing holiday cards and finally making my candied pecans before I eat them all. What about you, any fabulous weekend plans?

On another note: This sweater is so far my favorite buy this season. It is chunky, a bit oversized(for me), comfortable and most of all not itchy. I love it a lot that I been reaching out for it often.

A Tutu + Leather

Happy Monday everyone. My weekend was fabulous, how about yours? Thank you all for the sweet thoughts from my previous post. I do enjoy reading all of them. Through my post I am connecting with each and everyone of you somehow. Just when you think that a peplum top is not girly enough, how about a tutu peplum.  And so when I told myself that no more peplum top or dresses and here I am with yet another acquisition. In my defense I never had  tutu peplum before. Since the top is too much girly, I paired it with a leather moto pants to give it a little bit of edge and off went  to some Friday fun.

Fall Blooms

Hi everyone. Happy Monday ! The weekend was short and sweet. How was your weekend? Saturday was the mister's birthday and since he's not home on the day of we get to celebrate it yesterday. Nothing fancy. Not even in a nice restaurant. All he wants is a home cooked meal ! It warms my heart that with all my recommendations nothing matters to him but a food made with love...  When I saw this pants at the store a few weeks ago, it instantly caught my eye. There is something about the floral prints and the other colors in contrast with black. With a minor hemming and shrinking in the dryer, i think the purchase is worth it. Flashback a few years ago, i told myself that I will not be caught dead wearing a floral print trousers and look at me now I am wearing one ! That is why you gotta love fashion. It's always changes and it constantly evolving. Readers: Is there anything you said never to wear and now you are wearing it?

Have a great week ahead of you and thank you all for the sweet thoughts from my previous post.
