Into the gray side

Hi everyone. I been craving and lusting anything gray as soon as the colder months hits us. Gray is a strong trend this Fall/Winter 2014 and I am so happy about it. The color is versatile, neutral and as classic as black. And on every trend, there are always tons of options for everyone's budget. Making all trends so affordable for everyone. I can say I am a smart shopper because I always never pays full price for any item of clothing or shoes. I always wait when they the item that I am eyeing goes on sale or when there is some special promotion going on. Or ask if they can price match. It doesn't hurt to ask and especially during the holidays, retailers are very forgiving and wants that sale and will be more likely be accommodating. Since the biggest shopping season has officially started, more awesome sales and promotions is definitely on it's way. Lots of savings, special deals, longer hours, free shipping, and many more perks that retailers are offering these days are all we consider. Let's face it, any saving means more shopping, right ladies? 

Not only gray are a big trend that everyone including me are lusting about but also the big comeback of the 90's favorite, turtle necks. I am not a big fan of them back the days but now, I just adore them. A few weeks ago, I found these mock neck tunic sweater for a great price at my local Ann Taylor store at The Avenue Peachtree city location. It was markdown from $129 to $99 with an additional 60% off. What an amazing deal with something that on trend & good quality. If you want to see how I styled my tunic sweater, see my post here. 

Keep calm, enjoy a good coffee and have fun shopping.
Happy Thanksgiving.....

Thank you from the heart.

xoxo

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.

Shredded

Hi everyone. How are you? I hope you are doing great.  I decided to wear my shredded shirt that I bought last year and never get a change to wear it a lot. I don't know, for some reason I think this top makes me look fat ! So I just always push her to the side and pick something else. But lately I got to thinking what the heck? Life is too short for me to even think about that anymore. Do you have those days where nothing seems to fit you right? Anyway going back to the reasoning behind my post title, here is it.........It is not a typo. That is the adjective that my son used when he saw me wear this top. He said "mommy what happen to your shirt? I said what do you mean? Why does it looks like that - shredded? Then my 7 year old walked away. We left and off to have a nice dinner. And when I thought that the "shredded" top conversation is over my son said to the waiter, " Can I have my chicken shredded,  please? Huh, the waiter was so clueless and my son gave me his infamous mischievous smile ! I got you mommy !!!!!!!! One of the many reasons why I adore him(biased i know) but in his own little ways, surely can make me laugh !

I really really love this clutch. She's been with me lately. Thank you all for reading and have a fabulous weekend ahead.

Update: I am not on a self imposed shopping ban anymore. That only last for about 2 days. Why would anyone wants their shopping veins died of pain and suffering, lol.  Would you?

Hot Pink

Hi everyone. I hope you are having a good day ! Did it ever happen to you that you are staring at clothes in your closet and mumbling... Your mind just says, I don't have anything to wear and decide fast because you don't want to be late for work and you don't want your son to miss his school bus. I am usually good at this task. I would choose clothes I want to wear the night before so i will not have to deal with this dilemna in the morning. But for some reason, I don't feel like doing it and convice myself I can do it quick in the morning.
So i stare, stare and stare.Pull some clothes, try it on and it just don't look right or good. Today is just those days that putting an outfit is just frustrating.

So this is what I came up with ! I am lucky that our dress code at work is business casual. But I am not quite satisfied. I want some pop of color. Why not wear some hot pink suade shoes ! My barbie shoes.  nDon't be fooled by the heel height, she is very comfortable. The outfit of the day works for me and I made it on time for work, made my son's breakfast, comb his hair, tie his shoes, told him to brush his teeth and was able to check on "Spartacus"(my son's pet rabbit) ! Whew that was a mouthful !!

However, we miss the school bus.

Thank you for stopping by and as always I appreciate your time....... Ciao !
