My Holiday 2013 Party Look

Mona2w

I wore this outfit for Christmas Eve dinner.  I bought the dress for $60 at Kohl’s a year ago, but I never wore it. I added a black belt to accentuate my waistline.

OUTFIT

Mona18w

I also decided to add some color with a red tie..for after party ;P. The earrings are from Charming Charlie ($10). And who needs the shoes anyway??!! ..kidding… I had shoes – black pumps, but my feet were hurting by the end of the day, so I took them off for this photo shoot.

ACCESSORIES

Mona4bw

The rose gold-plated ring I bought online (I can’t remember where… it was over a year ago) and the bangle at Kohl’s for $15.

HAIR AND MAKEUP

Mona13wI did a soft wave on my hair by blowdrying it with a curling brush and then putting few rollers for extra body. For the makeup, I opted out for a bold berry-cherry lip, soft cat eye, and dusty-rose cheeks.

The Look of the Day: April Fools

TEAL is big this Spring season! Personally, it’s one of my favorite colors, but than again I pretty much like all colors :P.

Image

I’ve decided to wear a minty/teal blouse with teal necklace, earrings, and ring. All pieces, except the black cami and gray trousers, were bought at H&M.

Image

I completed my look with a soft loose braid on both sides of my head (see the close-up below). I also kept my makeup very soft and feminine.

Image

I hope you like my look of the day! Feel free to comment!

Charming Bows

I really dig the BOW jewelry  I made my way to Charming Charlie last week and I saw some cute bow cuff bracelets. Aren’t they adorable?

Image

They had 5 colors to choose from. I couldn’t make up my mind to only one color, so I decided to buy 3 of them (black, pink, and white). For $10 a piece, I think it was a bargain.

Image

Image

I also saw this cute bow ring (also at Charmin Charlie) for $7 and decided to get it.

Image

Isn’t it adorable???!!! So feminine and cute! I think it’s more “dressy” than the bow cuff.  Of course, I wouldn’t wear it with other bow jewelry. I don’t want to be too matchy matchy.

Image

Anyway, nothing makes a girl smile like a little bow. They are just so darn cute!

Fashion for the Office

Hello Lovelies!

Today at my office, I felt like wearing a classic black pants with a light pink top, royal blue sweater, flowery salmon pink shawl, golden accessories, and a nice pair of purple flats. I kept makeup very natural, with some pop of color of my cheeks and on my lips. Here is what I came up with:

Image

Pants: Black (NewYork&Co)
Top: Light Pink Blouse (Jennifer Lopez at Kohl’s) 
Sweater: Blue (NewYork&Co)
Shoes: purple (Nine West)
Shawl: salmon pink (Charming Charlie)
Earrings: from Hautelook
Ring: from Hautelook

Image

I’m not sure if you can tell from my picture (I hope you can :)), but I have lost about 15 pounds now! YAY! I still have a lot to loose about 25-30 more pounds and with every pound off, I’m getting closer to my goal.

Military Chic

One of the fall/winter 2012 trends is military chic. I decided to come up with my own take on this trend. The image of women has evolved over the years, which is also evident in fashion. Women are no longer seen as only innocent, weak, and submissive gender. They are now strong, independent, and powerful. Let’ us embrace the military chic style.

This is my own creation:

Look of the Day: Graduation Party

I was invited to my friend’s graduation party. The event was during the day and was informal. I want to show you how I did my hair and makeup and what I wore.

After the party, I decided to kick off my shoes :).
