Merry Christmas!!!

I know it is a couple of days early but with my hubby being home now, I will not be on the computer as much. I wanted to get my Christmas wishes in before it is too late. Today I have posted an outfit similar to what I will be sportin' for some of the festivities this week. I am going with a more casual, relaxed yet, of course, chic look. This selection will allow me in enjoying all of that yummy food we all know will be there! Take a peek and let me know what you think!



What I will be wearing to Christmas Dinner by amanda correa featuring Mulberry bags

I went with a wider leg trouser, also higher waist, just in case I eat one too many of our delicious Holiday bars! Also, not so sure it is wise to wear a lower waist jean with all the bending over and grabbing of presents...yikes!! The longer shirt and bomber jacket allow me a little camouflage if my poor tummy just can't take it any more from all of my 'taste testing';)

*Extra food for thought (since we are going to be around a lot of food anyway!): You could always wear some leggin's with a pair of over -the- knee boots with this outfit...love that look. You could wear some red heels instead of the black I picked, skinny jeans look just as great (totally all about preference) or you could change the top out for a boyfriend sweater, wear a great turtle neck under the jacket, go with a dressier top etc.

I am sure you all will look faBUlous these Holidays...hope you feel fab too! No matter how you look, because really (though I am a lover of some style) that's not what it is about, I truly wish you a very blessed Christmas!!

Feliz Navidad!!!

Picks of the week.

I always like to throw some different styles in for my pics of the week. That's probably because that's more my personality. I like to switch it up quite a bit...dress to impress, simple dresses, boots (all styles..mostly), jackets, be down right comfy and I actually like a sporty style too! Here are some styles that I like for different reasons, and as usual, hope that these can give you some inspiration when going through your closets...or shopping! May all of you style lovelies have a beautiful weekend!

OK, I am liking these jeans that Kim K. has on, and can't help but love the jacket too.






Amerie did it again for me....love this dress, and tan heels too!



Do you see those tights?!









I am into the bomber/biker jackets and I like this casual look with it. Adds just enough to this simple style. * Something to remember: It's always fun to play your make-up, up, when wearing a simple look;)

I am one to usually opt for heels, but Gwyneth shows us that some cute flat boots still give some style (comfort too!) when in mommy mode.

This pic is obviously more about the purse than the outfit, and just wanted to show that a great tote is always needed no matter what the outfit....just makes everything better!!

I not only like the blazer with the skinny jeans that Gabrielle is sportin' , but also like the ruffles peeking out...makes it extra feminine.





I like this just for Keri's shirt...love the sleeves and the color.

Like the thigh-highs on Hayden, and the coat too.

Eva is another who's style never seems to disappoint me.

















Something to ponder on this weekend: If you were at a point were you have reached your FULL potential, where do you feel you would be right now?

Until Monday.....

High Waisted...

So we have seen the high waisted jean make a come back over the last year or two and, for the most part, I am loving them. If the jeans are paired with the right top, they are a definite Do, however, if the outfit does not have a flow to it they can really just look like a style mishap. Being a mom myself, I think they are great for all the bending over you do when out with the kids..... so nice to know that you are not giving any sneak peaks with those low rises, but I do feel that they really need to be the right fit for you body in order to look flattering. Also, if you need more "junk in the trunk" then I would suggest wearing a cute jacket, sweater, opened up button up over a tee etc., in order to look more flattering in this fit of jean. These are also great for creating some slimming to the tummy and getting rid of the muffin top. Really, these jeans can be quite flattering to a women's figure and, actually, there are many that should wear these over those extra low rises. I found some high waisted styles that I would totally wear, and recommend. All of these outfits look great with this style of jean. What do you think?

I found something in all these pics that I really liked about the Style. Whether it was a Statement Necklace, Plaid (yes...plaid!), the Jeans, Bomber Jacket, Blazer, Hand Bag or a Laid Back style, all of these pictures posted did it for me this week. Have fun putting some outfits together this weekend!
