Love My Pencil Skirts.

So sorry that I have been MIA lately. We have all been battling a nasty cold here at the Correa home and I am finally feeling better, and have some energy (and relief time from my little ones) to at least write a little something of a post.

So, I have to say that I love the this look that LC has on. I love my dresses and skirts and there is nothing better than nice fitting pencil skirt! One paired with a great dainty, printed, floral or even bright top is a definite DO. It is not only classy, but usually pretty comfortable and usually can be figure flattering for many body types (when one is wearing their appropriate size I might add...I have seen some try to squeeze in to one that is just one size too small!). Honestly this look, with any number of tops, usually looks good and when I like to mix a little casual in I have worn a cute pencil skirt with a belt, and a nice fitted girly 'wife beater' tank and some extra jewelry to dress the top up a little....that along with some added color to my lips!






As all of us are fully aware of, floral is everywhere for the Spring wear and as you can see Whitney Port is sporting and pair of floral pattern tights. I like them myself.





I like the micro-floral print on this dress of Pink's. It is not only extra feminine, but it gives it a little bit of a dated feel. I can imagine how one might find similar looks at some great Vintage shops!

OK, so I know that many of you are still not able to really begin wearing open toed heels/sandals, go with out a coat, or bare those lovely legs yet because of that darn cooler weather so thought I would share just a couple of looks that are great for the tail end of Mr. Winter....OK, so almost to the tail end;)

Yes, I am still loving the over the knee boots and why not wear them while you still can. Also, while I love this top, it doesn't have to be such a fitted top to go with the leggings. A looser boyfriend sweater would look good, or adding a bomber jacket, jean jacket, or even a scarf to your top would all look good as well and give some extra coverage if that is what is wanted.

Mary Kate looks so much better to me when looking put together, and I have to say that she looks really good here. Love the belt with the coat.

If the weather is letting up some, then ditching the coat and rocking a nice scarf with a cute sweater is great way to go. Especially for all you/us moms needing a stylish, yet comfortable, and realistic look!!!



Congrats to the Saints....We were pulling for them here and I am so happy that they have their first Super Bowl win under their belt!!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and a happy Monday!!

Bendiciones!!!

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!!!
