Cobalt Maxi For all Seasons

I never thought there would be more than two ways to wear this cobalt maxi dress. I wore it this weekend for my sister in law's baby shower. I got tired of wearing pants and wanted something more comfortable. I mentioned previously that I could wear the dress to bed...it's that comfortable. See below for other ways I've worn it over the years. Maybe I'll wear it with a blazer next time. What do you think?

Olive Cropped Khakis


Did I mention how much I love these Old Navy Boy Friend Khakis? I wore the navy ones here. This is my fifth pair of cropped pants from Old Navy. I think they made their cropped pants for me; they fit! They have the perfect stretch and fit over my belly and are not too big for my skinny thighs. I usually have to take in all my pants in the thigh area.
This is an outfit for the last warm days of fall. I wish the warm weather could stay a little bit longer. I'm too lazy to bring my winter clothes and shoes out again.
Have a great rest of the weekend.

Summer Vacation: What to Pack, What to Wear

Anyone taking a vacation this summer? Here are three outfit ideas for different activities typical of a summer vacation trip. These are pieces and styles that I would wear. The styles are also tailored towards apple shaped body types and also great for someone whose style is more modest and conservative. Which one is your favorite look?

Favorite Sleeveless Top


I was going to wear a basic tee with these jeans for work for casual Friday but reached out for this blouse instead, to disguise the muffin top that I wasn't happy with. Yes it's time for me to lose some weight. I really need to get on it now. I just want to lose 10 lbs that's all, so that my clothes can fit better.  I know I know, that's vain, not like everyone keeps saying they want to lose weight because of health reasons. Well, I'm being honest here; I want to lose weight because I don't want to go up a size and I don't like muffin tops.  Meanwhile, tops like these are great to wear with jeans if you are apple shaped.
Have a lovely weekend!

Black Crops

Here's a simple summer work outfit from this week. Sleeveless top, cropped pants and wedges layered with a sweater. I didn't realize It was rainy and cold so I grabbed the sweater last minute and  I don't believe I had it on all day. It was a chilly day for sure. I didn't mind it though. The cropped pants are another favorite of mine because they fit despite having a big mid section and small hips.

Old Navy Boyfriend Khakis

 
I'm happy I purchased these Old Navy Boyfriend Skinny Khakis; They fit. I've been looking for the perfect navy cropped pants. You know the criteria, something that would fit over my belly, not too big in the thigh area and that will not further make me an inverted triangle. These can be dressed up or down and I love love that there's some stretch but they do not become loose by the end of the day. Cropped pants are a staple for work in the summer and I'm thinking of getting these in Olive for weekend wear. The shell top worked well to balance out my shape.

Layered Olive and Mint

Happy Monday everyone. I attended a blogger conference sponsored by Invisalign on Saturday and boy did I learn a lot of new things about blogging. I will probably do a post soon on what I learnt. I also met a few Boston Bloggers that I did not know existed. I was telling Lisa (whom I met and who happens to live the next town over, and has a new link up...check it out) that I thought I was the only one taking pictures of my self in the neighborhood.
 
This was my outfit from Friday. We finally had springy weather and here's what I put together. I had worn this breezy blouse on its own with black pants previously and decided to try a layered look this time. I've mentioned many times that when all else fails, layer layer layer. Layering adds a little something to any outfit and in my case helps balance out my shape.

Purple Skinnies and Palazzo Pants



I'm taking my purple skinny jeans out for a spin again. It's still boot and sweater weather, at least for me.  I get cold easily so the sweaters have not been put away yet. I did go on a rampage and really got into the colored skinnies trend and I must say I have enough colored skinnies and I'm not sure if I'm liking the trend any more. White skinny jeans are still hot though, and that's a color I do not own. Are you still a fan of colored skinny jeans?

...I've had my eye on Palazzo Pants (I know, another trend to try) but I'm still on the fence with those. Here are a few I'm loving. I think they work better for hour glass and pear shaped bodies and definitely look better when worn with heels. I do like the jump suit options though. Yea or Nay?

Gingham and Stripes + {Mix it Monday Link Up}

Happy Monday everyone. I hope you had a great weekend. It's back to the grind and my brain is getting wired for more work, more possibilities and knocking items off my to do list.

When I purchased this blue gingham shirt, I had a difficult time styling it. The reason is it's a little too big. I got it in large from Old Navy to fit over my chest so it's big every where else. Surprisingly, I've been able to wear it a number of times. As you can see from my remix below, I make it work by layering. I may alter it later to fit better so that I can wear it alone.  Today's outfit was inspired by this pin from Serena Saga's blog.

Polka Dot Remix and $410 Up for Grabs {Giveaway}

We had unexpected snow two days in a row this past weekend and I thought I would take one picture while it was snowing so as to have a picture with snow effects. Two weeks ago, I did not take pictures because it was snowing but I liked all the snow effect pictures I saw in blog land and decided to brave the snow with this one.
Polka dots are still a favorite of mine. This skirt is really old and at some point I thought it was no longer trendy to wear polka dots. I paired it previously with a red top and here, I'm doing all black and white with this plain black sweater. A plain sweater is a great piece to invest in because it can be easily accessorized and paired with anything like I did here, and stretches your wardrobe.
