Layering with Chambray




Braided bun...I'm loving braids
Necklace: Elle (Kohl's)

Chambray Top: Aeropostale
Sweater: Forever 21
Necklace: Elle (Kohl's)
Skinny Cords: Old Navy
Boots: Nine West
Handbag: Michael Kors



What's up lovers!
Another freezing and windy day in NJ!  We were supposed to have snow but so far we've lucked out! 
I'm really not the layering type but for this particular outfit I decided to layer because It was FREEZING outside.  I love wearing my chambray top with just about anything, but I really like it layered over this sweater, or any sweater!  Of course adding a statement necklace is always a perfect addition. 

Here are a few Pinterest pics to inspire you!


I didn't even think of adding a blazer!  I have this navy blue blazer that would have been perfect.  Oh well...next time.


Hope you have a wonderful day!  Thanks for visiting!

A little Lace





Hey there sweets!  Hope your having a wonderful Tuesday!  I'm just trying to get back into the swing of things.  It's been such a crazy few weeks.  I was so excited to have plans on Friday with the girls.  It was my best friends birthday, and oh did I need a drink!  Hopefully March will be much better than the end of February and I can get back to posting more often. 

 Anyway, lets chat fashion.....I got this sweater at Kohl's a while ago, and I think the lace is so feminine and sexy.  I paired it with these metallic jeans just to add a little bling!   





Birthday girl!!!!!

Make a wish!

Hi there my sweets!  Happy Friday!  

Sorry for the lack of posts, but I promise to get back soon.  It's been a sad couple of weeks in my family.  The hubby's uncle passed away, and it's been pretty hard to focus on fashion.  He was such a positive inspiration to my husband, and to everyone in the family....it's a great loss! 
RIP uncle Danny!  "We only part, to meet again"

Hopefully next week I'll be back with some fun outfits for you.  In the mean time, here are some fun Instagram pics!

It's V-day week! 

I know there are lots of V-day haters, but I LOVE, LOVE Valentine's Day! 

Jewelry, chocolate, dinner, and some good lovin!  I'm in there like white on rice! ;)

  I'm trying to post a cute V-day outfit idea for you sweets, but I just haven't really planned it; and the weather has been super crappy.  I will try my best to do one before Thursday. #hopefully!  If I don't get the chance, I promise to share MY V-day outfit on Friday!

Since I don't have an outfit post, I figured I would share some fun Instagram pics instead!
