Why I love High Waisted Jeans

February 15, 2019 8 Comments

Hello Guys! I apologize for being MIA again on the blog here. I will try my best to keep up ones I have the energy. As I have explained before, blog is not my full time job and this pregnancy is really making me feel tired after a 40 hours a week work. It is really hard for me to find time as I also have 2 others kids and also a family I need to be with when I am awake because I am really always sleepy most of the time I am home. I believe it is because I frequent the bathroom at night time.

Now, I will talk about the important points why I love High Waisted Jeans. These are the multiple reasons why I do and why you do too.

I consider myself a pear shape because I do believe my hips are really wide for my top body and my buttocks and thighs are heavier than my top. Therefore, Hugh waisted jeans gives me good covergae around that area of my body and makes me feel longer just like the picture below.

2. They are comfortable because they are seated exactly at your waist line. Make sure you get good brand like this, this , this, this(where I can attest to because I shop there often). I haven’t tried this brand but I read that it is good.

3. It is easy to keep up specially when you sit. I used to love low rise jeans but every time I sit I have to pull them up to make sure I am not giving a free peep show if you know what I mean 🙂 You can see it on this third photo.

I hope I was able to give good insight about this and if we have same body type. Give it a try and if you wear them already, good for you.

Have a nice weekend and thank you for stopping by!

Simply,

Christianne

Extended Closet/ Blog Office Reveal

April 20, 2018 6 Comments

Extended Closet/ Blog Office Reveal TGIF and Happy Friday!! I have been looking forward to this moment sharing to all of you my extended closet/blog office reveal. Why did I call it as such? Because what you can see here are some of my favorite shoes and handbags that I really worked hard for to save so I can buy them, it took years for me to have this much stuff. So much of those explanations…

So this part of the house (spare room) has not been touched for a long time. It was an office of the previous owner and they were book shelves. I took the opportunity to turn it into my closet. This is every girly girls dream I should say. My sister in law was joking about it calling me a celebrity. It just so happen that our house already has these built in cabinets and we just repainted them added a chic bench and voila! It turned out really nice and this is were I get my inspiration and do my blog work. Wouldn’t you be inspired if you will be working creating your fashion blog post in this room?

I am also so lucky to have a very supportive husband and plus my father in law is here to help us remodel and re paint pretty much the whole house. Stay tuned on the next post as I will show you our basement living room and Mini Bar.

HM TOP (NOT AVAILABLE ONLINE) SIMILAR HERE

VINCI CAMUTO EYEGLASSES SIMILAR HERE

HM SKINNY JEANS

PRADA HANDBAG SIMILAR BUDGET FRIENDLY VERSION HERE

LOUBOUTIN DECOLETTE HEELS SIMILAR HERE BUDGET FRIENDLY VERSION HERE

If I will be in an office setting and casual wear is allowed. You will definitely see me like this. This is how I will dress for Mondays as it is cool and gives good vibes to start the work week right. Why I am saying this, it is because my regular work clothes are just plain scrubs suit. Total opposite of the one you see here. I should say this is my work clothes as a blogger. Now I am talking!

Let me give you some insights about me. Ever since I was small, I have been dreaming myself walking in beautiful clothes for work and wearing high heels. Maybe because I always see my mom all dressed up for work and she looked amazing. But then growing up I then realize that I want to do something different which is to be a doctor. So I took Physical therapy as a pre med course just in case I will not be able to continue medicine as it is very expensive. So I did become a PT which I also love doing as I still help patients and see most of them get better and get back on their feet. I have no regrets as I really enjoy what I am doing and it is a low stress profession.

So back to this look. For most of the casual look if you really wanna look like you are in business you really just need to add a blazer. Yeah? It is an instant upgrade to your outfit and plus you can never go wrong with a Prada handbag and red sole heels. I am not saying that you have to wear expensive items that is why I added those budget friendly version here, I just love wearing those investment pieces. This is just my #girlboss How about you? What will be your #girlboss look?

Happy Monday and thank you for stopping by, may all of you have a wonderful week ahead!

August 14, 2015 24 Comments

Hello friends! I have not been posting anything lately. I had a very bad cold over the weekend and is still recovering then yesterday my little boy was running a fever too. Good thing we are both better now. Thank God! So i brighten up this week. It is never too late to post an outfit that is really cute.

I have worn this dress to an evening party! I love that it is pink and girly girly. I’m still experimenting on my style. As you all know as a physical therapist, my everyday outfit is a scrub suit. That is why I love to express my inner fashionista in me on my blog.

I also thought about blogging this outfit because it reminded me of Jennifer Garner on 13 going on 30. Her outfit on the billboard for that movie was something like this. so cute!

I have you are all enjoying your week and excited for Friday!

Flowy Black Dress

Flowy Black Dress

As I was checking out my closet, because I have so many black dresses. I overlooked this one. This dress was given to me by my sister in law probably a year or 2 years ago, I cannot even remember.

It still looks brand new and it is such a nice flowy dress to wear this summer even if it is black. The fabric is so soft and you can tell from the picture that I enjoyed playing with it. It was bought in one of the fashion boutique in the Philippines. I believe all ladies should get a dress like this, you can turn this to an elegant evening dress just change the shoes to a strappy heels and you can change the clutch too.

Happy Wednesday!

Dress – (similar on the shop page 6)
Sandals – American Eagle Outfitter (similar on the shop page 6)

Simply,

Happy Monday friends! I do apologize for not being so active on the blog post. But if you wanna get personal I am always active on instagram as @simplychristianne. It was really hard for me to keep up and gather my thoughts last week since my mom left for the Philippines. She was with us for the past 6 months and she was really a big help. So my husband and I was adjusting on how we manage at home.. the kids and everything.

We took a short trip to Whitestation House, NJ to watch the Hot Air Balloon Festival and we decided to do a quick beach trip to Ocean city, MD which is only 3 hours away from where we live. I was feeling so happy because this is our first out of town trip this summer and when I was planning I was thinking of what to wear. I went shopping and got me this nice Stripes Dress which I couldn’t resist because it was on sale and under $20.

Details:

Dress – Gap

Sandals – Payless Shoe Source (old)

Hat – Forever21 (old)

Sunglasses – Forever 21 $5.00

Click on Shop to see the similar pieces I picked for you, maybe you are also in the mood for shopping.

Enjoy the rest of your day.
