New Year’s Eve Party Style Inspiration for those of you looking for fabulous outfits to welcome the New Year in a stylish way. Here is another favorite, another love ruffle jumpsuit. If you have noticed I have been wearing jumpsuits on any given season, It is just so stylish. The only downside of it is you have to take everything down when you need to use tot restroom. I suggest that if you frequent the restroom then this style is not for you. But if you still wanna look good and you don’t care about the undressing part ti=o use the restroom. Yes, girl get this jumpsuit!

I myself frequent the bathroom a lot but it still did not bother me to wear jumpsuit. I really love the style of it and I am always into outfits that are one and done. I really do not have to think to much what to pair from top to bottom. The only thing I need to add here is a chic coat or jacket and one thing that came in mind is a faux fur coat.

I hope I was able to give you inspiration and insight about this look. Thank you for stopping by.

Everything Cozy for the Winter Weather

December 14, 2018 No Comments

SHOP THE POST

SOCKS 2. BEANIE 3. HAT AND SCARF SET 4. BATH ROBE 5. THROW BLANKET 6. FLEECE JACKET 7. COZY SLIPPERS

Everything cozy for the Winter weather to help you survive the cold and still be chic. There are a lot of things you should invest in during this season. These are the items you should have as they will be overused if you know what I mean. If it is cold outside most likely you will stay indoors most of the time. So definitely you will live in these items specially the robe, cozy slippers and or throw blanket to make you feel cozier when you are by the fireplace and watching, binge watching you shows.

I personally wear the robe, cozy slippers all the time and since my family loves doing movie night, I invested in a throw blanket. The kids have one each and I myself, my husband just shares with us whoever is willing. You know men, they think they are though. lol!

Beanie, socks, fleece jacket are also another combo. I used to wear them when we used to rent a basement when we first moved here in the US. Since basements are always the coldest part of the house. These items were a must for us.

I hope this guides you on what to invest on during the cold season.

Thank you for stopping by.

Partly Glam in Sequins Romper and be the highlight of every party as you shimmer your way into your Holiday party celebrations. I am always into trying things now since I started my blog. I have built my self confidence and now capable of wearing anything I want without thinking of other peoples judging looks.

I have been wanting to wear sequins dress or romper and when I found this gem. I knew I needed to get this and it fits good and feels good. This is something I would wear if the theme for the party is all about glam. You will surely bag the award for best dressed if you are wearing this if there is such a contest. The Valentino shoes added more of the glam with its rock stud style.

I remember me dressing up as Shakira during our office Christmas party and also had to prove them that I am imitating her and they made me do her dance. OMG! I have no video of it back then I do not feel bad 🙂

Are you attending any glam party this year? If not you can still wear this or share this look to someone you know looking for some outfit ideas.

Thank you so much for stopping by!
