As a fashion/style blogger. We want to portray what we really are passionate about. I was thinking of a Halloween costume that will not take up to much time to work on and something that I already own. Being me, I though about Audrey Hepburn look from her movie Breakfast at Tiffany’s  

I just adore how classy the look is and also my love for a little black dress. As you can see I did not have all the required accessories to complete the look here as I was missing a mini tiara, pearl necklace and and the long cigarette holder which you can buy in a bundle here.

This can also be a DIY costume as most of the time you may have these items handy with you at home right. I just forgot to pack them when I was preparing this look for my photo shoot.

What do you think? Were I able to give justice to it? I just love how it turned out and how easy it was to pull in this one.

Thank you for stopping by.

Fall Style in my Plaid Coat as one of the Fall trend I am loving, Already featured a Plaid blazer few weeks ago and this one for cooler temps. What I love about this coat it that length, it gives enough coverage and also will still be able to show what you are wearing inside. It looked like an over sized coat for me so I recommend you size down. But me personally, I kinda liked that effect on me. I was actually thinking on adding some pops of red but totally forgot to bring in the hat.

This coat is a great cover up both to dress up or down. Another style is wearing mid calf or OTK boots with it. Great plaid print like this adds up some powerful vibe on an outfit. I always wanna try something different and just mixing it with my old outfits that are classic. You don’t always have to buy new things from head to toe. Always invest on something that you can wear over and over like the black dress I am wearing here. You can’t go wrong with the little black dress. This plaid trend is the one that I am really embracing this season.

Have you invested on some plaid styles this season? I am interchangeably doing plaid and animal prints.

Thank you for stopping by and see you again on Wednesday! Stay tuned for my DIY Halloween costume….

Wearing Pink Sweater Dress for Breast Cancer Awareness Month as I want to show my support because I have friends who were cancer survivors. And also know some co workers who lost their loved ones because of it. To me any type of cancers are just the same. They all need attention and more research to be able to find cure so we don’t see people suffering from it. I personally experienced worrying so much about this because I had an abnormal discharge on my left breast. Got the mammogram and ultrasound and came back negative. After a year, I was experiencing some feeling of discomfort on the Right breast and got it checked by the doctor and no lump was found.

I was so happy about it and I never stop doing my monthly breast self examination. I know it is very important for prevention. Big C or cancer is so bad that I lost both my grandmother from it, my paternal grandmother was from liver cancer and maternal grandmother was from leukemia, she even died on my 14th birthday.

So today, I am proud wearing this pink sweater dress. It is just so perfect for fall and I know by wearing it that I stand for something. I also loved pairing pink and grey, they are just the perfect combination.

Business as Usual in Tuxedo Dress to welcome this new week with new set of goals and new adventures in everything that we do. On Mondays, we shouldn’t be dragging right? So I chose to wear this for some inspiration for us to feel strong and ready to take on the week like a true #girlboss. I do believe you feel the greatest when you look good because it makes you feel good. I also felt powerful wearing this Tuxedo dress, this is actually sleeveless and just added a long sleeves shirt inside.

We should all get excited for Monday even though our weekend was short but sweet. We are lucky to enjoy the weekend because we had a fruitful weekday right? Ooops, sorry for preaching. I really meant on talking about the the whole outfit here. So let’s get back to this look…. I really loved this for its perfect length and style for Fall Business look. Do you agree? Very easy like I can almost say I am the female Steve Jobs who did not think too much for the outfit and just went all black. But knowing me, I had to add some pops of colorful thing and came up with my pink bag.

I hope I was able to give some good outfit inspiration and would appreciate if you share this post. Thank you for stopping by!

Fall Trend: Snakeskin and Leopard Prints

Fall Trend: Snakeskin and Leopard PrintsSHOP THE LOOK:

LEOPARD PRINTS: 1 SHOES 2 DRESS 3 BAG 4 JACKET

SNAKE SKIN PRINTS: 1 DRESS 2 SHOES 3 JACKET 4 BAG 

These prints are neck to neck on the fashion scene. I have seen different styles of it from head to toe and I am so loving them. I really would love to try wearing a snake skin skirt just like the one @walkinwonderland was wearing. It is such a classy print and style and for the leopard print. I love the set that @songofstyle was wearing in Paris Fashion week.

Below I am showing those prints I wore from last year.

In here I was wearing those snakeskin boots from Boohoo that I still have and still wearing.

And in here the leopard print coat from Target.

Who wouldn’t want to have these prints right? They are classic Fall staple and will never get tired of wearing them. I have seen a lot of different style out of this print and you just have to wear your confidence with it. I guess we should all need to own every piece of this print and we can always recycle them as they always make a comeback.

Have you worn this print already? If yes which kind did you wear? I wanna hear you share your outfits too and would love to see how you styled them.

I hope you like this post and may you all have a wonderful weekend and thank you for stopping by!

Mustard Yellow Dress for Fall is one of the staple colors I love wearing. And if you have noticed from the recent New York Fashion week. There were a lot of yellow on the scene with the new styles. When I saw this dress I fell in love right away and I already know what I will be pairing with it. Since this dress was short sleeves, I may have to wear a jacket and thought that this Chicwish faux suede one is a good combo. The wouldn’t be complete without pairing the same shade for the boots.

I am just loving this color combination as it truly represents the fall colors. It always fascinates me how they change colors just like that. I wore this over the weekend when it was in the 70’s and did not need the jacket when out under the sun but when under the shade. It started to feel a little chilly to me and the jacket came handy.

That is the reason why I love wearing jacket in the Fall because you can always put it on when needed and take it off when not. I hope I was able to give some Fall outfit inspiration for you. Thank you for stopping by and see you again this Friday!

Black Lace Dress for Fall Special Occasions like weddings, fall festivities, fashion week styling and more to wear dress like this. I was invited to go to DC fashion week which was last week and I was so excited to go. I literally looked for a dress that truly represents my simplychristianne brand and found this Black lace dress. Unfortunately,  I I wasn’t able to go as I wasn’t feeling well. If I went, I would have worn this dress.

It was a cocktail party attire and in a heart beat when I saw this dress, this was the one that I have been looking for. If you have been following me for a while you know that I really love lace dresses. This style is perfect for the fall weather, It gives the right coverage for the chill and the style is so chic, do you agree?

I wore my old pair of Jimmy Choo and paired it with a pink clutch to add some pops of color to it. That is how I balance my color styling on all of my outfits. This dress is so flattering and I love the white floral detail to add a touch of class.

I hope you like today post for outfit inspiration for Fall. Wishing you all a good week ahead.

As for this jacket, it is truly chic and comfy and really worth the bucks. As you can see I was wearing a very basic outfit with just white t-shirt and jeans. But when I added this jacket, my style leveled up right away. This is truly a game changer for my simple outfit that day.
