ANNE KLEIN WATCH GIFT SET c/o

Are you Christmas ready? I know we are almost there and I am sharing to you a perfect gift to give for your love ones. It is this Anne Klein watch I got from Macy’s and I am loving both the watch and the bracelet.

What I really love about this Anne Klein watch is that it has a very nice packaging and it has an extra bracelet that comes with it. I comes in three different pieces here are the other ones… here and here. The person that will receive the gift might only think they are receiving just a watch but when they get to open the box, it will make them feel extra special because of the beautiful bracelet. You can get it from Macy’s, one of the best place to shop for the Holidays.

These great watch and bracelet sets are Deal of the Day Select $99 Anne Klein Boxed Watch and Jewelry Sets – Start: 12/16 -End: 12/17

Are you like me who like wearing dresses? Here is a classic piece to try on this Holiday and what makes this dress special to me is its sweetheart neckline. It gives you full coverage and like what  always say. All Karina Dresses are flattering to any body type. They are really soft and wrinkle free specially this cold Fall/Winter season where you will wear heavy coats over your outfits.

I added these black pieces to the pair with the dress to add more classic vibes. Those bundle bracelets that are tied with a ribbon and the velvet shoes and bag to top it all. This is something to wear everywhere you just have to change the shoes depending on where you will wear it. This look is perfect for date night or  a party with friends. If you add these ankle strap pump you can wear it for church. As you can tell if you have been following me. My style keeps on changing but it is mainly wearing dresses and a pair of jeans and I love me some heels.

I hope I was able to give you something tips and idea on what dress to wear this Holiday. I should also tell you there are other options other than red so watch out for my upcoming blog post to see more.

Thank you for stopping by and have a great week ahead!

Wearing leather all the way is something I have been envisioning myself trying. I finally did and it felt good. We did some black Friday shopping and it was so windy that day and I just wore the right outfit for it. That is probably the reason why bikers wear leather things because it blocks the cold for them.

This outfit doesn’t only look cute but it indeed worked as my shield for the wind that day. I tell you, from the jacket to the leather shoes, It felt very soft. Can you imagine wearing this shopping, I thought it will not be comfortable but it was.

The shoes I thought would give me pain, it did not. That is why I was able to walk from point A to point be of the Mall. I felt so accomplished that day. It will also be nice wearing a hoodie sweater and put the leather jacket over it or just by adding a scarf.

How about you, have you tried wearing leather all the way?

Happy Friday and have a wonderful weekend guys! Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments.

Have you ever tried wearing these pair of pants during the Holidays? Neither do I I bet you did not think about it. What do you think of how I styled it to make it as a Holiday outfit piece? These Palazzo pants are wide leg so it works like a long skirt and the color is cream so it is a neutral color and when I saw the Black blouse with metallic streaks on it. It really got into my creative mind like why not try them out.

I always think I cannot be looking like everybody else right? I wore a pair of black heels to match the top and the heels has a gold piece on it too. I ‘m really excited on how this look came out as I really thought I will not be able to make it work but I did. I also think it will work with velvet burgundy colors to match it.

Tell me your thoughts about it? I am welcome with all other ideas. Have you ever tried wearing a Palazzo pants yourself?

I hope I was able to give you an out of the box Idea for this outfit inspiration. Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

Growing up in the Philippines, it is the most wonderful time of the year for us and it is insane that we start decorating the start of BER months so it means it starts in SeptemBER. That is what I actually miss that is why I created this visual board of all things Christmas while watching a Christmas themed movie with a holiday scent after taking a shower and wearing all things Christmas themed cozy pj’s.
I am almost done decorating the inside of the house and tomorrow I will finish it up and also start decorating the front porch. I am also excited to get the kids their Christmas Pj’s, I actually wanna get a family set. I know it will be a Merry and cozy time of the year for our family and I wish the same for you.

Tomorrow is already Thanksgiving day. I just wanna share to all of you all the things that I am thankful and grateful in life.

I am thankful and grateful…..

For having my little family that makes my life so much fun, it is not easy but we make it work and be happy at the end of the day.

For all things in life be it good or bad. Why? Let me start with bad.. Bad things happens to me because it makes me realize the worth of things in life and it makes me stronger with the challenges it gives me. Good.. Because those are the things that gives me joy and happiness.

For being able to help other in my own ways be it my family, friend, co workers, my patients who get better after their therapy program and other people, being able to change lives in a good way.

and Lastly,

For being able to share my other passion in life and for all your support in making it happen.

I am a very thankful and grateful person. As I have seen both the good and bad aspects in life. I tell you, I have seen it all. It was funny, at work we were talking about things like this at work. Two of my co workers were telling me how positive I am in life and they wanna be like that because they said they know they always whine and complain about a lot of things. They were asking me how do I do that. I just told them, well, I came from a third world country and being in a first world country. I am just thankful and grateful being here were I don’t usually see a lot of poverty which separates families, a lot of people can afford to eat 3 times a day and things like that. There are just a lot of things to be thankful and grateful and those things I have mentioned are just some of them.

I apologize if I was so serious on the above sentences and here on a lighter note 🙂

My outfit! It is just about layering and how I added that block cape to make me feel warm and make it a perfect layering look. I have paired the grey OTK as it is a neutral color and plus my sweater is grey too. If you know me by now you can tell I love matching my outfit. I also used my favorite Zac Posen handbag which I carry most of the time these day. Just about right size, not too small and not to big.

May all of you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Day to celebrate with your love ones. Happy Shopping too!

Simply,

Christianne

When in comes to Holiday looks, It is not always calling for a party dress. You might just be going to a simple Holiday get together with family and friends and not everybody is to dress up. In this first look, as you can see I incorporated the red color on this simple Fall/Winter casual look.

                                        12345
In this look, I have came up with a red dress and added a touch of rose golds to add glam in this style. I would recommend wearing this if you are attending a party where you need to dress up. This dress comes with 2 other colors and is only $35 and both colors are perfect to be paired with all other items in this set.
                                                                           I hope I was able to give some outfit inspirations to create a perfect Holiday look.

Think pink for sweater is something that we really not do during this A/W season. Most of us tend to get the more common fall colors like mustard, burgundy or mostly earth colors I should say. But think about it this way. We can always incorporate some summer colors to our wardrobe. Just like what I did in this look. I am pretty much wearing all black and just happen to add pink to bring some life to this whole outfit.

These days a lot of fashionistas are breaking some rules and actually trying out things that were just a norm before. Like no white after labor is no longer true. It is just the way you style it and how you carry a look that makes a difference. Do you agree? So to make the all blacks not boring I chose to wear those distressed denims and added this very comfy ankle boots that has very low heel height with buckles to add some edgy touch. I also paired my black shiny leather bag with it to match the black color scheme.

This is just a simple look with a touch of chic and edgy feel. I hope I was able to give some outfit inspiration to all of you.

Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

I also love these other pink sweater styles if I can just have them all!!!

It is getting colder here in Maryland and that calls for a lot of sweater weather and coats. I have decided to add something different as I haven’t had this style before. I got this Faux fur shawl collar blue coat from my favorite brand US Boohoo. They were on sale so I grabbed the opportunity to get this. I was not disappointed when I got it in the mail as it is fabulous and cozy.

I wore it strolling Old town Alexandria this weekend and got compliments from this gentleman passing by. Since I know I will be doing a lot of walking, I wore this comfy black leather buckled ankle boots as it has low heels and it matches perfectly with the coat. I also wore the floral blouse just in case we need to stop for coffee and would need me to take my coat off to show of its beauty. I partnered my ever favorite saffiano bag since it is a neutral color just to add contrast to the whole look which is into the darker shade.

I know I will be wearing this coat multiple times and it is perfect for any outfit and fall style. How about you? What are your favorite coats?

Thank you for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments. May all of you have a fabulous week ahead.

Simply,

Christianne
