As the weather gets colder, we need to get ready for it. So I have started stocking up with ankle boots and OTK’s for this A/W season. This is one of my first OTK showcase for all of you. I chose brown as I am just into earth colors and neutrals lately. I just so love how it blends with the seasons foliage. It is also easy to pair with anything Fall styling.

As you all notice. I love coordinating my shoes and bags or even my top with it. I always add some pops of color too. That is the reason why I chose this brown OTK since I already have this lovely cross body bag given to me by my baby brother (he knows me well). To tame the color brown from my outfit, I chose to wear the white cozy sweater to balance the colors. I also wore my favorite sunnies which has the leopard prints to perfectly match the whole ensemble adding some coffee to the side.

As you may also notice I love shoes with heels. Since at work I am already to comfy wearing my tennis shoes in combination with my scrubs. My casual look, I tend to wear what I can”t when I am working. This flat OTK boots is also prefect if you are looking into it. How about you, are you also into OTK’s? What is your favorite color?

Happy Friday and I hope you have a fun filled and relaxing weekend! Thank you for stopping by and for all your lovely comments.

I really have a thing for dress and prints on it. Like I always say last summer. Dresses are just to easy to wear and to style because it comes in one piece. And again, Karina dresses has this wrinkle free and easy dresses that is hassle free to wear. You know when it is the weekend and we are on a rush to go to church. It is just so easy to grab and out it on, pair it with your best handbag and shoes and viola your done. I you are a mom, you will be able to relate to me. I want something easy to wear and yet stylish. As I have to get the two kids ready first before I get ready.

Another thing is, I always think that when you dress up for parties and other occasions. Sunday is also my day of worship and it is also special that we dress up for it. I may sound like I am preaching but it is just me.

So with pink polka dots and birds print, I just added this light pink Christian Louboutin pumps and this taupe handbag. Those two neutral colored accessories made this look so simple but chic. How about you? Do you also dress up for church? I just call it Sunday best dress because that is our day for church. Some people go different days. How about you, what is your Sunday Best dress look like?

I hope I was able to give outfit inspiration to all of you. Thank you for visiting my blog and have a wonderful day.

I know we are all excited for fall as the weather is just enough for layering and the leaves are just so gorgeous with all their different colors. As for me who grew up in a tropical country (Philippines in case you did not know) my first love is still summer, second is fall. So when we had this Indian summer weather where the temperature goes up the normal for this season. I took the opportunity to wear short sleeves again. I know most of you already have your fall wardrobe in full swing and hidden your summer outfits. I came prepared with this short sleeves as I know we still get some summery type of weather at this time of the year.

To make it still look like fall, of course I wore my favorite ankle boots from last year and thank God it is still being sold at target. I guess by popular demand. It has 1 or 2 inch heel but very comfortable to wear. And as you will notice to that I have been using this Zac Posen mini bag as I am just so obsessed with it and the color of it can be paired to anything. How about you? Have you brought out all your fall wardrobe or you still kept some pieces from summer that you still use?

I hope I was able to give you some outfit inspiration today. Happy Monday! Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments.

Aren’t you just loving this season? Just enough to bring on some layering styles. I am just loving this cocoon cardigan as it has this cut and look that is out of the ordinary. Making your simplest look a little bit chic. I have been wearing a lot of different cardigans lately. Definitely need it mostly early in the morning when going to work when it is really chilly. It is not just pretty but this one is really comfy as you can see it is a little think. It provides good comfort and warmth.

I also added this cute neutral mini handbag and that rocking booties to add some balance with the purple cardigan. I just want it to be as simple as that because the cardigan already glam up the look. If you also notice I love wearing heels. But If I know I will be out walking for too long. i always bring with me flat shoes just in case. It always needs to come in handy.

How about you, what are your layering styles? I am that person where I would love to try something as I do not like monotony. I also love adding some pops of colors to those monochromatic looks. You probably already know by now if you have been following my blog for a while now.

I do wish all of you a happy weekend and spend it wisely 🙂 Thank you for visiting my blog and for all your wonderful comments. Will see you all again on Monday!

When you are in doubt, just try a classic Light trench coat. It is timeless very easy and comfy casual fall look to pull off this season. I am loving the neutral colors I have here as it just blends it beautifully with the colorful tree leaves surrounding me. Isn’t it just an amazing style to wear. I actually got this trench from a thrift store back home in the Philippines prior to me moving here in the USA. I will never let go of this coat, like I said it is timeless and it is for keeps.

Pairing this coat with my casual white t-shirt and jeans combo adding a brown bag and watch to complete the full detail. It is just a simply chic style any person can do and can never go wrong. Light layering plus the color combo is just the perfect look.

I must say that having a light trench coat is one of the Fall staples or must haves you should have in your wardrobe. How about you? Do you have a timeless piece in your wardrobe that you still wear over and over again? Share them to me as I would like to get to know you too.

But honestly, I do believe I will be able to make it look like his work If I did have all the things I needed. What do you think about my make up skills here and my resourcefulness? I would love for you to give me a rating from 0-5 on make up skills.

Watch the link below to see how it is done and all the links to where to get the make ups and accessories are listed there too.

Jordan Liberty is such a talent! Fell in love with this one and to see more of him. Follow him on instagram at @jordanliberty.

Another grey color scheme here for me. Have you noticed that I have been wearing this color so much lately. It is a neutral color therefore it can be paired with anything. It is just so simple yet it is such a classy color for fall outfits. It is just like a diamond that was just polished and it got its luster. But even though I have been wearing grey very so often it has different styles that makes it unique. Just like this previous post here with the big bow and here with a 3/4 sleeve button down shirt.

This zip neck sweater tunic is so comfy and light and can also be paired with OTK’s too. It is just so stylish that it also has those 2 cute pockets in the front. The zip neck is just so gorgeous and it just added and edgy touch to the style. It is just a simple but chic look you would want to try. So I paired it with my favorite bag and booties that I have been wearing a lot lately too.

Happy Friday to all and stay tuned to my Halloween post this weekend and were I got that make up idea.

Thank you for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend to all as I know I will have as my husband and I are celebrating our 10th year wedding anniversary today. We are just staying local just a staycation for the two of us.

Happy Monday! Another simple outfit inspiration for all of you. There are a lot of simple fall casual look that you can wear. I chose the brown color scheme as it is an earth tone and perfect fall color. You can actually elevate this look by adding a scarf or you can also add a hat. Wearing and over the knee boots like this one will also add chicness to your fall casual style. This look you can wear strolling the mall, hanging out with friends to get some coffee. Also attending a blogger meet up.

I would have loved to attend the style collective sisters meet up in Alexandria, VA earlier today but I was scheduled to work because I will be off this Friday to celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary. This should have been my outfit for the meet up.

How about you? What are your fall casual staples? Share it with me through the comments below. I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and stay warm and take all the vitamins. As this change of season is also the season for getting sick.

Have a wonderful week ahead!

It really is sweater weather and OTk’s season already. This are some of the fall staples you should already have in your closet to keep you cozy this season. I have shopped a lot of sweaters from Tjmaxx and this is just one of them. Just to change the feel of black and grey I have paired this olive green sweater with my black jeans and OTK. Another one of my favorite fall color combo. You can just never go wrong with them together.

If you are on the not so tall side. These OTK’s are for you as it already will make your legs longer because of the color and together with the added wedge heels. The over sized sweater as well will make that impression. Like I have said before that darker colors will keep you warm.

Also, another benefit of wearing OTK’s with the sweater is that it will instantly elevate your simply looks to chic! Do you agree? The simpleness of the sweater plus the classiness of the Boots altogether is already perfect style. So make sure to shop these items and make room for them in your closet.

TGIF!! What are your plans this weekend? We have experienced the Indian summer here in the mid-Atlantic region and it felt like summer for a week. It will be back to the upper 60’s this weekend. Thank you all for visiting my blog and for commenting and have a lovely weekend to all of you.

Are you like me who is always on the hunt of pieces that is unique and stylish at the same time. It was love at first sight with this cute sweater with big bow and eyelet sleeves. Isn’t it so cute? I just wanna try something different and of course it is the sweater weather w=but we don’t want it to be boring just like that. I am glad to have found this cute detail to add some life to this regular grey sweater. Also knowing me, I have been wearing this black zip legging jeans a lot as it is super comfy and has a stylish pockets and cut. I have added my favorite old botties that I have worn a lot last year. I have added similar styles here.

My mind is full of grey hues, burgundy and camel colors…. If you have noticed it on my instagram account. This look is such an easy casual Fall outfit that is easy to pull. It is feminine with an edgy feel. I wore this strolling around the National Harbor where every time I go there. I would dress up or wear something like this. I hope I was able to give you some cute insights in terms of wearing sweaters.
