Happy Easter Monday my lovely friends! I hope you all had a good one. I am just SIMPLY THANKFUL. Because I received the result of my mammogram and it was normal. 2 weeks ago I went to my gynecologist for my annual check up. I also asked her about the discharge I noticed coming out of my nipples. I was already about 2 weeks the I have noticed it prior to my annual visit. The doctor was concerned because It is not normal to have it at this point. She did the breast exam and she did not see any lump. She also checked my hormones, so I guess it was just because of that.

I was so scared when they were doing mammography on me. It was my first time and to think that there are a lot of young people having to deal with breast cancer. All of that is running through my mind that moment while waiting. a lot of what if’s. Not just breast cancer alone as I lost both my grandmothers from liver cancer and leukemia.

So I just wanna share this to all of you to increase your awareness and to make sure that you are doing your self breast examination. It is very important for us females to check it every so often. As I always do to, that is how I noticed something different. Early detection is very good and prevention is better than cure. Our body needs our love and care not only by dressing up good like what we all always do. But make sure the live a healthy and fit lifestyle.

May everyone have a wonderful week ahead and be blessed! I am just so excited today also as I have a date night with hubby. We are gonna watch Superman vs Batman 🙂

Thank you all for stopping by and for all your sweet comments.

Hello lovelies! How are you doing today? I hope you are having a lovely day and weather like what we have here in Maryland. Today, I would like to talk about one of my favorite clothing line. If you have been following me on my blog. You will notice how many times I have posted outfits I got from Shein. Those blog post are not collaborations, I really bought them myself as I really love most of the clothes they sell.

Their clothes are very reasonable priced and stylish. Knowing me, I will invest my money more on bags, shoes than outfits as it keeps on changing every time. When I order from them, I usually get standard shipping which is 7-10 business days. I was disappointed on my very first order. I had to cancel it because it was taking forever. The reason was, it was the holiday and the items are coming from China. So I kinda understand it, so better make sure the items you are ordering are in the US for faster shipping and if you really love the items but they are in China. Just pay for fast shipping then.

As for the sizes, they run small. So better order one size up, but what I do is that I usually try to look on outfits who have reviews as they indicate there their weight, height and sometimes they have pictures. I really helps me a lot on deciding if that outfit is a buy.

That is the very reason why I don’t get tired buying clothes from them. This is Floral Maxi Dress is the very first gift I got from them as a blogger. I really cherish it, finally I got something free from the brand that I really love.

May you all have a great day and thank you for stopping by and for all your comments!

Simply,

Christianne

Happy Monday lovelies! How was your first day of spring? mine, we spent it at church for Palm Sunday celebration. Since it is officially spring, even though we did not have a Spring type of weather yesterday. Seeing those beautiful flowers blooming everywhere still brought joy to me. So I will be sharing with you this perfect Spring Maxi dress I received from Shein. I have been eyeing for this dress for a long time and so when they asked me to choose from their site. I chose this right away without hesitations and I was right.

This is below $25 but has very good quality material and very soft texture. it is actually thick, that is why I really love shein. If you have been following me on my blog. You probably noticed how many Shein


outfits I have posted since I started my blog. I am also obsessed with this and this and this.… I just can’t get enough.

Since the dress is in a darker shade, to tame the whole look I chose to wear this Light taupe shoes , bag and moto jacket (as worn here). I always want to make contrast on the color combo that I am wearing. it just looks perfect to me that way. This outfit is just so perfect this season. This is what I call comfort and style look.

I wish everyone a wonderful and blessed week ahead. Some of you might be heading fro their Spring break vacation. Make sure to be safe and bring back fun memories. Thank you all for you comments and for stopping by.

Happy Monday lovelies! How was your weekend? I hope you all had a good one well spent even though we lost 1 hour of sleep. I am actually super excited to get longer days because of this. This is what most of us have been waiting for, Spring! Agree? As you can see on the background all the beautiful flowers around me. Even though it is allergy season for me, I still love it! There is always an allergy medicine I can take anyway.

I am s excited to share this dress that was sent to me by Karina Dresses to try. When I saw their website and checked out the dress, I loved what I saw they are all super cute! I thought to myself, I couldn’t wait to style it. This dress I wore at Church this weekend. The dress is super easy to wear and very comfy. This is very flattering for all shapes and size! Easy to take care wash and dry, wrinkle free and the texture of the dress is oh so soft to the skin.

When we were doing the soot for this dress, I couldn’t resist twirling with it! As you all can see on the pictures. Highly recommended product, quality material. Don’t forget to visit their website at Karinadresses . Since 70’s style is in right now and means vintage, why not try out a 50’s style outfit like this.

May all of you have a wonderful, fun-filled and blessed week ahead and thank you for stopping by and for all your comments!  Spring break is coming soon…

Hello there Lovelies! I hope everyone is having a good week. I was supposed to post yesterday as scheduled but had to make up for today, been very busy from our recent short trip to the Windy City (coming soon on the blog).

I would like to share this 70’s style outfit I wore for a stroll in the mall. I scored this Denim dress from Asos since I know I have other outfit in my closet to go with it. I paired it with my old bow tie blouse and this very comfy wedge sandals (thank you again Famous Footwear!) . Not the typical Denim Jeans that you will see me wearing. I just wanna try something new and I think I made a right choice.

The weather this week has been in the 70’s and loving it except for the Spring allergies that comes with it. I hope you are all slowly picking up new spring outfit to add to your wardrobe.

May all of you have a blessed day and thank you for stopping by and for all your wonderful comments!

Flared Jeans + Pastel Blouse

NOV_0709NOV_0710 NOV_0709 NOV_0715 NOV_0711 NOV_0707 NOV_0704DETAILS: FLARED JEANS/ WEDGE SANDALS/ PASTEL BLOUSE  SUNGLASSES/ MK BAG/ MK Watch no longer available similar HERE

Good Morning from Chicago! Yes, I am in the windy City and will explore more later. I just wanna share this look I wore last week looking for the perfect birthday for Novel. We had a few Spring type weather last week so I was able to strut with this style. If you have been following me for a while now. You will notice that I love pairing my outfit. I paired mu watch, bag and sandals. Those are my accessories for this look. The highlight is really the Flared jeans and the pastel blouse which is on trend for Spring 2016.

The flared was just a perfect fit for me. I really love mossimo jeans from target. I actually have a lot of them now in my closet and I am not letting them go. They are for keeps as they are soft stretch and very comfy. With this flared jeans it was the same experience love at first sight and fit. No doubt I am gonna look for more denim style for this spring/summer season.

As for blouses I have been looking for this pastel colored ones which are really Spring perfect! Best material is Chiffon for me as they are very soft specially when that Spring chill hits you. It just felt so good.

I also would like to thank famous footwear for giving me a gift card as their gift for hardworking moms like me. Thank you for appreciating us, they also give another card for me to pass along another hardworking mom. I gave it to my friend who also is same like me with her kids.

I  can’t wait for more beautiful weather ahead of us.

May all of you have a wonderful week ahead and thank you for stopping by and commenting. I hope I gave you some spring outfit inspirations.

Spring 2016 Wishlist

Spring 2016 Wishlist

As Spring 2016 blossoms, my wardrobe dreams are filled with delightful items that capture the season’s essence. Among these, the perfect bag and shoes top my wish list. Their versatile colors are not only ideal for spring but can also be styled year-round, making them worthwhile investments.

A gingham dress is buzzing as a spring fashion trend this year. Its timeless pattern and fresh appeal make it a must-have for any wardrobe. Pairing it with a chic pink blazer adds a touch of elegance and sophistication, perfect for both casual outings and more formal occasions.

To complete my outfit, I adore the idea of pastel color nail polish. A set with various shades is essential, allowing me to switch up my look based on my mood. Pastels are quintessential for spring, adding a subtle yet charming pop of color to any ensemble.

Additionally, a beautiful Daniel Wellington (DW) watch would be the perfect finishing touch. Known for their sleek and classic designs, DW watches are both stylish and functional, making them a great accessory for any outfit.

I hope you are having a wonderful day and wish you a lovely weekend! Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments. Your support means the world to me.

Happy Wednesday Lovelies! I hope you are all enjoying your week. I am just thankful for this past few days that we have given a spring like weather were we can wear less layers. I am so done with winter! I know most of you are because of the brutal coldness.

This look I wore at church and worn it two ways, The first look with the blazer is the one I wore at church as you can see on the picture that this dress has an open back. I bough this dress from our trip to the Philippines. But Luckily I was able to find a very similar style if you all are interested to know. I really love this dress because of its good stretch. The first look can also be a business attire, Do you agree?

The second look here is more fun. I just took of the blazer and put on those very cute sexy heeled slippers (that I am really obsessed!) but they sold out quick, the only color left is red which is also a fun look. This can be worn anywhere as a cute girly girly casual style.

I hope I inspired you with this look and may you all have a great day and rest of the week. Thank you for stopping by and for all your comments.

Different Shades of Pink

NOV_0573NOV_0578 NOV_0577 NOV_0576 NOV_0574 NOV_0572

DETAILS: BLOUSE/ JEANS/ HANDBAG/ FUR SHOES in RED  check out my instagram post for the link on the exact pink item.

Happy Friday lovelies! Shades of pink are on my thoughts and I finally get to wear those new spring hauls I’ve been posting on my instagram. Spring is really fast approaching that the temperature is rising little by little. As you can see been wearing these blush pink blouse, the material is very soft (chiffon) but I suggest you wear a lighter bra for it not to be obvious. I paired the cutest pink fur slippers from ASOS which I am currently obsessed right now as they are stylish but below $30!! You can wear they dress up or down! I already have an upcoming outfit that I will pair this slippers on. And to add life I chose to wear this blue jeans so I don’t look very pale, just to balance the tone of colors. This look is a very spring casual and can be worn anywhere. If the weather gets cold you can also add a white blazer or trench coat.

I am so ready for spring and actually been trying to update my wardrobe! The best part is we get to have longer days coming soon, the flowers bloom and it is not too cold anymore. I am not looking forward to the allergies though! But hey! I will still take spring than Winter 🙂
