Best View of NYC

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I just all of you to know that to see the beauty of the whole Manhattan is to be on the other side. That being said is to be at Jersey City, New Jersey. As you can see from the picture below.

We already planned to visit NYC for the nth time since we were already close by. If you have been following me on instagram @simplychristianne then you would know that we attended my cousins wedding on Halloween. It was at Somerset, NJ which was an hour and 15 mins to get to the Big Apple, but it was bad timing. They had the New York Marathon so there were a lot of roads closed. That being said, I just thought about getting the best view so I asked our relatives to join us at Exchange Place, still in NJ to get the best shot of Manhattan.

Exchange place is also a nice area, it also feels like NYC but not as crowded. They also tall buildings and you’ll get to see lady Liberty from a far when you’re at the pier side. So if you plan to get the best view of the City when on land then this is the place for you to go. They also have restaurants around the area and they have this path train you can take which connects to the NYC subway.

As for the weather, it was really gorgeous as it was in the 60’s so I just wore jeans,  OTK boots and this cute pink sweater from Target. The whole family actually wore the same except for my so girly girly daughter who requested if she can wear a dress.

Hello world! Happy Thursday to all, so excited because this is my Friday. I will be off tomorrow to attend my cousins wedding this weekend. Today, I am wearing my favorite animal print during this season. It is very classic this leopard print scarf old from (HM) and shoes old from (bloomingdales), paired it with this knit sweater from (Target). Since I am wearing mostly in the shades of brown, I have added this cute floppy hat old from (Laila Rowe) to complete the look. Make sure that when you wear the hat your face can be seen. I love paring outfit in the same color family and adds one piece outside the same shade to neutralize the look.

This look is a good go to outfit this season. I hope all of you like this style.

Have a great day!

Simply,

1.) The 70’s Show Theme- This is actually a no Brainer for all the fashionistas there. We all now that this style is back with all those flared Jeans and hippie type outfits. It will be easy to find an outfit for this event. You probably already have an outfit in your closet Just like what I am sharing to you below. This outfit has been in my closet for years.

Bag (similar here and here)

Shoes (similar here and here)

2.) MTV Awards Theme- dress up impersonating any artist you like. I remember doing this few years back and I won a little prize by Impersonating Shakira. I do not have Blond hair so I used a wig. Or dress up like Taylor Swift and bring your guitar.

3.) Hollywood Theme – Dress up those iconic celebrity like Manilyn Monroe (wearing Little White Dress), Audrey Hepburn (wearing Little black dress)

4.) Mardi Gras – You can get all those colorful socks or head piece to add to whatever casual outfit you want to wear.

5.) Masquerade Party – All you need to get is a mask1, mask2 and wear your best outfit you have in your closet and you’re all done.

I hope these helps as I added some helpful links if you do not have any in your closet and just expedite the shipping. Most of the links I added are from amazon so if you are a prime member, shipping is free.

Happy Halloween! Have a nice week ahead.

Good morning friends, Greetings from Maryland! Just want to share this look from yesterday’s shoot. This is very special to me since this was the first time I wore an OTK boots. I have been wanting to have one and my husband just made it happen. Gave this to me as a birthday present. He actually just gave me a gift and this is what I bought.

I paired the boots with this old sweater dress that I got from Charlotte Russe. I looked so tall in these. I think it will be a good outfit if you want to look tall. It should specifically be a turtle neck long sleeved sweater dress.

This can be worn as just a regular outfit this season like for going out to the mall, dates or parties.

So, do you agree that this outfit makes you look taller? Share your thoughts friends.

Shop The Look:

Sweater Dress – old (similar here and here)

OTK (over the knee boots) – Chinese Laundry

Handbag – Forever 21 (similar here)

Happy weekend everyone!

Hello everyone! It is indeed another beautiful day here in our area. When we took this photo it was also a ice weather like this. I just want to share this minimalist look with a touch if chic ness adding this beautiful piece of necklace. You can never go wrong with a statement necklace to make an outfit standout.

Pairing an above the knee length dress with a riding boots is a good combo to keep you warm in a chilly weather. And the 3/4 sleeves is just a right length for weather in the upper 60s.

this are the type of outfit I usually wear around this time of the year. I always think about style and comfort. Because most of the times just to be stylish we tend to sacrifice the comfort.

Happy Thursday!

Simply,
