Pucker Up!

February 14, 2014

1 Comment

Nothing pulls a look together better than a great red lip! Whether your a lipstick kinda gal or you prefer a tinted gloss, a red lip can instantly transform your look and make your lips so much more kissable! Think about it, what is sexier than a woman applying lipstick or lip gloss, puckering up and having that feeling of satisfaction once she is finished…umm nothing!

As Valentines Day approaches, here is my roundup of my favorite Red lip colors coming in a variety of shades and prices…making the classic red lip and easy ‘Do’ for every gal this season! Whether it’s a girls night out or a hot date night, trust me you can never go wrong with a chic red lip!

While I’m not afraid to admit I tend to always go for a ‘nude’ or neutral gloss, every once in a while I feel inspired to spice things up with a shot of red. I’ve always been envious of the girls who had the confidence to pull of a red lip…I was constantly worried that red simply didn’t match with my skin tone or feared looking like a clown or an old lady, but the trick to a perfect red lip is easy…find what shade works best for you. It can be a 99 cent brand or a designer brand, doesn’t make a difference, not all reds look good on everyone…find what works for you!

My personal favorite is ‘Red Haute‘ from Ulta…just the name won me over and the shade suits me perfectly (the one I’m applying in the pictures 😉 )!

Check out some great shades of red below and spice up your girls night or date night! 🙂

Killer Cobalt

This is one of my favorite outfits on the blog to date! As you know by now…color is a key part of my wardrobe and when I am feeling extra glamorous, I have a thing for faux fur, so when I put this outfit on I was in heaven!

I looked in the mirror and had a Carrie Bradshaw moment thinking all I needed was a girls night out with some cosmos and I am ready to go 😉 I have been walking a fine line this winter between wanting to dress warm and cozy but also wanting to look sexy and trendy…this look went for the later. I can assure you that I can’t walk out of the house in just this (yes, I actually have to wear a coat ugh, but as long as it’s Michael Kors I suppose I’ll survive lol), but once I get to where I’m going, this outfit is simply stunning.

One of my favorite things about my wardrobe and this outfit is that every piece is affordable…I never splurge except for on handbags ( hence my Louis Vuitton obsession), but when it comes to clothes, in order to have more options, I often times shop the sale and clearance section and that’s how every piece in this outfit cam about (minus the clutch…that’s a slightly different story 😉 )!

This clutch was given to me by my mom who received it from her mother as a gift from Louis Vuitton in Paris so it’s pretty legit, every time I wear it my mom never hesitates to remind me the history of it and ‘You better not loose it’! Well so far I haven’t and because i love it so much I had to add it to the glitz and glamour of this outfit!

Chic In Pink!

February 7, 2014

When I slipped into this outfit i fell in love…a flared out skirt from the Catherine Malandrino collection for Kohls, an elegant pink sweater, a chic quilted black bag and some classic black suede pumps…what more can a girl ask for to look classy, sassy and sophisticated!

I love this skirt because of the lace insert details in the pleats…even though I bought this from Kohls (on clearance I may add!) you would never be able to tell that from looking at it. That’s something I love about designer collaborations with retail giants…although the clothing and accessories are created with a lower price point in mind, they never skimp on style or quality!

In addition to swooning over this skirt, as always, I love a ‘Pop Of Color‘ (I think Brad Goreski is my fashion soul mate, bow tie and all) because even in the winter when women are seen wearing black from head to toe, I have a thing for standing out and making a statement 😉 so rocking this pink Old Navy sweater was a definite ‘Must‘!

And the best way to pull any look together, especially once you add some color, is with simple accessories…a chic black Rebecca Minkoff bag and classy black pumps! You can never go wrong with black accessories!

An MK Moment

The best way to stay cozy & warm during this polar vortex we are having here in NYC is with a heavy, yet chic coat that is sure to keep you snuggled up without giving up on style…This Michael Kors coat is the perfect combination of sexy, chic, warm and cozy…you can’t beat that!

It’s no surprise to anyone who knows me, that I love to wear pieces that are comfy and cute, this coat with these heeled H&M boots gives me that instant boost of sexy that every gal needs throughout the day. In my mind, all black can be one of the sexiest colors to wear, and this ensemble demonstrates just that.

A gorgeous jacket, stylish boots and your ready to take on whatever the day or night has to offer. It’s often times hard, in my opinion to feel ‘hot’ in the winter, but in this outfit I feel like I’m ready to take on the world and like I’m about to walk the runway at MBFW…now that’s confidence haha 🙂
