Interior Decorator

When: Wednesday February 23, 2011

What:
Patterned dress: H&M
Blue Motorcycle jacket: Forever XXI
Beige pumps: From this seller on eBay
Off-White Liz Claiborne purse: Borrowed from my mom
Braided necklace: Present from my boyfriend (From Filene's Basement)

Where:
Met with an interior decorator that will be remodeling my office and went out with some friends at night to enjoy some delicious hot chocolate and funny conversation.

Comments:
I love how bold today's color combo is, don't you? Something about this dress always makes me want to pair it with another bold color. I have even paired it with mustard!

I decided to go with this outfit today because I was meeting with an interior decorator and wanted an outfit that personified "me". I like to describe myself as a happy, bold, colorful person and I feel that this outfit demonstrates that. So hopefully the decorator got a feel for my style so that she can decorate my office appropriately.

If you had to wear an outfit that personified "you", what would it be like?

Challenging heels

When: Tuesday February 22, 2011

Orange dress: Forever XXI
White collar shirt: Conway (Panama)
Patterned heels: La Onda (Panama)
Mustard purse: Borrowed from my mom

Where:
Went out to lunch with some friends.

Comments:
I always feel good when I'm wearing orange. I feel even better when I'm wearing an orange dress for the first time... ok, ok, I always feel pretty good. What can I say, I'm a happy person... I can't help it!

Anyway, back to the outfit. I wanted today's outfit to be about these shoes. I really love the safari print on them! To be completely honest, they are one of those shoes that are very difficult to walk in without falling down. I usually have no problem walking in heels but these babies are definitely a challenge! My solution is to wear them only to events that don't require a lot of walking such as dinners or lunches... Problem solved!

Do you have any shoes that are hard to walk in or uncomfortable but that you wear anyway because you love them?

Comments:
Light pink paired with light blue? I sure am a girlie girl! I really love how innocent and cute today's outfit turned out. The pastel color combo, the ruffles, the lace... it all really looks girlie and young, but I love it!

Plus, this skirt flows beautifully when I twirl... so naturally, me being the happy girl I am, I twirled around with joy :)

As I mentioned two Monday's ago, I am participating in a challenge called Fabulous in February! For those of you that don't know (or have a terrible memory like me... oops, I'm supposed to be writing good things about myself, not bad things... hehe), the challenge consists of writing three things I love about myself each Monday of February. For today, I thought I would write about the three physical things I love about myself:

1. My favorite part of my entire body is my eyes. They are green with yellow in the center and I'm very pleased with them. I think all color eyes are beautiful, don't get me wrong, but I love my color and shape because it just seems very me.

2. I like that I'm curvy. I know I have more curves than I should have because of all the weight I gained in college, but I'm still very happy with who I am and what I look like. I have learned to accept myself just the way I am so I have grown to love my body shape.

3. I love my hair. I used to have TERRIBLE hair... I do mean TERRIBLE. When I was younger, my family joked that my hair looked like hay from a barn (in their defense, it really did! hehe); it was very dry, mistreated, and above all, very very frizzy. But as the years went by, I learned how to manage and take care of my hair... now I really like it!

So those are my three things for today... I hope you all had a wonderful Monday!

Is your style very girlie and feminine or is it more sexy? How would you describe your style?
