With the holiday season, I bet that many of us have many holiday parties to attend. Whether it be with friends or family, we all want to look our best. Below is a possible outfit inspiration for all of you!

Found this super cute dress on Black Friday at H&M on sale for only $10! I love myself a deal! Plus the dress looks like it has those christmas lights on it. I paired it with a Kate Spade bracelet, black tights and Turquoise ALDO heels.

Autumn Sun

Hey everyone! Hope everyone had a very Happy Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends. 

I wanted to share with you a couple of my purchases that I got during the Black Friday shopping madness! 

Black Friday Deals:
Talula Military Jacket (10% off at Aritzia) 
Striped Abercrombie & Fitch Dress (40% off at A&F outlet)

From my closet:
Enzo Angiolini Boots
Thrifted Dooney & Burke Purse
Rayban Wayfarer Sunglasses

I literally wore this outfit the day after I bought them. The Abercrombie & Fitch dress works perfectly with the green military inspired jacket from Aritzia. Which were both great deals. The dress was originally $40 but I got it for $25! The jacket was on sale for $100, but it was well worth it because I will get a lot of uses from it.

I'll post some Holiday Outfit ideas soon!

Shine in Gold

Sorry for the limited outfit posts :(

But finally a new outfit post! Maybe I can provide you with some outfit inspiration for this holiday season!

The Thanksgiving holiday is fast approaching!!! Time to feast on turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, and pie <3 It's also a time where we can all get a little dressed up for the holiday season.

My family and I are still unsure of where we're going to go on Thanksgiving. Either going to a relatives house or we're just going to stay at home. Either way, I'll be with my family and that's all that matters.

I may not know where I'm going, but I do know what to wear.
An all gold ensemble!
I kinda feel like I look like wrapping paper.

Best part is, this outfit cost me less than $50! Of course this doesn't include the shoes. The top is from Forever21 only cost me $17 and the embellished gold filigree print skirt was a thrift store find at Crossroads Trading Co for only $8.50!!!






Top: Forever21
Skirt: Crossroads Trading Co
Tights: H&M
Heels: Calvin Klein

Happy Early Thanksgiving everyone!!! Be safe, be happy and get dressed up!

Turquoise Bliss

Hello everyone! Sorry for the lack of outfit posts, oh the joys of working full time and commuting to work. It leaves me little time to post on my blog :( 

But this weekend I finally got to take some pictures! Sunday was a good day. The weather was warm in the late afternoon and I decided to wear this turquoise dress that has a peach graphic print on it. I accessorized it with a peach woven belt that way it goes with the color scheme. Also wore shoes that my lovely boyfriend got me from Cole Haan






Dress: Lush from Nordstrom
Shoes: Cole Haan Lunargrand Wingtip
Belt: Forever21
Clutch: Trouve from Nordstrom Rack


Are you guys ready for Friday?! I know I am!! BTW SF Giants are playing tonight, Game 7 vs. Cardinals!! GO GIANTS!

Textured Maxi

Hello Everyone! Something that makes my Monday bearable is taking pics of my outfit for this blog. Gives me something to look forward to since Mondays is usually tough. 

I'm obsessed with maxi's and lace and this dress has both. Found this dress at Urban Outfitters for $69. I like how this dress is deceptively sexy. It has a slight slit on the side and a see through lace back. There's just something about this maxi that I find romantic, girly and sexy. I also love the texture of this maxi dress. It combines lace material and heather gray cotton together so perfectly!

Only accessorized with my teal sunglasses because it was sunny outside. But I will definitely invest in some cute bracelets and rings. More reason to go shopping! 






Dress: Kimchi Blue from Urban Outfitters
Sunglasses: Target

This dress is a happy addition to my wardrobe. I think it's the perfect transition piece for summer to fall. 

What to do guys think of my outfit? Let me know!

Simply Playful

Hello everyone!

Sorry for the lack of outfit posts lately. I'm adjusting my work and family schedule so I have some time to myself to take pics. Sometimes I wish I had a sibling that can take quick snapshots of my OOTD's but for right now, I'm depending on myself, my Canon camera and a tripod. 

Also, this is my FIRST outfit post with my newly cut hair! I absolutely love this new haircut. It's easy to manage and super low maintenance.

EVERY girl needs a simple black skirt. I especially LOVE this skirt from Pink Stripes. The bottom hem has a think leather border all around. Paired this skirt with a printed black/white chiffon tank top. 

Simple yet playful outfit for a date with that perfect someone :D 




Top: Forever21
Skirt: Pink Stripes
Heels: Calvin Klein
Cluth: ALDO

4 more days until Friday!! We can make it!

Weekend Brunch

Hello everyone! 
Sorry for the mini break from outfit posting. But I've been battling with allergies, work and spending time with my parents because today is my Dad's birthday! 

I wore this outfit this weekend while spending time with my mom and dad! We spent the whole weekend eating and shopping. Quality family time is always good for the soul <3 

I'm still obsessed with maxi skirts and denim shirts so I decided to pair them together. My favorite obsessions in one outfit..what's not to love? Also, I found this Trouve clutch at Nordstrom Rack for only $34, originally $89! What a deal! This weekend was definitely awesome! 





Top: Bella Dahl from Nordstrom Rack
Skirt: Sag Harbor Petite thrifted at Crossroads
Shoes: Halogen from Nordstrom
Clutch: Trouve from Nordstrom Rack

The weekend is never long enough for all the things I need and want to do. Wish we all had 3 day weekends but we don't. Only 4 more days until Friday!!! We can make it :D

Going Out

Hey everyone! I'm SOOOO extremely sorry that I haven't been updating with outfit posts lately. Life has been so busy and hectic that I just haven't had the time.

I wore this outfit over the weekend and I just love it!





Shirt: Forever21 
Shorts: Nordstrom Rack
Heels: Zara Booties thrifted at Crossroads Trading Co.

So this is my first OFFICIAL outfit post on my new blog. I had to start a new blog because my previous blog "MiianneFashionDaily" wouldn't let people follow me and vice versa. 

Outfit of choice is a flower dress and jean jacket, accessorized with a pink skinny belt, teal necklace, sunglasses and heels.




Dress: Styles for Less
Jacket: Fire Los Angeles
Heels: Kate Spade New York

If you followed my previous blog, PLEASE follow me on this one instead! It does suck that I have to start over and build my followers again from scratch, but I'm up for the challenge. 

Thanks!

Lightly Dressed

Hello everyone!

This is going to be a SUPER quick post. Pairing a simple summer dress with a denim jacket is one of the easiest go-to outfits for anyone to wear. It will always be in fashion! I wore my white floral rosette espadrille heels to add that extra detail to an outfit.

*This whole outfit cost me $80





Denim Jacket: Fire Los Angeles 
Dress and Heels: H&M

Only 1 more day until our weekend begins! What are you gonna do?
