Casual New Year’s Eve Outfit
Happy Christmas Weekend! Can you believe it’s already here?!?!? I took a few days off work this week to finish up my holiday shopping and have a spa day. I think everyone should schedule a little mini spa day during December. I left feeling so refreshed and ready to continue tackling all the holiday things.
With Christmas pretty much here, it’s time to start planning the perfect NYE outfit. My plans tend to be a more low key, casual night at a friend’s house, so I love a casual New Year’s Eve outfit idea. I went with the super chic all black and this gorgeous gray vest to dress the look up a little and keep that super chic vibe.
This vest was one of my sale splurges during Black Friday from Club Monaco. I have been searching for a great classic blazer style vest I could use to dress up an outfit or pair with my spring dresses to make them more office friendly. I kept landing back on the Club Monaco site. So when I went to order my trench coat, I also checked out the vest section.
This gray color is even more gorgeous in person and is going to pair perfectly with spring pastels. I will be sure to style it again when the Spring weather hits. I also love the length and overall fit. I think it hits at just the right spot on my 5’3 frame. I opted to size down and order an XS to achieve a more fitted look. It comes with a belt, but I don’t plan on wearing it that way.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope every one of you has a very Merry Christmas weekend!

Date Night Outfit: Red Deep V Blouse & Link Up
Hello friends! Do I have the perfect date night top for ya’ll today or what? The color red is totally having a moment right now and is a current color trend. Although, I feel weird calling the color red a trend, because I feel like red is always in style. It’s the perfect power color to wear to stand out or keep the attention of say your hot date. 🙂
One of my favorite date night looks is subtle sexy. This red deep v blouse is so perfect for that vibe. The plunging deep v and little shoulder slits show just enough skin in the right places for a little sex appeal, but overall you are really pretty covered up. I always feel like people think sex appeal means show as much skin as you can get away with, but I love little peeks in just the right places.
This top comes in a few color options, but I could not resist such a gorgeous style in this bold red shade. Black skinny jeans were the perfect pairing to complete my date night look. I think this outfit would be cute if you were meeting someone for drinks.
Also, I love pairing booties with skinny jeans, but I feel like these pictures don’t show just how cute the skinny jean tucked into a bootie can be. My main tip is too make sure the jean is a more tapered fit at the ankle to prevent to much bulk and risk making the ankle look bulky. I still haven’t had these jeans hemmed, so that’s probably why it looks off to me. #procrastinator I don’t want to have to give them up for a week. I wear them too much.

Happy Friday!! I’m so excited because after today, I will be on a LONG 4 day weekend!! It’s going to be filled with a good mix of celebrating and relaxing. I can’t wait. A few weeks ago, the hubs and I made our own little 3 day weekend and headed down to Galveston, TX. It’s just about an hour south of Houston. I love living so close to a beach vacation spot. It’s perfect for weekend getaways.
Today’s outfit was inspired by and shot on our trip. Planning outfits for a beach vacation can be easy, swimsuits and a couple sundresses, but what about what to wear on a vacation date night? I always pack a simple cute top and my white jeans when we head down to the beach. It’s an easy ensemble that also looks nice in case you decide to eat at a no shorts, no flip flops restaurant. Classic black and white always looks a bit dressier and sophisticated chic. Toss on a few gold accessories and you are ready to go!
If you wanted to stay away from heels while on vacation, you could also pair this with wedge sandals or a nicer flat sandal like this one or this one. Even a basic flat with a cute little pop of leopard would work with this look.
Ya’ll I’m OBSESSED with this black strappy cami. I have been searching for the perfect fitting cami for years that was also affordable. I can wear a normal strapless bra with this one and it doesn’t show, It’s not too loose so when I bend over everything is not on display, but it’s also not too tight either which is nice for overindulging or a bad sunburn. Plus, I like the length of it. I decided to go with an XS because I’m a bit smaller up top, and I find that fit my size just right. I’m so in love, I ordered the red and purple too when they were on sale this week. 🙂 PS – All 3 colors are still on sale too!!
I hope you all have a fabulous and safe 4th of July weekend! Thanks so much for taking a bit of time out of your day to read this little old blog of mine. I really do appreciate it and all your sweet comments so much!

Hello Ladies! I’m sharing a look today that you can probably recreate from items already found in your closet. I feel like you can never go wrong with a chic all black outfit. I have mentioned it before, it’s one of my go to ensembles when I’m not sure what to wear.
You can go two ways with this one and either add in small pops of color or add some striking metal statement jewelry. This necklace is the same chain material and color as my statement fave bib (previously seen here), but this one is lighter and a little less intense. The large pendant at the bottom is some fun added sparkle to the necklace. It really gives it that gorgeous chic look. This is a great statement necklace to pair with a plain solid color tee and jeans or a crew neck dress too.
Also, I have to talk about these shoes. They are crazy comfortable!! I bought them because I needed a new black work pump. I love the chic sophistication of a pointy toe d’orsay heel, and this pair was on major sale. You can’t see it in the photos, but they have a really cool laser cut detailing to them. I think this detail is also what makes them so comfy. It allows the material to stretch a bit for comfort without being to loose. If you need a new black pump, I highly recommend these comfortable black heels. The fit for me was true to size, and they also come in pink.
