Time to relax and unwind and what better way to do it than by wearing some comfy jeans, a loose sweater, and spiked sneakers. I just received these sneakers and I purchased them through eBay. I had been looking for them for about a year and almost gave up hope. I cannot wait to wear them again!
Thanks for reading and I hope you have a fabulous weekend!

Pink Boots

Grey Bomber Divided by H&M, Top Zac Posen for Target, Black pants and Ring Forever 21,  Pink Kallee Suede Boots Steve MaddenI managed to take this photo right before the rain came down!
I have been super busy at home baking cupcakes for an event on Monday and spending time with my family. It can be difficult to manage sometimes, but better me posting late than never!
I have worn these boots before, and it is typically with tops that have a similar shade of pink so that both articles of clothing pop. I love pink and these boots are one of two pairs that are not black or grey that I own. They are very comfortable and I own them in black too! I would own them in very color if I could because they are so versatile and cute!
Hope you are having a great weekend and I will be posting my cupcake pictures on Monday once the final product is assembled, so stay tuned!

Dinner Date

Sheer Navy Marlabis Silk Blouse Diane Von Furstenberg | Gold Necklace Subversive for Target | Navy Beanie, Black Skirt,  Black Leggings, Gold Ring Forever 21 | Zeda Black Boots Madden Girl | Patent Cross Body Bag Mulberry for TargetThis outfit is from last month. On Sunday after the magazine release party I treated Mando out to dinner as a thank you for all his help and support with the blog.
We went to Angeline’s Louisiana Kitchen to try the restaurant, and New Orlean style food, for the first time. The food was excellent and did not disappoint! We ordered hush puppies, jambalaya, voodoo shrimp, and beignets!
I don’t normally review restaurants, but this place was so good it has become my favorite restaurant now. I loved the atmosphere and the food was excellent.
I tried to dress trendy and feel like I succeeded with the beanie and necklace. It felt appropriate to wear dark clothing in a candlelit place.
What do you think of the outfit? What would you wear on a dinner date? Let me know below or through Polyvore!

The Winter Cape

Grey Cape Jou Jou | Black Jeans, Grey Knit Beanie and JADORE Double Ring Forever 21 | Black Sweater (Underneath) New York & Company | Grey Buckle Booties Madden Girl | Black Hobo Purse Coach
This was my Sunday outfit. My sister, mom, and I spent the day shopping in Sand City. I am wearing a cape that I borrowed from my mom’s closet. The booties are borrowed as well from my sister’s closet!
I wore the cape being aware that having a lot of volume up top meant everything else would need to be fitted. I would like to wear the cape again with a pencil skirt and heels, or a sheath dress. I love that I took a risk with something I would not have considered wearing before, but it was well worth! Next year I will be open to taking more risks too!
What resolutions are you thinking about for next year? I will share more of mine tomorrow! Thanks for reading!

Heart Print Hoodie

Black Pea Coat, Black Jeans, Gray Beanie, Panda Pendant, Heart Ring Forever 21 | Grey Heart Print Hoodie Pink Victoria’s Secret | Grey T-Shirt Wet Seal | White Leather Sneakers ConverseThis is a casual outfit from 2 weeks ago.
I typically go for looks that make me look like a “sophisticated” career woman to work, but every now and then I just want to roll out of bed and get through Friday. It was another chilly day and I am basically living in the same Kenneth Cole Sweater I wore yesterday, so bringing this post to light was also necessary. The layering is perfect for the cold weather, and I looked perfectly hipster at my desk drinking coffee and wearing my Ray-Ban computer glasses.
The hoodie is a thrift store find and I love the fun heart print! I had a matching ring to complete the look. What do you think? How would you wear this printed hoodie?

Ice Skating

Red Plaid Jacket Forever 21 (here) | Dark Wash Skinny Jeans Forever 21 | Grey Sweater Top Kenneth Cole | Black Scarf Coach | Grey Gloves Hot Topic | Suede Black Boots and Black Ruffle Bag Steve Madden | Grey Earmuffs Material Girl
Today my sister wanted to take the kids – our niece and nephew – ice skating, so we drove up to Monterey Bay to skate near the Portola Hotel & Spa. My sister, niece, and nephew skated while Armando and I watched from the sidelines and took photos. Since my sister and I share the same shoe size I was able to take her place for a bit and skated with the kids.
For my outfit, I picked out this red buffalo plaid jacket from Forever 21 and paired it with a Coach scarf from my sister’s closet. It was very chilly, and I still felt cold despite wearing my gloves, earmuffs, and scarf. To warm up we ate clam chowder at a nearby restaurant. It was the perfect way to end the afternoon after skating for a couple of hours.
