multicolored ruffled tiered top, $10
OLD Navy cuffed jeans, $14.99
unlisted bow peep-toe pumps, $10
Accessories : charm bracelet (n/a), twisted drop hoop earrings ($2.99), sterling watch (n/a)

Celebrities like Kate Holmes, Sarah Jessica Parker, Jessica Alba has been seen around town cuffing their jeans so I thought I’d do it too. It reminds of the fashion trend when I was still in college which I actually liked around that …read more

Mothers Do Wear Chuck Taylor’s

Mothers Do Wear Chuck Taylor’s

Let me explain the title first. The day after I cropped and put a collage together from the pictures of me wearing the Black Sabbath Hi Top Chuck Taylor (3rd picture), I checked the entries from the  Converse “The Doors” Sneakers giveaway and a comment from Joni made me smile.  Apparently her daughter told her that Mom’s don’t wear Chuck’s. She couldn’t be more wrong .

I’m a Mom of 2, a 10 yr old boy and 2yr old girl. Look at the pictures above, I’m wearing Chuck’s . I also have a pair of the black hi-top …read more

Under $50 Look : LBD & 2-Toned Heels

Under $50 Look : LBD & 2-Toned Heels

New Year’s Eve was actually my birthday as well. And for my birthday dress I wore a v-neck black dress with flutter sleeves, black tights, and 2-Toned strappy platform heels. The v-neck is actually made of lace with 3 tiny buttons. I took this quick shot with my NikonD40. My son was using the tripod with Hub’s Sony point and shoot digicam for his animated movie so I had to use the box of huge screen TV that’s sitting in the hallway. Hence my head not making it into the shot, haha. I didn’t have time to adjust the …read more

Under $100 Look : Cropped Cardigan Casual Look With Boots

Under $100 Look : Cropped Cardigan Casual Look With Boots

Here’s an Under $100 casual outfit for the Fall/Winter days where the snow doesn’t appear in the vicinity of your driveway. Or even farther . Places like LA, SD, and where I live, NC for example. I see celebs wearing tank tops and flip flops in Cali at this time of year. In my side, it’s cold but not cold enough to warrant a thick coat. So an outfit like this would make sense more.

Gray sequin bow cardigan, $24.80
Basic Racerback Tank top, $6.80
Soda Shoes Black Flat Knee-High boots, $27.99
Skinny Jeans, $22.80

Under $50 Look : Ruffled Tiered Top, Jeans and Flats

Under $50 Look : Ruffled Tiered Top, Jeans and Flats

I wore my ruffled tiered top this past Thanksgiving. We had our own intimate dinner at our house where I cooked everything by the way. Even if we were just in our house, that doesn’t stop me (or the family) from looking nice for the Holidays. Interestingly enough, I was going to wear the top 2 days before Thanksgiving when I had to go to Wal-Mart to pick up other stuff for the dinner. My husband looked at me that day and said, "Baby, that top is too pretty for Wal-Mart".  So I changed into a basic blue drawstring …read more

Dress & boots, my favorite combination for Fall fashion. Here’s an idea that I like and would probably wear this year. Add a cropped blazer or a trench coat once it starts getting really cold or for Winter.

Under $100 Look : Watercolor Floral Top & Trouser

Under $100 Look : Watercolor Floral Top & Trouser

Inspired by the tiny bit of shade of purple from the watercolor floral top, I came out with this Early Fall outfit. It’s not that cold yet so we can still get away with no cover-up. But once it finally cools down, feel free to wear a cardigan or a croped blazer over it. For now, enjoy the breeze and the purple pumps. *Rowr*.
Satin Watercolor Floral Top, $17.80
Wide-Leg Pants, $22.80
Purple round-toe pumps, $20.99
Purple Clutch, $14.80
Stretchy Multi-Bead Bracelet, $4.80
