Hi! ModCloth recently contacted me to participate in their Uniquely You campaign.  The challenge was to build an ensemble using up to seven additional pieces around one featured piece. A lucky winner will be picked on their Polyvore page. This week's featured piece is their Lead by Example dress! I love this sheath dress; it's sophisticated, simple and looks super comfortable. When styling their Lead by Example dress, I looked for pieces that would complement the style and color. I wanted to create a work friendly outfit that can easily be transitioned to night, suitable for a business dinner, date or drinks with the girls. I decided to pair it with a funky black & white blazer, heels and a scarf and bag to add a punch of color. I love that ModCloth has items for every kind of girl. How would you style this dress?

Getting Ready for Spring

Outfit Details:

Dress: New Look / Denim jacket: Gap / Tote: Longchamp / Shoes: Steve Madden / Earrings: Aldo / Necklace: Jeweliq / Bangles: Alicia Marilyn

Guess what? Spring is almost here! In just a few more weeks we'll be basking in warmer weather. No more boots and heavy coats, I for one, can't wait! I've already started putting together some outfits for Spring. Today, I'm featuring an outfit I'm planning for a weekend getaway with my hubby. Maxi dresses are so easy to style and denim jackets are a perfect layering piece for the cool early Spring weather. This dress is super affordable and can be worn throughout the Spring and Summer. I can't wait for the days when I can wear outfits like this one...

Date Night

Hi everyone, happy Tuesday!! I'm feeling completely rejuvenated after a week on vaca. I have two more weeks left of doing absolutely nothing, it's complete bliss. On Saturday, I enjoyed a date night with my hubby. My typical date night attire usually consists of a great fitting tee and great fitting jeans (with heels, a statement necklace and lipstick, of course.) This time, I switched it up by wearing a chambray button up over a striped maxi dress. 

This dress was another item on the way out of my closet. I bought it four years ago and wore it probably twice. These days, the dress is too small in the chest area. But then a light bulb came on in my head and I realized I can wear it as a skirt, bingo!! 

Dress: Old Navy

Shirt: J Crew Factory

Shoes: Steve Madden

Bag: Michael Kors

Necklace: Tiffany & Co

Bracelet: Pandora

Crisp White

On Sunday, my hubby and I decided to take a moment and enjoy the beautiful weather by having a picnic. So, we went to the grocery store and then to one of our favorite deli's and packed a cooler! It was a beautiful day and the park turned out to be a great backdrop to take some outfit pics. I wore a crisp white dress and accessorized with a necklace and stacked bangles. I originally purchased this dress to use as a beach cover up, but I hate the beach and never go. This dress has been sitting in my closet for ages. I loved how this outfit came together and am excited about my new-but-actually-old dress. Isn't it exciting when you find items you forgot you had?

Floral Maxi

Hello All! Hope everyone had an amazing holiday weekend! I sure did; I enjoyed a lot of relaxing with my hubby, spent some quality time with my family and in-laws, attended a baby shower and squeezed in a little shopping too. Indeed, it was a fun filled weekend! I've been on vacation and patiently waiting to start my new job at a new school. So my apologies for being m.i.a.

I wore this floral maxi to attend a backyard bbq/baby shower on Saturday. The weather was painfully hot so this easy, breezy dress was perfect. I bought this dress about two years ago (maybe longer) on sale from Banana Republic and  i'm still in love with it. I kept my accessories simple: stacked silver bangles, silver hoop earrings and flats. Maxi's are a perfect solution for casual parties and so easy to style.

Dress: Banana Republic 

Shoes: Fendi 

Earrings: Charter Club via Macy's 

Bracelets: Banana Republic 

I also attended a wedding the previous weekend and wore a floral maxi dress. This dress was a bit more dressy and very appropriate for a summer wedding. I again kept the look simple and accessorized with gold chandelier earrings, gold stacked bangles, and peep toe heels. Unfortunately, I did not get any full length shots but wanted to share a quick photo of my look.

Thanks for reading and enjoy your week!
