Sunday Look: Holiday Red “Animal Print Trimmed in Red”

Blogs, , , , , ,

Hello friends! By now, most of us are in full holiday mode. Planning family gatherings, parties, menus and gift giving. I just love this time of year!

For me, wardrobe planning is a great part of my holiday planning. Like I mentioned last week, I like to wear RED on Sunday’s in December. It’s sort of my homage to Christmas.

Today’s outfit is a twist, yet it included RED. I loved the idea of wearing animal print. It’s just another way to add that element of surprise to any holiday outfit. I’ve always talked about pulling out one color in your outfit to accessorize. The sash was trimmed in RED which gave me the style opportunity.

In keeping with my theme, I accessorized in RED. Teardrop earrings, a beaded necklace and the perfect shade of RED heels topped with a bow. How perfect is that?

My BAG today, a small RED vinyl wristlet. Simply stated.

Don’t be afraid to add another element of style to any outfit.

Sunday Look: Holiday Red “The Beginning in Houndstooth”

Blogs, , , , , , ,

Hello guys, welcome to December! Can you believe this year is almost over? I just wanted to jump on here and welcome you to December. I also hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving Holiday. I must admit the four day weekend was nice! I cooked and hosted for fifteen. Yay me! 🙂

As we approach my favorite time of the year, I can’t help but be excited. I’m so ready for all the glitz and glamour that the holiday brings. Not forgetting the real reason for the season.

If you’ve followed me in the past, you know that I love wearing RED the entire month of December. I’m not sure I can pull it off again this year, but I’m sure going to try.

I’ve started this Holiday season with a red and black houndstooth Poncho. The cape and poncho are back, and they’re more sleek and sophisticated than ever. Especially this one with a faux fur collar. It added another level of sophistication. I simply draped this one over a sleeveless sheath dress. I loved the look. It was almost a one and done.

Accessorizing was never easier. I wore red drop earrings and added a gold broach to the fur collar, that’s it! I wore black knee-high boots for the finish.

My BAG today was a dressy black leather medium tote with a Chanel chain.

Let the RED Glam begin…

Sunday Look: Snake Print Top

Blogs, , , ,

Happy Sunday! I’m back! My computer died on me about a month ago and I haven’t been able to share outfit details with you. Today I’m sitting here in front of my new computer.

I have some very exciting news to share. I’ve been selected to be a rewardStyle influencer. You will be able to follow me, styleyourbestbeauti via the LIKEtoKNOW.IT app. This is a very big deal and I’m so excited! I feel like I have arrived as a blogger and fashion influencer. If I put in the work, this could be life changing. Did I say I was excited? 🙂 🙂

Now that I’ve gotten that bit of news out of the way, let’s talk about the current fashion trend I’m obsessed with. Reptile print or snake print. My last Blog Post featured a soft snake skin dress. I’ve purchased a pair of snakeskin boots (that I’ve yet to wear). I’m obsessed with them too. I’m pretty much obsessed with anything and everything in that print.

Todays top featured a snake skin print with a smocked mock neck and tie front. The top is semi sheer and requires a cami if you are light skinned. With my darker skin, I was able to wear a black bra, I didn’t need a cami at all. In addition to the print the tie at the hemline did it for me.

I paired the top with a simple pair of gauchos. I kept the jewelry to a minimum. The neck was so pretty I didn’t want to distract from it. The same went for the sleeves, no bracelets needed. I played the look up with large faux diamond hoop earrings. I love how my Manolo dupes finished off the look.

My BAG today was a clear tote with black handle and black insert. Another fashion trend!

Sunday Look: Soft Snakeskin Print

Blogs, , , , ,

Hello guys, Happy Sunday. How do you go about building your wardrobe? Are you a trend follower or do you just go with what you like? I’m a little bit of both. If I like a current trend, I search for it and go for it! I also build my wardrobe around what I like. You know my favorite saying “If you like it, wear it”

If you are up-to-date on your fashion trends, you know that snakeskin print is trending big time. Many of you know, I’ve always been a fan of animal print, but this snakeskin print has me excited! I’ve seen this print in dresses, cardigans, shirts, shoes, handbags, etc. And I’m here for it all!

I picked up this snakeskin pattern contemporary dress with a tie waist and pleated skirt a couple of months ago. I think I was attracted to the softness of the two-tone print. It screams dressy.

This dress was really easy to accessorize. The softness automatically called for some sort of pearl. I didn’t want to go with all pearl accessories, I mixed it up. I chose a metal three-tier ball earring in gold, silver and rose gold. I added a rose colored pearl necklace and bangle. Believe it or not, I had to work for the shoe. I tried a few before I settled on a pointy, closed toe high heel that paired perfectly with one of the colors in the dress.

My BAG; a suede triangle patch work clutch in four different colors. It was a nice contrast to the print of my dress and shoes.

Leave me a comment about how you feel about snakeskin print.

Sunday Look: Fully Vested

Blogs, , , , , ,

Hello and Happy Sunday. Can you say “ooh la, la” for the cooler weather? You know (cooler weather) it’s my jam! 😉 . Sometimes I imagine what it would be like to live in a cooler climate. A friend recently move back home to Montana. She has been teasing me with her cooler temps, sitting fireside and snow. Yes snow, as early as September mind you. Imagine the wardrobe!

Back to reality Carolyn 😉 😉 . Today’s outfit was worn with a Central Texas Fall in mind. A navy blue two piece long vest and wide legged pant. The vest flows freely with every step. The semi-ruffled front and side splits adds major detail. I paired it with a simple off-white top. A top in the orange and yellow family would look great as well. This vest can become a Fall wardrobe staple, simply by adding a turtle neck, skinny jeans and boots! If I decide to go for this look I will be sure to snap a pic.

I chose pearl accessories. Gold hoop earrings with a single pearl bead, along with a single strand pearl necklace. Metallic blue pointy toe pumps added the wow! I LOVE these shoes…

My BAG today was a multi colored clutch of blue, black, white and red floral print.
