Blue Blazer + Grey flared pants







Happy Wednesday 😘 Just a quick post here today on another work wear outfit. I'm wearing a dark blue color blazer over a pair of grey wide leg pants. The grey pant is actually a part of a two piece pant suit ensemble but I ditched the grey blazer for this blue blazer to create a color block effect. Grey is such a cool color to wear in the winter season but I wasn't in the mood for a two piece monochrome look. The blue blazer is a thrifted piece and my pant is an old purchase from Nordstrom.

Valentine day is around the corner I know but it is not a holiday I celebrate so, I'm not doing any outfit inspiration for valentine. However, red and black  are colors that always work for valentine and if you need more inspiration; check out my style boards on Polyvore when you click the style board link on the right of this blog. You can also check out my style boards on my second Instagram feed; @beautyfashionzone. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Nude + Pink Pastels






Happy Tuesday ladies; another new day to achieve beautiful new memories. Like I said in my previous post, the weather has warmed up a bit so I figured it is time to break out the pastels. This white tie neck blouse tucked into a soft pink color denim pants was the way to go this morning and since the heavy coats are not really needed right now, the light nude color duster coat was an appropriate choice of outerwear. It's trench-like details and vintage look gives a sort of edginess to the feminine outfit. The  red color block heels was to add a pop of color. If you live in the warm region and want to recreate this look, you can swap a blazer for the long coat and you'll still achieve the same look. Enjoy your day ladies and thanks so much for stopping by 🙋

Plaid Skirt + long red coat







 
 
Happy Monday lovelies; I hope the week started off right for you. I'm sharing a quick post for "work wear Monday" today featuring classic/old pieces from my closet. Since red color is trending this month and it's still winter, I decided to wear this long red coat as a statement piece over a simple white blouse and plaid wrap skirt. Do you notice the high neckline on my white blouse? It is really a nice touch since it mimics a turtle neck and the cut out lace details is so girly and fun.
 
The weather has warmed up to the 30s and if you live in Minnesota, this is warm/summer weather for us in the middle of winter 😂 So, do not be surprised that I am not wearing stockings. If you are not used to the cold however, I'll definitely recommend that you add a pair of nylon stockings to this outfit if you want to recreate this look.
 
Did anyone watch the super bowls last night? Oh my God! that was such a fun game!! I'm not a die hard football fan and I have not sat down through an entire football game before but I'm so glad I watched the whole game yesterday and saw how a team that was way down (New England Patriots) ended up winning the game in overtime; definitely history making moment/game. The win really strengthened my faith that we should never lose hope in life no matter the situation we are in. I wish you a great and productive week.

Shoe Lovin' - Emerald Green Velvet Pumps






                                                                                    HERE




Emerald green velvet  pumps have been trending for a while now and since block heels are also trending;  the combination of both trends; "velvet and block heels," is just pure gorgeousness! This Jcrew pair pictured above sold out pretty quickly when it was released and now it has been restocked in limited sizes. Check out other selections below..

Casual Denim in the Snow

 
 
 




It's throwback Thursday 😁  Yes, the weekend is almost here. These photos are throwback pics too. I wore this outfit on a cold, windy day a few weeks ago and No, I did not step out of the house into the cold like this. I had on a long, comfy coat over this outfit and you can see the pictures in this blogpost HERE. So, let's just say these are leftover pics. I would be wearing different combinations of this same outfit many times over in the Spring; simple shirt, denim pants and comfortable shoes; speaking of which; I'm so excited that Spring is around the corner. Until the next post lovelies; kisses 😙

Sweater Dress + Camel color sleeveless coat








Happy first day of February Friends. So in my previous posts, I wore a snowy day outfit and today, it is all about a simple casual wear for a not-too-cold winter day. I have always loved sweater dresses and I purchased this burgundy color one from Victoriassecret years ago and this makes me wonder for the umpteenth time; "whatever happened to Victoriassecret's clothing and shoes line?" They used to have very fabulous clothing line for work and play and I really loved their sweater dresses and work wear. Their Colin Stuart shoe collection was also beautiful too but it's all gone and they've gone back to just selling lingerie and beauty products. I have not read or heard anything in the media about this and I'm curious to know more.


Now, back to this simple outfit; my sweater dress is really clingy and since I'm very curvy, I decided to throw on a sleeveless coat for extra cover. And to the big curvy girls like me; it's okay to be confident in whatever you wear but you always have to exercise some caution in your dressing so you can look decent and classy. In other words, if you are big behind, you definitely need to invest in good shapewear and have a good collection of light coats, cardigans, vests, dusters and kimonos whichever suits your fashion taste. Check out my Bible verse of the day below and thanks so much for reading.

1 Timothy 2:9-10 (KJV)
 
 
"In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godliness) with good works.

What to wear on a snowy day

 
 

 
 
 
Happy Tuesday Friends; just a quick post here. We have been having a lot of snowy weather in Minnesota lately and there is still so much of the beautiful stuff laying around. So, last Saturday, I decided to do a quick casual style shoot for the blog; hence the title; "what to wear on a snowy day." 
 
 
This outfit is for those snowy days when you need to run errands around town; maybe doing grocery shopping or going to the salon. I wore a pair of blue denim, a white tee and a vest and a pair of boots with great soles to avoid slipping and falling on the slippery, icy driveways. Flat shoes with slippery soles are a; "No-No" for me whenever there is lots of snow on the ground. And do not forget the "over the shoulder" bags. You have to have your hands free to tuck in your vest's pockets for extra warmth and to help you walk safely. Trust me, it's not safe to be holding stuff or carrying bags when you are trying to walk safely in the snow. Thanks a lot for reading friends and have a great week.
