Golden Girl

My husband's company hosted their annual Christmas party this Friday at the Royal Sonesta. Being the last-minute shopper that I am, I waited until Thursday to purchase my outfit. Considering that his co-workers are much older than the two of us, I had to be sure to choose something sophisticated, but still keep it fun. I came across a white tuxedo blazer with a black lapel and fell in love. To add a bit of a wow factor, I paired it with a gold, sequins peplum top. I think sequins are perfect for the holiday's (that gives me an idea for a future post). Anywho, check out my look!

Haute Look Remix

As I mentioned in a previous post, I'm not the type to rock an item once then push it to the back of my closet. If you're a stylish fashionista on a budget, try remixing a look. This way you can show a little creativity and get the most out of an outfit. I purchased this dress in May to wear to my Grad school graduation (yay me!). I recently attended the Fall launch and 2nd Anniversary party for Amelie G. Mag and decided to wear it again, but with a touch of edge. Initially, I kept it bright and upbeat considering the season. This time around, I toughened up the look with a cropped, waterfall blazer, black booties with zipper details, a belt at the waist, fun accessories, and a bold lip color.
