Happy FriYAY!

Another week for the books! Can't believe July is coming to an end! I feel that the older you get the faster time goes, how many of you remember time going soooooo slow when you were a kid? Well, the older you get the more you realize you really have to enjoy the season you are in to its fullest. 

Guys! I am so obsessed with this little dress on Giuliana. Its actually unisex. It could serve a plaid button down for a boy or a little dress for a girl, i just cuffed the sleeves and tied the bottom to give it a little girly look. Mini Mannikin is just one of my favorites. They do it time and time again. Just brilliant. My style is effortless, and I want g's style to be the same. I don't really like her to look like she has a costume on every time she gets dress, lol. I love her to look girly but not like she's trying too hard to be trendy. She's a kid, you have to allow them to look like her age but still fashionable. 

Truth be told, you will find me in flats and sneakers throughout the week. I LOVE heels, but living in this fast paced world with a toddler as a stay at home mom, I opt for a more laid back easy & comfy look. I truly like this tunic I picked up at Forever21 recently, so easy to wear over anything, like: shorts, jeans, nice pants, etc. I could of chosen chunky lace up sandals but instead I went for a slip on sneaker. (I've also worn it with Birkenstock! looks awesome!) mix up your colors, try to contrast a monotone look by adding a pop of color, even if that color is white, it breaks off from the dark hues.

How to add style to your wardrobe

Happy Friday Eveeeeee

The weekend is almost here and we couldn't be happier! Life is crazy these days running after a toddler. I wish I had taken all those naps I denied to take before having Giuliana! zzzzzzz!

I come across a lot of moms that say, "oh I could never pull that look off!", or "that only looks good on you.", or a very common one is "I could never wear that.", and I honestly wish that you would buy it and just TRY IT!

Knee high sandals are such a trendy item to wear this season. From designer ones to budget friendly, we have them all! For me, they make wearing shorts A LOT easier. They hide my white legs. So, I’ve gathered a couple of tips to help you try new trends:

1. First step is to educate yourself with what’s on trend (read blogs, go on pinterest, buy magazines).
2. Buy items that you would love to wear but never have before.
3. Try these items at home with simple pieces, try to focus on showing off one item at a time.
4. Take pics and send them to your girlfriends, ask for the opinions of those you trust.
5. If you have never tried edgy & new trends (like knee high sandals), don’t' pair them with wild patterns like palm trees, which are totally in. Stick to more subtle and simple pieces (white, black, denim, grays - neutrals!)
6. Once you feel comfortable with one trend, go ahead and mix it with another one (like seen here, I tried it with my long vest).
7. Then repeat these steps all over again!

Obsessed with G's new shoes. Mini Melissa's have been a favorite since before she was born! She had the popular black cat face ones for a year and half, but now I was able to get these new models which are slip on, easy to wear, comfy, and she's totally in love with them too! #thebest
