12/01 OOTD - It's all About Layering

　

Happy December, everyone. The countdown has started for the New Year, I am more excited this year because its my Birthday month and Wedding Anniversary as well. I turn the big 30, wooohooo but enough of me and my ventures lets talk about my 1st day of December outfit.

It's cold again, so I pulled one of my favorite pieces during winter my Theory chunky sweater in eggplant. I purchased this when I worked at the store, and I fell in love with it. Of course I didn't pay the full retail price, I used my discount .You might know by now I am a bargain hunter , so paying full price for something it's not normal for me. But I had to invest in this , and it was well worth it. I paired it with a Stretchy long fitted dress , and some Andrea B tights with a zipper back giving it a bit of a rockish look. For shoes , I purchased these black BCBG pumps at ROSS (My opinion you cant have to many black shoes..lol) and besides being comfy and cute the price was what sold me. For accessories I am wearing one of my favorite purse designers Dooney & Bourke , I just love the neutral color on this bag and it can be worn with anything. I finished it off with my H&M leopard scarf , seen before. Taking the cream colors from the purse and the scarf to completing a cold day office look.

It's all about layering in winter, so try pairing a pair of tights with a skirt or a big chunky sweater with some leggings and Knee high socks. Well till next time,

11/30 OOTD - Comfy Sweater Dress

Brrrr!! Its cold in Central Florida today, its about time. So I am taking every opportunity I can, to wear something new that I recently purchased at a  vintage aka Goodwill  store...lol. Yes, I shop at Goodwill nothing wrong with that. But I have a few rules, that I go by. I will do a post soon on how to shop at thrift store and find great things.

But any who, here is my outfit. Its a peach sweater XL for $5.00, because I wanted to wear it like a dress. So I paired it with my brownish black knee high boots from Aldos, and black tights. I found also this great scarf at Rue21 last night for $2.00, and my necklace is from Target Clearance $3.00. I love bargain shopping, nothing gives me a rush when I find sales. Well, let me correct my self I get a big rush when I'm at  church. But, shopping is next in line. jaja

Being Fashionable doesnt mean you have to break the bank, its smart shopping. So next time you see a Vintage shop, stop in and see what things you can find. Have a wonderful day. xo Yarimar

Happy Thanksgiving

Hi there,
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, I had 2 one in Deltona and one in Kissimmee. Being that I have such a big family and everyone having husbands or wives it's super hard to be all together with out eating and running. 

This year we did it different, so we can spend more time as a family since we love being together.

This was my outfit for Friday. Look: Rue 21 Zebra dress, with Maker Shoes in blue, some gold and blue accessories.   I wanted to be comfy, so I was. 


Well I hope you had a great Thanksgiving with your fam. Till next time.
