I rarely wear my hair up only because I am too lazy to do anything so a ponytail is a stretch for me. I usually just curl quickly the ends and I'm out the door. I think I have only worn my hair in one other post before this one.Are you guys getting sick of my smiling at the camera? LOL I wish I had that ability to have a no smile/sexy pose but NOPE- don't have it in me:)
I am totally trying to pose my LV Alma handbag! It's still in brand new condition because I baby it every time I use it.

Most blouse's are not able to be tucked in without it being bunchy or leaving extra material in the back and sides. This one tucks in beautifully! I cannot stand when I try to tuck in a shirt and it's all bulky and looks weird.This blouse fits perfectly! See where it's tucked in? No baggy material unlike other blouses...love it!
Here I am trying to tighten my ponytail...not exactly sure why I am including this picture but oh well- at least I am not posing like I normally do..hahahah!
I think this skirt is a tad too long for my short legs- your thoughts? I'm thinking I may take it up about 1.5-2" right above the knee which is where my ideal skirt length is.
Warning about this shirt- it looks like a grandma's shirt at first glance on the hanger. 8 months ago, I would have never even thought to buy or wear this type of top but once I put it on, and tucked it in- LOVED it!
The sort of puffy 3/4 sleeve is soooooo adorable and totally ME!
I love the fact that this blouse buttons all the way down so you don't have to get make-up on the collar every time you put it over your head- I hate when that happens- especially if it's the last size in that style and someone tried it on before you- UGH!
The waist and hips fit really nicely on this skirt- I highly recommend it to any petites my size! And it has front pockets too! And love the faux leather belt...hope it doesn't break too soon!
Here is a close-up of the top so you can see the detailing. It's sheer so I had to wear a nude bra and a nude cami underneath.
This is also a new H & M pencil skirt I just got. It's actually a pinstripe skirt but you can't tell from the pictures. Ironically, this skirt fits way better than all my other H & M pencil skirts and boy do I have a lot of them!
Can you see the tiny faux patent leather belt? Super cute and I like that there are belt loops so your belt stays in one place.
Here are my new Aldo black pumps (still available and on sale here) I got on sale during my Aldo pump binge. Still waiting for my gray ones and a newer one of the brown pumps that were slightly used (floor model).
Even though this is the same top, with a different color skirt and nylons, totally changes the look huh?
I like both looks, what do you think? I think this may be my new fav blouse....it goes with everything! I can even throw a cardigan or blazer over it for a different look too! It's a brand new top (front of store) so go and find it!

If anyone needs the tag for any of these, please let me know! FYI- this blouse was a bit spench- $34.95 but I think worth it! Let me know your thoughts on which outfit you prefer or if you like both :)
Anyone interested in another Holiday giveaway to win a LOFT scarf, necklace and earrings? I will be having one this Friday so stay tuned!
