Coral Fest

Cardigan: George via Walmart ($11), Skirt: RICKI's ($15), Pumps: SteveMadden ($40), Watch: Fossil (gift)

You guys, can you believe it is already August, 2012 is half over! For some reason, years go by faster and faster the older I get. Speaking of which, my birthday is coming up real soon! This outfit reminds me of a coral fest - the fest that exists in my mind.

I had a total chilled long weekend! Didn't go anywhere, didn't do much other than catching some sales online (Oh yeah! - thats what I call an excellent weekend!!)

Have a good Hump Day!! :)

Peach Glow

Top: Smart Set ($10), Skirt: RICKI's ($15), Pumps: Steve Madden, Watch: Fossil (gift), Necklace: Wal mart($3)

If there is ever a day I want to feel sophisticated - i reach for a pencil skirt. I love the fit, brown color of this one alot, different choice than a typical black skirt. It also goes perfectly with a number of my tops. I decided to pair it with this peach glowing blouse -one of pastels shirts I bought this summer. I love this top, its billowy sleeves and the lace detail on the shoulder.

Hope you all are enjoying the summer!

High Waisted Pants (& Coral Lace)

Cardigan: Wal-Mart ($10), Pants: Suzy Sheir ($15), Flats: Ardene's ($10), Watch: Fossil (gift), bangles: F21 ($3)

I got my first pair of high waisted pants and I must say, they can be casual and could be dressed for work with some heels. More than anything, I just needed a bottom in this tan color :) and so for $25 on sale - I just had to have them.

Neon Coral and Navy Lace (& Habit Change)

Jeans: Thrifted ($7), Scarf: Garage ($5), Belt: Thrifted ($1), Shirt: Dynamite ($5)

As many of you might know by now that me and my husband got married a month ago. I have always envisioned us doing things together when we willl get married and start living together (as we have dated 7 years - I have ALOT of time dreaming about what things we would do together, where we would go for vacations, values we will create for our lifestyle etc.) and now I am in it - living the dream. :D

Have you heard of TED videos? It is just as addicting as Pinterest. Anywho, I watched a video there about HABIT CHANGE and they claim that it takes 30 days to change or create a new habit...

SO.

We both are young and have bad gums - we decided to create a new habit. We decided to brush 2 times a day and floss and gargle with mouthwash afterwards EVERY.DAY. (no excuses). I know I know.....isnt that a normal thing to do? Kudos to you if you do it. Well I confess that I always wanted to make this a priority but never did it.. But now we DO.IT.TOGETHER. it makes it easy and harder to just brush it off!

We have done it for 10 days already and SEEMS easier and easier everyday.

Is that any habit you have been wanting to change? Would you do it for 30 days?

Cognac and Navy Lace

Lace Top - H&M ($15), Belt: $3 (thrifted), Skirt H&M): $5

Navy blue and cognac is a wonderful combination together that I found about recently...yeah you can blame it to Pinterest. I do not have much lace in my closet but this top I picked up few months ago, knew could be versatile enough for work looks and also casual on the weekend. It is a litttle cropped for my liking but I supposse that's alright as I always wear a tank underneath everything or I can just tuck it in.

I am done with my christmas shopping and just got wrapping left (HURRAY! bec I totally started last minute). I did not do individual gifts this year, just did FAMILY gifts, I know not as exciting, but wanted to get something family-oriented that everyone could enjoy together, because that is the REAL meaning of christmas for me!

2 more sleeps till holidays begin! I hope you take some time off to spend with your loved ones - family and friends! Happy holidays to all my new and old readers!~you guys are truely the best!
