Post Christmas Casual-ness...

It's one 'em days. After Christmas...where all you want to do is lounge around and think about all those sweet deals going on, almost like Black Friday. But there is work today...boo...

I felt really casual today so mustered up this outfit together. My entire outfit including jewelry (excluding watch (was a gift!)) and shoes cost me less than $100! Woot, woot!

Do you gals have a go-to casual outfit you go by? Casual is so comfy!

I'll try my best to remember where each item came from...

white collar top - H&M

khaki jacket - Old Navy

pink coral jeans & belt - Forever 21

gold bangles & bracelets - Forever 21

flats - Wet Seal

watch - Juicy Couture

Ever feel...

Ever feel like the stars are not aligning right sometimes? Almost like something in your life is off balance, almost nothing is meshing together easily. Not that life is easy but not as easily as it seems for others.

Sometimes I have this thought and and questions of what I should be in the near future. I guess, yea, you can say I still don't know what I would like to be when I grow up (I'm in my late 20's now, YIKES!)

I stumbled across this website which tells you what you are in your previous and past lives, and what feelings/traits we need to or have released and what we should (suggested) embrace in our future.

And I feel...what it said about me was true!...

Check out your past and new life... please let me know if you feel it's accurate or not. I'm really curious...

Here's what it says about mine...

I should release these traits:

- Ungrounded wanderlust
- Fixating on the future
- Righteous zealotry

And embrace these traits:

- Community activism
- The power of Now
- Playful exploration

To me it's true! HAHA. You know the weird thing is... I was never big on astrology nor horoscopes but sometimes a little awakening from an outside source is a bit of an eye opener...

Peppy Peplum

My current fashion obsession this weekend? Peplum tops, not just regular peplum tops but peplum stripe tops! They're just too gorgeous to just get one.

Peplums are girly and has a vintage feel to them. Yet they're like skirts but not like them because they sit at your waist. I was hesitant at first  because I wasn't sure my waistline could handle it but you know what? After putting one on, I felt it helped out my waistline a bit. There's no harm in trying one at any store so I highly suggest it!

I picked up a few at Forever 21 this weekend but then saw some I adored online after. Ever feel like you had buyers' remorse even if it just a few dollars? I think we know how that feels.

I've chosen a few that I couldn't keep my eyes away from online. Had to show you gals...

It's here....

I mean the holidays! The holidays are so hectic I wonder how some families go about them. I'm in awe. With that being said, I am obsessed with coats and jackets right now. Can't get 'nuff of them. Is there one your particularly hung up on? For example, I'm hung up on capes right now. They're classy and chic. I'm in search for a colored one to match with some black boots. Yum!
