Spring Must-Haves 2017

Spring Must-Haves 2017 by ubetterwork featuring a striped dress

Hello Fashionistas! It's almost Fri-yay! 

Today I'm featuring the trends that I feel will be popular this upcoming Spring based on what showed on the run-ways. 

There will be Florals. No surprise there. 

Bustiers will be making a come-back and I will be re-styling this little number. 

Stripes and Culottes. Khakis and Trench Coats. Single Shoulder Cut-Outs and Wordy Tees. Wedges and High Heels. Simple but elegant Loafers. The Ruffles were a pleasant surprise, but I must admit I'm excited to post an upcoming look.

How will you be fashionating this upcoming Spring?

Altuzarra: All about the Boots!

Hello Fashionistas! Humpday is here. How is your week going? 

This is my first post since the weekend so bear with me while I ask the question, how was your weekend? My weekend was not fashionating, but it was great. I saw an amazing movie on Sunday, Before I Go To Sleep, starring Nicole Kidman and Colin Firth. This movie made my weekend. It had barely any publicity or hoopla surrounding it; the hubster and I actually stumbled upon it accidentally. We pretty much had the entire movie theater to ourselves, it was so empty. However, this is one of the best movies I've seen all year. Filled with the right dose of suspense, mystery and intrigue. I loved it! I don't want to give anything away, but basically Nicole's character is an amnesiac trying to piece together the past 10 years (give or take) of her life. If you have seen this movie, let me know what you think. 

 The OOTD is the casual look that I chose to put together from this post. I again got thrown off by the weather and was going to do the pictures yesterday but it was a bit warm. It was even warmer today, hence the single pic in the down jacket (I couldn't take it). Since the look I created included the jacket, I wanted to add it in at least one of the pics. What do you guys think?

(Above) I look like the Leaning Tower of Pisa, lol. 

Down Jacket: Krush
Dress: Mossimo
Boots: Altuzarra x Target
Bag: Aldo
Bracelet: Gifted (last seen here)

P.S. Today is my step-father's birthday…Happy Birthday Pops! "All the things you've been and all the things you are give the word "father" a very special meaning and that's why there's so much love in this birthday wish for you".

Superbowl Attire

Superbowl Attire by ubetterwork featuring dorothy perkins

Today is Superbowl Sunday. How exciting for you football fans! =) Especially if one of the above teams is one that you are a die-hard fan of. Whether you are rooting for the 49ers or the Ravens, can we agree that both teams have great color choices to work with? metallic gold is in almost all women's closets, if not a clothing item, definitely a piece of jewelry. Black of course is a gift from the fashion god, very slimming, chic and always a staple. Are we looking forward to the half-time show (Go Beyonce!) and the commercials? Let me know what your thoughts are, only if it relates to fashion. Just kidding! :)

Have a Fa-ball-ous Superbowl Sunday!

Oxfords

Hello Fashionistas! 

Today I'm featuring the very popular on trend oxfords. I know a lot of you are going to disagree with me on this post, but I'm always going to give you my honest opinion here, I don't like flat oxfords. There, I said it.


I don't like the lows....

Classic black & white oxford (anyone feeling nostalgic?)

                                                                                 

 Lots of celebrities are photographed around town wearing oxfords:

(left to right) Keri Hilson, Jessica Alba (see my blog post on Fedoras to the rescue) And Olivia Palermo.

...But I definitely love the highs:

 Oxford (classic black & white) - Aldo

Isola Coralia high heel oxford $210 - Nordstrom

Two tone Oxford (good look for the Fall) - Anthropologie 

 Oxford - BCBgirls;

You can wear this in the Fall with tights, don't let a little open-toe scare you.

Alexandra oxford (perfect for Fall/Winter) $176 - Yoox 

Casadei oxford $780 - Endless

This shoe is ooh la la, love it.

Fendi square toe platform oxford $1120 - Barneys

 You can find oxfords in pretty much every department stores or online; the ones featured here today are ones that I feel are ultra fabulous. 

Thanks for stopping by!
