Tall knee-high boots with knee-high socks - Style #3

Hello my dear beauties,

This is another look featuring tall knee-high boots and knee-high socks. This style reminds me a little bit of Liv Taylor in 1995 movie Empire Records. Most of you have probably not heard of it because you were still playing with your Barbies at that time :)

I love this sweater from Free People but I wonder about the quality of the cotton. It has stretched significantly after one wear and I am noticing little tears. I have also learned that the best way to treat your sweater is to hand wash it with gentle detergent without twisting it and laying it flat to dry. Most of you know that already but not myself as I have been dry cleaning my sweaters and it is not the best solution.

I hope you had the chance to enter my GIVEAWAY. If not, you can find more information at the end of the post. Good Luck and till then, style it up!

Grey leopard print - Style #1

Hello my lovely ladies. I wish you an amazing week ahead of you!

I love the material, design and detail of this little shirt from Express. What I have been doing more  is layering pieces made of silk and thinner materials. This way I can wear articles from the summer into the winter season.  In this case I am wearing black silk dress shirt from BEBE underneath the leopard print top. I prefer to keep it single or in other words - one animal print per outfit. I have also paired the top with a skirt in the same color family of grays and blues. Although the skirt is not a solid print, the print is so small that the human eyes accepts it as a solid.

Nothing new here. As the quote says it best: "Fashion is more usually a gentle progression of revisited ideas!"

Christmas at the Webers

The happiest moments in life for me are undeniably spent with the family. Fortunately, I have two wonderful families - my Bulgarian family and my American family. Every year, I spent either Thanksgiving or Christmas with my American family in Arizona. Here are some of our annual traditions:

1) Mexican food. Mexican food in Georgia is just not as good as in Arizona. I have never had Mexican food in Europe. I wonder how it is.

Image from ifood.tv but mine looked pretty much the same

2) Bowling. The Webers in Arizona are pretty much professionals. I was able to hold my ground for one game - the remaining three games were total embarrassment. And I thought I looked kind of cool bowling but the picture below proves me wrong!

 3) We watched Sherlock Holmes second year in a row. I have to say Robert Downey Jr. is in his element and I loved the second movie as well. Hopefully, part III is out by year end 2012 :)

 4) In-N-Out Burger. Although not a tradition yet, I think this burger joint should be on our annual holiday agenda!

And here is my Christmas Day outfit:

Seven Year Itch

This past weekend was our 7th wedding anniversary. I just found out that the traditional gift for 7th year anniversary is made of copper. I told Chris that he should pass on this one and save for our diamond anniversary - haha :) We decided to keep things casual and low key as you can see from my outfit. I have been wanting to try color tights for a while and purple seemed to be a safe start. We had a great time at a seafood restaurant and jazz bar after that. I feel the luckiest wife ever!!!

Beautiful Liar

This is an outfit I wore a couple of weeks ago with the girls on the town. We went to dance the night away at a local club called Tongue and Groove and we had a blast. They were playing hit after hit and we did not sit down for at least two hours. I don't know about you, but I play loud dance music at home all the time and somehow while I do that I have a vivid image and feeling that I can dance like Beyonce or Shakira in Beautiful Liar. Unfortunately, I have been told that this is not the case. But a girl can dream, right?

Mix and Match

Decided to do something different with my outfit photos - a little collage of angles and views. I hope you like it. I am glad the color "red" is in vogue this season because I could pull an old red evening dress out (see here) and dress it down to a day outfit! The top is made of jersey material and looks great both buttoned up or more relaxed by the end of the day. Can't wait to pair it with a nice pair of fall shorts!
Has fall arrived at your doorsteps? Or are you still in a summer climate?

Wish List: Red Hot

I am so excited about the red suit trend I have been noticing on editorials and other bloggers. It looks both classy and sexy.  The only affordable suit I have found so far is from Express (last image) but if you have any other sources please send them my way.

Mambo Jambo

"MAMBO. A little bit of this.  JAMBO.  A whole lotta that." A little bit of live latin music, mohitos,  and summer Cuban ambiance. A whole lotta of delisions food, loving and pictures. When? Last Saturday. With whom? My better half. Where? Mambo Jambo - A Nuevo Latino Seafood Cafe. 

This dress from Express has a smocked waist (under the belt) and is my new favorite.
