Classic Red Sweater, Old Navy Skinny Jeans, Crown Vintage Bootie, Flannel Blanket Scarf, Necklace with Charms and Tassel

The holiday season is upon us! One of my favorite times of the year and needless to say I love dressing up for the season. From holiday parties to family pictures for greeting cards, everyone brings out their best outfits. One of my go-to for the season is a classic holiday red sweater.

I’ve had different versions in the past few years with different styles but one thing that remains is the bold, bright color. It’s striking and perfect for the holiday season. I’ve paired this red sweater with a pair of skinny jeans and a plaid blanket scarf. Easy, simple and chic for late fall Thanksgiving and holiday season.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving friends!

It’s been a while since we had one of our Fashion Fridays. I know it is late in the season but I didn’t get around to sharing with you any of my favorite fall pieces this year. Before the season ends and the snow gets here, let’s talk about the one (or two) must-haves in the fall –  cozy fall sweaters. They are versatile, warm (duh!) and fun to mix-and-match with different statement pieces. For my wardrobe, I love bold colors and patterns but every now and then I go for a more classic piece like this green open-front sweater.

Nothing beats the crisp fall air with a cozy sweater, favorite scarf and boots. For most of you, there’s another 6 weeks of fall left. So be sure to shop for some new cozy fall sweaters. For those of us in the northeast, winter is just around the corner. Layer up!

I was hunting for a utility jacket for spring and figured I should share with you some of my favorites I came across. I know most of you are almost done with spring but for those of us in the Northeast USA, we are just getting started. We finally traded our heavy winter coats for lighter, functional spring jackets and rain boots.

Utility Jackets are military-style lightweight jackets perfect for spring and summer nights. It’s currently a trend that caught my eye last fall but I never got around to shopping for one.

Hi friends! It’s been WAY too long since we had an edition of Fashion Fridays. The last we spoke I was very pregnant and wearing a whole different wardrobe. But I think it’s time for some bright, bold Spring pieces like this pink plaid shirt.

The thing about having a baby is that you grow immensely in more ways than you knew possible, especially in your relationship with your body. You journey through very many emotions from hating that you are getting big, to accepting it, to realizing wow, I am growing a human so I should be getting big, to amazement in what your body can do and finally to loving your body for all it’s wonders. Well, at least that was my journey and I am sure it is different for every woman who goes through childbirth but I do hope that we all come out of it embracing the amazing transformation we went through and loving the new curves, lines and bodies that nourish our babies, regardless of the size.

This spring, I am looking forward to wearing more bold colors and patterns!! I am a sucker for plaid, blocks and prints and this top from Stitch Fix, lit up my day when I received it. It was perfect for our little weekend getaway to Orlando a few weeks ago. I love how it moves with you, how bright it is and spring perfect!

What are some of your staple Spring wardrobe pieces? I love flats, colored skinny jeans and patterned tops.

PS: This was my second time trying Stitch Fix and I love it. Have you tried it before?? Having a personal stylist who knows your taste is amazing and perfect for this busy new mom who has zero time to go shopping. Here’s a (referral) link to sign up for their service. Give them a try and let me know what you think.

Here are some tips to bring out your own power lady.

• Try a structured jacket. Jackets are a great way to create clean and soft lines in your wardrobe. They are not only for work.

• Another great way to be a boss lady is to wear a smart skirt. Every woman looks good in a pencil skirt. And you can play around with the colors, textures, and lengths (remember be BOLD).

• And finally for my absolute favorite: Class up your feet!! A classic black heel, neutral round toe, and one just for fun are always great options to have in your wardrobe
