It is with pleasure that I join and collaborate with Ada (from Elegance and Mommyhood) for her Sunday Showcase link up.(Link up will be live around 8 PM each Sunday) . We will co-hosting a new link up every 1st Sunday of the month! Don’t forget to visit Ada and see more about her 4th of July looks! Today’s theme is a propos for the 4th of July but these outfits would be great for Memorial Day and any other patriotic holiday. While I sometimes wear a tee with a flag, I usually try to use patriotic color in a stylish and not too obvious way. Today I am sharing…

Today I am sharing my favorite outfits of the day for the month of June. I always like to revisit my Instagram posts in a blog post because it helps me figure out which works and doesn’t work. I think this was my favorite look for the month of June: I love the feminity of the white peasant blouse paired with the denim and the accessories just make the outfit complete. It also make me happy to see how I wear certain things over and over again over the years such as the sandals and the blouse. I have been all about flowy clothes this summer whether they are flowy…

While there might be fewer wedding invitations this summer as some have posponed their wedding or made it a smaller affair, it is always fun to consider what to wear to a celebratory event such as a wedding. As most of my friends are in the same stage of life as I am, married with kids, there has been fewer wedding invitations in the past 10 years. However, having younger cousins, we have gone or been invited to a few summer weddings. Sadly we missed the last two by being out of the country on vacation. Today, I am pleased to have been invited to join co-host the Thursday Moda…

When I was looking for a a white tee with details to replace my dingy one, I came accross these yellow floral pants at Ross. At $8.99 I couldn’t pass them up and took them to try on. My closet has become quite colorful this year and I am loving it. Dressing in the morning makes me happy and brigthens my outlook on the day combined with a to do list (having a sense of purpose and accomplisment helps me feel like I haven’t wished the day away). Of course, before deciding to keep them I had to think of several ways I could wear them. Today I am sharing…

I am pleased to co-host Thursday Moda with Ada from Elegance and Mommyhood one more time. Thanks, Ada! You can see our posts featuring cobalt blue last week here and here. I have been revamping my wardrobe in 2020 donating things that did not fit well, that did not bring joy (I don’t want to force myself to wear something) or that were worn out. My summer and spring wardrobe are really in no need of anything so I am going to take a day at a time, a week at a time and see if I can stick to a goal I made in this area till the end…

A couple of weeks ago, Lisa from Coast to Coast featured a cute travel look that showed me one more way I could wear my jumpsuit. I haven’t worn my jumpsuit much as I do not feel like it is the most flattering piece of clothing in my closet but I cannot deny how comfortable it is. Lisa’s look was easy to replicate as I have a light colored denim jacket in my closet as well as leopard wedges. Whenever I find a look I can copy by shopping my closet, I get excited: I have been bitten by the shopping bug these past few months, and I am kind…

First of all, I want to thank Ada for asking me to co-host Thursday Moda with her. Ada is mom to cute little Vivian and I have enjoyed reading her blog and following her on Instagram for a couple of years now. I think some of my favorite of her posts are her mommy and me outfits: since I have 4 boys, I do not really match very often with my boys (sometimes we do with camo or certain color themes) and I love all of the cute little outfits they put together. Vivian is a little fashionista herself and Ada often shares her school outfits. Ada is also passionate…

Growing up, I was wore skirts every day. I do not think it bothered me much until I was in middle school. I looked different than the other kids at school especially when I went to high school and as a teen, I wanted to fit in. High school was a private school both in France and Mexico City so the children wore brand name and wore the latest fashion. I still had my group of friends but I really wanted to fit in more with the general population. As I became independent and lived on my own, I started wearing a variety of clothes including pants, shorts and still…

What to do when you need inspiration for a blog post? Turn to your fellow bloggers and take inspiration from them. When I came accross this look of Jess, my first thought was: oh, I can totally copy this outfit! Jess always looks stylish whether she is wearing one of her many skirts or dresses or whether she is rocking a jean and graphic tee look. I really love it when I can replicate someone’s outfit by shopping my closet and not succumbing to the shopping bug. I had grandiose ideas of really reducing my clothes shopping this year and while I do not regret any of my purchases (I…

What constitutes a favorite look? Something new and unexpected shopped mostly from my closet, something I felt good in and looked good in pictures too (one doesn’t always translates into the other, lol). Color for some days and neutrals for others, variety I think for me is the key. I like to come up with new outfits either by looking at my closet or by finding inspiration from another blogger. Today, I am taking a look back at my favorite outfits from the last two months. I featured these white beach pants in the last couple of posts and this shows you again how versatile they are. I really prefer…
