Hi everyone, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I’m excited to announce that Part II of my New Orleans Girl About Town feature is now live on the Glitter Guide. Check it out at www.theglitterguide.com to get the scoop on my favorite local restaurants and my ideal Saturday night in New Orleans. In case you missed the first feature, you can check it out here–> Part I of My Stay at The Le Meridien New Orleans

 I wore this chic trench coat with dark grey jeans and a pair of ankle boots to check-in to the hotel. My favorite part of the trench coat is the color. I’m really into all shades of pink right now especially blush or pastel pink. Also, there is no better time to wear pink than around Valentine’s Day! It’s a nice light weight so you can wear it well into the spring.  I can’t wait to wear it with all white!

Good Morning readers and Happy Weekend! Today, I styled this Camilyn Beth dress as a holiday party outfit idea for everyone heading to fancy parties this weekend and through Christmas Eve. This ruffled Go Go dress is also a great look for New Year’s Eve too! I’m wearing the fuchsia color here, but I absolutely love the dress in peony pink and ivory too!

 I know this is super random, but I’m watching Austin Powers right now as I write this post, which is so funny since I’m featuring a Go Go style dress! I’ve always wanted to rock a groovy Go Go dress from the 70s! I know that they used to where them a little shorter back then so I’d say that is a more modest and classy version of the Go Go dress. However, I did recently get my dress hemmed a little since I am so petite (only 5 ft!) These photos are from before I got the dress hemmed. Stay tuned to see how it looks a couple inches shorter on me after the New Year! I already have another post planned for this groovy dress! Yea Baby! <–(was that lame? lol)

P.S. As for all of you brides-to-be, you would look simply smashing in the ivory Go Go dress for a wedding shower or the rehearsal dinner! I’m not even engaged “yet” and I’m already planning on wearing the ivory Go Go dress for at least one of my “future” wedding events! (My boyfriend is going to kill me if reads this! lol)

Happy Holidays! Make sure to check back tomorrow for a complete round up of Holiday Party and Christmas Eve outfits!

Hi everyone! Today, Krystal from A Pinch of Lovely and I wanted to prove to you that tulle skirts work for both petite and tall women! I am 5 ft tall and Krystal is 5’9! My skirt is 22′ inches long and Krystal’s skirt is 25 inches long. However, petite women can still get away with wearing both lengths! Check out the photo below to see my 25 inch tulle skirt or see the full post here–> Make A Statement at Holiday Parties! 

These outfits are perfect for her holiday parties, Christmas Eve and even New Year’s Eve!  Krystal and I styled our tulle skirts with neutrals and metallics for a classic and elegant look with hint of sass!

In case you’re wondering where else you can wear your tulle skirt other than just the Christmas holidays, you can style it casually with a graphic tee like Carrie Bradshaw or you can save it for other special occasions like birthdays, Valentine’s Day, bridal showers and even fancy spring soirees!  I also love seeing tulle styled in engagement shoots! They make killer photos! We took these photos  from the observation tower at the Omni Royal Orleans Hotel in the French Quarter during our “style-cation” in New Orleans.  The view from the rooftop is absolutely beautiful! It overlooks the entire city and you even have a clear view of the St. Louis Cathedral!

Stay tuned to see how I wore my platinum tulle skirt in my magical field!
