What I Wore: Holiday Glitz

It’s the perfect time of year to throw on some shiny goodness without apologies. This, of course, means I take it a few steps further by not only wearing glitz, but pairing it with loud prints. In other words, sorry, I’m not sorry.

Outfit Inspiration: Geeky Thanksgiving

Dress; Persunmall // Wedges; GoJane {similar} // Clutch; Primark // Necklace; The Limited

Now there is no more denying it – we are officially in holiday season! Thanksgiving is only a week away, and amidst getting those turkeys, cocktails and pies ready is the very real dilemma running through all your minds: WHAT DO I WEAR? OK, so maybe it’s not that real and not that much of a dilemma, but I know I like to eat on Thanksgiving. A lot. So that means I need to be really careful with my outfit choice. It’s got to flatter, yet conceal what is sure to be a 4 month food baby (at the very least).

For this reason, I figured I would help all you fellow geek girls with some outfit inspiration for this very tricky occasion. First, always pick a loose fitting top or dress. I personally love this tunic dress from Persunmall because not only is it comfortable, but it reminds me of my youth spent in front of a Galaga machine (I know you 80’s kids get me). Although I tend to gravitate towards dresses, a simple and chic tunic top over leggings would also work just fine! Pair it with some bright and fun accessories like these neon-colored wedges and Boston Terrier clutch (squee!) and you are ready to stuff your face in style.

ps; here are some great coupon codes for Persunmall to help ease your inevitable shopping binge: thanks10 (10% OFF $100+ Free shipping on all orders), thanks15 (15% OFF $150+ Free shipping on all orders) & thanks20 (20% OFF $200+ Free shipping on all orders).

I accept pie. 😉

What I Wore: Nerdy Chic

Yeah, I’m one of those people that wear glasses without any need. I remember staring at all the girls that had glasses growing up and being envious. One in particular stands out in my memory with red frames (a la Sally Jessy Raphael) that I was particularly jealous of. I guess I’ve just always been a fan of over accessorizing. 😉

In other news, I hope no one minds, but I’m just going to rock maxi skirts every day for the rest of the year. Cool?

What I Wore: Kids & Karting

The past weekend was my nephew’s birthday celebration where we went to an indoor karting venue and both the adults and kids were able to race. I landed myself in LAST place, but still had such a blast participating!!! I knew I had to be comfortable, but still look cute, so I threw on an adorable wrap blouse with a pair of flared jeans and voila! Casual chic achieved. Now if all decisions in life could be so easy.

Can you believe my amazing braided updo from Blo was still in tact the following day? I wish I could just have one of their stylists at my beck & call to make me always look fabulous.

Jumpsuits

I know not everyone is a fan, but I can’t get enough of jumpsuits. Sure, you have to physically take everything off when you need to use the restroom, but there is always a price to pay when looking fabulous, am I right? I personally would have a closet full of them, especially now that such fun designs are being seen in comparison to all the boring neutrals we used to find. Just remember: not all jumpsuits are created equal. Make sure to search for ones that flatter your body type by hugging you in all the right places. Some tend to just sag, which is one adjective you never want thrown around when describing you and/or your look!
