LWD

Dress(old)- similar here Shoes(old)- similar here Bag- thrifted

Hello, loves! I just wanted to make a quick pose. I am doing a last minute pack for my families vacation trip to states. I literally only have a couple hours left to finish packing but I don't seem to have the concentration do it. So, I'm taking a break and blogging instead.

Anyhoo, I want you to introduce to my LWD (a.ka. Little White Dress). I got this dress from the last sale zara had (winter collection). It took me awhile to post this because when I bought the dress, it was two sizes bigger than my usual size. Last week I finally got a chance to mend it and do some alterations. What I like about this lwd is that it is just incredibly versatile, with the blank-canvas hue and a classic shape that will last for multiple seasons. I'll be able to dress up or down and accessorize this dress in a ton of different ways. Obviously, I added this to my luggage and I can't wait to re-style it!

Thank you for visiting!

Vacation (Part 1)

Hi loves, I'm back! Before anything else I would like to greet everyone a very Happy New Year! I hope you had a great holiday and enjoyed being with family and friends.

I went to Guam for a vacation and family-visit a couple months ago, I just got back in Dec. These long overdue photos from my R&R are some of the activities my family and I did. There's quite a lot of pictures but I'm only showing half of it. Forgive me for the late update!  As you may know, coming from a vacation it is very difficult to get back into the swing of things (mostly if you had an awesome time). Going back to the kingdom is very hard for me especially because there's really nothing to look forward to during the holidays. Christmas has always been kept under wraps in Saudi. Expatriates had a holiday party but, that's about it. You can't really feel that there's a special season coming. Anyhow, I survived my first Christmas here in the kingdom! So, here I am reminiscing about my last vacay. Here are all pics, enjoy!

Here is one of the attractions we visited. This is place called the "Two Lovers Point" or "Puntan Dos Amantes."  Theres a lovely story behind the  place, which you can read about HERE

3 ways to wear (Shift Dress)

Hi, loves! I am back! First of all I wanted to thank all of you who wished me luck on my last post. Just a little update about my mom, she's doing fine now. Hopefully her papers will be complete before the end of the year. If all goes well, she will be staying with me for as long as she wants.

Any how, back to the focus of this blog! Since I was absent for a long time, I decided to make it up to you guys. Here's my 3 ways (I know it's been a while since the last one). To recap, the 3 ways is about how to take a single clothing item and maximize it into 3 different outfits. This post is for some of you planning to go vacation (like me). Since I'll be going to a city, I chose a shift dress that I can layer to accommodate different types of activities I am planning to do. 

Outfit 1: Dress (out of stock) similar here Promod Skirt (Philippine brand) similar here Mango Sunnies Topshop Purse LV Sandals: Zara

First, I will probably check the local attractions. This mean lots of walking and pair of flat sandals is essential. And of course, you've got to protect those beautiful eyes from sun rays while checking out the local souvenir stores.

Outfit 2: Dress Promod Demin Vest & Purse Target Wedges similar here Mango Touch

Second, shopping, shopping and shopping did I say shopping yet? Yup, checking out the shopping places is a must :). On this one, because the dress is tiny bit body hugging, I added a denim vest and a pair of wedges to make the look casual and not too "sexy" for day time.

Outfit 3: Dress Promod Jacket (old) similar F21 Necklace flea market from Philippines Clutch DIY Shoes (old) similar here Zara

Third, of course if you're travelling with loved ones, a group of friends or, in my case, with Hubby, you have got to have a night out. To try the local restaurant, night club or whatever is the "night out" means for you. I added black jacket, black heels and because the rest of my outfit is simple I let the necklace do the statement.

There you go, one dress, 3 outfits. Remember, packing and outfit planning ahead of time is the key to making the trip easy and simple. How about you guys, how do you plan your outfits when traveling?

Thanks for visiting!

foggy day(outfit)

This is how foggy it was all day and night

Hi lovelies! How was your weekend? The weekend for me is typically our family days.  We usually go places and eat out or stay home and watch movies. Yesterday was not a good day to take photos outside or anywhere in DC.  It was very foggy all day long. That's why Hubby and I decided to take my OOTD photos at the patio in our apartment. Thanks to my husband for good camera settings.  we got enough lighting and he even added some "leaves effects" hehehe.

On to my outfit! I'm wearing this high/low dress or, as they call it "mullet".  I bought this dress a couple weeks ago (check your local H&M store, it's on sale!).  It's two sizes bigger than what my usual size is, but, because the dress is too fitted, two size bigger is perfectly fit for me. What I like about this dress is that there is plenty of room to accessorize.  I can also make different styles to wear.  For now, I just throw on some scarves, added a leopard belt, and paired it with boots.

Have a glamorous day! Hope you'll have a great week ahead!

Xoxo,

Amor

We've finally settled in & will be here for a while.  Moving here really wore me out, the chaos of packing and unpacking was exhausting!  Not that I'm complaining, just venting a little :). It's a great city with many interesting sites!

Here was my going away outfit, this was our last week in Seattle.

Thank you so much for visiting! Have a wonderful day! Xoxo

Howdy!

Hi lovelies! I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far! I received a beautiful gift from Sugarlips. I really like how feminine this Acapulco Dress is. It's good to wear in warm weather like we had yesterday when we went for a stroll. However, I'm not very comfortable with how short it is but I wore it anyway! :). I wore the dress because I really like the details of the flower embroidery on top and how "flowy" it is on the bottom. Check out Sugarlips Apparel for this dress or  for the other beautiful clothes they have! :).

Thank you so much for stopping by! Xoxo
