Dubai Desert Safari-what-to-wear

When I booked my flight to Dubai, I knew that going to the Dubai Desert Safari was one of the things I had to do before I left. Is it not every day you get to ride a camel or watch a belly dancer right? Finding the right company was a job of his own. Dubai is a tourist destination; the options are endless. There are some good ones and some not so good ones. Most tour companies offer relatively the same kind of experience. Depending on what you can afford, your experience might be slightly different. Do your research and read reviews before booking anything. I booked my tour via viator.com.

Traveling in Comfort and Style: What to wear to the airport

May 26, 2016
 
 
What to wear to the airport from cold to warm ( plus size)
As you probably already know I am currently on a trip to Dubai and Abu Dhabi with my sister. I will tell you more about our vacation later, in the meantime see all my photos on Instagram. I love travelling the world and discovering new places and cultures. I remember when I was younger, I used to dress up for the plane ride. When I said dress up, I mean nice dress, heels and everything like I was a celebrity. I hope you caught the sarcasm, because no one can dress like those celebrities with high knee boots and heels coming from the airport like they’re shooting a movie. I can’t say I do not envy them , but that is just not real life.

This combination is a print lover’s dream.The top and and bottom have both great styling potentials in case you absolutely do not like mixing prints and patterns. Read More »

White Midi Dress + Printed Bomber Jacket

May 6, 2016

Just like the LBD (little black dress) a white dress is a wardrobe staple. You’ll probably not wear it as much as your LBD, but it’s good to have one or two in your wardrobe. I bought this one during my trip to New York last year from the Jibri sample sale.
As usual this cute midi dress has been waiting for its turn.This is my only piece from Jibri, but that will change soon.The dress is heavy and very well made. I paired it with one of my absolute favorite bomber jackets from Old Navy. This look is perfect a mother’s day brunch. I’ve linked to some fabulous bomber jackets and white dresses below.

Le Château Style | Peplum top + Mesh Midi Skirt

April 30, 2016

Every month, I get to pick out a few things I am loving from Le Château. The choice was not easy this month because of the all the amazing Spring options both in store and online. I picked this mesh midi skirt with my beautiful peplum top in mind. I took a little break from wearing peplums, but as you can see I am back at it again. Peplums are perfect for work, they are also easy to transition into date night looks. The skirt reminds me of my tube skirt that everyone seems to love.
