7 Special Shoes

I have obsession for Shoes...

A colleague recently was mentioning that, "Sometimes it makes me feel better that I have that shoe, even I don't wear them often" 

        I was sooooo tempted to tell her that I feel the same! :)

Anyways, recently I bought some pairs of shoes that I LOVE so much as they fit like a glove and make me feel special..


1.  Ann Taylor ColorBlock Leather Heels



2. Ann Taylor Kitten Heels

I was skeptical about buying these because we bought this online and was a Final Sale item.. But, I am sooo glad I bought because it is the most amazing and comfortable heels I have ever bought- I am even considering buying another pair just as a back-up since my current one has alot of wear.. What do you ladies think, should I?


3. J. Crew Emery Bow Flats

I simply rock these flats, they are so amazing! I have these in Navy Grey and Navy with sparkle bow too.. I know it's kinda too much but, can't have enough.. ;)


And the grey ones..


3. J. Crew Emery Bow Flats

Told you I have in Navy too...



4. J. Crew Suede Flats

These are so comfortable and so amazing.. Makes any outfit look special! 


5. Ikat Print Isabelle Heels:

I cannot brag enough about these heels, these gave me plenty of compliments everytime I wore these.. My most favorite heels.




These do make a little noise when I walk, so I haven't worn to work yet as my workplace is a little quite but, I wore it to a date night and also when gone for clubbing, they fit and look amazing.. 


As I said in my post about My Recent Purchases, I usually don't spend ALOT on sandals but, I had to buy these-- These fit like a glove.. so Amazing and looks so great!


I have many more shoes whose pictures I will put on this post later during the week... 

Last but not least, today my boyfriend took me out for drinks at BJs restaurant during their Happy Hour! I was so happy because we didn't get to spend much time over the weekend and past few days due to his busy work-schedule..

I had 'not so guilty cosmo' and he had a couple of beers. We also ordered some avacado egg rolls and some flat bread.. It was yummy! <3


My 'not-so-guilty-cosmo' 

                          

Our flatbread and avacado egg rolls! Yumm.. 

We also had some thai food followed up with amazing dessert yesterday after our swimming session.. 


Our Mango Sticky Rice.. Mmmm

10 WAYS You CAN Become REALLY CHIC too..

There is a popular belief,  "Really Chic Women Are Superhuman"

This isn't true at all.. By adding these few simple things to your routine can make you Really Chic too..

Really Chic Women Aren't Superhuman- You CAN Become Really Chic too..

1. Plan Your Outfit Night Before:

             Always try to plan your outfit the night before, which will give you some extra time to grab that special piece of accessory and add that extra look to your outfit.. It also saves you from panicking in the morning and the mess from trying out different outfits!

2. Give yourself plenty of time to get ready:
            Sleeping in that extra 5 minutes in the morning after your alarm is put it snooze is very tempting and comforting.. But, it only makes you panic in the morning and doesn't give you time to relax and get ready. So, get up 15 minutes before you plan to and then you won't be running out of the house with a button unfastened or mismatched shoes or un-tucked shirt! 

3. Follow some other fashion blogs for inspiration:
             Before I started writing blog, I used to follow atleast 10 good fashion bloggers for inspiration, which helped me alot and gave insight to what outfits are in latest trends as well as what goes with what.. Like it is said in Gossip Girl "Fashion is the most powerful art there is. It's movement, design...", to do something artful- you need inspiration and motive.. 




4. Stay True to your personal style:

            Find what kind of clothes suit you, find out what is the best feature in you and then try to enhance it.. Keep some classic pieces and classic colors that you can pull of any hour or any season.
It is very important to find that out.. 


5. Wear the right undergarments:

           Always remember that the right bra which is fitted right makes the outfit look perfect. Also, people don't just talk about spanx for that muffin majority of us have, it actually works! So, invest in these pieces and wear appropriate undergarment for the outfit to look perfect.


6. Dress for the occasion:

              Never be the one who is feeling uncomfortable in that mini skirt with a room full of professionally dresses people.. Always know where you are going and dress accordingly. When you are getting ready for work, think as- would my boss wear this? If the answer is no, then that means it is not appropriate for the work environment you are in. the more you practice this in life the more easier it will become to fit in and polished for the occasion.


7. Dress for the weather:

              It is very simple, always check the weather a day before and be prepared. I usually keep a pair of heels, a blazer and a scarf in my car because you never know when you get invited to drinks with friends or colleagues after work.


8. Ace The Look With One Expensive Looking Piece:

              Some women just look amazing with just sweat pants and tee or simple jeans with a plain t-shirt. Ofcourse it has to do with the fit and flare of the outfit but, also that special expensive looking piece that they add to this simple outfit. A great-looking leather belt or special earrings or a silk scarf does the trick to look Chic even in the sweatpants. :) 

              Along with adding that special piece also remember never to do too much of anything.. Remember not to accessorize too much or put too much make-up on as this will make you look cheap and will ruin the whole outfit.

9. Take care of your clothes:

              Always remember, your clothes are not going to look magically wrinkle-free or well-maintained- you need to follow some things in your routine for it. Always separate clothes for washing and dry-cleaning. This will save you time and give you long life with your purchases. Remember never to lounge in good clothes.. This is a very tempting thing to do- but never lounge in office pants or shirts. 

10. Always Have Fashion Emergency Kit:

               Never experience another embarrassing wardrobe malfunction with a Fashion Emergency Kit. Pack a compact box or a small makeup bag with Safety Pins, Few Hair Pins, Fashion Tape, Deodorant Removing Sponge, Sewing Kit, Lint Removing Sheets, Hypo-Allergenic Earring Back , Hand Band, Nail File, Blister Pad, Tide Pen to Remove Stains and a Shoe Shine Sponge. Great for travel, business event, or simple everyday outings.

Hope these tricks help you! Have a good Tuesday!

XOXO

Many of you would not know but, www.saksoff5th.com is a cheaper brand of Saks Fifth Avenue.

They were having 40% off Friends and Family Sale last week, which is a good sale with them.. They have great products and do not have BIG sales on everything most of the times..

Also, luckily I had 15% off coupon from them- which worked combined with the 40% off so that was a bonus for me and last but, not least I got Free Shipping! :)

Here is what I purchased..



               I wanted a rose gold toned watch which is not very expensive since sometime. I really love this one as soon as I opened the box.. It's genuine leather and the rose gold is very elegant and classy.. 

             I love everything made of clover- as soon as I saw this one, I knew it I have to buy this..
They have it in both colors- white and black. I bought both- its such a timeless piece and goes with everything. Very happy with my purchase..



 



            This purse is my all time favorite purchase in from Saks OFF 5th. :) I started using it as soon as I opened from it's box..



These flats are so comfotable, and the gold accent is just like a cherry on top.. Love it!
