Floral Blazer At Sienna Ray

Today was so much fun!  I went back to Sienna Ray to pick out my favorite handbag and I got to film a little video for them showing different ways to style the bag.  Besides being able to pick my own bag, the best part was spending time with one of my favorite bloggers Melanee, who is visiting from LA.  Mel and I have been supporting each other's blogs for a couple of months now and we've also been texting and emailing so it was so great to finally meet in person!  We say that we are soul sisters and I feel like I have known her for years we are so alike! She's the sweetest, love you Mel!  She took these pics by the way :)

Blazer: C/O LexMila/ Top: Express/ Leggings: Forever21/ Shoes: Mandee/ Bag: C/O OASAP/ Sunnies: Target

I took off my coat for these pictures so I was freezing! This is not an almost winter outfit, but I wanted to get dressed up since I was doing a video for Sienna Ray!  I picked this floral print blazer from LexMila because I thought it was such a nice statement piece and a great addition to my blazer collection. I purposely kept everything all black so it would really pop and then went with gold accessories and my studded handbag.

I picked their Apres Clutch Mini because I think it's so cute for this holiday season and really any time in general.  I always wear gold accessories and I don't have any gold bags so I was sold!  You can use this as a mini clutch, handbag, over the shoulder or cross body.  Love the versatility! 

Trying on vintage shades from EBK eyewear!

With Melanee! We might be doing a shoot together tomorrow so stay tuned! :) 

And now the winner of my GIVEAWAY is.... SENDY! Congrats love, I will be emailing you shortly! I will be announcing the second part of my giveaway tomorrow!

Little Pink Coat

Finally, no more rain today!  It's still not the prettiest day so I wanted wear something a little colorful to brighten up my mood. 

Today is the last day to enter my GIVEAWAY! I will be announcing the winner and the next giveaway on my blog either tomorrow or Thursday.  Good luck and thank you to everyone who entered so far!

 Coat: C/O LoveShoppingMiami/ Top & Bag: H&M/ Jeans: Forever21/ Scarf: Juicy Couture(gifted)/ Shoes: Zara/ Bracelet: C/O TheWayWeAre

I was really happy to work with Love Shopping Miami again.  They have such cute things and they've gotten many more new arrivals since the last time.  I especially love their selection of outerwear.  It's a nice mix of jackets, blazers and cardigans.  I have many coats that are a little more dressy, so I really liked that this one could be worn casually.  Make sure to check out the rest of the items on their site!

I feel like it's been awhile since I wore regular blue denim and even when I do, I still like to wear heels. I wanted to add a little bit more color, so I threw on this purple and pink Juicy Couture scarf that I received a few years ago as a Christmas gift.  I love how it makes this outfit stand out more.  I'm also wearing this lovely crystal chain bracelet from TheWayWeAre.  A little sparkle for the holiday season! I have on a simple loose fitted white tee and these low heel nude shoes.  This is a super casual and laid back outfit but still a little dressed up with accessories :)

Have a great day loves!

SHOP MY CLOSET ON POSHMARK

Happy Monday loves!  

It's been so rainy and gloomy the past two days so I haven't been able to do outfit photos unfortunately.  Before I get into today's post, just a reminder to enter my GIVEAWAY with ZooShoo!  You have the rest of today and all of tomorrow to enter so don't forget! :) 

Just in case you haven't heard of PoshMark, it's a great app that let's you sell items from your closet and shop other women's closets too directly from your iPhone!  I have to say that I have tried selling my things on a few other sites and I never had much success till I started listing things on PoshMark.  They keep 20% of everything that you sell, but it's really not that bad.  You can avoid PayPal taking out fees by depositing the money directly into your bank account, requesting a check or using that money to buy items on PM.  Shipping is super easy and hassle free which is what really sold me!  They have flat rate fees, (right now they only ship within US) and as soon as you make a sale, they email a prepaid shipping label within seconds.  All you have to do is box it up and ship it out.  They have Posh Parties every day with specific themes and I had the honor of hosting my own not too long ago!  It really allows you to share everything from your closet to thousands of other girls on the app.  Posh Mark really is a great little fashion community! 

Here's some of the things that I have listed in MY CLOSET! 

Van Heusen Cropped Poncho Style Coat 

ShoeDazzle Gold Shoes

H&M Cardigan

H&M Blazer

Forever21 Grey Skirt 

Miss Selfridge Embellished Dress

BCBG Curve Skirt 

Black Jacket 

Arden B Gold Faux Leather Jacket 

Black & Grey Printed Dress 

GUESS Party Dress 

Everything I list is in great condition and has either been worn once or not at all.  Some things still have tags too!  Make sure to check out the rest of my items on POSHMARK, and if you download the app (it's free) follow me on there to keep up to date with all my listings! Username is NatyMichele.  I also have my closet linked in the tab at the top of my blog "Shop My Closet." :)

Such A Stud

Yay for Friday!  I'm hoping to have a relaxing next couple of days because this past week has been super hectic for me and next week is getting filled up pretty quickly too!  So far it's been a rainy morning and the perfect opportunity to blog, catch up on emails and enjoy a huge cup of coffee!  I wore this outfit on Wednesday and although it wasn't that cold, it was super windy so I had to hurry up and get a few shots outside.  I am dreading the temperature drop that is coming soon.

Details 

Sweater: Forever21/ Pants: H&M/ Shoes: Mandee/ Sunnies: Target 

I just wanted to wear something comfy and casual so what's better than a loosely fitted sweater? 

 I'm obsessed with the studs on this one.  It dresses up the sweater a bit and adds a nice edgy touch.  I can't help but wear red lately since I am in the holiday spirit and I love the grey/red combo.  The pants really make the outfit stand out.  When putting your outfits together each day, think a little bit outside of the box.  Instead of pairing a top like this with regular jeans, think about colored denim, or prints.  A simple change like that can make a big difference with your look.

 I was hesitant on these shoes at first because even though they match perfectly, I didn't want to overdo it with the grey.  But in the end, they won because nothing else I had looked as good lol
I kept everything else super simple with a nude lip and minimal silver accessories.   Wearing sunglasses is like second nature to me. My outfits feel incomplete during the day if I don't have them on.  Do any of  you feel this way too?


Make sure to enter part one of my GIVEAWAY!

I hope that you all have a lovely weekend

OPTION ONE

Debut Collared Tank: I thought this was such a cute top for this holiday season!  I really loved the embellished collar with silver sequins.  It's simple but still stands out.  

OPTION TWO 

Concrete Couture Shredded tee: I thought this was such an edgy top with the skull cutout in the back.  It has a fun rocker vibe.  Great statement piece!

Call On Her Blouse: Love this rust color.  You can cuff the sleeves up or roll them down and there's a tie in front. This is a perfect top to either dress up or down.

Winter White Remix

Thank you so much everyone for your amazing comments on yesterday's blogiversary post!

The weather the past few days has been absolutely amazing so I took full advantage.  I actually wore this outfit on Monday, but since I've had so much to post about this week, I decided to save it for today.    I wanted to switch things up a little bit and go for a really clean and sleek look.  Wearing white is a pretty big trend this fall/winter season, so this is my take on it.  I did a little Naty remix!

Details 

Jeans & Top: H&M/ Blazer & Shoes: Forever21/ Bag: MetroPark/ Sunnies: Ray-Ban

There's just something about white on white that really draws me in.  It looks super polished and classic. Button ups are a great staple piece to have as they go with so many things, so I decided to pair one of mine under this blazer with the sleeves rolled up.  I haven't worn these grey jeans in awhile, so I decided to put them to good use. I kept everything neutral, including my handbag, and added a surprising pop of color with these red heels and red lip.  It's a fun and simple way to spice up the look a little bit.  

I'm wearing silver spike bracelets from Forever21, Aldo earrings and H&M rings.  Putting my hair into a high ponytail was the perfect finishing touch as it added to the whole sleek look that I was trying to achieve.  I cannot believe how quickly my hair is growing!  How do you feel about throwing in an unexpected color to your outfits and how will you wear white this season? 

I feel like my days have been one huge blur.  I swear I have no concept of time anymore but I guess that's a good thing because it means that I am keeping busy! By the way, you can now shop my closet over at PoshMark.  I took everything off the store envy site. The link is also in the tabs on top of my blog.  

 Happy hump day loves!
