What you imagine you create

 What I wore on Sunday to the Hip Hop Nutcracker Show...

So what if we drink?

Last night's outfit was a collaboration of couple inspirations actually. 

One was from Forever 21's lookbook:

The other was from a SHOPBOP look book:

The concept was the same: leather pants harem stye or skinny topped with a white top and the shaggy blush pink coat and a clutch and heels.
I could have gone with the satin jogger styles pants I have but leather felt more right for the night.
Plus I felt a silkier white top was better than a white t-shirt. And couldn't resist adding a bit of accessories. Black and white ankle cuff sandals blended with the skinny pants so nicely.

I also tried a slightly different hair style last night. Used a curling iron instead of a flat iron to create soft waves. 

All my friends will confirm that this coat looks shaggy and wiry but it is actually super soft and so touchable and totally keeps you warm and I kept it on all night and it felt like a cardigan.

TUESDAY:

We skipped the outdoor class cause it was such a late night from the rehearsal the night before and it was still very cold. We took it easy and showered and got ready and went to the indoor play area for a little while then did costco shopping and came home to unload then rushed to pick up my son and came back home. I got ready to go out while my husband and dad sat down to dinner with the kids. 

Met up with the girls starting with happy hour. We felt like we had so much time before our dinner reservations but time just flies with them and we even had to push it back so we had time to finish our wine. Then it was to the restaurant for a nice holiday dinner. I always leave these night with just such amazing feeling of warmth and joy. I could never imagine life without my girlfriends...

Happy Holidays with my girls!

Lap of Luxury

 This was my outfit during the 2nd part of Friday night. After the jumpy place we went home to put the kids to bed and leave them with my mom and changed went out downtown to have more normal grown up celebration of my brother's birthday...

The inspiration was from December 2012 issue of In Style Magazine:

 I liked the stark contrast between bright purple top and white blazer. And the hot pink clutch...

SATURDAY

Saturday afternoon's outfit as part of our mommy spa day was inspired by Nov 2012 issue of Allure:

We had a fabulous day at the spa/pool/steam room. Then went to happy hour and dinner and spent hours chatting and laughing and barely made it (10 minutes late) to our movie. The movie was way too low and a bit downer and the hot movie we expected from Ryan Gosling and Bradley cooper but it was at a luxury theater and the seats and pop corn combo was great!

 This dish was called 'The Angry Fish' it is a huge white fish fried whole and very crispy and yummy. We did a number on it as you can see below.... We had it with garlic noodles and crispy brussel sprouts. Our apps were $1 oysters and crispy rice. Really yummy food I have to say! Drinks started with  cucamber gin and tonics...

Keep on Rockin'

 This was my outfit going out with my 3 other mommy friends for a girl's night out!

The inspiration was from the Fashion Coolture blog which has become my go to inspiration blog for going out outfits. 

 I love her use of OTK socks with booties. They provide warmth and look so sexy even though you actually show less skin than going bare legged with the mini skirt!
