WHAT IS NEW IN MY WARDROBE JANUARY 2020-PART 2

Welcome back! Here is part two of the items that are new to my wardrobe from January. While part one were items I bought in store, all of the items in this post were purchased online. Even though it is the middle of winter, I did buy some pieces that would be great for my favorite season, spring! Pastels, florals, ruffles, dresses, light weight fabrics and etc are key elements that I keep an eye out to update for spring.

1. These slim-fit pants from H&M are a classic beige color that would replace my usual black leggings to help lighten any outfit, especially for the office. 2. I quickly snatched up this floral puff sleeve dress from LoveShackFancy when they were having an extra 25% off their sale section. This ultra feminine dress would be perfect with a pair of white espadrilles and a straw bag for spring and summer. 3. As soon as I spotted these glitter bow slingback flats from ASOS, I immediately put them in my cart. I was actually looking for a pair of flats that were similar this stunning pair of Jimmy Choo flats. The flats on ASOS are actually a dupe of this cool pair from REDValentino. 4. The cream crossbody bucket bag has a designer look to it, when it is actually an affordable option from Amazon. It is a good medium size that will carry my daily essentials without it being too big or bulky. 5. You can never go wrong with a fuzzy robe, especially this super soft pink one also from ASOS. 6. Can't forget to add some new sparkle to my jewelry collection. This is actually an ear cuff set from Amazon. The pearl ones are so gorgeous, they are definitely my favorite pair from the whole set. They look much more expensive then they actually are. 7. After placing an order for the LoveShackFancy dress, I noticed this adorable pair of floral tennis shoes from the same sale. These will add a girly touch to any casual outfit and is a literal representation of the word, "spring"in a shoe.

Have you added any new pieces in your wardrobe lately?

WHAT IS NEW IN MY WARDROBE JANUARY 2020-PART 1

I will admit I did some damage when it came to shopping this past January. After working long hours during the holiday season, I wanted to treat myself to some new products to add to my wardrobe. Since I have accumulated quite a bit of items, I have decided to make this post into two separate parts. Part one will be products I bought in store, while part two will be the bits I got from online shopping. Part two of what's new in my wardrobe in January will be posted soon!

This skirt I picked up was the highlight of the whole shopping trip. I was browsing around in Saks off Fifth, my go to store to find high quality items at a great discount. As soon as I spotted this skirt on a rack, I made a beeline straight towards it. Instantly, I recognized that the skirt is from Zimmermann due to the iconic lace trimming. I internally screamed when I saw this because Zimmermann is one my favorite designer brands. They always nail it when it comes to their signature floaty, floral and feminine clothing pieces. Apart from the delicate lace detailing, this high waisted skirt is a light cream color with a beautiful pink floral pattern that will be perfect for the spring and summer seasons. The top right beside it is from Zara and would go perfectly with the skirt. It was actually during Zara's annual sale when I picked this up, so the price was really good. This blouse is made from a lightweight chiffon material, is in a soft blush shade and has the cutest tie bow detail at the neckline. It would be a perfect blouse for the office or to dress up for date night!

Next, I made a rare trip to Sephora. I don't usually go to Sephora since I rarely wear makeup, but I wanted to go in this time to check out Clinique's 72-hour Moisture Surge. I have dry skin and it especially needed moisture due to the frigid cold weather. Also, I wanted to improve my skin care regime. A couple of my favorite fashion bloggers raved about this product so I wanted to give it a shot. It has been a few weeks since I first tried it out and I AM IN LOVE. It feels so light and it easily absorbs into my skin. My skin feels replenished whenever I put this on after I was my face. Definitely recommend to those who have dry and sensitive skin. Right now I am using the travel sized version, but I will definitely pick up the normal sized one once this runs out. The other item I bought in Sephora was the classic Gucci Bloom rollerball perfume. The first time I discovered this scent was when I received a free sample at the Gucci beauty counter in Germany last summer. It is a lovely sweet floral scent that I like to roll on my wrists. On a superficial note, I love the red floral packaging and the smooth pink container. Even though it is just a rollerball, it is apparent that this perfume is high quality with its scent and packaging.

Last but not least, I wanted to peak in at Pandora. Pandora has some stunning jewelry and I couldn't resist since they were having a 50% sale on select items. For awhile, I was browsing on the website, looking at some precious rose gold rings. I adore the pretty things in life, especially jewelry to add a hint of glam to any outfit. This rose gold bow ring was one of the rings I was eyeing on the website and luckily it was part of the sale! Not only that it represents my signature style, one of my favorite fashion bloggers, Fashion Mumblr, owns it too. I like to stack it with my other rose gold rings, such as bands. Sometimes, I like to mix metals by wearing rose gold and yellow gold jewelry as well. Stacking rings and sometimes mixing medals look very chic in my opinion.

MY OOTD FOR 1/29/20

Lately, I have been in a style rut due to the cold, gloomy weather. So, I decided to add my favorite color (Pink of course!) to my daily outfit to brighten up the mood. I went for the same pink, wool-like coat from my last OOTD post. This piece of outerwear has been in my wardrobe for a year now and I still love to bring it out when I want to add color to my winter attire. Underneath is a fringe knitted sweater that is a dupe for one that I found on Shopbop. The leggings I am wearing are also the same ones I wore from my last post. They are so damn comfortable, I wear them out all the time. It might be hard to tell in the picture, but I am wearing my signature black, over the knee boots! They remind me of the Stuart Weitzman's without the hefty price tag. Although I would love to indulge in a pair, how gorgeous are they!?

These are the accessories I decided to use to finish off the outfit. This super pretty, pendent necklace (old, similar here) from Kate Spade is one of my favorites that I picked up when I used to work there. Since the metal is gold, I thought it would go perfectly with this gold pearl hair clip. It actually comes in a variety pack of different pearl hair clips that are simply darling. Even though I rarely wear makeup, I wanted to wear a shade on my lips that would match with the sweater. It is a neutral pink shade from NYX called, Euro Trash. I found it last year as a dupe for Charlotte Tilbury's popular matte lipstick called, Pillow Talk.
