I hope all of you had a great Christmas! I enjoyed the time spent with my family. This year we did something a little different. Instead of our usual Secret Santa game, we decided to donate the money we would spend on a gift to a charity. This year we chose St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital. It is such a great feeling to give to those who truly need. We also played a w game that is new to me called the white elephant (click the link for directions because it is too much to explain lol). We definitely had a lot of fun Sunday night. My niece said this was fun I can’t wait until next Christmas lol. Kids are too cute.

Ok so let’s get to business. I was really indecisive about what to wear. I had about four different looks planned in my head but nothing came together, so I just ended up wearing a dress that I recently purchased from searsStyle (check the post).

I paired it with a pair of color-block heels from Material Girl because my dress has hues of blue throughout the design. It was an unusual match, but I think it came together pretty well.

I paired it with a blazer from Charlotte Russe and jewelry from a random store in the Jewelry District. I wore my favorite tights, Hanes Silk Reflections Black Out Opaque tights that I received from Kitty Bradshaw’s Meet N’ Tweet.

I created this photo with this app on my iphone. I’m addicted! lol

Here is a close up of my shoes

Here is a pic of my siblings and niece

I so want to steal my sister’s stockings! I would wear my niece’s skirt too, I was able to fit it lol (sad I know, but I love sequins). I love shawl collar sweaters and my bro got a little fancy with the canvas closure.

I also promised you all a snapshot of my holiday mani. Well here it is

It is pretty simple. I used red Zoya nail polish on all fingers except my pinky, which I chose to paint a silver glitter. As for the designs, very simple- white, sliver, green, and gold stripes (Christmas colors) and white and silver stars.

Well that’s it for me folks! What inspired your look this Christmas?

The Material Girl is spontaneous and Fearless.
She loves to shop and she mixes her fast fashion with designer pieces.
She invents her own fashion trends and is never afraid to make a bold creative statement.
Influenced by her eclectic taste in music, dance and Hollywood.

The wait is over for the most anticipated launch of the summer, “Material Girl” by the original Material Girl herself Madonna, and daughter Lourdes (Lola). There will be prizes and giveaways at the launch, but you have to get there early!

The first 200 people on line will receive a bandeau top from the collection and a $10 giftcard to shop the collection. Those who show up in their best “Material Girl” inspired outfit will win an autographed t-shirt by Madonna. This deal is only offered in 6 cities and of course NYC is one of them! 

The celebration continues later that evening around 5pm with a special appearance and live performance by actress and singer, Taylor Momsen only in New York.


Some may feel this line is a bit “young” but there are great pieces in this collection that can update your look without you looking like a teeny bopper. The key is knowing the right pieces to mix and match. They have a great motorcycle jacket that can be paired with a pair of skinny jeans and a simple t-shirt or their collection of rings can update any look.

About Material Girl:
The “Material Girl” collection was inspired and designed in collaboration with Madonna and her daughter Lourdes, along with Iconix Brand Group’s in-house fashion department. In addition to the back-to-school apparel collection, “Material Girl” will also launch in multiple categories including footwear, handbags and jewelry. The collection will retail from $12.00 to $40.00, comparative with pricing strategies at junior specialty stores. The strategy for growth will include additional categories in the lifestyle and beauty sectors, including fragrance, beginning 2011 as well as a rollout into additional Macy’s stores.
