Macy's Petite Dresses Clearance - Holiday Office Party



Hi Ladies,

It's that time of year again! When all companies need to cram in an office party before the year is up. If you are part of the planning committee you probably started thinking about this at the beginning of December. Then by the time you got all the approvals, you realized that this week is the last week before everyone goes on Holiday. Then you spent all your time organizing, and since you are hosting the party  you need to look special and are stuck hunting for the perfect dress at the last minute. If you are an attendee, you have probably put off shopping because the malls are so crazy. Well, I can help! Look no farther than Macy's Petite Dresses Clearance online section. At this point you'll probably have to do overnight shipping, but with these sale prices...who cares? When I go to Macy's site, I like to sort by lowest price and work my way down. I always find some gems! What are your favorites from below?

I love this dress! I wish I had a holiday office party to wear it to. :( It covers up all the necessary bits, so it's appropriate for an office party, but it has that cute bow. I would recommend wearing it with some great black pumps and a clutch and let the dress speak for itself!





If you work in a more formal work environment, this dress is perfect because it's covers your arms with the cap sleeves. It's a black sheath so you can dress it up any way you want: a statement necklace, a simple diamond necklace and elegant pumps, a fur stole...the options are limitless!


This dress is more festive and you can throw on a black blazer to stay warm and tone down the festiveness if you desire. :)



This dress could be worn if you work in a more creative environment. Add a cute black blazer to stay warm.



Take care Ladies and Happy Holidays!

Curvy, Petite Outfit Ideas | Professional and Casual-Chic Fashion and Style Inspiration | 3 Ways to Style a Wrap Dress

Hi Ladies,
Who doesn't love the simplicity and flattery of a wrap dress? It's great to throw on when you have nothing to wear, but unfortunately it comes with a few challenges to work through. Never fear! Here's my guide to overcoming them:

A Few Days in So Cal!

Hi Ladies,
Sorry, it took me so long to post this. My mom and I took a road trip to San Diego and Santa Monica for NYE. We had a wonderful time and I want to share our favorite experiences. This post focuses on two of my favorite things...food and fashion!

What We Ate:

I had a Mollette with vegetarian chorizo. I am not vegetarian and could not see how anything could hold up to real chorizo...however, this was delicious! They use a black bean spread and make their own bread...fantastic...especially for about $6. My mom got the quiche and it looked really good too...more cheese than egg. :)


Do yourself a favor and go here...I could take up an entire 2 pages writing about them, but I will try to be concise. Their slogan says it all: "eclectic cuisine of small plates infused with chocolate, vanilla or caramel". Think sweet and savory.
 spiced pumpkin french toast - not too sweet, but came with syrup if you want it. Filled with pumpkin cream cheese and some sort of cream. Also sprinkled with candied ginger...mmmm.


 garlic parmesan biscuits


avocado benedict - comes with a burnt carmel hollandaise sauce, which i know sounds weird on eggs benedict, but it was really subtle. This is now my favorite eggs benedict in the world!

basil mimosa...basil makes everything better!

A great place to eat when you are doing the rounds at the Nordstrom in Santa Monica. This is one of Nordstrom's specialty restaurants and features tapas. I've eaten here the past 3 times I was in L.A. and everything I've ordered has been delicious.


Asian Latin fusion...tapas and small plates...the drinks and entres are always great! Our favorites were spicy jumbo crab guacamole and tempura asparagus tacos. I would've had pictures, but got distracted when the food came. :( I highly reccomed checking out their "all you can eat" tapas brunch which includes brunch cocktails!


What I Wore:
This was my favorite outfit!



Pearls/ Rhinestone Necklace/ Top (old, Limited)/ Pants/ Shoes

Where We Stayed:
We stayed in a stunning hotel in Santa Monica: The Shore Hotel.

I highly recommend it for couples...checkout the picture below:
Yes, the entire wall dividing the bedroom and bathroom is made of glass...giving you a clear shot of the shower and toilet. My mom and I stared at each other in horror until the bell hop explained that you can lower a shade for privacy. :) Thank goodness!

Question: Where have you traveled lately?
