Zaful Cocktail Dress

When it comes to shopping for cocktail dresses, I prefer short dresses and those with a fit-and-flare style. They are the ones that can be easily transitioned into more casual outfits so that you can get more wear out of your cocktail dress. For special occasion wear, it is always an issue of practicality. Like most women, I would not want to invest a lot of money on a dress that I probably won't wear again (or at least not too often).

This is why I instantly knew that this dress was a must-have when I saw it on Zaful. The color, obviously, is a favorite of mine so it did not take more convincing on my end to get this dress. For this look, I decided to dress it up with a pair of nude ankle strap heels and statement necklace. But I also plan on wearing it with a pair of strappy flat sandals or even sneakers!

Again, Zaful exceeded my expectations and as I have a few more orders from them on the way, I can't help to get excited about them!

Anyone here agree with the title of this post? I don't know what is it about tie-front details that appeal to me. But I figure it's probably the casual appeal it adds to an outfit. This top from Dresslily wasn't exactly a tie-front top but I decided to undo some of the buttons at the bottom to be able to tie them together. It is fun to reinvent pieces from your wardrobe and create a totally different look than what it is designed for.

This top wasn't a favorite of mine when I first got it. I got it initially because I loved the color. But I'm slowly warming up to it especially as I discover new ways to wear it. But this one is my favorite styling idea yet. I'm pretty sure this won't be the last time that I will be sporting this look... but will probably switch out the heels for a pair of strappy sandals or flip flops!

What are your thoughts on tie-front details? Love it or hate it?

Valentine's Day might be over but romance is still in the air. This pink hollow out flare dress from Shein is giving me that vibe, at least. The moment I saw this dress on the website, I couldn't get myself to not buy it especially at only $27. If you have been a regular reader, then you know that Shein is one of my favorite places to shop for online. This one is another great deal I've found on the website and it makes for the perfect date night dress.

I know a lot of women who would refuse to wear pink. Not me - I like all kinds of pink. Hot pink, blush, peach, old rose and coral are just a few of my favorites. In fact, I convinced my husband to make peach one of our wedding motifs for our big day (peach and mint were our wedding colors). Thus, I envisioned wearing this dress to a special date night with him. Thankfully, I don't have to wait for Valentine's Day to get a romantic treat as we make it a point to have date nights at least once a month.

If you are looking for romantic date night dresses, Shein has a few more options below (as my dress is currently sold out): 

Black Hollow Out Flare Dress / Pink Hollow Out Flare Dress / Grey A-Line Dress

Black Crochet Lace Dress / Red Hollow Out Fit & Flare Dress / Pink Oversized Bell Sleeve Dress

Red and Valentine's Day is one cliche of a combo. However, it is part of a long tradition that has been around for centuries. While I am not big on Valentine's Day celebration, this red wrap midi dress from eShakti has me inspired for a date night look. I love the classic style of a red dress because it is simple yet demands attention. Hence, it is a no-brainer choice for a Valentines Day look. Speaking of classic, my new classic watch from Lord Timepieces is the perfect compliment to this dress. Simple yet classy.

There is no need to try anything fancy with these women's watches from Lord Timepieces. I am wearing the Classic Tan model with an ivory white dial, lined with gold and a tan brown leather strap. It is a simple, no non-sense style that goes with any outfit. You can therefore wear it with a dressy outfit like I have showcased here or you can go for a casual but effortless style.
