OOTD: Casual with a touch of Sparkle!

Hi ladies and gents,

It has definitely been a while!  I am so sorry for being so MIA over the past  who-knows-how-long.  I blame work and my lack of social life.  My only form of social media interaction has been instagram - where I seem to be able to remember to post ootd and miscellaneous other tidbits of my life.  So if you're interested in seeing more of me, my instagram is cocomechanel.

Today, I have a brief OOTD for you that I posted on instagram.  I figured every time I post one of these there, I'll post it here with a break down.

OOTD: Rumour Has It - Pink Leopard on Black

There is something very something very simple and sophisticated to me about wearing one solid colour and accentuating it with a "pop" - either print, a bold statement piece or colour.   That is essentially what this outfit was inspired by.  I was going for simple and yet fun - perfect for a girls night out.

OOTD: When in Vegas...

My first OOTD!  It always seems to me that it's hard to get someone to help taking ootd pictures, so for my first one, I decided to feature one of my favourite "girls night out" outfits - something I coincidentally brought with me to Vegas.

I love dresses.  I also love having one main piece and working my outfit around it.  This dress, I stumbled upon at Forever 21 a few years back.  Initially, I was worried that it would emphasize my bottom half, but with careful styling, it's actually quite flattering.
