Last week we flew to NYC to attend our Rihanna’s 30th Birthday. Rihanna looked gorgeous – as she always does. Loc and I had such a wonderful time. I wish I could show you some photos from the event because it was so beautifully done but the event was a camera free zone.
I’ve gained quite a bit of weight from the pregnancy and I wanted to look elegant without showing my arms and my curves. I’m wearing a vintage 1920’s duchess satin opera coat which is perfect over any dress.
If you have a black tie event to attend during your pregnancy, try to stick with something with a clean silhouette. I always like dresses that are cut on the bias because they are flattering around the belly and behind. A loose maxi dress is another great option. I also find myself sticking with 3/4 sleeve or long sleeve tops but I try to stay away from baby doll dresses and low cut styles during pregnancy.

There isn’t much more I love than a good jumpsuits for my summer getaway. They don’t take up much space in your luggage, you can wear them with flats for daytimes and add on espadrilles for nighttime. When I travel, I’m all about packing light. I always look for versatile items that can do the mix and match magic and cotton is my go to. Cotton feels wonderful next to your skin and breaths better in the hot climate. I only pack a few silk items for nicer dinner, they’re too fragile, and only look good when you steam it out nicely.
Tulum is extremely casual, the entire trip I didn’t wear make up and have on flats, I brought a pairs of wedges with me and wore it once. Here is a little idea of what to pack for 7 days in Tulum. Life on the beach is causal, most of the time you will be in your swimsuits and a little cute cover up. Everyone dressed really neat and chic in Tulum! Get your gears ready.
Stayed basic on Monday night in white corset and cream flare capri, love mixing these two colors together – fuss-free, fresh, and modern. I love flare pants lately, as you can see from my previous post. I love it when I find a good pair of pants that fit well on the body and comfortable. STYLE TIP: By wearing the same color pumps when you wear your ankle pants will help elongated your body. I love the look of ankle boots with ankle pants too, but only work for taller girls. xo Nini
I’m so happy that flare jeans are finally back in style. They’re effortlessly versatile, sexy and it does make your legs look really long. I normally hem them touch the floor and wear some big platform heels with it.
I was looking for a vintage ivory trench coat for fall and found the perfect one on Etsy, love the gold details on the shoulders too. I have a big love for vintage! I think they’re unique, and pricing is good too! I paid under $100 for this coat. When you search, just make sure the fabric content is 100% wool, or wool blend with cashmere.
Out to brunch last week, with vintage fedora, vintage coat ( love this ), vintage Christian Lacroix earrings from Paris flea market, vintage croc bag, and Rochas booties ( good one here and here ) have a good weekend everyone! xo Nini
