I hope you are all doing well. This week has been chaotic because we’re so busy with our home improvement project. We’re in the process of redecorating the house, putting flowers in my atrium and into the back yard. I feel like I’m constantly running back and forth between Home Depot and home. But on the bright side, the project is coming together really well and I can’t wait to share photos when it is all finished.
Since I’ve been so busy, I’ve been keeping it basic in terms of outfits. I’m wearing my all time favorite black skinny jeans. I love them because they’ve got the perfect amount of stretch but also have enough structure to create a great shape. And they hold up pretty well against wear-and-tear so I can rely on them during my busy times. This is the ‘it’ jean that I suggest to all my clients. It’s just a great basic to have so I’m always stocked up with a few pairs. Enjoy your Sunday and thanks for reading my blog xoxo Nini
While shopping for furniture I couldn’t help but make a quick stop at American Apparel. The last thing I purchased at American Apparel was a T shirt and that was years ago. Walking into the store this time around, I was pleasantly surprised by how different the selection was compared to my last visit. I was happy to find that they are improving on quality and selling more wearable items. I picked up this white poplin shirt and white high-waisted denim skirt along with some other things that I’ll share soon on the blog.
One of my beautiful clients gave me a bottle of Cornflower by Frederic Malle for my birthday and I have been using it non-stop. I’ve been getting tons of compliments about it! I’m not a perfume type of girl but I’m really enjoying this scent. It’s just very fresh. Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day! xo Nini
Sometimes you have to take advantage of the warm weather to go outside and other times, warm weather days are perfect for a little introspection and reordering. I originally began a short, four day summer cleanse but it has turned into a full-fledged home renovation project now. We’re in the process of freshening things up in the house and it feels good! We’re repainting all the walls, windows and kitchen cabinets to white. We’re also making some changes in the furniture: upgrading and add some pieces.
These photos definitely inspired me. While browsing the blogesphere for images, I found two great websites for home: desire to inspire and La Dolce Vita. Both sites are amazing for interior design inspiration. Also, I have been obsessed with Cupcakes and Cashmere. The writer, Emily Schuman, has a way of both creating and curating wonderful things. I’m a huge fan of her personal style and I love that her personal style doesn’t just stop at fashion…she creates great interiors and treats. She shares many great recipes on baking and her cupcakes are adorable! Be sure to check her out. Thanks for reading and I hope you all have a wonderful day!! xo Nini
Hello everyone, I’ve always loved a great pair of wide legged ivory pants. I don’t wear them often because it requires a pair of statement heels or heels with significant height but I do wear them on special occasions such as a lady’s luncheon. What a sleek way to show up for a meeting or a luncheon in style!
When you show up at any meeting or lady’s luncheon the last things you could possibly need are body hugging dresses, shorts or T’s. All of those are way too casual or too revealing. I stay away from anything that’s too revealing. You want to look sophisticated and elegant.
For summer weather, a pair of classic wide legged pants with a fitted peplum top is suitable and for fall you can always top the outfit off with a structured jacket if needed. It’s a classic look but it also shows off your curves in a subtle way.
This look works well for those who have a small or large chest because the waist line of the pants will show off your curves nicely. As I mentioned, be sure to wear big heels with this look so that whatever you wear on top doesn’t make you look boxy. Heels are key for wide-leg pants so that the pants help to elongate your figure. Have a lovely day everyone! and visit NINI SHOP to find out my latest picks xo Nini
On most of the photos I had the top zipped half way up.

My precious jewelry designer friend, Sue Gragg designed the nini necklace for my Birthday. It’s such a special piece.
