What to Wear for the Holidays

I had the pleasure of writing a guest post for Cocktails and Conversation on what to wear for the holidays. Check out an excerpt below:

The holidays are here and women are contemplating on what to wear this year. However the question most women ponder over is what do I wear? For some this is an easy question, but for most women the decision on what to wear is a complete nightmare. It is important to have a general idea of what you would like to wear. First, check your invites so you are aware of the dress code. It would be a tragedy to show up to an event that is formal and you are dressed semi-formal. When deciding what to wear it is important that you know the difference with what you can wear to a work holiday party versus a night out with friends..... (read full article here)

Sassy Stylish Shoe: Versace

Versace's ultra fabulous suede and leather calf boots (was priced at $1,395 but is on sale for $418.50). The black and white allows you to be extremely versatile in whatever you choose to wear. This dress would look great paired with a an LBD, a bandage dress or mini skirt. The peeptoe and striped sole give the Versace boot an added flare. They can be purchased on net-a-porter.com Thoughts Lovies?

2011 Holiday Gift Ideas

I will be on a 10 day vacation as of this Friday. I probably will not be updating the blog during this time. I will be spending time with my loved ones, get some much needed "me" time in and working on my brand (I do not understand how to truly vacay). Before I leave you Lovies I wanted to share with you some fab fashionable holiday gifts to give or purchase for yourself. I hope all of you have an amazing yet safe holiday. Stay Stylish.......Smooches xoxoxoxo -Fatima Tan'ia

FATionista's at LARGE: Item of the Week

During my latest shopping spree also known as Cyber Monday I found the perfect red jeans by @Eloquii. Besides red being one of the most sought after colors forecast for Winter these pants fit like a glove (and have 1% spandex for a little forgiveness). The most important factors when buying jeans are the fit and the comfortableness. If you for whatever reason are not familiar as of yet with Eloquii check out their site (Eloquii.com) for other great finds.

Trend Alert: Winter White

This season many designers decided to break the rules. One Fashion directive that has been instilled in every girl or women is you cannot wear white after Labor Day. This year there was no such thing on the runway. In order to make sure you are wearing your winter white as fab as possible here are a few wardrobe ideas to consider:

Go for a deeper, creamy, or bluish white
Use the proper fabric (flannel, wool or a thicker cotton vs. linen which is for summer months)
Nudes are the most obvious color to pair when wearing white but to spice up your outfit opt for color
Dare to wear white to a semi-formal or formal event
Do not be afraid of a white pants suit
