Few weeks ago...

It was a beautiful Sunday, hot, sunny, and my boys had theirs friend party to go. The family is Portuguese/American, and my friend (mother of b-day girl) always mix the party with delicious sweets we make in Brazil and liittle appetizers like "coxinha" that kids love (me 2!).

OOTD:

Love this necklace, and I think it came out nice with the lace top.

This lace top is from Hollister, very cute especially the sleeves and bottom, but is short so I'm wearing same color cami by Express.

Here is my friend's cute dog, craving my food "coxinha"...poor thing ;-)

Kids got lucky with so many girls around to play ;-)

Have you all a great day!

Liberty + Denin Boyshirt goes to ihop!

Last Saturday we had a great time going out for brunch on a place we don't go since kiddos were babies!

The international house of pancakes - ihop.

Now they have a delicious Simple n' fit menu, 
with sugar free syrup and egg substitute!

Just delightful !

For my boys were like their first time, 

and they felt in Heaven :-)

We also manage to go to a huge Asian supermarket,
 and we enjoyed a few hours there ( crazy busy!) choosing fishes (first time I saw how they kill the fish, and I felt so bad for the Tilapias and Stone crabs we bought),

here they are still alive...

taste so good after cooked in salted/seasoned boiled water!
 We also got some shrimp, scallops + fruits that we never taste before!

- Dragon fruit -

Got me some coffee & coconut candy - LOVE them!
Such adventure!
But everybody had fun and we enjoyed dinner a lot!

Pink rice, salad, shark
+corn and crabs!

And last but not least,
My OOTD:

First choice was the gold bag,

but didn't have time to switch - took pictures for you!

Left the house with the navy bag :o)

Handbag, Pants~watch for daily pop-backs~, shoes and jewelry - J.Crew/ Denim boy shirt - Madewell.

Have a lovely day!

red obsession

I'm in a hunt for a nice flats in red color for a while,

I found this:

Sued loafers - Gap
Very comfy and sport look,
but I still need another red flats,
like all year around, 
and I don't think this loafer fits that purpose,
also not sure it will last long :P

 I decided to check on these:

Classic leather ballet flats,
color poppy,$98.00 - $59.99 in store,
and:

Jayne T-strap ballet flats,

color vibrant flame,

$99.99 - $79.99 in-store

First I got so excited to find it in store for a lower price,

but so disappointed with the chain :(

I'm wearing my regular size 8 in both shoes,

and the chain doesn't stay in place no matter how tight I make it to my ankle.

Sad, 

I really like this flats, and I want the chain stay straight as I have seen on others,

 as on Tweed and Toile that looks so pretty!

Also the SA also said that it doesn't look right so, 

she suggest a smaller size (I felt extra room on size 8, but nothing that bothers me)and brought me size 7.

7 fits too right to my taste (I mean it will kill me later for sure!),

and she finally found the last 7 1/2:

It feels perfect!

Much better right?

The Jayne in vibrant flame is a red color to the orange side,

and the Ballet flats in poppy color is more to cherry side.

Well everyone choose for the Jayne T-strap against the classic ballet flats in the store,

 so I took it with me :o)

I'm just scare to buy any shoes smaller than my normal size (but I wear 7 1/2 of Kenneth Cole shoes),

but there were no way to get it in my normal size,

hope I don't regret!

(still thinking about the ballet flats as another casual option!)

Next is about this pants in polka dots you are seen on the pictures:

 Toothpick in navy polka dots - not online yet,

$135,

funny is that I'm wearing a size 27 (my regular size in all pants, except lately in toothpicks),

 love this pants! Hate the price!
I've tried the one from Anthropologie with no luck,
this one is very comfortable!
Cece leather ballet flats in neon azalea,
$99 in store.
Perfect shirt in Ivory plaid - $88
I'm wearing size 8 that I found on fitting room,
 and it is tight!
 Yes, you heard, its very fitted,
and I wouldn't mind to take a size 10 :P
Here is the Valentina pumps in rooftop red I just got this week:

I thought this is the perfect red for the black plaid pants!

what do you think?!
I believe it goes well with many of my stuff:

And this is what I've seen in the city:

Christmas tree almost read at Rockefeller Center

(Jcrew is right there on the right)

I don't know where this people came from... 

 Macy's at Harold Square

Finally some coffee :o)
Also I have a new parfum in my closet,

so soft and delicious! 

Isn't cute this bottle? 

And last but not least, OOTD:

I could not find my pearl long necklace,

so I add this one last minute.

head to toe - Jcrew. 

Have a wonderful day!
