TWO-TONE

Curvy Girl Chic Plus Size Fashion Blog Outfit Talbot's Camel Coat and Printed Boyfriend Jeans
Hey guys!! I hope you all had a fabulous holiday and are looking forward to counting down to 2014! I already blogged what I'll be wearing tonight but I wanted to finish off the year with one of my favorite looks to date!

[ :: Fossil leopard crossbody :: Go Go Phillip earrings :: Mossimo heels (similar from Calvin Klein) :: ]

 I've been on the hunt for a great camel coat and this beauty from Talbot's fit the bill perfectly! The boxy cut and two-tone design strike the perfect balance between on-trend and classic. With a silky blouse, printed boyfriend jeans, and printed pumps, this outfit was perfect for a weekend brunch, just hanging out with friends and family and recovering from the Christmas madness.

I hope you all have a fun (and safe!) New Year's Eve, and I'll see you in 2014! :D

I finally received the jacket I designed in conjunction with MYNT1792 for their Blogger Collection and I couldn't wait to style it with pieces in my closet! Love the way that the gold thread in the skirt picks up the gold hardware on the jacket, boots bag!

Plus Size Holiday Outfit Idea - What to Wear to a New Years Eve Party

Curvy Girl Chic Plus Size Fashion Blog Isabel Marant pour H&M Jacket and Simply Be Skirt
The look you choose to count down in is always fun one to put together! I think it represents how people feel about the new year--you get a clean slate, and it feels like the possibilities are endless!

For obvious reasons, I love wearing something super sparkly and decided to go a little edgier with this asymmetric, zip-up faux-wrap skirt from Simply Be! How sweet is that zipper detail? I'm also seriously in love with the print! Since it's bound to be chilly, this shimmery lurex bomber from the Isabel Marant pour H&M collaboration fit the bill perfectly. I love that it's practical and festive. I can't wait to bust this look out on December 31st!

Plus Size Holiday Outfit Idea - What to Wear for Home Sweet Home

Curvy Girl Chic Plus Size Fashion Blog Isabel Marant pour H&M Yosemite Sweater and Leather Pants
Since I already shared what I wore to our company holiday party, I figured it would be fun to share with you guys what I plan on wearing the most this season, so over the next few days I'll be sharing my looks by occasion. A little different than what I usually do, but I hope you enjoy it! :)

Whether it's opening presents on Christmas morning, playing board games with family (mah jong in my family's case!), or just hanging out after some serious shopping, time spent at home is my favorite part of the holidays. While I'm all for wearing pajamas all day, sometimes your loungewear calls for a little more polish!

I'm wearing what my boyfriend kindly refers to as the ugliest sweater ever and I absolutely love it! I've always been a fan of grandpa sweaters, so this shaggy concoction was at the top of my list when the Isabel Marant pour H&M lookbook was leaked. While it's far from the only piece I purchased, it might just be my favorite! ;) I'll definitely be wearing this during "family time" during holidays at the Teng house, aka super intense and competitive mahjong marathon time. Woohoo!

P.S. Like my living room? It's far from finished but it's been so much fun being able to decorate! I can't wait until the custom window coverings I ordered come in! :D

MYNT1792 Blogger Collection Video Release!

Woohoo! Just in time for the holidays, the MYNT1792 Blogger Collection jackets have shipped out to those of you who pre-ordered! If you haven't yet, you can pick one up at MYNT1792 here. :)

For a little extra fun, MYNT1792 shot a behind-the-scenes video about the collection. Check it out below for clips from the launch party, as well as interviews about our design inspiration! (Don't mind me and my awkward rambling, lol.)



P.S. I may be seriously biased, but how amazing does MaggieB look in the Allison Zip Up Trench?! So insanely cool seeing someone else in my design. If you ordered the jacket, please snap a pic and tag me on twitter, facebook, or instagram so I can share with everyone! I would love to see it on you guys! :D
