Whitening your Teeth at Home with Smile Brilliant

Whitening your teeth at the dentist office can be very expensive. However, there are other great options to professionally whiten your teeth on a budget and without leaving your home. That’s why Smile Brilliant is here for you. Now you can whiten your teeth at home with a custom tray that fits your teeth. Amazing, right?! Here’s how this all works…

Smile Brilliant sends a box with your kit and step by step instructions on how to start the process. To start, you mix the blue and white paste from both of the provided containers. After you mix them well, you insert the combined paste into the dental trays. After the mixture has been spread in one of the trays, insert into your upper, then lower teeth to take your impressions. I would suggest doing one tray at the time because the mixture drys very fast. When both of your impressions are dry, it’s time to send them back to Smile Brilliant with the provided pre-paid envelope.

How to whiten your teeth:

  1. To start, brush your teeth with water. The toothpaste acts as a barrier, which slows the process down.
  2. Apply an even amount of whitening gel in the front part of the trays and insert them into your mouth. I started by wearing the trays for 45 minutes because I didn’t know how my teeth would react with the gel. I increased the time after I notice that my teeth felt fine and weren’t sensitive. Whiten your teeth for 1-3 hours. Read more about tooth sensitivity here.
  3. Brush your teeth with toothpaste after whitening.
  4. Apply desensitizing gel into the trays and wear it for 15-30 minutes to minimize sensitivity. Remove tray and any gel excess.
  5. Smile Brilliant recommends whitening teeth before bed so the desensitizing gel has time to absorb into teeth.

I am really happy with the results of using Smile Brilliant. I noticed a difference in my teeth after the first application. They do say that for max results you should do the process about 14 times. In my opinion, one of the best things about Smile Brilliant is the fact that they make custom fit trays (read more about it here) allowing the gel to spread evenly on your teeth. Another thing I would like to add is that every teeth is different. Some people have natural pearly white teeth and some people don’t. Each result will be different but your teeth will whiten, that’s for sure!

If you are looking to get snow-white teeth I hope you try Smile Brilliant. You can get 5% off by using my special code: COLORMESASSY. Let me know what you guys think and comment bellow.

Black and Dressy

This week I’m breaking up my usual outfits (cozy and casual) for a black and dressy one. It’s nice to change up things a little and this boat neck split sleeve from Dezzal came at the perfect time. Incredibly adorable and romantic, this top is perfect to wear on a night out with friends or date night. The split sleeves on this top add charm to the top.  Since I’m usually wearing jeans, I decided I wanted to pair this top with a wool skirt. This top can also be worn with a pair of jeans or dress pants and heels.To break it up the total black look I decided to wear this statement necklace I got from Zara a few years ago.

Purchase this Dezzal Top HERE.

Thank you guys for stopping by!

Creative Way to Wear a Button Down Shirt

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

off_shoulder_resized off_shoulder-1-7_resized off_shoulder_2resized off_shoulder-1-4_resized

Hi loves,

I couldn’t wait to share this look with you. I have a long button down shirt that I rarely use and I was trying to think of a creative way to wear it last weekend. Wearing this shirt alone makes it looks like I am wearing a dress but, not in a good way, ha. I decided to pull out a plaid shirt out of my closet and just wrap it around my waist. This small accent goes a long way and adds balance to the whole outfit. I loved the way it turned out: fun and edgy. It is nice to wear something unexpected and different one in a while. Sometimes you have to be creative and just pair pieces together that you normally wouldn’t.

Have a wonderful week!

Choker Trend

Happy Monday loves! How was everybody’s Halloween weekend? We didn’t do much around here. My son just got over being sick so we just had a relaxed weekend. I did have a productive day on Saturday, I took some awesome photos for the blog and I can’t wait to show you over the next week. Today, I do want to talk about the “choker trend”. I’ve been working up the courage to wear chokers again. I remember I used to wear them when I was in High School. Back then the chokers we had weren’t as cool as the ones we see right now, but I certainly wore it every day to school, haha. Chokers may look a little intimidating at first and you just have to wear it a few times to get used to them.

I think there are a great variety of chokers that you can wear with almost any outfit. You just have to decide which one fits more your style and what occasion you would wear it.

This black velvet choker gives me a “rock” vibe, that’s why I chose to wear a black pair jeans and jacket. This choker is super affordable (only $12) and it’s from Ilymix.com. They have many other chokers to choose from: gold, silver, wrap choker. You can use my code colormesassy20 for 20% off of your order at ILYMIX.com plus free shipping!! Awesome deal, right! Get yours now!

Have a wonderful week, loves!

How to Wear a Blanket Scarf

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

new-1-2
new-1-3
new-1-5
new-1-4
new-1-6

I love to wear oversized scarfs this time of the year. They are not only cozy and beautiful but they keep you warm in the coldest temperatures. A blanket scarf is a longer (oversized) scarf that you can wear it in a variety of ways. When I wear a blanket scarf, I fold the scarf in half to create a triangle, then I wrap it around my neck to form a triangle in front. This is a simple and classic way to wear this kind of scarf and also my personal favorite. The other way I like to wear this is like a shawl. You literally don’t have to do much, all you do is throw it over your shoulders as if you were wearing a blanket. Depending on the size of the scarf, you can fold it in half first, then you throw it over your shoulders. I think that some of the reasons why blanket scarves are so popular are because of its versatility, warmth, and beauty. When you wear long sleeves, sweaters, and jackets in the cold months, there are not many accessories you can wear that will highlight your outfit. However, scarfs will.

This plaid scarf that I am wearing is from Ilymix. This scarf is super cozy and soft. Ilymix has a lot of other options for scarves and they are very reasonable.

If you love scarves or is dying to get a new one, Ilymix has a lot of options for blanket scarves. They are only $22.90 and the shipping is free. You can use my code colormesassy20 for 20% off of your order! Check out their website for some other awesome accessories. Ilymix also sell sunglasses, chokers, scarves, bracelets and more!

Have a great week, loves!

Q&A: All your questions answered

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

Hi guys, it’s Q&A time! Thank you so much for submitting your questions about me and my blog. I was really excited to put some time and heart into answering them.  Y’all came out with some really good questions. Are you ready for this? Here we go…

  1. What made you decide to start a fashion blog? How long ago did you start?

Four years ago, I accidently entered a Brazilian blogger’s website. I didn’t know a thing about blogs not even what a fashion blogger was. What this blogger was doing really moved me and kept me interested for months. I remember one afternoon, I spent hours studying and reading her blog. I was fascinated by what she was doing: showing #ootds, introducing new products, talking about new fashion trends. I got so hooked that I started to dig deeper and look into other fashion blogs. Not too long after, I thought to myself: “it would be amazing to create my own blog and share the things I love with other people.” That’s when I decided to create Color Me Sassy, on September of 2013. I must say though, it started out great! My first month I got one thousand views on my blog and I was supper pumped. Unfortunately, I got very busy with school and work and didn’t have much time to create new content for my blog. That discouraged me and made me question if I was good enough to keep pursuing Color Me Sassy. Before diving back into my blog head first, I had to silence my own fears and renew my self-confidence. I will never regret the decision to keep moving forward and I don’t plan on stopping.

  1. What’s one of your favorite things about blogging?

As a blogger, I really enjoy having the creative freedom to post whatever I want, whenever I want. I enjoy being able to work with brands that I’m passionate about, but most importantly, I enjoy connecting with my readers and other bloggers. It’s funny because in this digital world, we make friends with people across the world that we may not even meet in person one day…this is fascinating to me.

  1. What got you interested or started in fashion?

I always had a passion for fashion but never had done anything about it. In Brazil I graduated in Hospitality (Hotel Management) and never pursued a career in that field. When I was living in the U.S. I decided I wanted to be more involved in the fashion industry and that’s when I went to school for Fashion Merchandising. I guess the uniqueness in the Brazilian fashion world is what always enchanted me and made me love fashion.

  1. What has been your greatest challenge when it comes to blogging?

In life, there will always be a challenge to overcome, we just have to go through it. I think the biggest one right now is that if I have to take photos, I have to wait till the weekend to do that. My hubby takes photos for me and we can only do that on the weekend. Sometimes when we are busy and don’t have time to shoot photos, I get very frustrated.

  1. What kind of camera and lens do you use?

I use a Canon Rebel T1i and I recently started to use the EF 55mm 1:1.8 lens. The EF 55mm is pretty affordable compared to other lens. This is the type of lens that most bloggers use because it creates that cool blurred background that we all like.

  1. What’s your favorite Instagram filter?

I often use Color Story app. I use the Fresh filter and under that filter I use Snow. This filter helps make my photos look brighter. Additionally, I tend to lower all of the shadows in my photos, which helps to maintain consistent black levels.

  1. What do you use for photo editing?

I’m in the process of learning how to use Adobe Light Room to edit photos. Currently, I use Photoshop or Color Story, if I take a photo with my Iphone. So far, I’m really impressed with the control that you get with Lightroom.

  1. I would love to know the one thing you can’t live without?

Besides my family and my dog, some of the top things I can’t live without are coffee and sweets (ice cream and cake especially).

  1. What is your favorite dry shampoo?

I haven’t tried many dry shampoos yet because I don’t use them that often but, the one I have at home and I like it is from Tresemme.

  1. What’s your favorite skincare product?

I don’t have a favorite skincare product but here are a few of my favorites:

Face Mask: Derma9 Zone Mask System

Moisturizer: Clinique

Exfoliation: St, Ives.

Here are some of my favorite makeup products:

Eyeliner: NYX in dark brown

Lipstick: Relentless Red Matte from MAC

Mascara: Roller Lash by Benefit

  1. What’s your favorite brand?

I think it’s impossible to choose one favorite brand but here are some of my favorites:

  • I used to work at Ann Taylor Loft so I own a lot of jeans from them. I usually go there for jeans or Nordstrom’s because of the large variety of brands to choose from.
  • I absolutely love to shop at Zara for anything. That’s a fast fashion store so they always have current fashion trends.
  • Other cool stores: Madewell, Lulus, Shop Tobi and Swirl Boutique.
  • I also love to shop for purses at Fossil. They make high quality handbags that last long.
  • If I were in Brazil (my birth country) I would spend all my money at Farm Rio. At Farm Rio they have the most amazing patterns and everything is colorful. The brand really brings up the lively culture of Brazil.
  1. What is your biggest insecurity as a woman?

As a woman, I want to be a good wife to my husband and even a better mom to my son. I want to make them proud of who I am and what I’ve done. My biggest fear is to disappoint either of them. I don’t want that to ever happen.

  1. If money weren’t an object what would your perfect day be like?

The perfect day for me would be spent on the beach with my family in Brazil, enjoying the sun, playing games, and swimming in the ocean. I would probably have a “Caipirinha” in my hands too (famous Brazilian drink).

  1. How is it like to be living in a foreign country? Is fashion the same in both countries?

You go through many struggles when you move to a foreign country, you try to learn a new language, make new friends, learn how to get around in a new city, and you are far away from your family. I could write a book talking about this, ha. However, now that I’ve been here in the U.S for 8 years, I can say that I don’t have those struggles anymore. Now that I’m married and have one child, everything is so much different. I created roots here and I am used to the American life.

  1. What’s your go to outfit?

I am such a carefree person, I like to dress up for an event, but usually I go for a nice pair of jeans and a t-shirt. That’s my go to outfit. I can wear it anywhere.

  1. What are your must have beauty products for an everyday effortless look?

I don’t wear a lot of makeup but, for a simple everyday wear, I like to wear a little bit of eyeliner, and a light pink lipstick.

  1. Who is your favorite blogger?

There are several bloggers that I love and admire. Some of them are Sincerely Jules, Collage Vintage, Camila Coelho, Camila Coutinho and Aimee Yong. These are just a few of the bloggers I love.

  1. Where do you shop most for great deals and bargains?

A great website for bargains is SheIn. They sell everything at wholesale price. It can take up to a month to receive the merchandise so buy it in advance if you need something for a special occasion. I am always in the look out for great deals. I look for store sales and I check my e-mails often for them.

I hope you enjoyed reading this special post. Let me know if you want me to do another Q&A in the future!

Probiotics One: for a healthier body

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

After a weekend of eating unhealthy, I like to go through a quick detox to get back on track. I started to take Probiotics One to help my digestive system. If I want to keep a healthy body, but still eat that delicious burger once in awhile, it’s important for me to keep my digestive system working well. One important benefit of probiotics is that it improves the absorption of nutrients from foods we eat. It also supports our immune system so we don’t get sick. With my busy life of being a mom, I can’t afford to get sick, so it’s important to me to do my best to not get sick and stay healthy for my son. Besides eating healthy, and exercising regularly, I take Probiotics One which is gluten free and 100% vegan. Are you taking anything to be and stay healthy? Let me know in the comments below.

*This is my own experience so please consult your doctor before using probiotics.

Depois de um final de semana de comilança, eu gosto de detoxicar o corpo e voltar à rotina de uma alimentação saudável. Eu comecei a tomar probiótico (Probiotics One) para ajudar com o meu sistema digestivo. Se eu quero manter o meu corpo saudável, e ainda comer um hambúrguer de vez em quando, é importante para mim que o meu sistema digestivo funcione bem. Um benefício importante do uso de probióticos é que ele ajuda na absorção máxima de nutrientes dos alimentos que a gente consume. Ele também ajuda com o sistema imunológico para que a gente não fique doente. Com a minha vida agitada de mãe, é importante que eu esteja sempre saudável para o meu filho. Além de uma alimentação boa e saudável e a prática de atividade física, eu também tomo Probiotics One que ajuda na saúde do meu corpo. Probiotics One is glúten e 100% vegan. O que você faz para se manter saudável?

*Esse é a minha experiência própria. Por favor consulte o seu médico antes de tomar probióticos.

Derma9 Zone Mask System Review + Coupon

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

Hi guys, I am really excited about today’s post. I love skincare products, especially the ones that actually work and make your skin look fabulous! I partnered with Derma9 to review and test their Zone Mask System, and I have to tell ya…it’s a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

Derma9 came up with this great new concept of a making not only 1 mask, but 3, for the different areas of your face. The three areas are: T-zone: forehead, nose and chin; S-zone: cheeks; and Eye-zone: below eyes. If you feel your face you will notice that each area has a different texture and thickness. The Zone Mask System have different components in each mask targeting those specific areas for better results. I tried the mask and my face felt clean, smooth and hydrated. For long lasting results I’m going to use this product once a week.

Quem não gosta de um produto de beleza que funciona e deixa a sua pele maravilhosa? Lançou aqui nos Estados Unidos uma máscara bafo da Derma9 chamada Zone Mask System. Mas o que essa máscara tem de tão especial? Ao invés de uma máscara para o rosto inteiro, a Derma9 criou 3 máscaras para áreas diferentes do rosto: zona T: testa, nariz, e queixo; zona S: bochechas; e zona dos olhos. Cada máscara contém ingredientes diferentes focando em áreas específicas do rosto para melhores resultados. Eu senti a minha pele macia, limpa, e hidratada após o uso do produto.

Below are the different types of the zone masks, ingredients, and specific benefits. By the way, the masks are not sold separately. It’s a kit that comes with all three masks.

Abaixo há os diferentes tipos da máscara, os ingredientes, e os seus benefícios. Aliás, as máscaras não são vendidas separadamente. É um kit que vem com as 3 máscaras. 

T-Zone: forehead, nose, and chin. One of the ingredients of this mask is bamboo charcoal, which helps to flush out clogged pores.

Zona-T: testa, nariz, e queixo. Um dos ingredientes dessa máscara é carvão de bambu, que ajuda a limpar poros entupidos.

S-Zone: Cheek area. The S-Zone mask is composed with ingredients such as açaí and algacell. Those ingredients help reduce the appearance of inflammation and skin blemishes.

Zona-S: Área das bochechas. A máscara da zona-s é composta por ingredientes como açaí e algacell. Esses ingredientes ajudam a reduzir o aparecimento de inflamação e manchas da pele.

Eye-Zone: Below eyes. One of the ingredients within the the eye-zone mask is the alpha acetyl tetrapeptide-5, which reduce the appearance of wrinkles and promotes skin elasticity. Additionally, this mask contains and vitamin k which targets dark circles and age spots.

Zona dos olhos: Abaixo dos olhos. Um dos ingredientes que compõe essa máscara é o alpha acetyl tetrapeptide-5, que reduz a aparência de pé de galinha e promove a elasticidade da pele. Em adição, a máscara também contém vitamina k que ajuda na redução de olheira e sinais de idade.

After you apply the masks, wait 15 minutes and wash off the mask.

Depois da aplicação das 3 máscaras, espere 15 minutes e lave o rosto.

How to Wear Sweatpants on the Streets

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

 

img_6103

black joggers from Loft

garage2 garage4 garage5

We’ve seen in the last 2 years how sweatpants have become a hot fashion trend. Something that was supposed to be worn at the gym or at home, now takes the streets in a whole new level. More stylish and cooler looking sweatpants (also called joggers) are perfect for when you are off-duty. They are often often snug around the ankles. Now, how can you wear sweatpants on the streets? I personally like to wear my joggers with a loose blouse and just a little bit tucked into my sweatpants. I think that’s a cool and stylish way to wear them. Another possibility is to wear a cropped top with a jacket and the sweatpants. The possibilities are endless, truly. Some of the nicer sweatpants, made with higher quality fabric, can be worn with booties and even heels (depending on the type of sweats). These joggers seen above are from LOFT. They have a big sale going on right now. I will link some of my favorites for you below.

A gente já notou que nos últimos dois anos a calça de moletom foi reinventada mudando o nosso conceito sobre ela. Uma coisa que era para ser usada na academia ou dentro de casa, agora toma as ruas num nível bem diferente. As calças de moletom, também chamadas de jogger, são mais estilosas, modernas, e finas.  As joggers são perfeitas para usar no dia-a-dia quando você está off-duty. Eu gosto de usar esse tipo de calça assim: com uma camiseta ou camisa colocada para dentro da calça. Outra possibilidade é usá-la com um cropped top e uma jaqueta por cima. As possibilidades são infinitas. As calças de moletom com tecidos melhores e mais finos, podem até serem usadas com uma botinha de cano baixo ou salto alto. A calça jogger que eu estou usando é da LOFT. A loja está com bastante liquidação. Coloquei os links abaixo com outras opções da calça.

LOFT sweatpants in grey or black.

Sincerely Jules sweatpants in grey, olive or black.

Nordstrom joggers in navy (dressy).

Zara jogging trousers in black, grey and olive. 

New Balance Sneakers

Tan Ceuticals: The Results | Before and After

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

Hi guys, if you read yesterday’s blog post you already know that I’ve partnered with Tan Ceuticals to try their self-tanning mousse. Yesterday I talked about the product, and today I am sharing the results with you. Ok, so I am BLOWN away with the results! As soon as I applied the tanning mousse I immediately saw my skin tanned! C-R-A-Z-Y! I followed the exact steps I listed yesterday. When I woke up this morning I was a little orangy, but as soon as I showered, that orangy look went away and I had a beautiful, natural, sun kissed tan. This product also has a really nice coconut scent. I am very impressed with the results and I am going to be using this product all the time from now on.

Se vocês leram o post de ontem, vocês já sabem da minha parceria com a marca de loção auto bronzeadora Tan Ceuticals. Ontem, no blog, eu contei sobre o produto e hoje eu vou mostrar o resultado. Eu fiquei boba com o resultado do meu bronzeado. Hoje de manhã a minha pele estava um pouquinho laranja, mas depois que eu tomei banho aquele alaranjado sumiu e a minha pele ficou com uma cor dourada linda! Tanto a mousse quanto a loção bronzeadora tem um cheirinho de côco muito gostoso. Juro, fiquei impressionada com esse auto bronzeador, recomendo o investimento!

In the picture below you can see the before and after results. I applied the tanning mousse only on one arm to compare the difference in color. You can definitely see that the arm on the left has a beautiful glow.

Na foto abaixo, vocês podem ver o antes e depois da aplicação do produto. Eu apliquei o auto bronzeador no braço da esquerda para comparar a diferença da cor. Como vocês podem ver, o braço esquerdo ficou com uma cor dourada linda e natural.

On the left photo below you can see the before, and the photo on the right you can see after. Notice that the photo of my arms was taken with a pro camera, and the photo of my legs was taken with my iPhone. You can clearly see the results 🙂

Na foto abaixo vocês podem ver o antes e depois. À esquerda o antes, e à direita o depois. Notem que a foto acima eu tirei com a camera profissional e abaixo eu tirei com o iPhone.

Tan Ceuticals: Self-tanning Mousse

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

Hi guys, I am so excited to share with you my experience with Tan Ceuticals! As you know, I am from Brazil and I love to get out and tan in the sun. But because our winters here in the Midwest are so darn long, I can’t keep that nice tan all year long. Plus, let’s face it, it’s not good for your skin anyways to be exposed to that much sun. So what’s the alternative? Self-tanning lotions. In this case, Tan Ceuticals! I’ve partnered with Tan Ceuticals to try their CC Self-tanning mousse. I got the face and body mousse in dark, and also the mitten to help apply the mousse more evenly.

Gente, hoje eu tenho um produto super legal para mostrar para vocês. Como vocês sabem eu moro nos Estados Unidos, o inverno aqui é muito longo e não da para tomar sol o ano inteiro. Aliás, muito sol não faz bem para pele, né! Então, qual a alternativa? Loção bronzeadora, neste caso a Tan Ceuticals. Em parceria com a Tan Ceuticals eu vou contar para vocês minha experiência com o produto e como usá-lo.

Now, let’s talk about the steps of how to apply the product. Shall we?

Vamos falar da aplicação?

  1. PREPARE YOUR SKIN. You want your skin to be clean and free of dead skin; so shower and exfoliate your skin with a sugar based-scrub. Also, you should shave any unwanted hair before applying the tanning mousse. It is recommended to shave 12-24 hours before applying the product.
    PREPARE A PELE. A pele tem que estar limpa e sem pele morta; portanto,  é recomendável tomar banho e esfoliar a pele antes de aplicar a mousse bronzeadora. Além disso, raspe todos os pelos indesejáveis e aplique a mousse depois de 12-24 horas.
  2. APPLY MOISTURIZER ON DRY PARTS OF YOUR BODY. Apply moisturizer on feet, knees and elbows. If those areas are dry, they will look darker if no moisturizer is applied.
    APLIQUE LOÇÃO HIDRATANTE NAS PARTES SECAS DO CORPO. Aplique loção hidratante nos cotovelos, pés, e joelhos. Se essas regiães do corpo estiverem secas, elas podem ficar mais escuras após a aplicação.
  3. WEAR A TANNING MITT. Protect your hand by wearing a tanning mitt for a smooth streak-free finish. However, don’t forget to apply the mousse on the top of your hand and between fingers. Do that last.
    USE LUVA. Proteja a mão usando uma luva para que ela não fique com riscos bronzeados. Não se esqueça de passar a mousse nas mãos e entre os dedos. Faça isso por último.
  4. WASH HANDS CAREFULLY. Use soap and water and wash your fingers and palms thoroughly.
    LAVE AS MÃOS COM CUIDADO. Use água e sabonete para lavar as palmas das mãos.
  5. LET IT DRY. Let the self tanner dry completely before putting on clothes.I recommend waiting between 10-15 min. It is recommended to apply the self tanner at night and put on loose clothes afterwards. In the morning you can shower and moisture to keep that sun kissed glowing skin.
    DEIXE SECAR. Deixe a pele secar totalmente antes de colocar a roupa por cima. Espere entre 10-15 minutos. É recomendado aplicar a loção bronzeadora à noite e colocar roupas arejadas e não apertadas em seguida. No dia seguinte, tome banho e hidrate a pele para aquele bronzeado lindo e dourado.

I encourage you to visit Tan Ceutical’s page for the “do’s” and “don’t’s.”

Now, I am excited to show you the results, so come back tomorrow to see the before and the after photos.

Agora, voltem amanhã para ver o resultado do bronzeado. Mostrarei o antes e depois da aplicação da mousse.

See you tomorrow,

Xoxo,

Gabrielle

The Perfect Night Out Outfit

by Gabrielle Loomis
written by Gabrielle Loomis

IMG_6010 copy

As we approach a new season, fall, the days are warm but the nights are getting cold. I like how this time of the wear I can mix and match fall pieces with summer ones. I’ve already told you guys my obsession with this top. I am trying to get a lot of use of this top before if gets too cold for bare arms. If you follow me on Instagram (@colormesassy) I’ve told you that I had a nice Monday night date with my hubby and our baby. Monday date? Yes, my hubby had to go into work all weekend so he wanted to make it up to us and took us do Louise’s in Milwaukee. Louise’s by the way, is one of our favorite restaurants in Milwaukee. It has amazing salads, pizzas, and bread! Anyways, go there if you haven’t been. Back to this look, I wanted to pair this top with my new black jeans from Levi’s. I love wearing black jeans in the fall and winter. To top it of I wore these strapped camel sandals from Zara (kinda old). This was the perfect night out outfit for a breezy Monday night.

710 Levi’s Super Skinny Jeans / Shein top (less than $20)

Now let’s talk about Rapha, ok?! He is just the light of the party. He is a social little guy who loves to talk and wave to anyone he see. lol.

I hope you are all having a great start of the week.

Thanks for stopping by,

Xoxo, Gabi
