Well, here we’re again, another day in the house. So I’ve though about picking some outfits for staying  in the house, but that will be also great for going out later this spring.

Because staying at the house the whole time can get a bit (or a lot) boring, specially for who, like my self, is completely alone. So, getting a cute and stylish outfit can definitely cheer up the mood and make the staying home alone a better moment.

 

• 4 Staying home Outfits in Style:

So let’s start with a perfect-to-be-home outfit: a loungewear set! Nothing like a good loungewear set for staying home in a very comfortable outfit, but in an elegant way. So, take notes; nothing like a black lounge wear set to be very chic and classy at home:

Simple and elegant! But the best is that if you need to go out and run some errands, you can style this black loungewear set with some jewellery, comfy flats or even (why not) a pair of comfy high heels. Since I was just relaxing home during the weekend, I didn’t wear any accessories, but accessories would make this set perfect for going out of the house or even if you need to do any video call:

I mean, how would have ever said that the Spring 2020 main trend would be loungewear? Well, that’s definitely a good time to enjoy this style of clothes! Nothing like being cosy in style at home.

 

Another option of outfit that goes very well for staying at home is getting a super cute long sleeve top and match it with a pair of lounger wear trousers. I mean, this top will also look great with a pair of jeans or even with some coloured trousers or a skirt. But, it’s also a great option for a more feminine outfit at home and it will be definitely ready to go out very soon!

 

This loungewear trousers is part of another loungewear set I showed you before here on the blog, on this Femme Luxe Finery review. And since they are pink with the white detail, it was perfect to make this cute top more casual and comfy for staying home.

 

For a more casual and relaxed look that’s perfect for the warm days, I styled a white T-shirt with a pair of shorts. And since the white t-shirt was a basic t-shirt, I made a little knot by the bottom and styled it with a necklace in different layers + a cool high bun. All together, I created a super casual, fun and cool outfit:

 

And I must say I just love this Babe T-shirt!

Style Tip: Whenever you have a basic t-shirt and you want to give it a twist, just make a little knot at the bottom of the t-shirt and you will have a totally cool style!

 

It wouldn’t be a selection of outfits made by myself if there wasn’t even a little dress on it! Of course you can wear a dress at home, but truth be told, I can’t wait to wear this spring green dress out of the house! It’s a light green silky dress that’s spring-perfect! Light in fabric and in colour.

 

This dress gives me so many spring/summer vibes! It’s perfect for a warm day or night out. My style choice was to wear it with a high bun hairstyle (perfect for the warm/hot summer days) and statement earrings + a red lipstick (because a red lipstick is always a good idea).

For the shoes, this dress works well with high heels for a more fo a dress up look, or also with a pair of flats sandals or ballerinas.

And I must say, how big was this coincidence that I was wearing a green nail polish at the same day of this green dress?! Actually green is a colour I don’t wear that often (nail polish, makeup or clothes), but I really love this dress’ colour and how it looks non my skin. 💚

The spring is finally just around the corner and if you can’t wait to wear cute spring outfits, here are 4 suggestions to help you transit from winter to spring in a cute and fun way!

For me, the change of the season is a great time to wear long sleeve dresses that are lighter and in prints that say spring get here, please!

So get inspired to plan your next outfits with a touch of spring to cheer up our days!

 

• Beginning of the Spring: 4 Outfits

My first getting into the spring outfit is this pink leopard dress with long sleeves! The pink gives this leopard print a touch of femininity and also some freshness, that make this long sleeve dress perfect to start your spring days in style! Ruched with a frill hem, it’s fashionable and super girly, just the way I like a dress!

 

I love how the pink print makes this dress even more feminine, instead of the traditional leopard colours, the perfect way to start a new spring season! And to make this look even more feminine, I styled it with some girly accessories, like a pink headband and a pink lipstick.

 

Since I can never get tired of a dress, my second choice of spring outfit is this tan coloured day dress, because I can’t wait to get tanned for the summer! 😂 And a long sleeve dress is perfect for this change of season, while it’s not warm yet, but no longer that cold.

A dress like this is perfect for the daily life, you can wear it as a casual outfit, being able to be comfortable at the same time as stylish. It’s a very versatile dress, you can wear it with a pair of high heels, flat shoes or even with a pair of boots for the transitioning outfit.

And to make this outfit more fashionable, I styled it with some jewellery made with edge wood pieces, that make this outfit super cool. And for the hair, I gave it a little touch with a half up do hairstyle, wearing a cute hair accessory to make it more dress up:

 

To follow the spring mood, I’ve picked this cute pink puff sleeve top in lace, that’s sheer and make it a perfect beginning of the spring piece to start the season in style with a very feminine outfit. I styled it with a pair of white trousers to get that spring vibe of pastel colours, that I love to wear during the sunny days or also to make any cloudy day a better day, and that’s definitely what we need now! Good outfits and good vibes!

Being home a lot lately here in Italy, it doesn’t mean you should be in pyjamas the whole day or wear only loungewear clothes, there are days I just love to dress up and cheer my mood up too. Actually, this is a great advice to have a healthy routine and get dressed as normal everyday, just to keep your vibes higher and you feeling better during these days.

 

For all the shirt lovers out there, nothing like a polka dot shirt to make your outfit more fun! And this long sleeve shirt in organza definitely brings a special touch to your outfit. You can style it in so many different ways, for example, you can wear it with a pair of trousers or even with a skirt or shorts.

For this outfit, I styled this blue organza shirt with a black leather skirt for a sexy and elegant outfit:

To bring more fun and more fashion into this outfit, I did a little half bun on my hair, that makes this look much cooler. It’s such a cool, easy and quick hairstyle to do during the day to change your look.

If you’re like me and you love to go out, be it a party, a dinner or a date night, here are 3 night out outfits to inspire you in shining through the night!

There’s no question that a black outfit is the king of the night-out-outfits, and to inspire you in choosing your next outfit, I’ve styled 3 different night out outfits in black for this season. By now, you all know how I love a shinning outfit an it doesn’t matter if it’s with sequins, glitter, metallic fabrics or metallic details, a little shine was never too much.

So let’s get this party started!

 

• 3 Night Out outfits to inspire you:

Let’s start with a little black dress, that’s not plain at all! My first night out outfit is this black velvet dress with a metallic shining touch that makes it a perfect choice as a sparkly dress. It’s a great dress for going out to the club or even for a dinner or date night when you pair it with a cosy coat.

You can check more details of this velvety dress on the photo bellow to see how shiny it actually is (I didn’t add any filter at all on the photo and no shining effect was added, it’s really how the dress shines is person):

Since this dress is more in a tight style to the body, I decided to do a soft makeup with brown shades as for the eyeshadows and a pink lipstick, to create a balance between the sexy dress + a cute makeup. Also the hairstyle I did was on the cute side as well.

This his something I love to do, mix a contrast between sexy + cute to create a different outfit.

 

If you prefer a long sleeve dress for the cold weather season, here’s a great option: a bodycon dress, but with a high neck + long sleeves with the right amount of shine! This mini dress also has some shinning metallic details that make this a sparkly dress to rock on a night out!

Add a pair of comfortable high heels and you’re ready to party all night long with this dress!

 

I LOVE dresses, but of course you don’t need a dress to style a night out outfit, you can also do it with a pair of trousers! And since shining  clothes were my inspiration for styling these 3 outfits, I’ve picked a pair of sparkle wide leg trousers for this third outfit option for going out:

Well, the wide leg trousers were definitely the highlight of this outfit because they are super shining also in person, I’d say more shinning in person that it looks like in this photo. Therefore, it’s perfect for a special occasion or as a nice dinner outfit, this outfit will guarantee that you’re dressed to impress. 😉

I was in love with this pair of trousers since the first time I tried it, because it’s so shiny that it creates a beautiful effect for your outfit.

 

Since this pair of trousers were already shinning enough, I styled them with a cropped top in black satin, the perfect touch for an elegant outfit. There was already glitter enough on this bottom part, so the top could be more neutral and basic to create harmony and balance on my outfit.

Lately I’ve been loving crop tops and even the long sleeve tops in a cropped style have been my go to style of tops this fall/winter season! It looks so beautiful and classy when you style a crop top with high waisted trousers or high-waited skirt.

 

As anything in fashion, there are many different kind of options to explore when styling a night outfit, which is the coolest thing about fashion: we can always play and enjoy many different styles and outfits!

And how do you prefer to style your night out outfits?

• Check out some videos:

The Holidays are coming and it’s time to shine! You all know how much I love “shining clothes”, sequins and glitter! So when this time of the year arrives, I’m so happy to wear a lot of glitter and sequins!

From head to toe, I love to shine and the glitter pieces are perfect for it without going “too far”. If you know how to wear glitter clothes, you can wear it even as a work outfit! So take note on my styling tips, because I’ll help you to wear the glitter garments in style!

 

• Glitter Fashion: How to wear it for every occasion

Sliver glitter top: Femme Luxe Finery | Leather Leggings: Femme Luize Finery | Wig: Dresslily | Sunglasses: Adore

If you want to wear a glitter garment during the day or even as a work outfit, you can do it! You just need to pay attention and choose the right piece for this kind of occasion!

Something like this silver long sleeve top can be very versatile and if you wear it with neutral trousers, you are very appropriate even for day outfit! The key is balance. If you choose to wear a shiny top, go basic with your trousers/skirt and accessories for a work/day outfit.

My choice was a pair of fake leather leggings and black boots, keeping the focus of my outfit at the silver glitter top! (Even though let’s say “neutral” wasn’t really my idea, since I was wearing some turquoise hair, it’s a wig).

 

For a night out, a dinner or something more special, a glitter dress is a great and trendy option to rock a shiny outfit! Like this second outfit option with a silver glitter dress that I’m loving:

Silver Glitter Dress: Femme Luxe Finery | High knee boots | Earrings: H&M

And this grey glitter dress is sparkly and completely trendy! As an one shoulder mini dress, it’s the perfect outfit for a party, a night out when you want to shine or even for a dinner out/date night, when you want to avoid the sequins.

The tie give this dress as special touch, making it a not such an usual dress, it’s perfect for when you want to stand out! And you can also play with it and tie it in different ways.

 

To me, it’s impossible to not think about red at this time of the year! With the Holidays coming, I always love to have at least a red dress for the Christmas season and since we are talking about glitter fashion, then, think about a red glitter dress! Sexy, elegant and completely in the mood of the season! That’s how this Christmas party dress is:

Red glitter dress: Femme Luxe Finery | Ring: Pietra Coralli | Earrings: Morana

This red glitter halter neck midi dress is perfect for this season! Weather you will be spending the holidays in the cold winter (pair it with a cosy fake fur jacket) of even if you’re going to a summer paradise (like myself this year)! I’ll be spending the Holidays in Brazil this season, running away from the cold winter days in Europe this time. And I’ll be sure to pack this lovely dress with me!

 

How not to love this time of the year? Glitter everywhere! 😍

 

If you want just a little touch of glitter and shine, you can go with a basic outfit and add some shiny accessories! Belts, bags or shoes are a great way to dress up your outfit and make it shinier. So here’s how to do it with a black jumper dress:

Black jumper dress: Femme Luxe Finery | Belt: Lafort | Bag: Animale

Something that I love about the fall and winter season: jumpers! I love how cosy and warm they can be and there’s nothing easier than to wear a jumper dress. You can wear it with a pair of tights and you’re ready to go!

A jumper dress is a must have for the cold days and the softer the fabric, the cosier it gets. That’s what I’ve been loving about this black jumper dress from Femme Luxe Finery, it’s so soft and cosy that you want to wear it all the time!

Fall is just around the corner, so I’ve styled 3 casual fall outfits to inspire your new season. They are very easy to wear and super casual outfits, in a simple way but with a touch of style that you can wear during the fall days (or nights).
With crop tops, a pair of flare jeans and a shirt dress, get inspired to style your own fall outfits with pieces that are perfect for the season’s days (and nights), when it’s not too warm, neither too cold yet.
The new season is also a perfect time to add new trends to your wardrobe or to enjoy even more the ones you’ve been loving the whole summer and that will continue to be trendy during the fall too.
 

• 3 Casual fall outfits to wear now:

For going through the change of seasons, I’m loving this style of off shoulder crop top! It gets the off shoulder trend straight from the summer (a trend that I just LOVE!), but in a crochet top with long sleeves, so you have it cosy enough for the fall.
The see-through fabric also plays a part at this end of the summer outfit, when you’re not ready to get into the winter season yet and you already miss the summer outfits.
Well, let’s get ready to enjoy the fall outfits again! I love a cosy cute outfit for the season.
 

I’ve been wearing so many colourful outfits during this summer, that I kind of missed a total black outfit, so here it is, just in time for the fall season! And let’s face it, a total black outfit is always an elegant look.
 
I’m pretty sure you will notice I really liked that crop top from the outfit above, since you will notice I’ve picked a very similar style in white as well! Well, what can I do? When in doubt of which colour to choose, just get them all. (lol)
The difference is that this white crop top is knitted, while the black one above was in crochet. By the way, there are both from a website called Femme Luxe, where you will find a lot of trendy and fashionable clothes for affordable prices (you can also know more about this website on my Femme Luxe review here).

For this casual fall outfit, I styled this white crop top with a pair of high-waisted flare jeans, to keep it very casual. Perfect outfit for a day out in the town or even for running errands in a stylish way. Because we all love a stylish-outfit, no matter the occasion, right?
• Styling tip: High-waisted pants are a great match for crop tops, specially during the fall season, because they are classy and it can also cover more of your belly, so not much skin exposed to the fresh air of the season. •
 

Crop top and jeans are from Femme Luxe | Earrings are from Monili di Legno | Sunglasses by Adore World | Bag by Oeyes
 
Last, but not least, you all know how much I love a dress! So the third inspiration for casual fall outfits definitely had to be with a dress! And here it is: a chain print shirt dress with black as the print background that I thought it was perfect for the fall:
 

Dress: Femme Luxe | Rings and necklace: Pesavento
The chain print is almost a classic, it comes and goes all the time, so having a piece of clothing in this print is always useful! And when you choose it in black, it’s even better because it instantly becomes more elegant and timeless. 
And just to make it even more fall-perfect, I styled this dress with a black floppy hat to add even more style to this outfit, who doesn’t love a cute floppy hat? It’s also the perfect accessory for the fall/winter season, since it’s super cute, cosy and warm.
 

 
So now you have it, 3 new casual fall outfits to inspire you into this new season.
Which of the 3 casual fall outfits that I styled was your favourite one?

A pair of black leather pants or leggings is always a good acquisition for your wardrobe, because you can wear and style it in so many different ways!
You can either go for a casual and cool look, for a more sexy outfit or even create a contrast between cute and sexy! Like I did with this outfit:

photo: olucasp

With black eco leather leggings and a cute pink and black & white top, I paired this outfit with a pair of black patent leather high heels to complete my look! I love to play with a sexy piece + a cute one, creating a contrast between the two, but also a balance on my outfit.
 
We photographed this outfit here in Milan on a very unusual fresh summer day, if you’ve been following me on Instagram (if not, just check @manuluize for fashion, beauty and travel tips and videos straight from Milan in Italy), you will know the summer can be very hot here! So, I’m always very happy when it’s fresher, so I can enjoy a pair of pants or long skirts once in a while.

photo: olucasp

 
This outfit is actually very mid-season as well, because a pair of black leather pants goes well on fresh spring days or it’s even perfect for some warm days during the fall season!
And a pair of leggings like this will be perfect for styling many different outfits during the different seasons. Something that I really liked about this pair of leggings is that the fabric isn’t see-through, so you can even wear it with a cropped top without having to worry about anything, like I did here:

photo: olucasp

 
I’ve been waiting a pair of black leather pants and I believe that as soon as the weather allows here in Milan, I’ll be wearing a lot this pair of leggings!

I always liked how jumpsuits for women looked, all so elegant! But I actually have no idea how, until recently, I didn’t own any long jumpsuits! No idea how that happened, but, well, problem is solved now, since I was really in the mood for some jumpsuits, so I’ve just got 3 of them at once (well, I had to compensate for all those years, right?).
And I must add that I’m LOVING wearing them! I love the elegant vibe the jumpsuits give and I’ve just chosen some models from a website called Femme Luxe and I’m loving them!
So get ready to be inspired with 3 different jumpsuits for women outfits that I worn recently here in Milan:

 

• Jumpsuits for women: 3 outfits to inspire YOU

The first jumpsuit that I chose was this asymmetric one with a long sleeve, it’s very elegant, but being asymmetric, it definitely has a fashion vibe to it. I went for an elegant outfit, pairing this black jumpsuit with black patent leather high heels and a black and gold belt.

Since this jumpsuit is an one-shoulder jumpsuit, I went for big and bold earrings to match the look I was going for.
Ordering online for the first time in a new website is not knowing how the fabric will turn out to be, right? Happily, I’ve been enjoying all my jumpsuits’ quality, they are all well made, the fabric is soft and it feels just like I was expecting them all to be.
 

When we think about jumpsuits for women, we have a lot of options and different models to choose from! With long sleeve, sleeveless, strapless, in a solid color or printed, cute, cool or sexy! The options of outfits with jumpsuits are really endless, making it possible to wear a different one whenever you’re in the mood for a different style.
 
Well, if you’re in the mood for something sexy, this strapless jumpsuit can definitely be a great choice, like I did on my second outfit!

It’s a black sweetheart neck jumpsuit, that feels so comfortable to wear, but it’s kind of sexy at the same time.
To make it a femme fatale outfit, just pair this strapless jumpsuit with high heels and bold accessories. To make it more elegant, I chose this golden belt to dress up my outfit with more elegance. A red lipstick can always help on the sexiness. 😉

The reason why I always choose elegant accessories whenever I’m going for a sexy look is because it will keep my outfit sexy, but elegant at the same time (which is my style), so I always prefer to dress it up to create a balance avoiding being too sexy (which is never a problem, just it’s not my personal style 😉 ).
Of course I went for a little more sexy approach with this outfit, but you can also wear this strapless jumpsuit with ballet flats to make it a little more “dress down“/casual.
 
Matchy-matchy, take a look on how my heels match my golden belt on this outfit, sometimes, it’s a little detail that can make an outfit even more special:

 
Black outfits are always appreciated, but some colour is also good, right?
So moving on from the black outfits, I also chose a light peach coloured jumpsuit in a very different style. This jumpsuit is in a light colour and it’s made in a very classy and elegant style with frill sleeves. Making it a great outfit for the day or even for going out, specially now that we’re in the summer:

 
Here’s my light/cute makeup for this elegant look and my accessories are from Les Georgettes:

 
Are you in the mood of a jumpsuit too now?
Jumpsuits for women can be a great piece to wear at any time of the year, it goes well in the summer, but it’s also perfect for the fall/winter season, all you have to do is add a layer to it (with a jacket/coat). And you’re ready to go!
One of the advantages of a jumpsuit is that since it’s a “all-in-one” piece, it’s super easy to wear, because you don’t have to match a top + bottom part. So they are also perfect for when you’re in a rush and have no time to match all pieces of an outfit. Easy + stylish, that’s definitely a win-win situation.

Often we have a garment that can be worn and styled in many different ways, but have you ever thought about how to wear a shirt and style it differently?
A shirt is such a basic and so classic piece that almost everyone has at least one in the wardrobe, and did you know that it can actually be worn in several different ways? You can even make it look like almost a new blouse!

So I filmed a video with 7 different ways on how to wear and style a button up shirt, showing the same piece worn in different ways, not only in different looks, but also showing you how to style, tie or twist it to create a new way of wearing a shirt. In the number 7, it almost looks like another piece!

Often we have a piece of clothing in our closet and we do not know that it can actually look like several different looks.

Now you know how to wear a single button-up shirt in 7 different ways! And that’s great to notice how many of the clothes we already own, can be worn in many different ways, creating new outfits without new pieces.

I love a sequin dress, specially when the Holidays are here and a sequin dress can be a must-have for this season! Christmas and New Year’s Eve are just around the corner and to celebrate the holidays’ season in style, nothing better than a stunning sequin dress, right?
So thinking about all the parties for this season, one of the dresses I’ve picked is this stunning champagne and rose gold sequin dress, it’s a short dress and I’m loving it:

Dress: Goddiva | Jewellery: Les Georgettes by Altesse

 
This dress is in champagne and it has sequins in rose gold, if you’ve been following me here or on Instagram (if not, just click @manuluize and follow me 😉 ), you already know I’m loving everything rose gold, so I just fell in love when I saw this gorgeous dress. And that is perfect for the parties!
Being a short dress, I find it so versatile that you can wear to many different kind of parties where you need a beautiful short dress and with one like this, you’re ready to shine.

 

This dress is from a limited collection designed by Stephanie Pratt for Goddiva, the celebrity got famous for The Hills on the American television and she has been collaborating with the brand and I’m really enjoying this collection that is full of sequin dresses and jumpsuits, aka, perfect for this season!
 
While I stopped to photograph my outfit, this cute dog at a friend’s house wanted to pose for the photos with me, isn’t she lovely?

 
And here are some details of my look, accessories also in rose gold to match my sequin dress and a party makeup with a red lipstick (that I love):

Dress: Goddiva | Ring and Bracelet: Les Georgettes by Altesse

 
I love brown eyeshadows for everything! For my daily makeup or in stronger shades for a party makeup, like I did in this look with a red lipstick (that I love for a glam-party look).
Sequin dress + party makeup and I’m ready for the Holidays! 😍

Anyone said sequins? I don’t even need to hear the end of the phase and I’m in! I just LOVE sequins! So whenever choosing a night out or a fancy party dress, I do love a sequin dress.
And at this time of the year, nothing like a long sleeved sequin dress to shine through the night! And that’s why I felt in love with this Goddiva sequin dress in rose gold:

Nothing like a full sequin dress, right? This Goddiva dress was love at first sight! In rose gold, it’s the perfect party dress for a night out, for celebrating something special or for the holiday season.
It’s not the first time I try one of their dresses, and like I said on my other outfit with a Goddiva long dress (review), I was positively surprised with the dress’ quality, it’s really well made and so beautiful!
And this short sequin dress was not different, it’s a quality dress that you can wear and enjoy the party shining the whole night!
 

This dress is part of the Stephanie Pratt collection created for Goddiva this season and it’s one of the gorgeous dresses from her collection. It’s the perfect dress to shine and party!
 
The back of this dress is also full in sequins and it has a nice cut out at the top, making it a sexy dress, but in a very elegant and classy way, just the way I love a sexy dress!

For a party, my favourite shoes are high heels, of course! And to add even more glam to this look, I’ve paired this dress with some of my favourite shoes, because of this art deco details in the back. So I always think they are party-perfect.
 
The draped detail at the end of the dress brings even more charm to this beautiful sequin dress that I’m loving! By the way, even being a full sequin dress, the dress is very comfortable, meaning you can easily move wearing it and, of course,  you don’t feel any sequins inside.

 
As for accessories, since the dress is already “full of life” and shine, I went for some delicate pieces, just a rose gold pair of earrings and one simple ring, so all the focus would be on the dress and me. 😉
