The fall season is here again and here are 4 fall outfits to inspire you in getting ready in style for this season. I’ve picked two outfits for going out and 2 outfits for staying in, so we all can have inspiration for different outfits and different moments of our week.

Let’s start with a red dress, apparently, I was actually on a “red mood”, because both of my going-out-outfits are actually red. I love red outfits, but I don’t know why they remind me so much of the fall season.

Since the weather is already getting quite cold here in Milan, long sleeve dresses are required! So the first red dress is perfect for lunch/dinner with friends or for a date night.

To style it in a very feminine and elegant way, I choose to wear it with a large headband with crystals, that make this outfit have a chic appeal, even if it’s a bodycon dress.

The square cleavage of this dress also helps to make it more of a chic dress, because even if it’s a bodycon dress, it creates a balance between sexy and elegant.

Here you can check more details of my accessories and makeup:

The jewellery is from APM Monaco, from their Météorites collection and the red dress is from Femme Luxe Finery. I’ve been wearing this jewellery pieces so much lately.

Now it’s time for the second outfit, another dress:

For this outfit I decided to go with a darker red shade, almost like a wine colour for this bardot dress, because I love the way it looks and it’s such a great colour for this season.

While the weather starts to get greyer, I love to bright it up with some colour! And this dress is so cute.

I also styled it with some silver jewelry, this set is from a brand called Verano Hill, to bring a little bling to this outfit. The dress is from Femme Luxe.

Well, since the cold weather arrived and the global pandemic situation seems that it will still stay here for a little longer, I also picked some loungewear outfits to help you stay home comfortable and in style. Because during times like this, it all starts to make our mood get a bit down and every little help we can get that will make our day brighter is very welcomed! And to me, a cute and nice outfit, even for staying home is definitely something that gives that special touch even for staying home.

So my first loungewear outfit is this black loungewear set, that is super elegant being incredibly comfortable at the same time:

It’s something elegant and cute for staying home, but also very easy to wear. A loungewear set is great specially because being a set, you don’t even need to worry about finding two pieces to match between them.

I don’t know you, but even when I stay home, sometimes I just look at my clothes thinking what to wear and how to match them, so a loungewear set is great for cutting the time you spend thinking about it. Just get your set and you’re ready to go (or to stay home 😉 )!

Last, but not least, this is one outfit specially for staying home and to be very comfortable! The joggers are definitely back in fashion and I must confess I didn’t wear one since I was a child, but I couldn’t resist this one in pink! It’s the cutest one:

If sportive is your style, joggers are probably already part of your closet, but I’ve just rediscovered them and this is definitely an outfit I will be wearing more during this season.

Joggers are great for staying home or running errands, since it’s a trendy pair of pants, you can know wear it in so many different ways, that it’s no longer just a home outfit.

If you follow me on Instagram @manuluize, you already know I’m moving to a new house and that I’ve been decorating it all from zero, so I’ll be spending a lot of time home organising everything during the next weeks when all my furniture will be delivered, so loungewear will definitely have a big-time on my choice of outfits.

If you know me already, you know I love a dress and short evening dresses are the perfect choice for that special occasion or for a night out.

What I love the most about short dresses is that you can wear them on many occasions, so when you prefer a short dress instead of a long dress, you’re able to easily wear it again on other occasions.

I mean, don’t take me wrong, I love maxi dresses, but when you invest in one, you probably are not going to wear it as much as you would be able with a short dress. But once you decided it’s time and occasion for a beautiful mini dress, it’s time to choose your style!

Short evening dresses: Some different Styles

There are many styles of short evening dresses, so you will have a lot of options. From a basic style to a full sequin dress, you can choose the one that’s perfect for each occasion.

Sequins and embroidered dresses are great for more formal occasions, while something less formal like a night out can require a simpler evening dress.

I love dressing up, so whenever I have the opportunity, I’ll be happy to do so and add some crystals, sequins and shine!

But, of course, not all occasions ask for a full glam sequin dress and you can also choose simpler dresses that are also elegant and completely adequate as party dresses.

A black dress, for example, is always a great dress full of possibilities. A black evening dress is a must-have for every closet! It will for sure be a great acquisition to you, so you’re always ready even for that last-minute event.

I mean, a woman always needs to have that amazing black dress waiting for her, or that many amazing black dresses. A new black dress is never too much because you will always find an occasion to wear it.

If you want a dress that is something in the middle of a basic dress and a full glam one, there are also many styles and options. You can choose a party dress that has some embroidery details or even some sequin details.

I was browsing through party dresses online and I love this light pink short dress inspired by the flapper style! That would be a great example of a dress between basic and full glam, it’s something you can wear for a birthday party or even for a day wedding.

I would see it even as a night out outfit in the city.

Lace dresses are also another great option to choose as your short evening dress. They are classy, elegant, and very feminine.

If your occasion or event is a formal event and you want to go full glam, you can enjoy full sequins and embroidery dresses. They are for sure my favorite kind of dress. I can’t help a little glam and I will be always happy to dress up on every possible occasion. 😅

Short evening dresses: embroidery dresses

To me, a party is a time to dress up and I absolutely love embroidery dresses. They can be done with traditional embroidery or embroidery with crystals and sequins. Nothing better to “scream” party outfit than an embroidery dress.

And anyone can wear embroidery dresses, at any age, you can enjoy and shine with an embroidery dress. All sizes are also welcomed and you can find many plus size dresses with embroidery and sequins.

Short evening dresses: sequin dresses

I’m sorry, but I’m not sorry, I just can’t help but loving sequin dresses and I’m always happy to find an occasion when I can wear one.

But now you think, when to choose a sequin dress as your evening dress?

You can wear a sequin dress on many occasions, depending on the model of the dress. A sequin dress can be your choice for a fancy night out, for your birthday, holidays (especially for NYE), or even to formal occasions like a wedding.

So when we start from sequins or embroidery in some details of a dress, it can be a great wedding outfit for an evening wedding. You have a touch of shine to make your look more formal and perfect for a wedding.

But when you’re the star of the party, you can for sure go for a full sequin dress! Like I love to do on my birthdays, which is just at the begging of fall in October. And when I say full sequins, yes, a complete sequin dress even if long-sleeved.

What about you? What will you choose as your next short evening dress?

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:

Loungewear set: Femme Luxe Finery

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!

Top: Femme Luxe Finery | Trousers: Femme Luxe Finery | Glasses: Dolce & Gabbana

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:

T-shirt: Femme Luxe Finery | Shorts: Rosa Chá | Necklace: Forever 21 | Glasses: Swarovski

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. 💚

A couple of weeks ago I wrote that I was in the mood for some jumpsuits (check my jumpsuits for women blog post here), and that was when I met the Femme Luxe website, so this time I’m writing a Femme Luxe Review to help who’s looking for more info on this online store.
So, this time I’ll be showing you what I’ve got from the website. I went for some different kind of clothing: from a white bodysuit to a lounge wear set! Check everything I’ve choose this time and more information about this website.
 

• Femme Luxe Haul Try on & Review:

Like I wrote on my previous post, I was positively surprised with the quality of the clothing from this website and this time I tried more than just jumpsuits. So my choices this time included a polka dot white and black dress, a lounge wear set, a white lace bodysuit (on that very trend style made with lace and some transparency) and a little white jacket.
If you’re wondering if Femme Luxe is a safe website and if it’s real, yes, it is. All four pieces that I had chosen arrived well and they were just like the photos showed on their website. Therefore, the clothes do arrive and from this and from my past experience, all of them were just like pictured on the website.
Bonus point is that the prices are very affordable and the quality of fabric and sewing are fine! So here are my photos showing how the clothes wear and how I styled them:
 

• White Polka Dot Dress:

It’s no surprise that I LOVE DRESSES, right? So, when I saw this asymmetric polka dot dress at Femme Luxe, I was in love! It’s such a cute dress and it’s also perfect for this time of the year, when the weather starts to change a bit. The asymmetric detail of one long sleeve makes it very delicate, but also very fashionable!

 
Since the dress is super cute, I went for a classy style! Matching it with a white pair of shoes and a white bag, plus some classy big black sunglasses:

 

 

• White Lace Bodysuit from Femme Luxe:

If you have Instagram (BTW, if you don’t follow me yet, don’t forget to follow @manuluize for your daily dose of fashion and beauty inspiration), you probably noticed how the lace bodysuit trend took over Insta outfits lately! So there I was in the mood to try it!
So I decided to pick a white lace bodysuit from Femme Luxe this time, to see how I’d feel about it and how to style it. My favourite way to style it is to wear with another layer, like a jacket or even a shirt or a long sleeved top. Plus, add a layered necklace and you will be super trendy!

 

• White jacket:

Something that I noted that I was missing for a while on my closet was a white jacket! So when I saw this one, I knew that was it! Something as basic as a white jacket is always useful to match with so many different outfits and being white, it will never go out of style and it can be paired with so many different colours.
Here I styled it with the same lace bodysuit, creating a different outfit. But this jacket will be so versatile to pair with some many pieces, from tank tops to dresses, with shorts, skirts and pants.
 

• Lounge wear set:

I’m one of those people who loves beautiful pyjamas and loungewear, I mean, why wouldn’t you be stylish when you’re inside the house or just running errands, right? So, I felt in love with this lounge wear set with a pair of pants and a cropped top that’s so cute and super lovely:

 
I actually had thought it would be like a set of sweatpants, but the fabric is actually different, it’s lighter, so it’s perfect even for the not so cold days and for staying in. It’s cute and super comfy, definitely a win-win kind of outfit!

 
You can wear this set with a pair of sneakers or ballerina flats and you’re ready to leave the house too!
Nothing like a beautiful longe wear set, that if you need to quickly go out, you don’t even have to think that much, makeup and go! 😉

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. 😉

Let’s shine in a sequin dress, girls! I can’t never explain how much I love sequins, so tell me about a lovely party dress in sequins and I am in!
On the daily life or for party dresses, I always loved sequins and when I saw this mermaid maxi dress almost full in sequins I felt in love.

Sequin Dress: Goddiva

 
If it’s your time to shine and you’re looking for a full glam party dress, sequins are always a good option to think about. And if you want to be breathtaking glamourous, this is definitely a kind of dress you can go for.
The perfect party dress is that dress that matches your style and your body shape, if you want to value your silhouette, a sequin dress like this one is perfect, because it values your waist and it has a skirt with volume that creates quite a glam effect.

This dress is from a website called Goddiva, they sell affordable party dresses that are actually so beautiful. Inspired by red carpet and celebrity styles, the designs are very modern and beautiful, like any other shopping online moment when you don’t know a website, we always think twice, right?
The dresses look amazing on the website and they actually are! I was very surprised by the quality when I received the dress, the sequin dress was lovely and the chiffon fabric on the dress is also so soft to the touch, so definitely good quality in affordable prices for party dresses online.
 

I chose this cut out sequin and chiffon maxi dress from Goddiva in the color champagne, just because I was so in the mood of light colors such as champagne and rose gold, and I love how maxi dresses are so elegant in delicate colors.
 

Something that’s very interesting about this maxi dress with sequins is that because the dress has the sequins in a gradient pattern, if the dress is too long for you, you can have it fixed and shorted easily. Mine was actually just perfect with my high heels.
 

• How to rock this sequin dress:
It’s perfect as prom dress, also for bridesmaids, matching styles or not matching, or any other event you’re ready to shine! Be aware: every eye in the room will turn to you when you arrive. 😉
 

 
The shoulder detail is perfect for this season, since cut out shoulders are so trendy right now! And it’s actually a very sexy look, but in a very elegant way.

 
And here’s the back of this sequin dress in a maxi style:

 

 
Makeup time!
Here are some details of this party makeup and of my hair to match this stunning glamourous sequin dress:

Dress: Goddiva | Rings: Jeulia Jewelry | Bracelet: Charriol

 
Here you can also see my eyes’ makeup in shades of golden and dark brown paired with a red lipstick, just to make all my look even more glam!

With a dress like this you can either go full glam with your makeup like I did here or you can go for a more soft and delicate look in shades of pink and with a nude lipstick, it all depends of your personal style.
 
* This dress was sent to me by the brand, as always, all opinions and reviews on the blog are my sincere and true opinions on a product or piece of clothing.

A red dress is that kind of dress that every woman should have in her wardrobe, and when in doubt, just start with the classics or basic pieces.
And this red dress is exactly that, it’s such a versatile dress that can be worn for spring or even for the fall/winter season!

Dress: StyleWe | Shoes: Surface to Air | Bag: Love Moschino

• Red dress outfit:

A simple short red dress that can match different moods and styles. As you all probably know by now, I love high heels and this is the kind of shoes that I usually choose to pair with my outfits and dresses and so was the case here.

• GET MY OUTFIT:

It’s a red dress with a minimal approach (that I love!), so I thought it was a perfect classic choice to be part of my closet.

You can wear it with a bigger bag like I did for the daily life outfits or you can pair it with a smaller handbag or even a clutch for a more dress up/night out kind of outfit.
I think I already wrote here on the blog how I’ve been a bit obsessed with red clothing lately, specially red dresses, I’m in such a red vibe these days! And do you know why? Because red is such a color-trend for this year! So if you doubt, go with the red!
 

As for the quality of the dress and a Stylewe review, that’s from where this dress is from, fabric and quality are nice and the prices are always affordable with some interesting variety of dresses and clothing in general.
 
And since I was in an all classy mood, I just decided to go with a pair of black high heels, some golden accessories like a choker, earrings and a delicate flower ring.

• GET MY MAKEUP LOOK:
[show_shopthepost_widget id=”3131785″]
 
For my makeup look, a clean and almost natural makeup with a touch of a red lipstick, the color is Ruby Woo by MAC. My all time favorite red lipstick.

Spring is here and it almost looks like it’s already summer, so beautiful summer dresses are a must for this season!
And for this outfit I picked a short dress in white with some lace details in black and white that’s perfect for a fresh and chic outfit during the summer days.

Dress: StyleWe | Black sandals: H&M | Hairstyling by Namu Hair Milano

 
I love white for spring and summer outfits and a little white dress is always a must-have for the summer season. But since I love a little detail or something that makes an outfit more delicate, I picked this white dress with some lace detail.

 
The shoulders’ cut is very modern and makes this dress a little more edgy than if it wasn’t there.

 
You all know how much I love high heels and now that the spring has arrived, it’s time to take your sandals out for a walk.

I spent the day visiting some events of the Milan Design Week and Vanity Fair created the Green House, a cute and lovely place with beautiful gardens where I took this next photo:

 
This white dress is from the website StyleWe, where I have been able to find some cute dresses with affordable prices, and with an interesting quality of fabrics and sewing. Be it for winter outfits as well as summer outfits. They have a cool selection of pieces.

 
For my makeup, a very basic look with brown eyeshadows on my eyes and a bright pink lipstick on my lips:

Spring is finally here! Yesterday was a beautiful and sunny day her in Milan and I could finally wear my new pink lace dress, spring-perfect!
You all know how much I love delicate outfits and I’m in such a vibe of all shades of pink, specially baby pink and millennial pink for this spring/summer. So I couldn’t wait to wear this delicate little dress.

Pink lace Dress: Popjulia

This cute dress is going to be perfect for the spring/summer days this season and it’s from an affordable website called Popjulia. When shopping online, there is always a doubt if the piece you buy is going to arrive and be of good quality, I already own a few pieces from this website and I’ve been enjoying it.
The fabric of this dress is nice, the only thing you should remember is to check the delivery time, my dress took about a month to arrive here in Milan, so take that in consideration if you’re picking an outfit for a certain occasion. 😉
 

The style of this pink lace dress is cute and elegant, perfect for a casual afternoon out or even to going out during the summer nights.
You can either wear it with high heels like I’m doing here or dress it down with a beautiful pair of ballet flats.
 

Because I was in the mood for something almost monochromatic, I paired this pink dress with nude shoes and rosé accessories, like the earrings, bracelet, ring and even my hand bag. All in rosé!
 

 
My outfit photos were made at the Darsena here in Milan, near the Porta Ticinese, where you will be able to find a lot of coffee shops and bars. Such a lovely place to have a walk during the spring days.

This dress is fully in lace, so, so it’s its back.
 
For my makeup, nothing too different of my usual everyday makeup with a touch of a bright pink lipstick:
