If you follow my blog and social media, you probably already know that I am a self-avowed jeans queen! I wear jeans more than any other style of clothing in my wardrobe. I know it is not easy to find jeans that fit perfectly! Different brands have different sizes, cuts and fits. That's why I am always on the lookout for a pair of blue jeans that complements my body, fits my tall frame and most importantly gives a boost to my behind! Well, today I can say that I found that perfect pair in DENIZEN® from Levi's®. These jeans are available in modern and curvy fits that really flatter any shape and size. I got my usual size 4 in skinny fit. It is called Essential Stretch Modern Skinny and I am so happy that they make it in Regular, Short and Long sizes! I can't tell you how happy I was to find the long sizes IN STORE!!! Usually brands have long sizes only online, but in my local Target, I found the long inseam for DENIZEN® from Levi's®. It has the perfect amount of stretch, so it fits like a glove and makes movement and sitting down very comfortable. The contoured waistband eliminates that annoying gaping (which BTW such a deal breaker for me while shopping for jeans)! The premium denim is super soft to touch and feels very luxurious. I tried these jeans for a week to see if they kept their shape and I am happy to report that after one wash, these jeans are as good as brand new! I thought it would be fun to show you all how I created 7 different looks for different occasions with my new favorite skinny DENIZEN® from Levi's® jeans for a whole week of outfits.


Look 1 - Denim on Denim
Come fall and my chambray and denim shirts will be out in full force. DENIZEN® from Levi's® makes a great outfit paired with a denim/chambray shirt, tan booties and a fringe bag (Fall's hottest trend BTW)

Look 2 - Day Time Glam
I love to wear skinny jeans with fun heels, bold colors and accessorize the outfit with a statement necklace. It is a very easy and foolproof way to get ready in minutes for a lunch date, going out with girlfriends or any other event you need to look polished but still want to have a casual comfort of  denim.

Look 3 - Casual Friday
Dark wash, non-ripped jeans can be a good alternative for work if your workplace allows casual dressing.  I am out of the corporate world now, but I still love to relive my casual Friday days. This outfit is an easy transition from my lunch date outfit above with a simple change up of shoes and accessories, topped with a tailored blazer.

Look 4 - Weekend Vibes
Nothing can say 'Fabulous Weekend' better than a nautical outfit. I am ready for a fun weekend with my DENIZEN® from Levi's® skinny jeans - styled with a nautical striped tee shirt, fedora and fun, colorful accessories.

Look 5 - Back To Bascis
One of my all time favorite ways to style a pair of jeans is to wear them with a crisp white button front shirt. I styled my DENIZEN® from Levi's® modern skinny jeans with my favorite white shirt, bright flats for a fun, casual, laid back look.

Look 6 - Awaiting Fall
One of the best part of my DENIZEN® from Levi's® skinny jeans is that they are not bulky. The skinny fit makes them a perfect pair of jeans to tuck under boots. My OTK boots are my fall/winter staple footwear and I am so happy that even my skinniest boots were able to go over my jeans without creating that sausage-casing look! :-)

Look 7 - Dress It Up 
A cool pair of heels, bold lip color and embellished top can easily take a well-fitted pair of jeans from day to night.

Putting Our Best Feet Forward With DSW #SaySomethingGreat

*This post is sponsored by DSW. All opinions are 100% mine.
As we venture into last leg of Summer and prepare for Fall, the foremost thing on my mind is to soak up summer as much as possible. That means family trips to Central Park, to farmers markets, a lot of walking on NYC sidewalks, evening strolls along the river and lots of quality time spent together as a family. My partner in this adventure is always my little girl Mili! She is one cute bundle of energy, always active, always on the move! Her two ingredients of fun outing are: her willing cohort- her mommy and a great, comfortable pair of shoes to help her chart her own fun course! As a shoe lover myself, I can see where she got her love for shoes;-) For our family, DSW is a perfect place to find great brand name shoes for even better prices!

Mili has to wear a uniform to her school so I don't have to worry about her putting together an outfit every morning, but I always make sure she is ready with right kind of shoes. These Nike running shoes from DSW are a perfect mix of comfort, quality and cuteness for her growing feet. Come September, she can wear them in her school and feel comfortable all day!
 Putting her best foot forward!
 As I said - always on the move! I love this girl!!

I am also really excited about the DSW Fall shoe collection. From fringe booties, to designer pumps to soft, buttery suede boots, DSW is a shoe lover's dream store. I got these classic Franco Sarto ankle boots in a beautiful ash brown color that I love! I can pair them with deconstructed jeans for a casual fall look or with a dress for a boho look. I am sure I will put them on repeat as fall arrives!



At DSW, we believe in the power of shoes, and in the power of shoe lovers. With thousands of fresh styles for men, women, and children, we've got something for everyone, no matter who they are or how they dress. Shoes say a lot about you. Say something great.

Switzerland Travel Snapshots : Trümmelbach Falls

Trümmelbach Falls are world's only glacier falls that flow inside a mountain and are accessible by stairs and lift. The loud, gushing, powerful waterfall is a sight to behold! As we were staying in Mürren, we took a cable car down to Stechelberg and from there we hiked on a pretty flat 3.1 kilometer trail to Trümmelbach Falls, situated in Lauterbrunnen valley. Can not forget the breathtaking sights we saw along the way!


 The wisdom in nature! It is all about the balance in life:-)
 Mili being Mili! :-)

 The view on the road to Trümmelbach Falls. The flat trail from Stechelberg to Trümmelbach Falls is  just 35 minutes (almost 3 kms) hike, easy for kids too.


 The cutest bus stop in the world!
I am still reminiscing about the natural beauty and just pure awesomeness of Switzerland! Can't wait to go back there sometimes soon!

Lookbook: Stripe On Stripe

Nautical stripes are probably the easiest pattern for anybody to pull off. I love mixing stripes with florals, and polka dots but pairing black and white stripes with similar stripes create a fresh and pleasing to the eye look that I can never get tired of!
