When it comes to holidays and long weekends I like to dress up a bit. I like to keep it simple, clean and a little festive without overdoing it. For this holiday and well-needed long weekend, I decided to put together a 4th of July off the shoulder outfit. You know my obsession with off the shoulder pieces and I wear them every time I can. I also love red, white and blue outfits, they’re so nautical and I love anything with stripes and these color hues in general. Wanting to keep things fun, I picked a Topshop white off the shoulder dress, which works great on petite women. It’s loose, flirty and it just focuses your attention on the shoulders. It doesn’t matter if you’re a petite curvy woman, a petite straight body woman, it just works, trust me. I’m wearing a size 0 on the Topshop dress. I added a red and blue bandana and tied them together for a little twist on the bandana trend and to jazz up the outfit a little more. Adding a straw hat and super comfortable sandals from Steve Madden was the perfect finishing touch.

Ich mag es einfach zu halten, sauber und ein wenig festlich, ohne es zu übertreiben. Für diesen Urlaub und gut brauchte lange Wochenende, habe ich beschlossen, eine 4. Juli weg von der Schulter-Outfit zusammen zu stellen. Sie kennen meine Obsession mit aus den Schulterstücken und ich trage sie jedes Mal, wenn ich kann. Ich liebe auch, rot, weiß und blau-Outfits, sie sind so nautischen und ich liebe alles, was mit Streifen und diese Farbtöne im Allgemeinen. Zu wollen, die Dinge Spaß, nahm ich einen Topshop weiß weg von der Schulter Kleid, das auf zierliche Frauen funktioniert gut. Es ist locker, kokett und es konzentriert sich nur Ihre Aufmerksamkeit auf den Schultern. Es spielt keine Rolle, ob Sie eine zierliche kurvige Frau, eine zierliche gerade Körper Frau sind, es funktioniert einfach, glauben Sie mir. Ich bin eine Größe 0 auf der Topshop Kleid trägt. Ich habe einen roten und blauen Halstuch und band sie zusammen für ein wenig Torsion auf dem bandana Trend und dem Jazz das Outfit ein wenig mehr. Hinzufügen war einen Strohhut und super bequeme Sandalen von Steve Madden der perfekte Abschluss.

Cuando planeo outfits para los feriados o fines de semana largos aquí en Estados Unidos me gusta vestirme un poco festiva, dress up como digo acá. Me gusta qu mis looks sean sencillos, simples y un poco festivos pero sin exagerar. Para este feriado y muy necesitado fin de semana, decidí ponerme un vestido a los hombros para el 4 de julio. Sabes mi obsesión por los outfits a los hombros y me los pongo cada vez que puedo. También me encantan los looks de color rojo, blanco y azul, son tan náuticos y me encanta todo los looks con las rayas y estos tonos en general. Queriendo mantener mi look divertido, me puse un vestido blanco Topshop a los hombros, que queda muy bien en las mujeres pequeñas o petite como digo siempre. Es suelto, coqueto y que centra su atención en los hombros. No importa si eres una mujer con curvas petite, una mujer más delgada petite, simplemente queda bien, confía en mí y me lo agradecerás después. Estoy usando un vestido tamaño 0 de Topshop. He añadido un pañuelo rojo y azul y los amarré juntos para darle algo extra a la tendencia. El sombrero de paja y sandalias de Steve Madden súper cómodas fueron el toque final perfecto.

Trendy Thursday: Ruffle Off the Shoulder Top

MariaOnPoint | Trendy Thursday: Ruffle Off the Shoulder Top

Top: Caroline Constas Gia off-the-shoulder swiss dot top – This ruffled off the shoulder top extravaganza is summer perfection at its best! It’s so cute on. I tried the petite size and the fit is true to size. The dots compliment the texture of the ruffles and the off the shoulder silhouette, it’s light considering all the layers the off the shoulder top has. Ruffle tops have become my obsession lately, I’m a petite blogger and I’m always looking for those pieces that accentuate your figure and give you a nice silhouette and these are it! | Bottom: Rag & Bone distressed skinny heans/La Paz – I love this brand and the fit, it’s perfect for petite women, it highlights your figure and tucks everything in the right places. I wear a size 25 | Shoes: Sophia Webster ‘lilicoc underwater’ sandals – Sophia Webster knows shoes and I know shoes and I like these shoes, just look at them, no description needed here | Flats: Steve Madden ‘sunshine’ lace-up flats – Snakeskin are so neutral that they go well with everything, think of them as the traditional black flats | Bag: Apolis city market tote via Nordstrom (anniversary sale early access starts July 14, save the date!) – A cute and ample bag to travel with, it’s on my cart already.

Dress: Caroline Constas margi strapless embroidery ruffle dress – I recently tried on this dress and the P (petite) size fitted like a glove. The small size also fitted well but the petite is more snug and felt better. If you’re wondering what to wear to a wine tasting weekend, I would recommend this style. It’s sexy, feminine and casual and just perfect for outdoor wine tastings | Hat: American Eagle Outfitters AEO straw boater hat – I’ve been wearing my J.Crew wide brim hat since last summer and I wanted a similar one in a different color. I’ve tried so many on and all of them have been huge but this one was designed for small head so fellow petite women out there if you’re looking for a wide brim hat, try this one on | Sunglasses: Karen Walker super duper strength sunglasses via Shopbop (take an extra 25% off sale items with code 25EXTRA, you have until tomorrow at midnight to take advantage of this offer, happy shopping!) – I have a small face but I love big sunglasses, the bigger the better. I like these round square ones or the cat-eye ones but simple round not so much on smaller faces | Shoes: Steve Madden Sweety sandals – if you have narrow feet, these sandals are great because the front part is tight and it prevents your skinny feet (if you’re anything like me) to fly away from the shoe.

My obsession with anything and everything off the shoulder carries on to today’s outfit. As you can probably tell, I have a very serious relationship with off the shoulder outfits. I love them all. Off the shoulder tops, off the shoulder dresses, off the shoulder tunics, you name it. I just can’t get enough of the beautiful shape. This trend works great on petite women. It’s sexy, comfortable and very feminine. Nothing says summer better than this cute little number. One of the biggest advantages for petite women when wearing off the shoulder items, like this off the shoulder top with bell sleeves is that you attract attention to your shoulders and it brings a little mystery to your look while letting the top gently fall down and highlight your figure, whether you’re petite, tall wise or size wise, or both. I’ve made off the shoulder tops and dresses part of my summer wardrobe. If I could wear them to the office I would! I’ll be sharing plenty more off the shoulder looks throughout the summer, as I can’t seem to stop wearing them.

Meine Obsession mit allem auf den Schultern Blog-Post heute. Wie Sie wahrscheinlich zu realisieren sind gekommen, habe ich eine sehr ernsthafte Beziehung mit Outfits Schultern. Ich liebe alle. Schultern Tops, Schultern Kleider, Tuniken Schultern, alle ernst. Ich werde nie müde von dieser schönen Silhouette. Dieser Trend ihm zierliche Frauen ist sehr gut. Es ist reizvoll, bequem und sehr feminin. Nichts sagt Sommer besser als diese super nette oben nach Männer. Einer der größten Vorteile für zierliche Frauen Kleider Schultern, wie diese oben Schultern mit dem Glockenärmel geformt ist, dass lenkt die Aufmerksamkeit auf Ihre Schultern und geben Sie ein wenig Geheimnis zu Ihrem Look, während die Spitze sanft fällt, und unterstreicht Ihre Figur, wenn Sie petite, groß oder Größe oder beides sind. Ich machte Tops und Kleider zu Schulter Teil meiner Sommergarderobe. Wenn du mir ins Büro setzen könnte würde! Ich werde im Sommer viel mehr als Tops und Kleider Schultern teilen, wie ich es nicht scheint, kann mit ihnen zu stoppen.

Mi obsesión con cualquier cosa y todo lo que es a los hombros sigue en la entrada del blog de hoy. Como seguramente te has podido dar cuenta, tengo una relación muy seria con los outfits a los hombros. Me encantan todos. Tops a los hombros, vestidos a los hombros, túnicas a los hombros, todos en serio. No me canso de esta silueta preciosa. Esta tendencia le queda muy bien a las mujeres petite. Es sexy, cómoda y muy femenina. Nada dice verano mejor que este top a los hombres super lindo. Una de las mayores ventajas para las mujeres petite de las prendas a los hombros, como este top a los hombros con la mangas en forma de campana es que atrae la atención hacia sus hombros y te da un poco de misterio a tu look mientras el top cae suavemente y resalta tu figura, si eres petite, de altura o talla, o ambos. He hecho de los tops y vestidos a los hombros parte de mi armario de verano. Si me los pudiera poner para la oficina lo haría! Voy a compartir un montón más de tops y vestidos a los hombros durante el verano, ya que parece que no puedo dejar de usarlos.
