When it comes to getting dressed in the morning, I usually like to plan ahead by picking out my outfit the night before. However, there are days where I completely procrastinate to the fullest. Those are the days when I literally stare at my closet for 30 minutes and think to myself, “I have nothing to wear”. When clearly that is SO not true. Nonetheless, I’ve realized that on those same days, I gravitate without a doubt for some trousers and a crop-top. I can’t even explain the countless amount of times this look has saved me. It’s most definitely my fashion grail.

I came across these high waist trousers a few years ago at a local Macy’s. I saw them and was shocked to know that Steve Madden had a clothing line. I picked them up to try them on and much to my surprise, I fell in love. It was a surprise because at the time, I was 19 years old and my style was far away from trousers. I’m so happy that at that moment I gave them a try because now, they have become my go-to pants when I have no time to think but still want to look like I did.
For this Sunday look, I was spending the day with my family. We attended mass like every Sunday and later headed out for Mexican food here in L.A. So I wanted to dress appropriately for mass without having to wear a dress. I think this look has casually-chic written all over it. The trousers give it the perfect clean look. It adds just the right amount of sophistication. The crop top was just a basic piece that embraced the season. Like I’ve said before, it’s still not cold enough to wear long sleeves and coats but it’s getting there.
To finish off the look, I wore these simple pointy toe heels that I bought not too long ago. I actually bought them because I wanted a small heel for days where I didn’t want to wear high heels but also didn’t want to give up on height. In other words, this is my kind of “flats”. It’s so easy to walk in, I can run errands and work in these all day without jeopardizing comfort. I love them. So simple. So chic.
So there you have yesterday’s Sunday Funday look. Like I mentioned above, my fashion grail. Not the same pieces in particular but definitely the crop-top & trouser combo. It’s been my life saver. Can’t wait to bring you a new look this Wednesday. I’ll be featuring these trousers just to show you how convenient owning a pair is and how combining it with a crop-top, you will always look effortlessly in style. Stay tune. Have a good-night my lovies. May God bless you all and I wish you all beautiful night! Tomorrow, don’t forget to seize the day!! Xx
