Bendel Girl

Thought I would share my small purchases from Henri Bendel. Since the new store opened in Houston Galleria, I made my way to see the infamous brown and white strips had to offer. Decided to purchase some home fragrance and a coffee mug for my green tea.Loved the store! They nearly have all the accessories […]

Sheer Madness

I’m in love with sheer shirts. (But you already know that.) And even though it’s warm (wait.. HOT!), these sleeves are lovely for keeping away mosquitos. (Madness!) Yet, this shirt has such an elegant flow that brings such a feminine touch.    Sheer Blouse: H&M | Shorts: Zara | Pumps: Target | Clutch: Vintage | […]

Crochet + Cellfolio

I seriously can’t stand hauling a purse sometimes, especially during events. Conversing with friends, meeting new people, and lugging an awkward bag around is quite uncomfortable. It can be such a hassle to keep up with one more thing in a crowded space. And to fix the problem, the solution would be to just carry […]

I Miss Boston.

Lately, I have been waking up thinking I’m in Boston. Feeling the urge to get dressed and walk down Newbury or Bolyston just to relax. As I sit here, I’m looking at old pictures to make sure I don’t forget what it looks like and the wonderful people I’ve met. I noticed that I hadn’t […]

Resort Ready

I am so ready to place my feet in the sand, feel the cool breeze near the ocean, and eat as much food as I want. The Mister and I are planning where we want to go this summer but we’re still indecisive. Since I’m eager to go, I needed a little brightness in my […]

Brilliant Brand: H&M Grand Opening in Houston with Nicole Christie

I must say I was a bit disappointed moving here when I realize there was no H&M in sight. Not remembering that in my younger years, I’d never seen one in the South anyway. Boston opened me up to H&M and to say the least I was pretty obsessed with the store. You’ve seen me […]

Swapnista Houston + Ten Dollar Outfit

If you follow me on Instagram (@brillianceblog), you remember seeing this picture from my recent trip to the thrift store: I literally paid $10 dollars for this little get-up! I was beyond excited how these paired together. Here’s how I styled it: Floral blouse and pants: Goodwill | Heels: Zara | Clutch: Neiman Marcus via […]

Neon + Sheer

Okay, I apologize for the late post but Scandal took over my life for an hour. My husband and I ran a few errands and got back just in time for the show. Do any of you watch it? If so, follow me on Twitter and let’s watch together! I love Olivia’s style. Plus, she’s […]

Remix

I’m a sucker for sheer shirts. They can be worn in all seasons. I had been dying to wear my LC Khol’s high-waisted shorts again (since our recent encounter). Plus, they are so comfortable! You’ve seen this shirt here and these shorts originally worn here. There’s nothing wrong with remixing your pieces. No need to […]
