So if you’ve noticed, I kinda like to try different things on the weekend. Today, I went for something a little unexpected and mixed a velour hoodie into a dressier outfit. I hadn’t originally planned on the hoodie, but the softness called out to me and I couldn’t resist. It’s also got these puffy sleeves which I’m a sucker for everytime. I actually really loved this combination and it was perfect for my day of running random errands and getting more wedding planning under my belt. And of course, I was only too happy to be able to sport my new LV Bellevue PM purse!
And since many of you guys requested a tutorial on using the Goody Spin Pins to create a messy bun updo, I recorded a little video this morning for this look today. I still need to do some editing and will have it up soon so please stay tuned! 🙂
Hope you guys had a wonderful weekend!

Love your new LV, Kileen. The black color will go with everything. Your parents are so sweet. Enjoy your new purse 🙂 I am looking forward to your hair tutorial
I can't believe you made a hoodie classy, nice work. Oh, and that purse is to die for.

Love, love me some Louboutin. Red belt goes perfect with the hint of red.

that fifth picture down is adorable! love your look!
I love how this is sophisticated, but a bit casual and not overly dressy. Very nice!
Upon first glance, I didn't even realize that was a hoodie (shoulda read the title!). You really dressed it up. Lovely outfit. Also, are your Louboutins as comfy as everyone claims them to be?!
Better Than a Milk Mustache
@Angela Thanks! As for the Louboutins, I think they're about average as far as comfort goes. The pair I have doesn't have any platform, which can make walking long distances rather tiring on the balls of my feet. The heel doesn't slip at all though, which is a nice change from normal shoes that I buy. From my perspective, I don't think it's really worth the extra money to pay as my feet seem to be ok in $100 shoes as well. I think it's really just up to you. As a gift though, you can't beat a pair of Louboutins! 🙂
I love the red belt….and your hair looks sooo gorgeous up like this:)
Stop by and say Hello:)

You look stunning! 🙂 Your pumps are to die for!! <3
I love the splash of red in your outfit and with the modest touch of pearl earrings. True talent to match a hoodie + grey color and not make it look casual at all!
Awesome outfit. If you want the red back on the buttom of your shoe, I've seen people buy red nail polish and paint the soles of their shoes 🙂
Just Better Together
very unexpected combo, but it works! i love the hair and the splash of red.
That's such a great combination of dressy and casual for the weekend. You look cute and comfy. And that purse…oh wow!
Congrats on the new purse! Your parents are awesome 😀 I love the red details of this outfit, Kileen : )

@Justine oh, that's pretty clever!
Great job on your outfit!
I love your LV bag! That style is such easy maintenance…as long as you are careful with the interior, the exterior is so easy to care for!
I love the pop of color with the belt and the dress is really pretty! Your new bag is gorgeous, too.
I love that your belt matches the soles of your shoes! And after hearing your awesome praise about the goody pins, I went out and got a pack and they are AMAZING!

Love the combo! The hoodie + the sophisticated look is great! I only have one hoodie that I have fully integrated into my wardrobe because it's hard for me to find a hoodie that isn't too sporty, you know? I just can't rock sporty… I love the way you dressed it up!
That dress looks killer on your! Love the whole look!
