NOYA

If you’re new to my blog, allow me to explain my connection to Louisiana. I am a proud LSU Alum – Geaux Tigers! But I got more than my education down on the bayou…I got the southern gentleman of my dreams to marry me! Although presently a California girl, I still have an appreciation for the Louisianian culture. New Orleans Yoga Apparel (NOYA) is singlehandedly spreading New Orleans flair across the country and I’m lovin’ it! If you’ve never experienced a craw fish boil in person, take the party to Pilates in these precious pants. There are no words. Never mind the snow ball print (why hasn’t someone opened a stand in SF?!). The list goes on but you should really click here to see the designs for yourself. Words do not do them justice.

The Fit

Now let’s talk about the fit. The older I get the higher I like my pants to rise! Ha! Luckily for me these suckers feature a foldable high rise waistband. I don’t bother rolling it down because I like when my pants make my wanna be abs feel tighter! As far as the fabric, it stretches with you. This is something I do not take for granted. Whether I am stretching at the bar or jogging to and fro these pants stay in place. They are lightweight yet they provide ample coverage. They have passed the peek-a-boo stretch test – they are NOT see-through! I am wearing the full length leggings, but rolled them up to accommodate my shorter than average sticks. Other patterns are available in capri length. Now do you believe me when I say, I workout to satisfy my sweet tooth?! Be sure to tune into Instagram tonight for a chance to win a pair of NOYA leggings of your choice!

Along with the holiday season comes fabulous festive outfits! Already having dabbled with feathers and sequins, for this seasonal look I was inspired by the whole “ugly Christmas sweater” thing. This black and blue fringe skirt was my Hanukkah version, and I styled it with black accents. The studded turtleneck helped create dimension, while the faux fur cropped jacket added drama – something every special occasion ensemble should have. I accessorized lightly with statement earrings, a cocktail ring, and cupcakes.

The dress photographed below is rather loose with a gold sequined overlay. Being roomy in nature, this is the perfect garment to wear for a fancy five course dinner. Who wants to worry about their skirt zipping closed, after chowing down on a delicious meal?! Now just because this dress doesn’t hug your curves, doesn’t mean that it isn’t flattering. The above-the-knee length shows off your legs while the low cut back helps flaunt extra skin back there.

Originally, I styled this look with simple “Peek-a-boo” pearl earrings, my rose gold watch, and nude Christian Louboutin’s – loving how the red sole adds just a touch of color. Being the color enthusiast that I am, however, I swapped out my nude pumps for bright red bedazzled high heels. Which ones do you like more?! I still cannot decide.
