Christmas is around the corner, and many of us are running around making plans and buying gifts. It is always a good time to share a few gorgeous fall pieces and outfit ideas. I hope you like them!

Look 01

The black jumpsuit

A black jumpsuit and sparkling earrings are always a good idea. A black or white jumpsuit is a basic that can be worn in summer with flat sandals, or in fall with high heels, strass earrings, and a blazer or coat.

The statement cardigan

Sometimes we have so many options in our closet that it is difficult to put an outfit together. When you are in doubt, select a basic like a black mini dress, add a classic pair of boots and a cute or statement cardigan. This outfit will make you look stylish.

Mixing patterns

On a daily basis, we want to look casual and effortlessly chic, right? But what about those days when we feel bold and want to make a statement? Mixing patterns is perfect for those days.

Last week in Miami was Art Basel week. Alongside the art fair, there were parties and fashion events—the perfect excuse to wear bold outfits like this one.

The brunch outfit

After a busy Art Basel week, my plans are to have a casual brunch with friends and walk with Teddy and my husband. What do you think about this outfit—casual and cute, right?

Coffee in the Design District

Coffee with friends is always a good idea. My favorite place to go for coffee is the Miami Design District: designer stores and coffee places such as Pura Vida and OTL.

Dressed for gala season

We can’t forget that fall in Miami is also gala season. I had the opportunity to meet Mark Badgley and James Mischka and enjoy a beautiful presentation of their new collection.

It was a dream come true. I felt like a princess for one day in their gorgeous dresses.

A little Art Basel sparkle

This was the second outfit, perfect for Art Basel: lots of sparkle and statement boots. Ready to be seen at Art Basel!

The animal-print mix

We can’t forget animal print—it was a main attraction on the catwalks this year. If you want to try mixing prints but keep it subtle, this outfit is a good starting point: mix prints in the same color.

The office suit

Besides galas, parties, and events, I also work from nine to five, so I can’t forget office outfits. I need to afford the clothing and trips! This Escada suit is the perfect option to look great at the office.
