Not only do I love Friday's because it means that the end of the work week is finally here, but also because my company allows Casual Friday's! I really wanted the leopard cardigan print to stand out so I left all other pieces of the outfit minimal. I hope you all have a great weekend!
Best Dressed at the 2014 Academy Awards



Last night at the 2014 Oscars, celebrities packed on the glitz, glamour, and their best outfits. Many celebrities graced the red carpet of the 86th Academy Awards and looked oh so fabulous! I would have to say that I love watching all the award shows, especially the Academy Awards, just to see what all the stars are wearing. Here are My Golden Beauty's Top Three Academy Awards picks!

Lupita Nyong'o has once again gotten the nail on the head. In a stunning baby blue Prada dress and a diamond studded headband, Lupita looked beautiful! I would have to say that Lupita is definitely on a red hot red carpet streak.
Up next is the beautiful Kate Hudson who always looks stunning on the red carpet. This year Kate Hudson rocked a plunging neckline Atelier Versace gown.
Last, but not least, I felt that Camilla Avles in a peach colored Dolce & Gabbana dress looked amazing!
Valentine's Day Date Night Outfit
This weekend my fiancΓ© and I celebrated Valentine's Day. We got massages in the morning and then went out to dinner to one of our favorite sushi places. It was a really nice relaxing day (and much needed too)! For the dinner date I wanted to wear something pink and girly - I thought my pink sweater dress from BCBG Max Azria (the Elandra Pleated Ottoman-Stitch Dress) would be PERFECT for the occasion!
The dress is a short sleeve sweater dress with pleats. The dress is super comfy yet chic!
How amazing is this belt? I love the beautiful stone work and the details. Also, as an added bonus (and why I love this belt so much) is that this belt is adjustable!

Black Faux Fur Vest
Ah yes. The faux fur vest. One of the hottest trends this winter! I LOVE faux fur vests - dress them up or down they are effortless and super chic!
Since it's been super cold over on the east coast, my favorite accessory to combat the cold is a faux fur vest! This faux fur vest is from this cute boutique in Philadelphia called Elle Lauri and is becoming one of my favorite places to shop in the city! Elle Lauri is an affordable lifestyle women's fashion brand will very trendy clothing!
