Steals & Deals – Faux Suede Bodysuit

Happy Friday!!! Today is the last Friday before Christmas and Channukah and I hope everyone has found their perfect gifts for the special people in their lives. If you are still looking for a great outfit to wear for the upcoming holiday parties and for New Years Eve look no further than this Steals & Deals. As you all already can guess from previous posts I love bodysuits. They are so easy to wear and just make an outfit simple and easy. I found this amazing faux suede bodysuit from Charlotte Russe and it is only $15!!! They used to have it in this light purple grey color like the one I am wearing, but now they only have it in a burgundy color. I am very tempted to buy it in this color as well because it just fits so well! The burgundy is also a great color for holiday time because it isn’t a true red, but still festive. This bodysuit is great to pair with a pair of mid rise or high waisted jeans with or without a belt or you can even pair it with a skirt. I hate having to tuck in a shirt when I wear pants, shorts or a skirt because it always seems to bunch up around my waist and just not lay correctly. This bodysuit fits like a glove! If you are concerned about how low cut it is and not revealing too much my suggestion is to use fashion tape. When I wore this out the first time I used fashion tape. Since the straps aren’t adjustable and I did not have time to go and get it altered I used fashion tape by the chest area and it worked perfectly! The top did not move out of place the entire evening that I wore it. Most pharmacy in the beauty section carry fashion tape, but if you can’t find it they also have it on Amazon Prime. Pair it with a simple necklace like the one I have on and you are all set. Hope everyone who is traveling this holiday weekend travels safe and gets everything that they want and more. <3

Hump Day Treat – Father Christmas Hats

 

Happy Wednesday! It’s time for another hump day treat recipe here on Just Jodi Style and today’s theme is Christmas. I personally don’t celebrate the holiday, but I do love all of the delicious treats that come along with it. This recipe I found from Tastemade and they look absolutely adorable! Check out the recipe here below.

Ingredients:

  • 24 strawberries
  • For the cake
  • 200g unsalted butter, softened
  • 25g vegetable oil
  • 260g caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 300g plain flour
  • 1 ½ baking powder
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ⅓ cup whole milk
  • For the frosting
  • 125g unsalted butter
  • 200g icing sugar
  • 100g cream cheese

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 356 degrees .
  2. Cream together the butter, oil and sugar until pale.
  3. Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well between each one. Turn the whisk right down, if using an electric one, and add in the milk.
  4. Sift in the dry ingredients and fold through the mix.
  5. Grease the mini cupcake tray, and place a teaspoon amount of the mix into each of the cake holes.
  6. Place in the hot oven for around 12 minutes until fluffy and cooked through. The way to check if they are cooked all the way through is to poke the cupcakes with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out clean then it is cooked!
  7. While the cupcakes are baking, make the frosting.
  8. Whisk the butter with an electric whisk until very pale. Then on a low speed, whisk in the icing sugar and once combined, whisk in the cream cheese till just mixed. Place in a piping bag with a round hole nozzle attached or simple cut off the end of the piping bag.
  9. Once the cakes are out and cooled, pipe a spiral shape on the top of the cakes. Start from the outside and slowly work your way into the centre.
  10. Trim the top of the strawberry and place on top. Finish with a blob of frosting on the top.

And there you go! Hope you all enjoy and have a great Wednesday <3
