Fashion Friday Fur

Fashion Friday Fur

Hello there, it’s your resident freezing lady, coming in loud and clear complaining that I’M SO COLD. Haha, but in all seriousness it’s one of my favorite things to find something chic that actually keeps me warm. Cold girls, meet my new fur vest (possibly more of a sweatshirt, but I’m going to call it a vest because IDC). It’s furry, warm, perfection all wrapped up into one. Lets take a look.. Vest: 525 America | Denim: J Brand | Boots: Stuart Weitzman, similar | Bag: Chanel AN ACTUAL VEST. Totally obsessed. There’s no buttons or hooks down the center,…

Motivation Monday!

Motivation Monday!

I hate the stairmaster at the gym just a little less than I dislike the stairmaster that is life. I’ve been working since I’m 14 years old and it’s not until recent that I actually have a general idea of what I want to do. Starting back at the bottom isn’t fun especially after years of two jobs, school and no or very few days off/vacations. I constantly remind myself when I get discouraged that I’m always much happier being busy than not. I love trying my best and working towards a goal, it’s not easy but definitely rewarding. The…

Motivation Monday!

Motivation Monday!

As the holiday’s come and go, so does New Years and New Years resolutions. Now is a perfect time to follow your dreams. I can remember days in High School where I thought College would never come, and moments in College where I thought the work and tests would never end, yet it all does. Sometimes the future seems so far away, but you have to remember that each day you’re creating your future. One of my personal future goals is to wake up everyday doing what I love to do. I put a lot of time and every into…

Fashion Friday: Rosie Cheeks & Shoes

Fashion Friday: Rosie Cheeks & Shoes

This Friday I based my outfit’s color scheme off one of my favorite burberry scarves. Shades of wine are a go to in the Fall/Winter, but this scarf happens to have wines, pinks, mauves and purples commingled in the timeless burberry plaid. I picked out a few pieces that were similar in color and added in black as my base (had to, maybe it’s a Westchester thing but black is my life). Anywho, let us take a look..

Casual Wednesday: Mustard Yellow

Casual Wednesday: Mustard Yellow

Wine shades of the world, beware. Mustard yellow is quickly becoming a fall staple that’s here to stay. As much as I love deep red tones in the Fall/Winter, I still find myself searching for other season appropriate colors. I love wearing this muddied yellow color as it’s bright and alive but clearly not something you pulled out of your Summer wardrobe. Let’s take a look.. Cardigan: Aqua, similar | Blouse: Loft | Denim: JBRAND | Booties: Steve Madden | Bag: Chloe, similar I wore this to my cousin’s 6th birthday party last weekend. As I’ve said before with these booties,…

Fashion Friday: Leather Skirts

Fashion Friday: Leather Skirts

I’ve been looking for a nice leather skirt for the longest time. Fortunately for my bank account and PETA, I haven’t found a perfect one just yet, but I have found a perfect FAUX leather skirt. This week, I paired it with a oversized blouse, trench coat and suede booties. It’s the perfect casual meets dressy look. Blouse: Romeo and Juliet | Skirt: Tinsel | Shoes: Steve Madden | Coat: Guess I love wearing an oversized shirt or sweater with a skirt. It’s so much more comfortable than wearing a tight shirt tucked in. Pairing a flowy feminine blouse with…
