Bringing Metallics into 2015

Bringing Metallics into 2015

Happy New Year’s Eve everyone!! Something I’ll totally be brining into 2015 is metallics, it’s definitely become the more acceptable, less tacky sequins (at least by me that is). I saw this blazer in August and I knew I had to have it. Being somewhat of a bargain hunter, I couldn’t get my self to pay regular price ($198). So a few months later I was able to get it on sale (you’ll die at the price now, you can find it under the Shop My Look at the bottom). Anyway, my point being, I love this blazer and I…

Layers, Leopard and Louie

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas, or a day off if you don’t celebrate! Today’s look is something I would consider fun for me. If you know Westchester, New York, this look is just that and almost a little mob wives-esque too. I really love how it came out. Lets take a look.. Coat: H&M | Blouse: Aqua, similar | Denim: J Brand | Shoes: Schutz | Bag: Louis Vuitton  Theres just something about leopard and Louis Vuitton thats so.. I mean business. And I don’t mean that in a corporate sense. Very mob wives. OK, I’ll move on from talking…

Merry Christmas Eve Style!

Merry Christmas Eve Style!

First off for any of you that celebrate Christmas, Merry Christmas Eve! I wanted to do a fun look that’s both chic and festive for the season. Let’s take a look..   Vest: Adrienne Landau | Sweater: Nasty Gal | Denim: Loft, similar | Shoes: Pour la Victorie, similar Recently I’ve been in love with Winter white. It’s such a great additional neutral to add to the black, brown and grays of the world. I feel like many people stay away from white in the Winter. It’s definitely out of my comfort zone, but ever time I wear it, nothing…

Motivation Monday!

Always stand by your friends and family while they struggle. I’ve always appreciated my friends that have stood by me through difficult times. Being a 20-something, I’m always working, going to school (done for now thank god) and in general always doing something, so the people who understand this and stand by me have always been the ones I appreciate the most. When you’re working hard it’s difficult to give the little time you have to every single person. As a friend or family member, be understanding. Lose the wining assholes who keep complaining that you don’t see them enough…

Hi everyone! I have a confession to make: I think I’ve purchased more coats in the past three months than ever in my life. Was confessing that supposed to be therapeutic? Well it wasn’t. Anywho, I found another coat I love that I wanted to share with you. This week’s look is all about the coat, let’s take a look.. Coat: Glamorous | Sweater: Loft | Denim: Paige, similar | Shoes: Michael Kors | Bag Gucci I’ve never had a remotely light colored coat before so at first I wasn’t sure what I would wear with this. I pulled (dug) out…

I think everyone fights this fight at some point in their life. Do you take the leap and follow your dreams or do you keep doing what’s in your comfort zone? Although change is uncomfortable, I think the best way to initiate change is exactly as this quote states, “tip toe.” If you’re dyeing your hair, you don’t go from black to blonde in one appointment at the salon, you do it slowly over time. (Unless you live on the edge and have the balls to dye your hair all at once and have no worries of it all falling…
