Fashionably Embracing Winter

Fashionably Embracing Winter

Winter is a beautiful time of year, I love looking(italic) at snow. I highly dislike the cold air, actually I can’t stand it. So I have to get creative on how to keep my outfit looking together, while staying as warm as possible. This Friday I went with a sweater dress and a fur vest. Let’s take a look..   Dress: H&M, similar | Vest: old, similar | Boots: Stewart Weitzman | Scarf: Charming Charlie’s | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Warm, warm, warm. Fur vests faux or real are the perfect way to stay warm during the bitterly cold months. I paired my vest…

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,…

Motivation Monday!

I don’t know about you, but I can’t stand people who always have to be right. I get it, I don’t enjoy being wrong either but come on, you can’t be right all the time. I think it’s our tendency, and human nature, to want to be right. We want to say the right thing, do the right thing, be the right person and know all the answers (unless your a serial killer – kidding, kind of). The reality of that is, you just can’t know everything, you can’t always do the right thing and people will respect your for…

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…
