Go Fur It

Banana Republic: Sweater, Vest, Scarf

Dino Petrocelli Photography

There is nothing I love more than being able to rely on a brand for the perfect attire no matter the season or event. When I walk into Banana Republic I can always bank on walking out with a bunch of new amazing goodies, which is why I continue to go back.

Their contemporary classics are designed for a style that endures and creations that can be added for your own unique look. Today’s fur vest (DON’T worry it’s faux) is not only so soft and beyond chic, but had endless styling options. It is perfect for fall, winter, and the holiday season, which is now upon us. I decided to pair it with this knit detailed with bows, and silk scarf for a casual and stylish look. Below, shop some of my favorite Banana picks of the season and enjoy some holiday shopping.

Hey guys!!! Happy Monday!!

Today’s look is all about chic layering and mixing of bold colors. This ‘cocoon’ coat is inspired by old-school stadium blankets and adds warmth without bulk. Available in a plethora of colors…your options are limitless. From bright yellow, pink, orange, red and everyone’s favorite neutrals..you can really do a lot with this coat (and those aren’t even half of the colors!)

The one I am wearing pictured above is “French Purple”…and the name just happens to match this vintage Parisian logo tee. Contrasting stripes and feminine details on the scarf add a bold finishing touch, combined with glitter booties (perfect for the holiday season). Shop this look below:

I’M BACK!!!!

After spending a few hours fixing my site (which is still in the process) I can finally show you one of my new looks!! I called today’s post cowboy cool because this shirt/dress gives off a little bit of a cowboy vibe with the snap cuffs and fold-over collar. I was originally going to wear it as a dress with sneakers, but ended up switching it up…which is one reason this is worth the purchase…two in one!!

Can you believe it is already November 1st?? It is officially holiday season…which means one thing…TIME TO START OUR SHOPPING.  I have added a new shop for the season, which consists of my choices for both outfits and potential gifts. If you have noticed the bottom of my site may look a little bit different today. My currently craving section is in the process of being made into its own shop, which will be added at the top. I hope everyone has a great day!! Thanks for stopping by today. Below, shop today’s look:

Lilly Lover

Romper:Lilly Pulitzer|Bow:Lilly Pulitzer|Bag:J.Crew (similar)|Sunnies:J.Crew

When I was younger I lived in everything and anything Lilly Pulitzer. As I got a little older, I grew away from it a bit…but sometimes when you step into a Lilly store it is just too hard not to fall in love all over again. When you wear bright colors, patterns, and prints it definitely affects your mood. It makes it impossible not to be happy and have fun no matter what you are doing.

For all of my Lilly lovers…the romper is a must have. Unfortunately, the one I have on today is no longer available online, but there are so many others that are just as adorable. To complete my look I added a straw bag, white sunnies, put my hair in a topknot and clipped in a Lilly bow. Shop below:

Damn Daniel….back at it again with the white vans…….(but seriously)

I have been wearing the classic slip-on with just about everything this summer. From shorts, dresses, and maxi skirts as you saw on the blog yesterday.

On hot days like today it is easiest to wake up and throw on a mini dress. As I’m sure you know off-of-the shoulder pieces are everywhere these days and a summer must-have.

If I was to pick out all of my favorite off of the shoulder dresses this season you would be scrolling for hours. I decided to stick to similar tones and easy day-to-day styles.

When I was shooting looks the ice cream man drove by and I had this brilliant idea that I needed to get something and use it in my photos. If you are wondering why I am barely smiling…..it is because out of all of the options I chose the blue and green sour popsicle and it completely turned my mouth colors…..so safe to say I will not be doing that again. Thank god it was one of my last looks. 

Tassel Dress

 Finally, next month I will be back in Long Beach Island and I cannot wait…and today’s little number is definitely coming with me. When I go to the shore all of my outfits are usually easy breezy, and by that I mean…denim shorts, little dresses, and pretty much anything that equals no fuss!

This LWD has a bit of boho vibe from the tassel accents at the hem. I decided to elevate todays look with a silk floral scarf and straw boater hat to add a few extra summer details. I have seen adorable tassel pieces all over the internet and not just on clothing…on hats, clutches, and even shoes. Below, I have linked white dresses with tassels at all price ranges. Have a great week everyone.

Red Threads

Happy Tuesday everyone,

I am loving the look of scarves these days, rather around the neck, as a belt, around a hat or in the hair, they add a certain je ne sais quoi. This one in particular has an equestrian look to it, the brown tones mixed with the red are so elegant. Originally I was going to wear a red shoe but then decided to pull from the brown so I added my calf hair booties for that unexpected punch. No matter, it's still all about this scarf for me. I went from having it around my neck to tying it around my head and you are probably going to see me wearing this look at least a few times this summer as I play around with this accessory. Today I decided to wear sleek white wide-leg pants and this red and white striped off the shoulder top, another popular look this summer. Just a red belt, my purse, a little jewelry and the look is complete. Hope you enjoy and thanks for stopping by. Shop today's look below:

Rock and Roll Gal

_AM20468.jpg

Serious Rock&Roll vibes this Friday….I mean why not IT IS the weekend!! Black and white stripes, a knotted tee, fedora, a skinny scarf with lips and paisley print, and of course statement sunnies=all of your rock fashion trends (minus the mohawk and ripped denim vest) combined into 1 chic outfit.

Remember that sale at Intermix I mentioned last week? That’s where I found this pair of striped Rag&Bone jeans for under $100…it seems as though they are sold out now so I linked a few other sites below (also pretty low in stock too) I have been obsessing over skinny scarves lately especially all of the ones from Rockins. You can wear them a ton of different ways and they add that free-spirited edge to your outfit. Shop this look below. Enjoy your weekend everyone!!!

Grown up Grunge

Overalls:H&M (similar here)| Jacket:J.Crew (older)|Boots:Rag&Bone|Scarf:Burberry

Dino Petrocelli Photography

‘Grunge’ is a style that has been around for years. It is about being casual and comfortable, yet there is just something about it that gives your look an edgier vibe. Whether it be layering, an oversized piece, statement tee, plaid shirt, or military boots….something that gives your outfit an effortless and tough blend.

 

Today I mixed combat boots with baggier black overalls, a green puffer jacket, and scarf around my neck for a subtle grungy street look. You can shop my look below:

Lessons in Layering

Denim:Rag&Bone| J.Crew blazer, scarf, boots,vest|Turtleneck:Alice&Olivia

Dino Petrocelli Photography

Tis’ the season for layering...a look that can keep you warm but also make an outfit more interesting. All you need to do is combine a few basics along with some similar style pieces. My basics today consist of a navy turtleneck and a pair of jeans. I have mixed in a feminine and fitted houndstooth blazer with a buffalo-check vest and oversized scarf.

You have to check out the Sperry collection for J.Crew!! The winter-weather-ready boots are cozy and perfect for the snow. You can shop this look and similar below. Have a great day everyone!! XOXO

Feelin Foxy

J.Crew Vest, Chambray Top, Scarf| Hat:Kate Spade| Denim: Rag&Bone|Booties:Toga Pulla

Dino Petrocelli Photography

Classic buffalo check =a no-brainer. It has such a cold weather feel to it. Today I paired an oversized wool checked scarf with a similar style down vest, which is perfect for layering. The pattern just gives off feelings of warmth.

If you are feelin foxy then this hat is a must!! It is too cute with its face just peaking out over the cuff and detailed with rhinestone eyes, a faux fur pompom on top, and tail in the back. Have a wonderful week everyone. You can shop this look below:

Perfect Plaid

Sweater:Vince|Denim:Rag&Bone(Similar)|Boots:Christian Louboutin(Similar)|Bag:Coach

Dino Petrocelli Photography

Happy Friday everyone!!

Today’s look is pretty casual and focused around classic black and red plaid. I think the crazy thing about the bold pattern is that it has so many different connotations (preppy, punk, grungy, chic etc.) There is a bit of a combo in this outfit- ranging from distressed jeans to this charming crossbody bag.

What are everyone’s weekend plans?! Do you have any awesome outfits picked out you are dying to wear?? I would love to hear about it! Thanks for stopping by!! Shop today’s look below:

Sometimes casual style=the best style

This effortlessly chic dress by BB Dakota masters casual wear.  The bold and color block knit makes as the perfect dress for warmer days and the perfect layering piece for when it cools down. You could add leggings, jeans, a belt, and even a collared shirt….talk about versatile.

Today’s accessories include suede booties, a slim crossbody bag that also converts into a clutch, and a scarf draped over my shoulders. This bag is also available in other colors if you were to decide to go with the blue or tan version of this dress. Shop this look below:

Red Accents

Sweatshirt:H&M|Jeans:Joe's Jeans|Boots:Toga Pulla|Scarf:Vintage Celine|Hat:Older

Dino Petrocelli Photography

You don’t need a whole new wardrobe to spice up your look…sometimes all you need are the right accessories. Even the most boring outfits can be transformed with the help of a few key pieces. Today I have on jeans and a plain black sweatshirt (boring right?!) but the outfit is given character by red accents and a mod inspired driving cap.

Around my neck is a Celine printed silk scarf I ordered off of the vintage boutique on Farfetch. There are some really awesome pieces on there for great prices.  The red design just happens to match my new Toga Pulla boots….which I immediately became obsessed with as soon as I saw. I think the western style silver buckles on the side are just the coolest and the scarf adds a perfect refined touch.  

If you are searching for a plain sweatshirt, I recommend this one from H&M. It is a great price and also comes in light pink and gray. Below, shop this look and my scarf picks (both vintage & new) I hope everyone has an amazing weekend. XOXO

Paris

Beret:Stella McCartney|Top:Topshop|Pants:Theory(older)|Boots:Reed Krakoff(similar here)|Scarf was a gift from Paris

Dino Petrocelli Photography

Bonjour!!!

I am feeling very Parisian today with my new Stella McCartney beret…so what better way to accessorize it than with a Paris scarf draped across my shoulders. Both lend an effortlessly chic finish to this look. As you may know by now, I tend to stick to neutrals when the weather changes. They are easy to mix-and-match, are simple and versatile.

My parents bought me this scarf while they were in Paris, so unfortunately I have no advice on where to purchase it! The good news is…you do not need it to pull off this look. Below I have picked out other berets, wraps, and scarves that will work just as well. Remember, you do not need to stick to one neutral color. I hope you enjoy! Have a great day!

XOXO

Shades of Gray

Jacket:Splendid|Skirt:Joie|Boots:Vince

Dino Petrocelli Photography

One of my favorite boutiques to shop at in my area is Circles. They offer some of the most sought after designers such as DVF, Joie, Rag & Bone, Theory, Splendid, Veronica Beard, Nicole Miller Etc. Three pieces of today’s look can be found at the store- this jacket (Splendid), skirt (Joie), and boots (Vince). All pieces are favorite’s of mine this season.

 I love that the long knit sleeves on this anorak give such a cozy vibe for the cold weather…not to mention are designed with a tribal inspired pattern. In addition to the striped tee and scarf layered underneath, I added this high-waisted wool skirt with an exposed front zipper, which is the perfect wardrobe addition. Suede booties are a must this fall and this pair fromVince offer the perfect touch and are also selling out fast!! Shop them below along with other items from today’s look. I hope everyone has a great weekend! Enjoy. 

Precious and Primitive

Scarf:Precious and Primitive| Denim:Rag and Bone| Pumps: Christian Louboutin

Today I am showing off my beautiful new scarf from a recent collaboration with Precious and Primitive. The line created by Stephanie Sachs and Sandee Zahn combines precious fabrics with primitive designs, and uses bold colors and patterns in their ultra soft scarves. The tribal pattern (pictured above) has rich shades of brown and cream, which is perfect for me because I love neutrals so much.

I decided to be very simple today, while pairing the scarf with a white tee, denim, and my nude pumps. There are so many unique ways you can style the scarfs from headpieces, to tops, and even sarongs.

Favorite Jeans

We all have pieces of clothing that we love but there is always something special about our favorite jeans…and they are always SO hard to replace. Finding a pair that fit perfect seems nearly impossible. I had a pair from Guess that I have been wearing for YEARS until the worst happened…they started to rip. Recently I bought a pair of distressed Joe’s Jeans which I hate to say, I have been living in…so obviously I couldn’t have been more excited when I found out they came out in white!!! The fit is incredible and I just love the frayed cuffs at the bottom. Today I paired them with a white top, and this new long velour coat from Zara that I fell in love with when I saw it in the store. The look manages to show it is indeed spring, but still a little cold out. 

Rubber Fringe

Shot by Dino Petrocelli

Seems as though we’re up and down these days weather wise but I am continuing on looking forward to spring. A little sun and a little slush is where we are headed now…so I will just put on my new hunter fringe boots, which I think I can make work with just about anything. That’s how smart they are. The new fringe style adds a touch of boho and I have decided to pair them with this nautical striped dress and let the fringe fly for a bit of a fun look. You have the option of letting it be loose or with the strap around the bottom you can secure it down. I added a pair of over-the-knee socks, a great scarf for some added color and my J.Crew army green jacket…a little unexpected. I am good to go for the day and don’t have to worry about ruining any of my shoes!
