Beanies and fedoras are a fashion girls favorites during cold weather seasons, but no hat collection is complete without a beret. Beyond the official duties of the topper in the military, the beret has almost become a cliche symbol of Parisian style

Get spotted this winter in a must-have leopard coat. Many debate, "is leopard the new neutral?"Well, why don't you see for yourself! A heavy faux-fur or wool blend statement coat is just as functional as it is fierce. Pull a Kate Moss and pair it with a tee or glam it up over your perfect LBD. Shop this look below:
Hello friends,
My posts might be a little sparatic for the upcoming week or so as I am out of commission. Hope to be up and about soon and back at work. In the meantime, today's look has that military feel to it. I have had this jacket for awhile now and I don't get to wear it to often but it seemed to work well with these side striped trousers. They have a small slit at the bottom which is very in right now..giving them that athleisure feel. I just added a geometric mock-neck top with a pop of red in the shoe and this great gold clutch from Rebecca Minkoff which picks up the gold from the buttons on the jacket. This is probably one of my favorite looks for the season. Find similar items below and thank you for stopping by today.

In a few more days we will be ringing in a brand new year. 2016 brought so many new experiences for me and I am excited for 2017 to see what it may hold. It has been snowing for the past couple of days so my photographer thought it would be a good idea to get out and have a little fun with it. Every now and then the little kid comes out in all of us whether it be catching snowflakes on your tongue, throwing snowballs or making snow angels. It was a great day to be out and about making the most of it. I was recently invited to the Alice and Olivia sample sale before anyone else and I got first dibs on many beautiful items one of which was this long skirt and matching acrylic clutch. Originally wanting to wear heeled boots, the weather being as it was I decided to put on my low boots, socks, grab a pair of earmuffs and just go with it. Turns out it worked so well. Sometimes the unplanned turns out to be the best. I love these pictures as they show so much of the real me.
Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, and amazing New Year!!!
XOXO,

This holiday season try something a little different than your average red, green, or all black outfits. Show me your stripes!!! Horizontal, vertical, black, white, colorful, or any-which way stripes make a graphic statement. They add a new rule to dressing up. If stripes aren’t your thing, you can try adding prints or textured statements.
I am SO in love with this jacquard mini dress (available petite, regular, or tall). The price is pretty crazy too! With the weather really cooling down these last few weeks, I decided to add an easy-to-layer Wolford bodysuit underneath. Turtleneck’s are really my thing (even though some people think they are for your grandma) I think they are always classy and elegant. With this look, the turtleneck adds a more effortless element.

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.
XOXO

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:

Bomber:Rebecca Minkoff|Bodysuit:Theory|Leggings:J.Crew|Boots:Joie|Bag:Rebecca Minkoff
Add some sparkle to your week with this fabulous bomber!! It may be fully detailed in sequins, but the sporty style makes it casual enough to wear with almost anything. Today, I decided to pair it with all black for a chic day to night look, but you can wear this bomber with denim, leggings, and even sweatpants. The double-sided sequins have serious glam, and you will just love flipping them up and down all day and night.
Tee:J.Crew|Jacket:BB Dakota|Leggings:J.Crew|Boots:Balenciaga|Hat:Rag and Bone
Nothing screams falling leaves and crisp weather more than a layer of woodsy warmth. Up your layering game this fall with eye-catching buffalo plaids and the classic check print. You will find pieces that could literally dress you head to toe…from hats to socks and sneakers.
There is something about the lumberjack resembling material that adds coziness to any outfit. Today I am staying more on the grungier side and opted for a casual street-wear look pairing my oversized shirt jacket with a pocket tee, felt fedora, and motorboats. You can pair yours with jeans, or go all out with longer lengths and pieces with feminine details.

Nowadays, there’s a bit of a rock n’ roll streak running through the lines of several brands. The Ramones, Kiss, ACDC…etc. Fashion’s finest are taking to the streets in rock band t-shirts and jackets, and tearing their items to shreds for an edgier feel. It couldn’t be more true how everything comes back in style.
I found this padded bomber featuring an embroidered ACDC graphic on the chest and printed world tour logo on the back. You could wear it with jeans and a tee for a laid back feel or pair it with leggings as I did today. Underneath a layered knit with a drawstring cowl neck adds a little more warmth. It also is available in a few other colors.

Monday got me like…
Messy hair. Don’t care.
With the weather staying a little bit on the warmer side…I like to get in some cute skirts and dresses without leggings or tights. The checked mini I have on today is from Zara and finished off with a built in knot, which is a detail you may see on a lot of pieces these days. It adds a subtle and fresh twist on your day-to-day look. I paired it with a crisp blouse with a sharp stand collar buttoned up all of the way and pinned it with a Chanel brooch.
As I was finishing up today’s post and browsing the internet for similar skirts to link I came across a site that had an identical piece. Below, shop today’s look along with a few mini skirts I just couldn’t resist to add!! Have a great week everyone!

Happy Friday Everyone!!
I posted this outfit on Instagram a few days ago, so I decided to put it up on my blog because something may just surprise you!! We have seen this patch trend from the runways to the streets and on pieces ranging from forever21 to designers such as Stella McCartney, Mira Mikati, Anya Hindmarch, and even Dolce and Gabbana.
Whether you want an artsy or more edgy vibe, the decoration and emoji-style detailing will not let you down. You can wear items completely covered or maybe just have 1 or 2 graphics. Pieces from the designers mentioned above may be a bit expensive for most of us, but that doesn’t mean you can’t join in on the fun. The sweater I have on today is under $20, and I don’t think anyone would ever even know. You can even get creative with this trend….I have seen adorable Iron on and Stick on patches…DIY!!
Below, I have linked today’s outfit and several other favorite patched pieces I have fell in love with at all price points. Thanks for stopping by today. Have an amazing weekend everyone!!

This was one of my favorite NYFW outfits I wore. I didn’t get the best photos in it so I wanted to be sure I got it up on the blog! I had bought this flared leather mini skirt at Intermix and originally was looking for some sort of bodysuit to wear with it. When I found this whimsical tee with the printed message “Love is a Verb” I thought it would give the outfit a different twist…but it was still missing something.
I got back to the apartment tried it on again and couldn’t quite put my finger on it. After trying on several different belts and accessories I finally tried on this crystal feather belt (it belongs to my sister) and thought it added a playful touch…especially combined with a crystal choker. I mean it was fashion week…..sometimes more is more!

Happy Tuesday everyone!!!
I got back from NYFW last week (which was absolutely amazing!) I adore seeing the new collections and witnessing all of the details in person. A few of my favorite shows included Zimmermann and Rebecca Minkoff, and I had the pleasure to meet all of the designers!
The Minkoffshow was held right on Greene Street in Soho outside of the store. She shut down the entire street!! The pieces were classic, stylish, functional, and a little funky!
The sweatshirt and bag I am rocking today are designed by Rebecca. The sweatshirt shows you can go both ways…with a bold uptown graphic and shady downtown lettering falling like a shadow (as it would in Midotwn). I layered it over a blouse dress and added the classic Balenciaga moto ankle boot for an edgier touch. Shop today's look below:
