Shades of Green & Three-fer Thursday Feature

20 January 2014


Outfit Details:
Jacket: J Crew Factory / Sweater: J Crew Factory / Jeans: J Crew / Boots: Banana Republic /
Scarf: Banana Republic






 First, I am happy to announce  that I was picked to be a featured look for last week's Three-fer Thursday. How exciting! Go visit Bethany & Meghan to see their other top picks!

This look is one of my go to looks for the Fall/Winter. A bright sweater, a bold scarf and a coat for added warmth and layer. I love the way bright emerald looks with leopard. I've had this Banana Republic scarf for ages! I dry clean it to keep it looking new because I love it so much. I fixed my scarf midway through the shoot and I think it looks 10x better as an infinity scarf. What do you think? Enjoy your week!

Just a White Tee

03 June 2013


Hello Everyone! It's been a crazy month but I am back with an outfit post. Yesterday, I had to run a few errands and then attend a barbecue so I wanted to look casual but put together. I chose to wear a white t-shirt with a statement necklace. First let me say, I love white t shirts!! I just can't get enough; especially on those hot summer days when I don't feel like being bothered. On those day, I  almost always reach for a crisp white tee.

But back to the outfit: I don't wear my bubble necklace often but when I do, I am quickly reminded of how it can transform an outfit. I threw on my pink flats for an extra punch of color. Super simple but perfect for running around on a sunny weekend day.

Hope everyone has an amazing week! As for me, I will be counting down the days until my summer vacation (3 more weeks).

Springing Forward with Gingham

17 March 2013






Hello All & Happy St. Patty's Day! First off, let me say that I'm ready for Spring! I'm so sick of the snow!! Last week, I chose to wear a Springy outfit to beat the Winter blues. Don't let the sun fool you; it was very cold! That pile of snow behind me is still there, so depressing.... These bright emerald jeans (also featured here) were able to cheer me up and remind me that Spring is near. 

I paired them with a black and white gingham shirt and leopard flats. Gingham is my absolute favorite so get used to seeing me in this pattern a lot! They are a must have for the Spring season. I scored this gingham shirt from Old Navy for only $15!! Pretty much all my gingham shirts are from J Crew but I couldn't beat the awesome price at Old Navy. I also bought this shirt in green which will be featured very soon. If you like something, buy it in a second color. That's my motto!!

Hope everyone enjoys the upcoming week!

Polka Dots & Emerald

03 February 2013




Sweater: Old Navy (on sale)
Shirt: Ralph Lauren
Jeans: Seven for All Mankind (old)
Flats: J Crew (here)
Necklace: eBay






I must admit, I don't frequent Old Navy but I've had my eye on this polka dot sweater for months. I'm loving the polka dot trend but don't want to pay too much for a trendy piece that may not be in style next year. I've seen this sweater featured on many different blogs and instagram photos and I was smitten!!   

A few weeks ago, I stopped by my local Old Navy and was pleased to find the blue and white one for only $9.99. I paired it with my trusty striped oxford button up and a bold statement necklace. I'm loving the stripes and polka dots together and love how this outfit came together overall!! What do you think?

Seeing Green

07 January 2013


      Today's post features a very popular trend last year: colored denim! I must confess, this is my very first pair of colored denim. Yes, I know, where have I been? I've seen them in every store and thought, it's just not practical. But after the holidays, J Crew had all their colored denim on sale for $29.99 with an additional 30% off. Needless to say, I didn't have anymore excuses. I picked this amazing bright green pair because they say emerald will be the color of 2013. Plus, it's so gorgeous!!! I paired it with a chambray shirt and a statement necklace. I must say, I am loving this outfit! It made me so happy just to wear it; I couldn't help but feel cheerful all day. Silly, I know, but an outfit can do that at times!
