Black and White Stripes

Staying fashionable and warm is providing to be difficult but I am

up for the challenge. Choosing spring pieces and incorporating them into

the winter wardrobe is the only thing keeping me out of the winter rut at this

point. It makes me feel a bit more excited for the spring ahead. Somehow pulling

on sweaters this late in the game just depresses me, but I’ll see if I can turn that

around next week. Let’s just say I’m glad brunch was 10 steps away because

I was regretting my choice of wear 2 minutes in.

Be My Valentine

Instead of going the usual red/pink route, I decided to play with some blush tones.

The inspiration was definitely my new Chloe bag. Since the skirt is so girly,

I thought an art print dress (worn as shirt) and a leather like jacket would add

a bit of edge creating the best of both worlds. Surprisingly the end result

made me feel more romantic than a red dress ever did.

I hope everyone enjoyed their Valentine’s and weekend.

Tuxedo Jacket

I'll keep this sweet and short as my mind swirls over my constant obsession over

Olympics, cracking my brain for what to get my guy for V-Day, all meanwhile

getting impatient with this cold.

Hope your week is off to a great start, stay warm!

Wild Child

Cold, rain, snow, dark, grey are just some of the words I’d use to describe

New York right about now. As we all await the first signs of spring, all

awhile reaching for rain boots and black, more black,

I’m trying to not get to caught up in the darkness of it all.

So here are a few positive things:

(1) Valentine’s Day – a cheesy excuse to dress up, spend an exurbanite

amount of money on a dinner that is somewhere between

mediocre and plain unacceptable (although this time I hope

to break the pattern by going to the new Soho location for Laduree).

(2) Laduree has opened in Soho. Major yelp and a little dance. Refer to #1. Ok, so I have been dreaming of buying a ticket to Paris for many reason but in particular, to visit my all-time favorite place on earth, Laduree. New York it’s about time we open one that has a tea room and all of the delicious, mouthwatering pastries that I stuffed my face with in Paris and London.

(3) Winter Olympics – the perfect excuse to convince myself that I’m purely staying home to watch the games and not at all out of laziness/hibernation. On the downside, it does make me feel like I should go to the gym, run or climb something instead. But we are getting off course here.
