Flower Child




I am so excited that it is finally getting warmer in NY. I desperately needed some
Spring in my step (after a cold and wet previous week) so I ended up reaching for
my Spring must have blazer sooner than expected.  Although I still had to pair it with
a sweater, it felt good to leave my winter coat behind, my toes were less lucky.

I automatically reached for this blazer as soon as it caught my eye. I tend to gravitate
towards colors  and girlier patterns and this happened to embody all of the things I love,
or maybe I just wanted something that screamed SPRING. What are some of things
 that you're craving this season?

My favorite pass time is hiding out in a café by the window with a  cup of green
 tea and some yummy macaroons (pistachio and coconut are my favorite).
Instantly brightens up my day and makes me feel relaxed and happy. I love
popping into Financier, as it is just a quick spring from home.
What are some of the places you go to unwind?

That '70s Show

 
Happy Monday dolls!
 

It has been far too long since I've worn any type of bell bottom jeans and when
I stumbled on a pair that I used to love, I decided to recreate a modern take on
the ‘70s look. Sometimes it’s nice to go back in time. It brought all kinds of fun
memories from TV shows, one in particular.

 
So here is my nod to the 70s. What do you guys think?
 
On an unrelated note, does anyone have a direct line to Spring? I think it's time
she visit NY, just saying.
Been wanting to wear this blazer for a while now and finally was able to mix
 it with another recent print purchase. I think it gives it a little more sass.
 
On that note, I wish you a fabulous week!

Downtown Chic


Happy Friday!

This has been one of my favorite looks because it was so easy and
effortless yet it looks put together. My favorite outfits are often those
that take the least amount of time.

 
For me, blazers are a staple. It’s one of those items I always reach for no matter
what season or occasion and I pack a few when traveling. It’s a simple way to
spruce up any outfit. It also comes in handy between those weird seasonal
transitions such as now.
 
The key is to keep it fun and youthful by mixing a bit of color, in this case I went with the
 wine tights and a blossom blouse. The bags chain gives it a bit of playfulness and glamour.
 

 
What do you guys think?

Back to Basics

I have been on such a color/pattern ramp as of late that
I forgot just how much a love jeans.


I go through these stages where I live in my jeans and tees and then all
of a sudden I forget about them for a while. Does that ever happen to you?
 I guess I'm back to my jean days but it was a bit too cold for a tee.
 
I kept it close to home nonetheless, by adding a touch of color and some polka dots.
 

 
Adding on to my Kate Spade clutch collection, is this silly cuteness.

1985 Feathers


I've been sulking after this skirt since December but couldn't find my size
and just when I gave up all hope, there it was waiting for me this past weekend.


I love mixing edgier pieces (like the cocktail disco ball ring) with more softer pieces
(like the pearl flower ring) to create the perfect balance.

So here we are at last, me and my feathers.
And this is what happens to your shoes when you
get too close to a concrete wall

Thank you so much for all your love and support. Nothing
makes my day more then reading your comments!
