Shine Bright







What I'm Wearing: Skirt Silence & Noise (UO) | Shirt Free People, Similar | Jacket Mural | Shoes Lumiani

Today I decided I would channel, the always fabulous, Rihanna. This amazing letterman jacket was one of my great finds from my trip to Nordstrom the other day and when I brought it home I immediately thought of the picture of Rihanna above. So I decided I would let her be my inspiration for this super fun look. Rihanna's style is pretty impeccable, I mean she throws some crazy pieces together but always ends up looking flawless. She is definitely one of my style icons.

Monochromatic






What I'm Wearing: Jeans J Brand | Tank Wayf | Jacket Go Make Noise | Shoes Ted Baker

I hit the shopping gold mine. I found this new section in Nordstrom that was super affordable and I was able to get so much expensive looking stuff for such good prices. Like this jacket, looks expensive, kind of has a Chanel vibe going on, it was on sale for $40! So great so I put it with this patterned tank, black jeans, and my favorite flip flops ever (how cute are the bows?) to create this fun black and white look.

A Saturday Adventure and A Sunday Dream Wishlist


Alright, I know there's nothing fashionable about this, I'm wearing leggings and a tee but I had to share. My dad and I went on a hike at Buttermilk Falls in Nyack, NY, and though we got a bit lost it was tons of fun. And I do love my cute little backpack (Target) and my awesome new bright blue Nikes. 

Now onto something a bit more fashionable.



Hmm, I see a black and white trend here. I can't help it it's just so damn chic. But anyways these are items that are so beautiful and amazing and I would love to own them one day when I'm successful but for now they are far out of reach. I've been in love with the Chanel Espadrilles for a while now, that leather tip, to die for. And when I came across those amazing Chanel sneakers, the detail, no words. Yes, I'm a Chanel girl, I own nothing from them but 2 pairs of sunglasses but if I had to I could live in everything they make, so chic, so timeless, ugh. And then the blazer is French Connection. It is slightly more accessible than the Chanel shoes but still it would take some saving. But it truly is the perfect blazer, in my mind at least. So take some time to drool over these items like I have, and then tomorrow I'll tell you about the shopping gold mine I hit on Friday.

Animal Instincts






What I'm Wearing: Dress Free People, Similar | Sweater Michael Stars | Tights Betsey Johnson | Boots Steve Madden | Headband Free People

Okay, so I went a little crazy with the animal print. I can't help it it's just so fun. I love these awesome leopard print tights. And because of the crazy tights I kept it simple with a navy lace dress and a sweater. This leopard print headband is also so cute, and I love to wear it on top of my hair too, but I think that works better when my hair is curly.

Mini






What I'm Wearing: Skirt Urban OutfittersSimilar | Shirt Free People, Similar | Shoes Converse | Bracelets Alex and AniAngelique de Paris

I am loving that the sun is starting to come out in New York, I just wish it would stay. Spring is when I like to break out my skirts and dresses, so with some warm weather comes this cute little mini skirt. I paired it with a lace peplum top and to keep it more casual I threw on my converse. Some cute bracelets complete the look.

Feeling Edgy






What I'm Wearing: Leggings Free People, Similar | Shirt Free People, Similar | Skirt Silence & Noise | Boots Steve Madden | Bracelets Alex and AniAngelique de ParisFree People | Rings Alex and Ani

How cool are these leggings? I wish they still had them on the website, but I did buy them a few years ago. Anyway, I think they are so unique and cool so I paired them with just a simple oversized shirt in one of my favorite colors to wear, army green. (the color brings out my eyes) And I put a black skirt on underneath for just a little extra coverage. And I have another close-up of my jewelry today because you can see the charms on my Alex and Ani ring better, and I'm wearing this super cool aztec Free People bracelet.

All Ruffled Up






What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | Shirt Free People, SimilarSimilar | Shoes Steve Madden, Similar | Bracelets Alex and AniAngelique de Paris | Rings Tiffany&CoAlex and Ani

I am normally not a pink person, but this shirt is an exception to the rule. I love the dip dyed bottom and the ruffles at the neckline are just such a fun girly detail. And although I didn't show it in the pictures there's a snap at the neck that you can undo to wear the shirt with a lower v-neck instead of the high neck. But I prefer the higher neckline because you can really see the ruffles. And I also want to say how much I love my Alex and Ani jewelry. Though you can't see it both bracelets, and even the ring, have charms on them, all with really cool meanings. Stylish and meaningful, love it.

Denim Daze






What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | T-Shirt Vince | Shirt Free People, Similar | Shoes Toms

Denim is back. Now I'm not quite ready to embrace the denim jacket again, I'd maybe try a vest, not sure. But I do love this denim shirt. It's super casual from the front but then you turn around and it has this awesome lace panel. Perfect for these "spring" days when there's still a little chill.

White Hot







What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | T-Shirt Vince | Vest Truth and PrideSimilarSimilar | Shoes Sam Edelman | Bracelets Alex and AniMarc by Marc Jacobs | Rings Frey Wille

I spotted this vest at Bloomingdales and knew I needed to have it so I did what any person would do. I sold some stuff on ebay (this vest did not come cheap), waited for a sale, and bought it. Okay, maybe that's a bit much for one article of clothing, but I can't help it when I spot something I love I get a little obsessed. It's totally worth it, though, because now I own this gorgeous perforated leather motorcycle vest and it is going to add to many of my outfits this spring and summer. And how amazing are these Sam Edelman sandals? The mirrors and the pop of color, perfection. 

P.S. I'm sure if you can tell but, yes, I am wearing neon yellow sparkly nail polish, and I kind of love it. (Orly, Melodious Utopia)

Borrowed






What I'm Wearing: Jeans AG Jeans | Tank Gap | Blazer Ella Moss | Shoes Kate Spade | Bracelets Alex and AniMarc By Marc Jacobs | Rings Frey Wille

So, there's a story behind this blazer. What happened was I went to Bloomingdales with my mom a few weeks ago for the friends and family sale and I spotted this blazer and she told me I had to take it and try it on. So I tried it on, fell in love, but she didn't buy it for me. Instead, she bought it for herself. But I guess that's the next best option because I can still borrow it whenever I want. And I will be borrowing it a lot because it's the perfect spring blazer.
