Happy Weekend Loves! It wouldn’t be a fun weekend without a weekend wish list {click each item to shop direct}…and it’s a wish list simply because I wish all these pieces can be added to my closet but can’t 🙁 So I may as well share my favorite picks with you guys…maybe I’ll end up buying one…two…maybe three. Aren’t the best gifts the ones you give yourself? 😉

I NEED this ‘More Issues Than Vogue’ iPhone Case…1) Because hello it’s Vogue haha and 2) My iPhone deserves to switch up it’s style as often as I do, right? I’m also loving these metallic sandals from J Crew…yea yea I know everyone has been styling them on their blog, but they are kind of perfect. Comfortable, match with everything and they make a statement!

My third piece I’ll most likely make a reality instead of just a ‘wish’ this weekend? One of those great graphic tees! I love the ‘Fabulous’ tee from Old Navy…first off I was shocked it was from there…we know I love a bargain and two it’s easy to dress up or dress down for summer into fall with a chic blazer, jeans and pumps…my kind of style!

Happy Shopping <3

Paint Splatter…

Happy Friday Loves! I feel like the summer weeks are flying by and I don’t want them to leave. I had a lovely day yesterday with my new Long Island blogger friends, Sarah and Kelly…let’s just say blogging was the least of what we discussed. So it’s Sarah and Kelly’s new goal to set me up with some decent guys…I’ve never shared this but…I’ve been doing the whole online dating thing on and off for a little while now and it’s safe to say it’s been…interesting.I tend to pick the wrong guys or maybe as Carrie Bradshaw says ‘I do not pick the wrong guys, they pick me’…either way haha dating has become quite the challenge, for me at least. So while I search for Mr. Right, I will stick with talking about what I know best…fashion. My paint splattered dress was another Charlotte Russe find (did you see my neon one yesterday…I got both of these beauties, buy one get one 50% off…score). It’s no longer available but I found a similar dress at Zappos (with an amazing print!)My white cross body bag was a Saks Off Fifth find from Badgley Mischka (I found a similar one from Rebecca Minkoff) and my block sandals are from Old Navy…I love the unexpected reaction when people ask ‘where are your shoes from?’ and I respond…Old Navy 😉 (BTW they are on sale now!)Shop My Look Below<3

Happy Throwback Thursday Loves! I’m sharing another fab look from my trip to the Hamptons a few weeks ago…this neon Charlotte Russe shift dress, Rebecca Minkoff Affair Bag & my forever favorite Steve Madden Espadrille Wedges!If you are a Kardashian fan you will love to hear this…1) This photo was taken right in front of the Dash Pop-Up Shop in Southampton & 2) While I was shooting outfits in the village of Southampton, Kim, Kourtney, Kris & Khloe were having lunch, literally around the block from their pop-up shop…pretty awesome no? I knew it had to be them when I spotted guys with huge cameras everywhere…too bad they weren’t there to shoot me 😉 I love this neon dress. It’s simply gorgeous…while Charlotte Russe no longer has this exact dress I found a similar one from Dolce Vita at Zappos! My bag is from the fabulous Rebecca Minkoff…a cognac bag with neon trim? Count me in Rebecca 😉 In love with the ‘Affair’ bag! My wedges were a #FabFound find from Marshalls years ago. I love beige wedges for spring and summer…they are timeless and match with everything! That’s a win win in my book! I found a similar pair from Jildor by the fab Jimmy Choo (and they are on Sale!!)Every outfit…even neon requires some fab bling! I love layering jewels like my star necklace and skull pendant. Shop My Look Below <3

City Slickin…

Happy Humpday Loves! I’m already having a fabulous week and I am especially loving this New York weather! Yesterday I opted for a casual and comfy look while I visited the newly named ‘Anna Wintour Costume Institute’ ‘Beyond Fashion’ exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art & as if that wasn’t cool enough, my brother and I went to a taping of ‘Inside The Actor’s Studio’ featuring my #WCW (Woman Crush Wednesday…duh!) Mariska Hargitay AKA Olivia Benson from Law & Order SVU…my guilty pleasure <3 I’m having a ‘Shop Genius’ moment from Nordstrom Rack. I love a simple chambray top, especially this button down that I paired with an olive cami and white shorts from Abercrombie (which are from high school by the way…score for me, the gym is paying off!). My number one go to accessory for a day in the Big Apple is my Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote and some chic sunnies. I LOVE this bag…it’s huge enough to fit everything including the kitchen sink (which knowing me may end up in my bag haha!) and it’s classic and simple. I like adding a little edge to any look with some great aviators like these ones! My shoes are an oldie but a goodie. I bought these straw smoking slippers from…drum roll please…NY & Company over two years ago! I absolutely love these shoes, by the way NY & Company has killer shoes and they are affordable…YES! Smoking slippers are an easy way to dress up a casual ensemble…I feel like they tie a look together sometimes better than a pair of sandals can. When I’m having a simple, care free day I go for simple jewelry like my signature gold and diamonds ‘M’ initial necklace which I received from my grandmother when I was younger, but I found a similar one from Nadri at Nordstrom that I love as well 🙂 Hope you love this casual look as much as I do!

Minty Monday…

Happy Monday Loves or should I say Happy Minty Monday! I am having a total girly girl moment with this look…mint blazer, white skirt and nude accessories…nothing says chic, classy and stylish like that combination. My mint green blazer was a clearance find from H&M years ago (so happy it still looks as great as the day I first bought it!) I found a similar one from Forever 21…still an amazing deal, just what I like 😉 A white eyelet skirt is the perfect summer essential. Wear it to the office, girls night or even date night…it’s simple, easy and honestly so comfortable! I wear this skirt all the time (even in the fall and winter…winter white right?) My bag is from Target! I know, crazy right? I am really loving Target’s accessories now a days, their bags and jewels look expensive but don’t break the bank…now that’s my style (and my budget!) My mint bracelet is courtesy of Nwaobiara and my white link bracelet is from BaubleBar…I love the link bracelet trend. (BTW both bracelets retail for under $30…not kidding!)Nude pumps are the perfect transitional shoe from spring to summer to fall to winter. Nude goes with absolutely everything and for $30 you can’t go wrong with these classic Anne Klein pumps with a modern twist…studs! When I put this look on I felt like Carrie Bradshaw…it may not be tulle but for some reason this white skirt and the white crop top seemed like a look Carrie would totally rock to see Mr. Big…if only I was wearing this look to find mine haha (where are the handsome and successful single guys at?!)Shop My Look Below <3
