In The Village…

Happy Thursday Lovers! Today’s post has a fun backdrop because I teamed up with Perrier water to promote their new ‘street art’ inspired bottle design! I searched high and low on Long Island to find some funky street art and bam I found it…in the village…Huntington Village that is! When I hear the term ‘street art’ I would naturally gravitate towards NYC, Brooklyn or Queens, but my lovely Long Island surprised me with this awesome artwork painted on the side of a bar a half hour from my house. This is one village that isn’t part of the Manhattan social scene, but it definitely is the party time hot spot on the island!It was freezing when I shot this look…like the first day of winter cold…and this was two weeks ago…do you feel my pain yet? So over the cold and the season just started! While I am not a fan of winter weather, something I am a fan of is faux fur vests like this one from Karen Kane (similar available from Chicwish here). I love adding a faux fur vest to any look…what gal doesn’t want to feel edgy, feisty and fabulous right?I wore a simple white Old Navy sweater under the vest…black and white…you can never go wrong…oh yeah and I added some bling: Elephant Necklace & Initial Triangle Necklace (both of which make amazing gifts btw!) As for my arm party…I always gravitate towards my gold Michael Kors watch and this simple Marc Jacobs disc bangle. These pieces of bling go with any outfit and are perfect for fall layering! So in addition to my white sweater and my black faux fur vest another fall essential that I am all about is vegan leather leggings like these ones I’m wearing from Lysse! They are super comfortable, totally on trend and best of all? They can be dressed up or down something I am always about 😉 Once again…mirrored aviators and the new Perrier Street Art water bottles!I bought this Louis Vuitton Neverfull as a Christmas gift to myself last year (hey that’s what happens when you get bad holiday gifts…prevent that by shopping my holiday gift guides here, here & here. And these shoes are definitely a favorite of mine for fall. I have worn them a few times both with skirts and with pants: here, here & here….what can I say when I find a pair of comfortable and stylish shoes, I stick with them!P.S. I have an extra way to keep you warm and fuzzy…a NEW Giveaway started yesterday 😉 Check out details and Enter below <3| *Click To Shop My Look* |

TGIF! It’s been a long week my loves and the shot above shows exactly how I feel now…ready for a nice, relaxing weekend…sometimes after a hectic week it’s necessary to be able sit back and just live in the moment (so hard to do not going to lie…but I try). Fall means many things to me…one of my favorites? It’s finally time to wear my beloved faux fur vests from Karen Kane like the black one I am wearing today! This vest is no longer available from Karen Kane but I found a similar one from Express here. My white button down blouse and reptile printed pants are both from Old Navy! They are from a year ago so the styles have changed, so I found great alternatives from GUESS and Banana Republic here & here.Now to break down my shoes, accessories and bling…My black leather bucket bag is vintage Coach from my mama…I tend to enjoy raiding her handbag collection every now and then…oops (insert monkey covering it’s face emoji…can I just say I wish emojis could be inserted on the computer and within my blog posts…they would totally add to the tone of the post right?!). Payless always has me covered when it comes to footwear trends on a budget. Open toe booties with a wooden heel are very ‘in’ for fall…they are the perfect casual shoe for fall and I got them for a steal. I found similar ones here from Dolce Vita since I believe these Payless ones are no longer available.My gold Kendra Scott ‘Ivy’ bracelet was a gift from the Kendra Scott team at NYFW at the Reward Style party and it is stunning as you can see. I never tend to wear red nail polish but I caved in for one week only and I’m kind of warming up to the idea of red nails…for some reason red nail polish reminds me of something an older mature woman would wear…I’m mature butttt I have my immature moments 😉 Now I’m off to some weekend planning…and outfit shoot planning…blogging never sleeps and apparently neither do I haha But when you do something you love it doesn’t feel like work right?Shop My Look<3

This is one of my favorite outfits on the blog to date! As you know by now…color is a key part of my wardrobe and when I am feeling extra glamorous, I have a thing for faux fur, so when I put this outfit on I was in heaven!

I looked in the mirror and had a Carrie Bradshaw moment thinking all I needed was a girls night out with some cosmos and I am ready to go 😉 I have been walking a fine line this winter between wanting to dress warm and cozy but also wanting to look sexy and trendy…this look went for the later. I can assure you that I can’t walk out of the house in just this (yes, I actually have to wear a coat ugh, but as long as it’s Michael Kors I suppose I’ll survive lol), but once I get to where I’m going, this outfit is simply stunning.

One of my favorite things about my wardrobe and this outfit is that every piece is affordable…I never splurge except for on handbags ( hence my Louis Vuitton obsession), but when it comes to clothes, in order to have more options, I often times shop the sale and clearance section and that’s how every piece in this outfit cam about (minus the clutch…that’s a slightly different story 😉 )!

This clutch was given to me by my mom who received it from her mother as a gift from Louis Vuitton in Paris so it’s pretty legit, every time I wear it my mom never hesitates to remind me the history of it and ‘You better not loose it’! Well so far I haven’t and because i love it so much I had to add it to the glitz and glamour of this outfit!
