Happy Monday! I am so ready to start a fresh new week after an exhausting weekend of apartment hunting in LA. Luckily after searching high and low I have exciting news to report…I found my dream apartment!! The building and it’s ameneties are to die for and the apartment itself is pure bliss…I can’t wait to move in and start the decorating progress (which I will chronicle here on the blog of course). If you told me a year ago I would start pinning away interior design inspo and then actually use some of that inspiration to help decorate my very own apartment in Los Angeles I wouldn’t believe you…well here it is…it’s happening! Crazy I know…

Another week has flown by…I can’t believe it is almost the end of January…and that my trip to Disney is just days away (yes I keep talking about it because I am SO EXCITED to see Mickey, Minnie + the gang!). A little fun fact about me? I am a kid at heart…I love amusement parks, roller coasters, animated movies and of course child like food (popcorn, chicken fingers and macaroni and cheese are my obsessions…if only I could live on an island with those foods…I’d be set for life lol!)…so it’s no surprise that I am beyond thrilled to head back to Disney…I haven’t been there since I was 14 years old so it is truly about damn time I go back!Speaking of being a kid at heart…I can’t help but have a thing for easy, simple outfits that keep me warm and cozy on chilly winter days! I have been having a love affair with faux fur vests for a while now, but decided it was time to cheat on them with this new shearling coat (which is beyond snuggly and warm btw). Since Friday’s in my mind are meant to be casual I had to rock some comfy skinny jeans like these.
To keep things simple I opted for a nice horizontal bar necklace that is a delicate and easy piece to layer for any occasion and of course some ‘Cat Eye’ inspired sunnies from J Crew (I actually snagged them on clearance for $12!) One of my casual ‘go to’ bags is my Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag. It’s an easy transition from day to night which is the ideal bag for any Friday! And now to my favorite part of today’s look…my casual leopard print slip on sneakers because like a kid…I like to wear fun new sneakers! hehe

Brrrrr…It is FREEZING here in New York and yesterday we had our first real snow fall of the season which naturally I was ill equipped for. Commuting to work everyone work snow boots and hats…me? I wore slip on sneakers and left the hat at home (I tend to never dress weather appropriate what can I say). Today’s post was shot a few days before Christmas but I actually for once dressed warm enough that I wasn’t shivering cold while shooting! So I am making progress slowly but surely 😉And yes…it’s winter and I am wearing white (despite the fashion rule ‘No White After Labor Day’ I wear white skinny jeans ALL the time!) Today’s look is simple and easy…perfect for work AND play! A tan button down cardigan is a winter ‘must have’, it’s ideal for layering plus it’s an easy no brainer to throw on in the morning over a blouse when it’s chilly.I have become slightly obsessed with scarves this winter and the one I am wearing today is my FAVORITE! I love the plaid design and the fringed ends…it’s so warm and cozy it feels like home <3Now to break down the shoes, bag + sunnies. I got these J Crew sunglasses a few months ago and love them as a great alternative to my usual go to sunnies…my mirrored aviators. These C Wonder block heel booties are the most comfortable boots I own. The stacked block heel adds extra support and the rubber bottoms make them super easy to walk in (something that is quite important when commuting into NYC). PS these booties are on sale now for under $75!And last but not least…the premiere of my new Gucci Soho Tote! I’ve been wearing it for a few weeks now and now I get to share similar bags with you below (I scored mine at Saks Fifth Avenue + you can call to ask your local store if they have it in stock because it is no longer online).Stock up on these great winter pieces below for amazing prices (even the Gucci bags are on sale).| Click To Shop My Look |
