Happy Tuesday Loves! Can you tell I was listening to Destiny’s Child while writing this post? ‘Say My Name’ is one of my favorite songs and my other bit of inspiration for this post was Bravo’s new series called ‘Jersey Belle’ where Jersey native Jaime Primak Sullivan leaves the world of cannolis and the Sopranos for the preppy and fully monogrammed town of Mountain Brook, Alabama. I love how there was an entire episode just about how much southern women love their monograms. Bath towels, shirts, even underwear…all with their monograms…a little overboard, but nonetheless I’m kind of obsessed myself!
Shop Dandy has all the monogramed pieces you are craving (they are a Southern boutique, so it’s only fitting they stock up on monograms!). I bought this lucite pencil holder (which I so cleverly turned into a places to store my makeup brushes) and an oversized signature key ring…it solved the whole loosing my keys in my oversized purse problem instantly 😉
I also love C wonder for great monogrammed pieces. I’ve gotten signature cuffs and jewelry boxes from them. Helps me remember who I am on days that I get so busy I practically loose my mind 😉 I also love Graphic Image New York / GiGi NY for some great leather and monograms…clutches, planners and phone cases…all with my stamp of approval, my initials <3

Winter White!
So it may be a so called fashion ‘faux pas’ to where white in the fall and winter seasons, but as you may know, I have a thing for breaking the rules. Neon in winter, never wearing tights, a faux fur vest in the summer…I tend to wear what I want when I want haha 😉 That’s why I was so excited to wear white jeans in the white snow!
I finally embraced the winter wonderland outside and so did my sister (my photographer) who had a little too much fun writing cute things in the snow during this shoot! I’m wearing these great fitting ‘Rockstar Jeans‘ from Old Navy, fringed Isola wedged boots (scored on sale at 6pm.com), my new GiGi NY hot pink clutch with my initials, an easy chiffon blouse from Old Navy and some C. Wonder and Nordstrom bling…topped off with Urban Outfitters sunnies!
I love this look because it is great for work or play and it is simple and easy. I also love the black and white look with a pop of pink…I love a great ‘Pop Of Color‘ any chance I get! The winter season tends to get me a little down, but a cute outfit can instantly lift my mood and my attitude…snow and cold? No problem…nothing a little fashion and style can’t fix 😉

‘Lust vs Must’ – Oversized Cuff
‘I’m not afraid to admit it, I dream of Hermes…One day I’m convinced I will have a closet filled with priceless Birkins and Hermes accessories, but until then, a ‘Lust vs Must’ is in order. One piece I love from Hermes that I see tons of ladies wearing is the signature ‘H’ cuff which retails at around $750….yea a bit steep if you ask me. So me being a chick who looks for great deals for similar styles, fell in love when I spotted this Initial Enamel Cuff from C Wonder.

Personal Touches

Pave Initial Disc Pendant from BaubleBar
Nothing is quite as meaningful as a personalized gift. Engraving someones name or initials whether it’s jewelry, a book, a tech item or anything for that matter gives that little extra touch to show that the gift your giving had a lot of thought put into it.
I personally love having something unique to me…something no one else will have because it was personalized to my liking. Small or big, now-a-days every retailer is offering ‘personalization’ options to which consumers can make the item they are purchasing truly their own!
Here are some of my favorite personalized pieces for the season (and there after):
1) Classic Script Monogram Necklace $100 (Available at BaubleBar)
2) Sarah Chloe ‘Elle Bangle’ (Personalized to you preference) $129 (Available at BaubleBar)
3) Rhinestone Initial Mug $14.99 (Numerous color options) (Available: here)
4) Monogram iPhone 5 Case (Numerous options available; size, color, font etc.) (Available: Zazzle)
5) Gigi New York Personalized ‘Clutch’ $105 (Comes in numerous colors) (Available: Gigi)
