What a weekend…now it’s time for those dreaded Monday blue’s…however I’m trying to brighten up this Monday with a little blogging because come on…when doesn’t a style post cheer you up? 🙂
I was so excited to style this South Parade top that I got while attending the Dietch PR Fall / Winter 2014 Press Preview in NYC a week ago! It’s super soft, comfortable and of course…stylish! You can dress it up, dress it down or in my case sass it up with some fun pumps and polka dots!
I’m embracing color in preparation for my trip to California for Lucky Fabb West 2014! This, I believe will be one of the many…and I mean many looks I will be packing for my 4 day trip! I’m already prepping myself for my luggage being overweight at the airport but I’m a firm believer in the fact that you can never be too prepared for what’s to come. I have quite the itinerary planned for my Cali trip, and the right outfit is always essential!
While it’s rainy and dreary in the big apple today, this look can brighten up any day. I’m probably one of the few gals who dares to wear a lime green moto jacket but let me tell ya…it’s head turning 😉 What girl doesn’t like to make a statement! In addition, spicing the look up with white jeans and mirrored sunnies is suiting for a walk down Rodeo Drive don’t ya think?
I got this Karen Kane jacket gifted to me and I love it. It’s unique, different and neon…all of my favorite things wrapped into one stylish look! When I slip it on I feel kind of bad ass…all I’m missing is my bike 😉 Maybe one day right? Anyways, in addition to neon, a fashion item I will always be a fan of is a crisp pair of white jeans. Once you find the right pair that flatters your figure, they are sexy with just about everything and yes, I break fashion rules by wearing white jeans year round…oops!
Fashion is all about breaking the rules and finding your own personal style. You know what flatters your body, you know what works and what doesn’t. I believe that following the trend isn’t always ideal because not every trend works for every girl. I will always love neon while other gals may hate it. I will never rock a crop top because hey I am not a twig, and flared jeans simply don’t look as fabulous on me as they do on Rachel Zoe. Pick and choose wisely…every trend is open to interpretation 🙂

Happy Monday Fashion Lovers! I feel like a brand new woman this morning because I officially have 20/20 vision! No more fumbling with contacts or getting dry eyes…this chick can see clearly now and I’ve never been happier 🙂
I love this look because why not start the week off with a bang! I love a cute faux fur vest and even more so, I love a little leopard…it’s sexy, fierce and fun…you can’t beat that combination! I scored this Karen Kane vest on clearance two years ago at Lord & Taylor and still wear it religiously from season to season…not only does it keep me warm, it’s as chic as can be.
Another piece I loveeee about this look is this Michael Kors bag. As I was putting outfits together for future blog posts I found this gem in my closet and totally forgot purchasing it (#bloggerproblems). I bought this over the summer because it reminded me of the gorgeous Stella McCartney bag {Here} I wanted that I simply wasn’t ready to splurge on yet, and honestly this Michael Kors bag does just the trick and it is simply stunning for work or play!
In addition to the perfect bag, the outfit wouldn’t be complete without these fabulous nude booties from Nine West. They are comfortable, stylish and make me feel even more feisty in this simple ensemble 😉
I feel like I’m finally ready to take the world by storm, so excuse me while I prance around NYC with perfect vision 🙂

Nothing sucks more than a dreary, rainy day in NYC…it totally brings down your mood, puddles everywhere and usually an excuse to dress cozy and warm rather than fun and flirty. So in order to brighten up on this rainy day I bring you some color inspiration thanks to Karen Kane, Nine West and Hue jeggings.
Yes, you caught me, I’m not rocking this colorful ensemble today…simply for the sole fact that I think if I wore this today the ladies in my office would think I had my seasons mixed up, but still I try to always incorporate color into my everyday outfits! This outfit however I love! I spotted this adorable Karen Kane hot pink moto vest on their website and had to have it…because what girl doesn’t like sporting a little pink every now and again?!
I always try to break up the color with some darker, neutral tones, like these great olive colored jeggings from Hue. If you haven’t tried jeggings or Hue…your seriously missing out on life. They fit any figure like a glove and are reasonably priced. Best part? They come in numerous styles, textures, colors and lengths…making them literally perfect for any girl! They are great to move around in whether it’s at the office, at a club…or simply running around town on a busy day.
Another part I love about this outfit? These Nine West gray pumps with neon pick lining and sole. Something I love about all my clothes, shoes and accessories, is that they all have a little story behind them…these babies are no exception. I scored these limited edition ‘Cameron Silver for Nine West‘ pumps for FREE..yes people free, during there Rockefeller Center store re-launch. I was one of the first 9 people at the store when they opened and received a $100 Nine West gift card which of course I used to purchase hot pink shoes because seriously when else does an opportunity arise to score hot pink pumps for free? Uhh never! Also, Cameron, the designer is incredibly social on social media…making me love him even more every time I wear and post his fabulous shoes!
Anyways, I’m off to another busy day at the FFANY office! Don’t let the rain get ya down and shop my ‘Splash Of Color’ look below 🙂

Brrrr….It’s cold in here there must be some chambray in the atmosphere…sorry I had to do that but anyways, point is, it is freezing and snowing in NYC! Of course these photos were taken when it was actually sunny and bearable outside, but this outfit can be worn for any temperature depending on how you style it.
One of the things I love about Chambray is the fact that you can dress it up or down just by pairing it with different outfits. I love this look, a simple pair of gray Abercrombie pants (while I used to feel Abercrombie was soo middle school, I’m actually loving their pants…they fit great and are always on sale!), a chic faux fur vest from H&M, a simple pair of black shooties from Nine West and to add a little extra ‘Pop Of Color’, a red ‘Mini Mac’ bag from Rebecca Minkoff.
I love adding a little extra color to any outfit…what girl doesn’t want to stand out? Another great thing about this look? It’s makes for a great ‘Day to Night’ transition…after a long day at the office this look is perfect for any happy hour!
On a side note, this is my first post of 2014! I can’t believe it’s already January and already a brand new calendar year…is it just me or did 2013 fly by? Well, one of my New Year’s resolutions? Keep up the blogging and hopefully reach an even bigger audience than I already have!
