Lemon Lime

March 31, 2014

2 Comments

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 🙂

For once I’m actually rocking my blog look as my #ootd or ‘Outfit Of The Day’! It is freezing in NYC and that means times for a sweater, warm pants, boots and of course a cute quilted vest! Today is my last day in the FFANY office before I jet off to my first ever trip to Las Vegas tomorrow morning and I am beyond excited!!

First off, I’m hoping I can leave the snow at home and prepare for some fun in the sun (in between work hours of course 😉 ) and I am itching to get back to wearing my spring into summer wardrobe…I’m hiding sweaters and boots in the back of my closet this week!

I haven’t been on a vacation, let alone traveled in forever…so not only is this a great work experience but a great life experience for me as well…I’m told Vegas is an adult’s playground and of course the advice from my mom ‘go to the buffets that’s the best part of vegas’…as you can guess my mom isn’t a party person or a gambler, so naturally breakfast, lunch and dinner was her favorite part of Vegas. I’m just excited to see tons of neon, bright lights and to take some awesome pictures with my new camera! Also, I’ll be staying at the Bellagio…so some outfit pictures in front of the fountains are definitely in order!

Today’s outfit is warm, cozy and casual since I have tons of last minute things to do before heading off for the city of sin! I have a thing for brightening up my ordinary outfits with fun accessories, so something I was lusting after for a while was ‘mirrored sunglasses‘…while the Ray Ban version costs over $100, I scored these chic sunnies at Urban Outfitters for a mere $15…now that’s a steal!

I had to add an extra ‘Pop Of Color‘ as my style crush Brad Goreski would say, and I decided to rock my quilted blue bag as a clutch with this outfit! A chic blue bag is the perfect accessory and a little cobalt will never go out of style ladies!

A Date Night ‘Must’ – Envelope Clutch

February 5, 2014

My Perfect ‘Date Night’ Envelope Clutch from Target!

While I am a big bag kind of girl (obsessed with my Louis Vuitton NeverFulls), there comes a time when a lady wants to be a little chic and carry a simply yet elegant bag that has just enough room for the ‘basic necessities’…I.E the Envelope Clutch!

I believe the ‘Envelope Clutch’ is a fashion staple every fashionista should own. It’s simple and chic, perfect for your ID, Credit Card, Lipstick, Mascara and your keys…what else can a girl ask for? Now while I lust after some serious beauties…Prada, Chanel, Gucci, you get the idea, I certainly can’t afford them, so I scored my perfect clutch on clearance at Target months ago! Don’t fret, with the help of Polyvore, I rounded up some of my favorite animal print inspired clutches for the perfect girls night out or date night.

While envelope clutches are chic no matter what the design, I love a fun animal print to bring out your inner diva! What fashionista doesn’t love a little animal print, come on!

Here’s my roundup of great animal print clutches that are sure to spice up your night 😉

Birthday Moment!

February 3, 2014

1 Comment

Well in case you din’t know, today is my birthday! Yes people I’m the big 22…getting so old (yea right lol!) While I don’t have some big birthday bash like Howard Stern had planned, (by the way I’m a huge Howard fan, and that Birthday Show was insane) I am excited to spend a nice night with my boyfriend and have a great dinner followed by a serious chocolate overload because we are heading to Max Brenner in NYC!

If you haven’t heard of this place google it, I’ve passed it and dreamt of eating there and now is my chance 🙂 yay! They are known for their delicious desserts and gourmet chocolate and you know I’ll be having that as my appetizer, entree and dessert haha!

Every year on my birthday I like to reflect back on where I am this year. At this time last year I turned 21…I was a senior in college, Free Lancing for Footwear News, single and working like a maniac two part time jobs to be able to afford my 21st birthday bash I was planning. This year: I’m a college graduate, I work full time in NYC doing a job I love and I have a great boyfriend who I love spending my time with…I’d say turning 22 has brought some pretty awesome things to me.

Naturally, a birthday wouldn’t be a birthday without a cute outfit! Duh! So I’ll be wearing something similar to this look (Stay tuned for pictures from tonight’s outfit & full details on this look!) I found these Michael Kors shoes on clearance at Lord & Taylor and fell in love! Can’t wait to have my Carrie Bradshaw moment tonight in these beauties! 🙂

Which brings me to the best birthday gift I got from my parents, my own Canon camera perfect for blogging 🙂 Thanks mom and dad! Can’t wait to snap pictures all over the place! Now just to find the perfect camera bag…hmmm always thinking of things to shop for 😉
