Mint & Polka Dots

April 8, 2014

11 Comments

I love the fact that I can actually wear my spring and summer outfits here in LA 🙂 This look is from my first day here in sunny California when Kristi and I were running all around town for different fashion related events. As you may know, I love a pop of color and this outfit has two…my Steve Madden neon lime bag I scored at TJ Maxx for $20 and my mint green H&M blazer I found on the clearance rack for $10 two years ago!

Funny how some of my favorite pieces weren’t ones that cost a fortune at a high end department store 😉

Denim & Neon

March 28, 2014

5 Comments

Spring in my book means short skits, denim jackets, casual looks and a little neon…and this #ootd is just that. It’s the perfect ‘Casual Friday’ ensemble that is chic, easy and stylish. It’s no surprise that spring and summer are my two favorite seasons, 1) because I have an unhealthy obsession with skirts and dresses and 2) because I LOVE sandals and wedges…sorry winter but boots have just never been my thing…I like to show off my cute pedicure year round 🙂

When I put on this outfit, all I wanted to do was go for a casual stroll in the park and relax, I think I’m getting into the whole ‘laid back’ mood in preparation for my first ever trip to California next week for Lucky Fabb West! I am beyond excited to network and meet tons of fashion bloggers like myself on the West Coast while learning from the best of the best in the blogging and media industry…talk about a once in a lifetime experience!

I’m flying out on Wednesday and I am actually staying in LA with another lovely fashion blogger and also my friend Kristi of ‘Currently Crushing‘! Talk about the perfect fashion trip! While she has coordinated my entire schedule (she is keeping me busy, that’s for sure lol!) I absolutely can’t wait to simply have some fun in the sun! One of my must have’s that’ll be in my suitcase is of course, my denim jacket.

I’ve had this baby since freshman year of college and it has never let me down. Layer it over a sundress, cute tank or just about anything and it gives off that ‘chill’ vibe while still looking chic and well put together. Another essential I’ll be bringing to Cali is the perfect neon bag…nothing stands out on Rodeo Drive like a lime green purse right? 😉 I’m hoping to get spotted by TMZ, Harvey call me haha!

Flower Power!

With the weather finally starting to feel like spring, I decided it was about time to start embracing one of my favorite things about my spring wardrobe…flowers! When you think spring you most likely think florals…and in my case neon! I love this look because it is fun, casual and it is the perfect weekend outfit.

This shirt is an oldie but a goodie, scored on clearance at Abercrombie a year ago and to freshen it up I added a white quilted vest from Old Navy. Pair it with some skinny jeans, Steve Madden cognac wedges and a bright neon bag and your ready to take spring head on 😉

I always like to dress in a way that’s fun, easy and flirty…a look almost every fashionista can pull off! Plus, one of the best parts about spring is being able to wear color and brighten up everyone’s day with a little neon. On a side note, I’m super happy it’s Friday, TGIF! I am so ready for a relaxing weekend of boot camp classes, spinning classes (wish me luck it’ll be my first time!) and some blog photos! Hopefully the weather holds up so I can do some more spring outfit posts without totally freezing my butt off! Wish me luck 🙂

A Mint Monday

February 24, 2014

So it may still be winter in NYC but I just came back from Vegas where there was nothing but sunny skies and palm trees…putting me in the mood to post a bright and minty fresh outfit 😉 (get it mint…minty fresh haha)!

Something I learned is that whenever I wear a bright color my mood is instantly lifted…I feel like a new person and it’s as if all eyes are on me…because when doesn’t a little neon grab your attention? I scored this chic blazer on clearance for $10 at H&M a year ago and I must say it always makes a statement. I paired it with a flirty polka dot skirt, my fav Prabal Gurung for Target heels and my trustee Rebecca Minkoff ‘mini mac bag‘. This bag is perfect for anything…it’s my go to 🙂

I also love these heels because they are not only stylish, but super comfortable and can go with a dress, skirt, jeans, shorts or just about anything! They were one of my go to shoes for Vegas although I spent the whole trip working :/…safe to say I can’t wait to go back for some true fun in the sun and in the casino! I was in Vegas on business but next time it will definitely be for some pleasure!

Here’s to wishing for some warmer weather so I can actually wear an outfit like this to work rather than just for playing dress up on the weekends 🙂
