So as any of you who follow my Instagram may know, last week I went on my first ever trip to Las Vegas! First of all, it was my first time on an airplane since I was 5 so when I got to the airport not wearing socks and not thinking to weigh my luggage ahead of time, I was in for a few surprises haha!

I went to Vegas for work and not play unfortunately, the FFANY gals were there to work on our charity venture QVC Presents FFANY ‘Shoes On Sale’ by meeting new contacts and soliciting for donations! May I just say everything in Vegas is over the top and huge including the trade shows, you can walk forever in the different halls.

We even got to visit the Zappos headquarters…must say it was pretty awesome to see how they revolutionized downtown Las Vegas…all thanks to shoes and some other amazing items!

Naturally my favorite part of the trip was the weather. Palm trees everywhere, sunny skies and an opportunity for me to wear dresses and sandals! 🙂 It was quite the escape from the bitter polar vortex in NYC! We stayed at the Bellagio, which made for tons of photos. Whether it was the botanical garden, the lovely shops or the fountains and pools, I was snapping pictures everywhere!

Of course it wouldn’t have been a proper trip to Vegas without bringing home a little souvenier. While I left the snowglobes, pens and hats for my little sister, I opted to bring home a little something special…a new Tiffany and Co. bracelet I’ve been lusting after for a while. You can shop it –> HERE.

In my mind, the best gifts are the ones you give yourself… 😉

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 🙂

Blue & Stripes

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!
