Today's look

It's still cold out, but, with the help of a sleeping bag coat I was able to wear a skirt today without worrying about freezing to death. Long puffy coats are not flattering but boy do they work!


Boyfriend sweater: The Limited, $55
Dot Skirt: Club Monaco, $125
Tights: Hue, $16
Boots: Naturalizer, $150

Love Me some Blanket Sweater

this sweater was on the expensive side, but I sure do get a lot of wear out of it. It's just so darn cozy. Plus it has good coverage so I can get away with jeggings at work without showing too much booty.


Sweater: Laurie B, $195
Printed Tunic: Urban Outfitters,$58
Jeggings, Juicy Coture, $125
Boots: Charles David, $250

Rocking the Bird Shirt!

So this is my first wear of the Kate Spade bird shirt. Since it's 80 below zero out I layered it with a brown turtleneck, but maybe that looks a little frumpy? I'm going to try it next tucked into a patterned skirt with navy as the main color to do that whole "mixed prints" look. Wish me luck!


Kate Spade Blouse: $265
J Crew Tissue Turtleneck: $40
Banana Republic Skinny Jeans: $80
Nine West Boots: $100ish

Barney Dress is back.

Maybe I look like Barney the Dinosaur, maybe I don't, but I can tell you that this dress is cozy and effortless for winters in New York. Not sure I'll ever get tired of this one!

BCBG sweater dress: $250
Hue tights: $16
Steve Madden boots: $120

New Skirt!

This morning started out a little funky in the outfit department. I was determined to wear this outfit...but with navy tights. You can't see it in the photo that well, but these are my olive green tights. My closet is actually clean and organized right now, and I look in all of the places I thought hey could possibly be in, but to no avail. My only thought is that Paddy, my evil little poodle, has eaten and completely digested them.

Skirt: Hype, $140
Sweater: Zara, $40
Tights: Hue, $16
Boots, Nine West, $50 on sale.

I forgot how much I loved Hype clothing until I went to their site...must collect more pieces!

Rainy Monday

Today is going to be a rainy blah Monday so I wanted to have a little fun. I looked for some color and tried to mix and match items a little. I think I turned out a cute outfit, though maybe the skirt is a tiny bit short. Oh well, I'm rocking it!

Sweater: Old Navy, $24
Denim Mini: Mossimo for Target, $25
Tights: Hue, $15
Socks: Target, $5
Boots: Charles David, $250

Rain. Blergh.

Happy Monday!

The weather is holding in the 60s so I threw on a basic outfit this morning that I knew would be cozy. I'm a little under the weather today so couldn't bother getting too fancy. Maybe tomorrow I'll be feeling better. This isn't so bad though. And I got a compliment on the blanket sweater.

Blanket Sweater: Express, $70
Printed Blouse: Banana Republic, $56
Skinny Jeans, Banana Republic, $80
Boots: Nine West, $100 ish

As far as the blouse - should I keep it? I never know if this top is cool or hideous. Would love to know what you think.

Wednesday Dinner

I took these photos before heading out for dinner - so they're not the greatest. I did one with flash and one without so you get the idea. This is my first wearing of my blanket sweater from Express. They are supposed to be a top trend this Fall/Winter and I love anything big and cozy so I'm pretty happy. And the navy sequined tank dressed it up for night. It was a great purchase - it gets tons of wear. And, if you haven't noticed, I'm already back to my fall winter staple: skinny jeans and boots. Hopefully this season I'll learn to mix it up.

Blanket Sweater: Express, $70
Sequin Tank: Express, $40

It's still cold - WTF Spring?

It's the end of April and yet it's cloudy out with gusty wind and a high of 56. Not cool, Mother Nature. Not cool. So today is about warmth and comfort, which does not always equal fashionable. Back from a long hiatus are the BR skinny jeans ($89). Paired it with a BR brown tee($35) and an army green jackety-thingy that I gout at a little boutique somewhere for just $60. I've worn it a ton of times, just always seems to come in handy. Boots are Nine West and were $100 I think.

Two more days until I get my new shopping budget. Blew April's in the first week so I haven't been shopping at all!! Proud of my restraint but ready to get a few new pieces. Any suggestions on what I should buy for summer? I NEED a pair of black work appropriate shoes, so those are a must buy. But other than that I plan to have fun!

The first day of my 37th year.

This is going to be a good year, I can feel it! Case in point, crappy weather and a late morning turned into a bad hair day, then at lunch I found a salon that does long hair blow outs for $29. That, my friends, is a gift from on high for sure.

Today's outfit features a new jacket from Anthropologie. I usually don't shop there - has a bit of a "I do crafts on the weekends" vibe which is not me, but they did have a lot of fun little pieces in the window so I popped in. Got two items - will wear one tomorrow - and this jacket you see today. Thought this was a really versatile piece. Wear with jeans, over a little LBD, with a skirt. And it was on sale!

BR light was skinny jeans ($89)

Nine West black sleeveless tee ($80)
