A Little Leopard Makes Everything Better

in

To me there is something about a leopard coat that just makes any outfit look complete.

coat- Cupcakes & Cashmere, turtleneck- H&M, skirt- LOFT, tights- LOFT, shoes- Sam Edelman

No matter if I’m going to work, have a date night out with my husband, or am just running around the neighborhood in jeans…this faux fur leopard coat makes everything look chic.

Not to be overshadowed by my coat, these Sam Edelman Lug Sole Loafers are one of my favorite pairs of shoes that I own. Super comfortable and now wayyyyy on sale they are definitely worth the purchase! I feel like they go with just about everything. Also, they remind me of the shoes Elaine used to wear on Seinfeld which just makes me so happy.

I want to know what are your favorite go to items in your wardrobe???

French Toast & Gingham

in

My favorite brunch buddy, Nicole, joined me for some out of this world French toast this morning. So happy to have stopped by La Petite Joie in Williamsburg to finally check it out. If you are in the area you gotta check out this place. I’ll definitely be going back soon!

The décor of this little restaurant was so adorable. Beautiful flower displays inside and out. Such a great backdrop for a little impromptu photoshoot.

Spending my extra long weekend (I’m off work until Wednesday, yay!) by enjoying my neighborhood on the second last weekend of the summer. Hitting up some new restaurants, doing a little shopping, spending quality time with my husband and pup, and hanging out with some friends. Doesn’t get much better than that, am I right?

What are your weekend plans???

A Summer Look & A Fluffy Pup

in

Hello readers! It’s been a hot second since my last “outfit post”…and this ball of fluff is the reason why. If you’ve been following me on IG you know that back in April we welcomed this little cavapoo who we named Freddie into our home, our lives, and our heart. It’s been a whirlwind…full of puppy insanity. I’ve hardly been wearing anything cute due to worrying that he’ll rip and ruin anything I have on, and don’t get me on the limited time I have had for hair and makeup. However, I thought this simple and colorful summer look was too cute not to share. Also…how cute is Freddie here???

Top: LOFT, Jeans: Madewell, Sandals: Birkenstock, Purse: Rebecca Minkoff (similar as pink is no longer available)

I love a peplum top…and this one has the happiest print I’ve ever seen. I think it looks adorable paired with a good pair of jeans. One of my favorite styles of denim is the Stovepipe jeans at Madewell. They fit so well and the denim is so soft. They are available in regular sizes as well as plus, petite, curvy, and tall…so there is a fit for everybody! They also come in a variety of washes. Adding a few pops of colors (my purse and sandals) just pulls this all together, don’t you think?

Freddie loves going to the park and saying hi to literally every single dog he sees. He’s super happy and super crazy. Be sure to follow his wild antics on his IG: FreddieFluffyPants

I want to hear from you. How is your summer going???

94th Academy Awards: What I Hope They Wear

in

Another year, another award show…another red carpet. I have to say that the Academy Awards is typically one of my favorites. The Oscars is all about glamour, and in my mind the more glamourous the outfit the better! Here are my picks for what I really hope the stars wear tonight.

Jessica Chastain in Christian Dior, Fall 2022 RTW

Kristen Stewart in Badgley Mischka, Fall 2022 RTW

Penelope Cruz in Badgley Mischka, Fall 2022 RTW

Lady Gaga in Valentino, Spring 2022 Couture

Tracee Ellis Ross in Valentino, Spring 2022 Couture

Jennifer Garner in Jenny Packham, Fall 2022 RTW

What styles, designers, and colors do you hope to see your favorite celebrities wearing tonight?

Pops of Color

in

It’s no secret that the majority of my wardrobe is black…and I love it that way. Call it being lazy…call it being practical…call it being a New Yorker. But adding pops of color in your outwear and accessories makes everything so much more fun. Don’t you agree?

Adding some color really adds something special to any look. I have long black coats, black purses, and the same Sam Edelman Chelsea boots in black…but I felt like standing out today, just a little bit.

What I adore about this bag is the practicality of it. Crossbody bags are always high on the list of my favorite things…but this one has a removeable crossbody strap so you have different options on how you wear it.

Running to grab some coffee in the early morning was never so effortless yet so pulled together. I’m obsessed with teddy bear coats in general…but this pink one just screams my name. It’s super warm, comfy, and bold (but in a good way). It’s different than all the other teddy bear coats I’ve seen out there. Why blend in when you can stand out? Am I right or what???

I want to know, how do YOU wear color in your looks?
