so my most recent fashion theory is that the world is getting edgier, and you know what… so am i! i am jumping on the bandwagon. i am not necessarily following along to be trendy (or maybe subliminally i am), i am just so sick of being cornered into feeling like my wardrobe has to consist solely of pinks and hearts and polka dots. to…
sometimes certain pieces hold a special little place in your heart and you feel instantly attached (and materialistic 🙂 ) … and that’s exactly how i feel with these socks! matt’s sister is living in patagonia on the other side of the world, and she sent these cute hand knit alpaca socks back with matt’s parents just for me! i think they’re the best gift…
alas, here are the last photos from my trip to boston that already seems way too far away! boston did us a favor and snowed during our stay, and it felt like a winter wonderland (until my toes were frozen from walking around!) the city from our 7th floor hotel room blanketed in snow really was one of the prettiest sites i have seen in…
a seven layer cake of warm and cozy sweaters, that is! i quickly learned a few things in boston while dressing for the cold: 1. knee highs over tights are not really warm enough. 2. bloggers who live in cold places either own tons of coats to create different looks, or they freeze to take outfit photos (like i am sort of doing here!) 3.…
now who says florals are only for spring? when urban outfitters had a sale on all of their denim i had to snag this pair for my trip! i quickly learned that while wandering a city in the dead of winter, lots of layers and comfy shoes are a must! i think i had on 3 other shirts below my sweater…. and was still sort…
happy new year to all of you who constantly support me. i love you all ❤ i hope your new year is filled with sparkle. xo blouse: tea and tulips jeans: c/o DL1961 jacket: F21 shoes: F21 bag: c/o romwe coat: j.crew…
here we are, in pretty, historical, verrrry cold boston! day one was fantastic, the sun was shining, and we walked most of the city. we visited chinatown, walked on newbury street and ate cupcakes at sweet, wandered around back bay, etc. the city is one of the most scenic places i’ve ever been too, and the trains make it so convenient to see it all!…
merry belated christmas, friends! .. and a happy new year 🙂 matt and i are off to boston tonight for an entire week of togetherness which i am forever grateful for. we’re seeing the band deer tick on new years eve, and exploring the city! i will be blogging adventures, of course 🙂 i hope you all have a lovely last week of 2012! ♥…
every other sunday on lincoln road, there is an amazing antique fair with an endless amount of booths lining the streets. many of them are overpriced, but that doesn’t mean a gal can’t browse and dream of owning multiple closets filled with furs, vintage dresses and polka dotted silk scarves. luckily there’s old cameras too, so matt came along for the walk (and claude too!)…
one of the best parts of where i live is that my neighborhood is a dream for walking around. i live so close to espanola way, and it is so beautifully decorated for the holidays. miami beach is sort of like nyc in the respect that you can walk everywhere and almost always find something to do, but you get to wear less layers and…
peter pan collars are one of my favorite accessories, and little claude told me they’re hers too 🙂 all collars via lalamagic…
the sun usually doesn’t let me take pictures of what i wear to work since it’s always dark when i get home, but here’s what i wore yesterday! when i am at work i usually wear j.crew or try to look “j.crew” but mixed with my own personal vintage-y style. i absolutely adore plaid right now (but who doesn’t with christmas right around the corner).…
nothing catches my eye more around this time of year than velvet. naturally i adore this velvetty skirt jeweled with polka dot pearls! it has been chilly enough in the mornings and afternoons for knee-highs, and i have been indulging. i am on the search for some new ones because these always slide down my leg as i walk. i would love some fair isle…
it has been in the 60’s early morning, which is not to be taken lightly in my book! i am in full-on sweater mode, and i have way too many sweaters in rotation! i finally caved and got this sweater from j.crew to wear on thanksgiving day. i mean c’mon, how could i resist 🙂 i can’t believe thanksgiving is tomorrow. it is one of…
our move-in is a success! even my favorite ceramic ice cream cone made it unscathed. now is the fun part, decorating! the house is very spacious, but doesn’t have such great lighting so i need to get lots of lamps. we’re also going to get fun antique furniture! here is a fun vintage inspired look I shot in a collaboration with Lookbook.nu X GAP for…
it’s monday, and this is my cozy weekend outfit that i wore ALL weekend. i’ve been living in this sweater, and all i want to wear for this holiday season are festive ties! this particular tie has little sheep all over it, and one of the sheep is black. it’s too cute to be real. we are moving in 2 days and the house is…
when the weather get’s chilly, the best place to visit is my friends cabin upcoast. it’s a bit dilapidated and beautifully rustic. the air is crisp, the grass is high and it is in the middle of nowhere. i have dreamt about these fall/winter days all year and they are finally back! i am having one of those weeks where i miss too many people.…
hey there, it’s me at 6:30 p.m. on tuesday night typing this after a 2 mile run. it has been getting dark so early and i don’t like it one bit! i can’t even pretend that i am not tired as ever. i took this week off from my store to adjust to my new hours and to figure out how exactly my life is…
matt and i walked to dinner to meet his parents right at sunset on friday. the weather was perfect 70’s, and the light was beautiful. i love love this time of the year. everything just feels better when it’s cooler outside! plus, i am absolutely in love with these high waist trousers, and the color is my current favorite. on saturday night i said…
i spent the afternoon on halloween wandering around lincoln road with some friends. the energy was lively, little kids were trick-or-treating and even dogs were in costume! i love being in the middle of the hustle and bustle on lincoln, and am even more excited that in 12 days i will live right nearby! i hope you all had a lovely halloween, and have a…
