HAPPY HALLOWEEN! i hope everyone stayed safe in the hurricane. it’s a post filled with mixed emotions, because many of my family members lost cars and had flooded houses from the storm. they are on my mind. i am very happy they are all okay, and thankful for that. also, yesterday i got a promotion at work! i cannot believe how much i like the…
big pumpkins & little pumpkins, i just love them all. growing up in my family, halloween was a big deal. every year we went to a pumpkin patch and my two brothers and i each carved our own pumpkin. we always dressed up, and we always trick-or-treated until our pillowcases were full of candy (i trick-or-treated until i moved away for college at 18 LOL).…
it’s october 26th, and i am now going to say yes to plaid for the next 2 months. we are officially moving to south beach. we are also officially getting a weenie dog. my store photos are going to be in a studio in our next house. time to watch some youtube videos! there’s a tropical storm right now, and next week it will be…
if j.crew has taught me anything, it’s that you can never own or wear too much denim/ chambray. i honestly didn’t own any chambray tops until this year, but i love how versatile this one is. i wore this outfit to work. i feel sort of silly sharing work outfits because they are not 100 % my style, more like a mixture of me +…
well good evening, i am writing this at the stroke of midnight before i go to bed (finish watching full metal jacket with matt) and wake up at 4:15 am for rollout, my favorite days! i cannot wait to see all of the new collection pieces as they are unpacked from the box. it’s like christmas! this weekend was extra fun because matt and i…
good morning! last night was a late night filled with style WARS, hipster bars and late night cheese escapades and i’m about to go run it off at the gym 🙂 here’s a few snapshots. i wore this dress i’ve been saving for a special occasion from lalamagic. the event, put together by simonett, included a live styling battle between the lovely dani of nany’s…
matt and i found this new cute brunch spot near our house called morgan’s, and had to try it out, especially since breakfast food is about the only food i eat. it was breezy and beautiful so we sat outside and i had berries with whipped cream. mmmmmmm. i’m still dreaming about it. i found this dress on a trip upcoast. my friend joey specifically…
i just have so many feelings right now i couldn’t possibly get them all out! i will try! ok ok so i am really ecstatic halloween is 2 weeks away but also, where did october go? and september, and august and all of this year? time is just zoooooming by. i am already starting to collect darling christmas/holiday/new years dresses for my store! also, since…
so i am on a band of horses kick. general specific is the best song EVER. it just makes me dance, those songs are the best ones! i went and saw cat power last night, and am basically just on a music high lately. good shows are coming, good music is on the j.crew soundtrack & i’m happy! i’ve been inspired by tieka’s beautiful fall posts,…
hello fellow fashion lovers 🙂 i wore this to work the other day even though i felt it may be too “vintage” for j.crew’s taste. i absolutely adore the festive pattern of the skirt, and the cobalt blue sweater makes every outfit more “fall.” i was giggling with a customer yesterday over whether or not fall colors and fall “fashion rules” apply to us here…
just matt, his film camera and i at dusk in downtown miami. we caught up over a shared bread bowl of clam chowder and some pasta after followed by some cocktails at our favorite local bar. for work i usually dress preppy, so on my down time i have been loving a little bit of black, grunge and studs. i loved the contrast of the…
hi hi hi! writing this at midnight after work because HEY my time has been limited these days! pulling off a “clopen”today … a close to open. i love working non-stop, it feels so good. making up for lost time with matt tonight on a fun little date night, and there’s my life in a nut shell. these are from orlando, wearing my FAVORITE favorite…
around-the-house i love to wear knee highs and my favorite dresses. i have been enjoying my cozy time in bed drinking coffee extra amounts these days. i can’t wait til’ i can actually drink hot coffee outside while wearing knee highs. only a month or so until florida gets chilly 🙂 off to grab my morning coffee now! have a happy thursday! outfit 1: dress:…

for most of my existence i swore off the color black in my wardrobe, but lately i have been craving it. i found the skirt last week and wore this around all day and then simply changed my top to something more formal to go into work. it is such a versatile piece. as far as the sweater… i just can’t hide it. i’m the…

these amaaazing polka dotted pants came in the mail from motel rocks yesterday, and i immediately put them on. i swear i’ve never loved pants even close to as much. They are perfectly high waisted and stretchy enough to be cozy. it’s been getting down to the 70s at night (i know, “SO COLD”) but i am a big baby and always wear fall clothes anyway…
here’s a peek at my last day in new york. there was surfing, brunch foods & of course my aunts 50th birthday celebration. it was amazing being all together again as a family. i have 13 cousins, so you can only imagine.. 🙂 rowdy, dysfunctional, silly new yorkers all in one room. AND my cute 83-year-old grandma came too, all dressed up in a baby…
just a few snapshots of a day spent with my guy in the place i want to live the most, long beach NY. boardwalk + diner + the leaves changing colors. (!!!) i got this french hen sweater from work ( also got the socks to match) and wore it for a few days straight. it is just so cozy and provides the perfect amount…
in the scheme of it all, i think all of my best days were spent in nyc. especially when it is sweater weather! had one of those days where i squeezed all of my favorite things in— thrifting, coffee, shopping and wandering the streets with bonnie and gaby. bonnie brought us to this cute little spot called saturdays where you can sip delicious iced coffee…
