Holiday Dressing


My company holiday party is a few short weeks away and I can't help but daydream about this amazing skirt by SKOT for the occasion. Paired with a mohair sweater and some classic pumps, this outfit is not only perfect for the holidays but each piece would get plenty of wear outside of the season. And is this BaubleBar necklace to die for or what? Definitely a bit on the dressy side but could also look great with a t-shirt and boyfriend jeans. What do you wear to your holiday gatherings?

Four Eyes

Tuesday, November 19, 2013

Jacket: J.Crew Factory (old); Jeans: James via RueLaLa; Sweater: J.Crew; Heels: J.Crew; Bag: Phillip Lim; Watch: Michael Kors; Rings: Tiffany & Co., vintage; Glasses: Woow via Vizio Optic; Nails: Essie "Bobbing for Baubles"

Some mornings are spent primping and putting together a great outfit. Other mornings I'm lucky if I make it out the door with the same shoes on both feet (yes, that's actually happened.) Today was somewhere in the middle -- got a good night's sleep but also didn't have the energy or desire to dress up. So out came my uniform -- skinny jeans, comfy heels and a sweater. Lately my uniform has also included my fabulous new glasses from Vizio Optic. They're not only functional (thank you, astigmatism!) but they look cute too. They're the perfect addition to any outfit and make me feel sophisticated and pulled together.

Rue La La Wishlist!

Tuesday, November 12, 2013

I LOVE the holidays for many reasons. To me, the holidays mean cozy nights spent wrapped in blankets with those you love, festive parties with great friends, weekends spent baking Christmas goodies, and running around like a crazy woman trying to shop for everyone on my list. Luckily, Rue La La has made it super easy for me this year. Their one-stop-shop website makes it easy to browse gifts for the boyfriend, best friend, dog walker and mother-in-law all in one place.

Check out my Rue La La Wishlist to see what I'm coveting this season. Luxury sheets, a leather wrap bracelet, the perfect feminine watch. Oh, and a few great ideas for everyone else on my list too. (What! I've been a good girl this year!) 


Happy Shopping!

Shades of Fall

Thursday, November 7, 2013

Jacket: Calvin Klein via RueLaLa.com; Sweater: Free People; Jeans: James via RueLaLa.com; Booties: Sam Edelman; Bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim; Scarf: Bobbles & Lace

Fall is probably my favorite time of year in New England. We were especially lucky this year with a long and mild fall... plenty of cool days to enjoy my cozy autumn layers but also plenty of warmer, sunny days perfect for outdoor activities like apple picking and biking. This sweater and jeans combo is my go-to September through November. Comfortable, cute and casual.
