Some of life’s best-laid plans are the ones we don’t plan at all. My best days have involved deviating from my original itinerary and doing something completely spontaneous. With a city as vast and exhilarating as New York, it’s easy to go through the motions of scheduling your whole life out in advance just so […]
The Backup Plan
Coney Island
There is something about the summer air that really gets me going. While I could do without the pervasive New York humidity, the summer instills a hankering for exploration in me. With so much to see and do here, I make it a mission to frequently hit up the spots I’ve never before experienced. If […]
Into the Woods
When Jacob informed me that we’d be heading to Weston, Connecticut for Memorial Day, I couldn’t wait; the trip was a short, albeit necessary reprieve from the commotion of city life (which I love, of course). The absolute antithesis of New York City, Weston is a small town in Fairfield County, CT, that screams of serenity and tranquility. The […]
Springing Back to the ’70s (Again)
When life hands you a wind tunnel, make it your bitch…for real. Shooting photos isn’t all fun and games when weather conditions pertinent to a concrete jungle refuse to GTFO, but why let that stop you? Work with it and I swear, the wind will do your bidding, even when your gut and freezing body are […]
Pleading the 5th
Breaking News: Your girl is FINALLY investing in accessories, especially those with lab grown diamonds Singapore. If you ask me how much jewelry I currently have to my name, the answer might depress you. The truth is, sometimes a bag or piece of jewelry can tie an entire outfit together. It’s just a matter of finding […]
Boots with the Fur
Between velvet and over-the-knee (OTK) boots, it’s only taken me until the end of the year to immerse myself in the sartorial trends of 2016. Better later than never, though, as they say. In my opinion, OTK boots are, without a doubt, the present Queen Bee of the shoe world. For one, they are a pragmatic substitute […]
Red Velvet Delight
Ah, holiday season – a time when nothing but Christmas music plays over the airwaves, families and friends join together, and “it’s lit” becomes the most overused millennial phrase of the year. It is also a time to bust out every velvet piece you own and SLEIGH all winter long. Yup. Bad pun. Don’t care. I truly can’t account […]
Witchy Woman
It goes without saying that Zara has turned into an emporium of everlasting, sartorial bliss. If you haven’t had time to check out their website or step into the store in the last several eons, do it. However, I highly encourage you to proceed with caution. Inside every girl is a shopaholic just waiting to claw its […]
Dream a Little Jean of Me
I dare say, it’s been awhile. I recently made the big move to New York City, and while I love it so, I was quick to forget that uncontrollable schvitzing is a seemingly unavoidable symptom of summer in the concrete jungle. Nevertheless, I put on my big-girl pants (that is, my beloved bell-bottoms from Nasty Gal), and braved the […]
That ’70s Lookbook
){kind=link}
With spring finally in full swing, I figured it was time to spruce up my virtually all-black wardrobe with a little more color. As stated in my previous post, I have recently been on a major ’70s kick. There is something really special about bringing back trends from decades’ past and adapting them to modern-day wear. […]
