Post-vacation work weeks are the worst.  It feels like forever ago that I was on the west coast, soaking up the sun, and skipping around town without a jacket.  I figured I should enjoy the opportunity to wear a dress sans tights one last time before I headed back to NYC.  Miss it already!

It’s the third round of my style collaboration with Kacie of Kacie’s Kloset, Christina of Oh So Glam, and Kristin of Living in Color Print!  This time, we’re showing you four ways to wear oxblood — the it color of the season.

I’m no stranger to oxblood (see exhibits A, B, and C) and this pair of skinny jeans have been a staple in my fall wardrobe ever since I scooped them up from Zara last month.  This time around, I paired the pants with a patterned sweater and leopard flats.  The combo incorporates my go-to mixed prints look without stealing the spotlight from the main attraction.

Check out how Kacie, Christina, and Kristin wore oxblood and let us know what you think about this fall’s most popular color trend in the comments section!

apartment sweet apartment.

The boyfriend and I have our first NYC apartment!  I’ve been subletting since I moved here and even though it was nice place to set up base for a few months, it definitely lacked a personal touch.  So when it came to finding an apartment of our own, we wanted to make sure that it was a place we could call home for the next year or two.

Well I scoured the city, trolled Craigslist, and scoped out a dozen apartments during my search.  And just when I started to lose hope, I found this gem: a fourth floor walk-up in Gramercy with new renovations, great living space, and two amazing closets (well … for NYC).  From the search, to the application, to the fees and deposits — it’s been an exhausting process.  But now that’s behind us, we get to focus on making this apartment and this city our home!
