prepping for fall.

August 29, 2013

Going from princess to prep today. This week has been particularly gloomy and I find myself reaching for darker colors already. Plus, there’s much less fuss in throwing on a denim shirt, a striped skirt, and a pair of flats. With the three day weekend around the corner, my wardrobe and I are already on cruise control and ready for fall.

carrie moment.

August 28, 2013

Today marks the completion of my first year in New York City! It’s been a year full of challenges and adventures — with a bit of glamour and a whole lot of grit. Still, I’ve been lucky enough to have experienced a few magical moments in NYC and I couldn’t imagine a better way to celebrate my first year here than by having a little Carrie Bradshaw moment of my own.

Walking the Brooklyn Bridge for the first time was a special moment for me. It took me nearly six months to actually do it, but once I did, I realized how for the first time, walking from Brooklyn to Manhattan felt like I was heading home. So now I return from time to time — not usually dressed in a fluffy tulle skirt and lace up heels — but always in awe of incredible city I get to call home.

rediscovered.

August 26, 2013

Whenever I feel like I have nothing to wear (which is just about every morning), I try digging through my closet and dusting off a few oldies. I love pairing pieces that I haven’t worn in forever like this navy tank (May 2012) and this white lace skirt (December 2012) and suddenly discovering a new outfit to add to the arsenal. It’s a great way to rediscover your wardrobe and an even better way to start the week.

P.S. Congratulations to Robin W. on winning my giveaway with The Rad Market! I’ll be reaching out to you soon — can’t wait to see which piece you pick!
