sweater + leather.

October 1, 2012

My favorite part about dressing for fall is definitely playing around with different textures.  It’s the easiest way to incorporate a multitude of looks into one.  A light-knit sweater and a (faux) leather skirt make for a nice balance between prep and punk, but the jeweled collar necklace and lace clutch add a feminine feel.  Outfit identity crisis? Maybe, but mixing and matching is just way too fun.

Sweater: J.Crew (on sale!)

Necklace: JewelMint

I can’t believe I’ve already been living in NYC for a month!  It sometimes feels unreal and I have to remind myself that this isn’t an extended a vacation — it’s real life and it’s MY life!  Well there’s no better way to celebrate my first month by getting the hell out of here … ha!  I’ll be in DC this weekend for a friend’s wedding and it’ll be the first time I’ve seen the bf in a month.  Cheers to a great month (full of stylish outfits) and to the incredible adventures ahead!

runway inspired.

September 24, 2012

While I’m so excited to be experiencing my first fall in NYC, a few runway shows from NYFW have me already counting down the months until spring!  Bloglovin‘ is challenging bloggers to create a runway inspired post from Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring/Summer 2013 collection and I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to take elements from her spring collection and integrate them into my fall wardrobe.

My favorite elements from RM’s show were the graphic lines and baroque-style prints — a balanced contrast between traditional patterns and modern details.  So when I found this baroque graphic print dress from Topshop, I knew it would pair perfectly with a peplum top for a look that’s both edgy and sophisticated.

Top: Topshop
Dress: Topshop (worn as a skirt)
Necklace: H&M (similar)
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff
Shoes: Pour la Victoire

PS: Bloglovin’ and Rebecca Minkoff are also holding a contest for readers and it ends today!  Check out the details for your chance to win a $500 shopping spree!
