This week I …
• Am prepping for a few upcoming adventures and invested in a new suitcase. Crap — that doesn’t count as a clothing expense, does it?
• Got a little cray in Brooklyn. Someone, please stop letting me mix bourbon and tequila. It ain’t pretty.
• Was spotted on C. Wonder’s blog for a fashion faux pas that you have to try!
• Survived another snow storm, but I almost caved and bought a puffer coat. I’m not a big fan of the bulkiness, but ugh, I’m getting desperate people.
• Finally pulled the trigger and ordered our very first piece of furniture from Society Social! Eee!
• Have my eye on full midi skirts for spring. This one’s red hot.
• Decided to start growing my collection of coffee table books. I need your recommendations!
• Am pining over these black and cognac heels. They’re absolutely timeless.
• Plan on scooping up a few new work pieces from Ann Taylor. Everything’s 50% off — happy shopping friends!

This week I …
• Started reading No More Dirty Looks. I’m only a few chapters into the organic beauty guide, but I’m convinced that I’m going green and never looking back.
• Created a Valentine’s Day inspired Pinterest board, because everything’s cuter when it’s heart-shaped.
• Bought myself a dozen hot pink roses — because why not?
• Decided to spend this month’s shopping budget on a new bag. Bag number one or bag number two?
• Had matzo instead of mimosas for Sunday brunch at Katz’s Deli. I now see why it’s an NYC must!
• Really wish I had a reason/space for a hot pink ottoman. Don’t know how the BF would feel about that one.
• Am really tempted to scoop up these leopard gloves from C. Wonder. They’re an additional 50% off!
• Love that J.Crew, Madewell and Club Monaco’s additional 40% off sale sales are still going strong! Shop to it!
• Celebrated an exciting new milestone in my life and I can’t wait to share!

This week I …
• Finally tackled a fun DIY project with this little sparkly ampersand. When in doubt, add sequins!
• Truth be told, my original goal was to make my own sparkly steppers, but when that plan folded (aka I got too impatient), I pulled the trigger on these bad boys instead. Start a new DIY and scoop up the real deal on mega sale? Winners all around.
• Rang in the new year with some fabulous friends in this feathery number. Of course, that was followed by a not-so-fabulous New Year’s Day in bed … until 6:00 PM.
• Was obviously too hungover to write out my New Year’s Resolutions on Wednesday, but I read about Jess of Here & Now’s 2013 Shopping Budget and felt inspired to commit to my own monthly budget for all of 2014. More on that to follow!
• Promised I would step up my home decor game and have my eye on this python accent table. Isn’t he handsome?
• Made the leap into cleaner beauty products, with the help of my green beauty guru, Brenda. My organic arsenal now includes manuka honey, a clay mask, honey almond hand cream and a citrusy facial cleaner. Can’t wait to test it all out and share the results with you!
Happy weekend friends!
