Aztec & a Fur Vest

As these winter months go buy I cant help but get tired of wearing sweater after sweater.  When I can catch a break I like to mix things up.  This fur vest is an absolute favorite of mine, I purchased it last year while working at Bebe and it is just amazing.  It is a reversible fur vest, one side is suede and the other side is, yep you guessed it, fur!  I like to mix up the side that I wear, I am also fond of the cut out in the back.
I love wearing the fest with a feminine blouse, this one is my favorite right now, the detailing is so dainty and the cut is very flattering on me.  I paired the outfit with some olive jeggings for comfort and cheetah flats because who doesn't love some cheetah.
Unfortunately i have been sick in bed basically the entire weekend with a stomach bug (there goes my hopes for being back on schedule)

Hope everyone has a great week :)

Sequined Sweater & Cold Weather

With the weather down to record breaking temperatures in some states, here in Boston we have experienced this year after year.  In my 19 years of life I actually forget how cold it can get.  When it's cold I want to do nothing except for snuggle in bed, and watch bad reality TV. Last night was the return of The Real World, it proved to be more amusing than I expected!  In reality I can not lay in bed all day, I actually have to leave the house and work.  On those cold, I don't feel like doing anything days, choosing an attractive outfit is not something I want to do.

Max, being the most amazing boyfriend that he is, personally picked out this adorable sweater for me (for Christmas).  I opened the box and instantly loved it.  It is the perfect color, the perfect length, and is covered with delicate sequins (my favorite).  The headband and glove set speaks for itself, what more could you want on a cold day aside from warm ears and fingers?  The set is from No Rest for Bridget, they are the perfect accessory for a winter day, warm and glamorous.  Unfortunately they are not sold online but I am sure that other local boutiques will have something similar.  The vest was added for extra warmth, and the combat boots were for comfort (booties and the cold do not mix well for me).

Stay warm out there.

Bright Sweater + Vest Weather

The holidays have ended and as the new year approaches we have had some ugly weather.  It's okay though because rainy days are perfect for movies!  This past Sunday was a gloomy one.  I brightened it up with a pink sweater and cream vest (that I have been loving).  This Old Navy vest is a keeper!  I had been lusting over the J. Crew vests that everyone and their mother owns but when i found this similar one at Old Navy for... 20 flipping dollars I jumped at the chance (and should probably go pick up a few more).  Since it was raining, I wanted something dark on bottom.  This jeggings are also from Old Navy and were so affordable.  Old Navy has seriously stepped their game up, the fit of the jeans are amazing, now I know why I have seen them on so many other blogs (they are the rockstar cut).

This seriously look alike bag was a major find at No Rest for Bridget.  Working at a clothing store is detrimental to my wallet but this baby was only $35 and I needed it.  I have wanted a Rebecca Minkoff  bag for three years and counting.  First of all the red color is amazing and second of all it was only 35 flipping dollars!  Who could pass that up?  If you haven't seen these bags you should check them out, here.  After wearing this look alike around for a couple of days i can confidently say that I would much rather a smaller size.  Some good came out of buying an almost knockoff bag (I prefer not calling them knockoffs, more like tester bags before a big purchase).

It is also important to have a cute umbrella!

Every Ending Yields a New Beginning

1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8

As 2013 comes to an end I have reflected on my last 4 months of blogging and how great it has been.  I underestimated the time that blogging really takes!  I have met some amazing people and have had a chance to channel my creative energy in a somewhat therapeutic way (it feels great to meet goals).  With the new year arriving I am excited about my first full year of blogging, and life changes that will take place.  I am so excited for the new year!

In 2014 I hope to get on schedule with my blog.  It's difficult with school and work but when the warmer weather comes it will be a lot easier to keep up (the sun has been setting around 4pm lately).  I hope to make more connections and take my blog to the next level.  I also hope to start making tutorials via Youtube if you haven't ever watched any you should.  They are full of new ideas and many tips basically anything you want to know about!  I will be continuing my education (probably changing my major another 8 times), hopefully moving (fingers crossed), and turing 20 (no more excuses referencing my age).  2014 will be a productive year and I could not be more excited!

Resolution wise... I still have to thing about those.  I hope everyone has a happy New Year! 

What are you looking forward to in 2014?

Paisley Print

With the Holidays behind us it's the perfect time to catch up on errands and such. 

This outfit is perfect for errand running without looking like the mess you may be in.  I feel that over the last couple of weeks I have been so behind in every aspect of life and am making it a priority to get back on track.  Sweater dresses have been a favorite of mine for the last couple weeks for a couple of reasons: they are easy, warm, and adorable.   I already discussed my dislike for jackets, so while running erands I like to wear things that are light enough that I am not going to be sweating by the time I am ready to checkout.  Sweater dresses are just fabulous all together.
