I am in love with this bag. I had been dying for something Pendelton for the LONGEST time but couldn’t afford any of it. I saw this bag on the Urban Oufitters website and knew I had to have it. They did a collaboration with Pendelton; most of the other things weren’t spectacular but this […]

Another great find from the thrift store in Bklyn… this black leather skirt! I absolutely adore it. It’s a great length and was only 5 dollars… you can’t really beat that.  The shirt is by my all time favorite designer Phillip Lim. I received it as one of my graduation gifts from college. I just […]

Tie Dye Heaven

Two life (aka shopping) lessons for the day.  1) Ann Taylor will surprise you, so check it out… oh and everything’s either 30 or 40 percent off… all the time. 2) J. Crew is da bomb… they rock even more because they have great sales as well. This blazer, for instance, (which I had been […]

I have always been a fan of Clare Vivier and I became even more enamored with the brand after viewing their Instagram.  It’s a little early to start writing down my Christmas list but I’m pretty confident it will begin with a Clare Vivier bag.  *All photographs taken from Clare Vivier. 

Da' Blues

So I don’t actually have the blues but I’m wearing all blue! I definitely overuse this shirt but I can’t help it, it goes with so much. The two shades of blue are just different enough that this outfit works. The neon orange elastic waste breaks up the outfit perfectly. I saw this skirt last […]

The Light Between the Oceans

The book drew me in from the first page.  I was very attached to the characters – particularly Isabel, one of the protagonists of the novel. Tom Sherbourne, Isabel’s husband, is a lighthouse keeper in Australia. Isabel lives with Tom on the island of Janus – they try to have children but have multiple miscarriages. Everything […]
