Dumbo? Always.

IMG_4745 IMG_4729 IMG_46994 IMG_4714

It’s official. We have fallen in love with DUMBO, Brooklyn.

Dumbo stands for Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass.

Don’t worry, I learned that just yesterday. We’ve only graced Dumbo with our presence twice since moving to New York, however, it’s been one of our favorite spots. We love the atmosphere, food, and cobble stone streets. There’s a restaurant on Front Street called “Front Street Pizza” that has everything you could possibly want: Sandwiches, Pizza, Pasta, Soup, and Salads. Don’t let the actual restaurant itself or it’s aesthetic fool you…the food is BOMB and they give you a ton of it for the price.

About the look: You already know my love, more like obsession, with jumpsuits. I absolutely love the femininity of the floral design with a touch ruffle. It’s material is so soft and silky, it will leave you feeling comfortable and sexy all night long!

With love,

Upper East Side Stripes

IMG_4614 IMG_4597 IMG_4608 IMG_4615

Connecting. Networking. Meeting new people. That’s been the agenda for the past week. You’d be surprised what a new city, a new change of pace and fresh start will do. (Along with many, many MANY hiccups of course.) It’s like I have absolutely nothing left to lose and that’s both terrifying and quite satisfying.

I had a meeting on the Upper East Side and I decided to bring out my stripes because you really can’t ever go wrong with stripes. Sometimes when meeting new people, I never want to overdue my outfitting. I like to keep things minimal and fresh. I opted for this Zara dress that I’ve had my eye on for forever. It’s surprisingly breathable. Shoot, it had to be because of this New York summer.

With Love,

Street Glam

Since my announcement of moving to New York I’ve been rocking this hat more than usual. I can’t help but feel giddy when I wear it because it symbolizes more than just my hubby’s favorite baseball team. It symbolizes the city that I’m about to make my home and all the hard work and preparation of getting there. This was my last photo shoot in Denver so I thought wearing this cap would be fitting. I’m so excited to see my style evolve and grow since I’ll be pushed past my limits in a city that’s known to be one the greatest fashion cities in the world. I’ve been bored and restless with my outfitting but I’m about to embark on a whole new playing field. I truly cannot wait to be in my own skin surrounded by people who have the same passion as me.

Girly Details

IMG_43310 IMG_4243 IMG_4276 IMG_4239 IMG_43302

On a recent date night out with my super hot husband I wore this extremely girly blouse and pink bow shoes with a touch of distressed denim. It was a quick and spontaneous date night so I didn’t have time to figure out the outfit details. I threw on this beyond gorgeous blouse that I got in the mail that day and when I’m in a time crunch I reach for my comfort zone denim-distressed boyfriend jeans. I recently scored these super sweet and feminine mules and it was the perfect moment to bring them out to play. I absolutely love the mix of the sea foam green with the blush. It makes for the perfect feminine ensemble. I won’t be surprised if I wear this exact outfit again in the future. It’s a favorite already.

Easy Breezy Jumpsuit

IMG_4219 IMG_4204 IMG_4216 IMG_41193 IMG_4217 IMG_4210

Put me in a jumpsuit and I’m forever happy. A striped one, a blue one, a red one, a black one, a strapless one, a button-up one, and even back baring one…I’m all for it. I can’t tell you enough how much I’m obsessed with jumpsuits. They’re so trendy and easy to wear. You don’t even have to try to be fashion forward in them because, girl, you already are. They take all the work out of planning an outfit because they’re statement enough. Since I began my journey with jumpsuits, I’ve accumulated more than I can even mention but there always seems to be one that comes out that I absolutely have to have. This breezy, skin baring jumpsuit is absolutely perfect for summer and perfect for a day at the beach.
