Sweater Weather

img_17039img_17087 collage_fotor11 img_7028 img_7020 img_17061 collage_fotor

I love to sport a sweater dress in this crisp sweater weather. I especially love this dusty shade of blue paired with my all time favorite white booties. Instant comfort for a city girl. Once I was all done running errands in this get up, I came home, put dinner in the crock pot, slid on my favorite leggings and typed up this blog post. Talk about an easy day-to-night outfit transition.

Keeping this blog post short and sweet. Hope you enjoy the photos and don’t forget to check out the links below to shop my outfit!

Talk soon.

An Autumn Story

img_58444 img_5832 img_5794 img_5867 img_5779 img_58255 img_5831

Rich magentas and deep olive greens go hand in hand to create the perfect Autumn story. We shot these pictures after a freezing rainstorm in New York City that we thought would never end. Once the sun finally came out, we were relieved to see the sky again. It was the perfect sunset moment that we had to capture. I’m in love with the way theses photos turned out regardless of the hard hitting wind and cold temperatures. It helps to have a hottie husband behind the camera.

Hey, We’re Golden

img_5420 img_53811 img_5426 img_5418 img_53899

Golden hours and gilded leaves. When I think of Fall, I immediately think GOLD. Metallics have been hot for awhile and I’m not talking the 14 Karat kind that dangles around your neck, nope, I’m talking about this $40 Missguided dress. It’s luxurious and trendy and you won’t be breaking the bank when rocking it around the city. When paired with khaki or other neutral colors, this glimmering shade becomes even more brilliant.

My Zumba Outfit

img_5267 img_52880 img_5270 img_5297 img_5288 img_53111img_5273

Coming from a girl that loved being active and danced her whole life, it’s quite ironic that fitness is no longer a part of my daily, weekly or (embarrassingly) monthly routine. I’m unmotivated. I’d like to think my lack of motivation comes from not being able to find a fitness program that suits me. I’m on the hunt for a great dance company/studio in the NYC area if anyone knows any. I would love to take some barre classes for toning but I’m more interested in some freestyle, hip-hop based dance classes where I can get dowwwn, if you know what I mean. In the meantime I love staying active and participating in some Zumba every now and then. It releases endorphins and all the negative energy while still having a blast. Working out shouldn’t be so serious. I highly recommend trying it ladies if you haven’t.

I can’t say goodbye without mentioning how absolutely adorable this work out set it is. I’m so in love with the soft blue shade, detailing and the material…oh my.

The best workout gear that will actually make you want to workout.

P.S. My sweet Finley was very eager to be in these photos and I’m so happy we decided to let him join us. He’s such a natural! Maybe I should sign him up for some doggie modeling. Wink wink.

Love & Pizza

img_55229 img_55203 img_5190 img_55242 img_5193

Love and some delicious New York pizza is all you need. My t-shirt says it all. If I had just these two things for the rest of my life, I think I’d be okay.

If wearing galactic inspired pants scares you, just bring them back down to earth with a casual tee. It softens the look and balances things out. I rocked this look during fashion week but don’t put it past me to rock a similar look every day of the week. Moving to NYC has really opened my eyes to more and more fashion and street style inspiration. No one cares what you wear. Everyone has such an open mind here. Wearing silly space pants on a Sunday is no big deal. I love it.

With Love,
