Chilly & Casual

COAT: SANDRO (only left in navy) // TOP: FOREVER21 (SIMILAR) // 
PANTS: ZARA (SIMILAR, also love THESE in palm print) // SNEAKERS: C. WONDER (SIMILAR) // 
PURSE: KATE SPADE SATURDAY // SUNNIES: SIMILAR // RINGS: BANANA REPUBLIC (SIMILAR)

Hopefully the chilly days are fiiiinally coming to an end here in NYC, but I’ve loved wearing this olive wool jacket on windy days. The color and lighter weight are perfect for spring and fall, and can even be worn on not so cold days in winter. It has a great little fur collar detailing that’s thinner than most fur collars I’ve seen – it’s nice that it’s not too bulky-feeling for spring. This coat costs around $500 from Sandro, but I actually snagged it for $30 at my fave thrift shop, Beacon’s Closet!!

Fun fact: Apparently karma is a b**** for those who brag about their great jacket finds, because I had an entire venti coffee thrown on me by a stranger while wearing this coat the other day. I just got it back from the dry cleaners and spent about an hour brushing out the fur collar with my teasing comb to get it to look right again.

Good news: it was successful. Bad news: Beauty is pain, people.

Skirt Overhaul

Raise your hand if you're suddenly trying to overhaul your entire closet to put together suitable work outfits for fall? That can't be just me. I've been on the hunt for dark colored casual-but-not-mini skirts to wear with booties or opaque black tights this fall, and I think I hit the jackpot when I happened to start perusing Forever 21's website. We're talking dirt. cheap. It's going to be pencil skirts for days yo. Which brings me to my weirdly named, but mathematically appropriate, "19, 20, 21" post today:

1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10 
11  / 12 / 13 / 14 / 15 / 16 / 17 / 18 / 19


Happy shopping!

Weekday Wishlist: Clutches

Now that we're in summer's warm embrace and my outfit choices are based largely on "how can I have the least amount of fabric touching my body and still get away with it", it feels like time to stop lugging around such hot and heavy giant leather tote bags and switch to clutches. I especially love envelope clutches and decided to stock up on them for this summer. 

About an hour into my search, I realized Hot damn! Clutches are expensive! 

I don't know about you, but while I'm willing to pay big bucks for my giant MK leather bag that I'll carry for years, when it comes to clutches, I'm looking to spend a lot less so that I can purchase a few different trendy styles to match with my outfits. Whether you're looking for solid, floral, geometric or monogrammed, here are my top picks for clutches under $60 that are available online now:

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

Tory Burch Sale

(aka whaaat??)

If you are a semi-starving artist who covets Tory Burch, you know that Tory is NOT one for sales. So if you've been waiting and waiting for a reason to finally buy that bag or those shoes, jump on this. The 'Friends & Fans' Sale goes through this Monday and gets you 25% off with the code FRIENDLY.

Click on the pics below to check out what pieces I'm itching for:

1. Robinson Open Dome Satchel // WHITE PURSES! So crisp, clean and classy for spring and summer. This beautiful bag is $550 but $416 with the sale (if that helps you justify it).

2. Viv Flats // Two-tone d'orsay flats with cute gold Tory Burch emblem on the side. Sold.

3. Ella Neoprene Tote (Orange) // I've been eyeing this in Bloomie's for a while now. It's actually more neon than the picture looks & it would fit everything I could hope to cart around the city this summer.

4. Veronique Short // So beachy! Anything that reminds me of Greece is automatically on my wishlist.

5. Double Wrap Logo Bracelet // A classic. 

6. Audra Sandal // My what a lovely navy sandal... wait it has a block heel wrapped in intricate cut-out gold plate?? Classic with a twist is the name of the game when it comes to my shopping wishlist.

7. Lace Perforated Ring // Loving this chunky yet still delicate gold ring.

8. Ella Neoprene Tote (Pink) // Yeah... this is the same as #3. Neon pink vs. neon orange? I can't decide. That's how much I LOVE this bag. Originally $225, now $168.75

Happy Shopping!
