So friends this is my latest purchase from Goodwill and I am in deep love with it.

  Ok, so not a true true outfit post, but over the weekend the BF and I discovered we had both bought new faux snakeskin shoes. on me-urban outfitters (available here); on the boy- vans (bought here, um this store is kind of sexy) You can see my little fall secret with flats and jeans. I actually tuck them into my flats creating kind of a stirrups look. No one every notices and it keeps my feet a bit warmer… View Post

What I Wore-A Bit of Lace

Last month I attended an engagement party and as I walked out the door I had a tee hee moment because I realized my whole ensemble cost me about $60 bucks! (dress-thrifted from keiko lynn; bag-thrifted; shoes calvin klein via dsw; arm party-gifted; ring made her think) I got sooooo many compliments on this dress and it cost me $2 (that’s TWO DOLLARS) at the Blogger Closet Raid over the summer.

What I Wore-Bluma Project

I heard over the summer anthropologie was going to start carrying fair trade jewelry line the bluma project. I totally fell in love with the bluma project’s really colorful and urban design over the summer so I decided to pop in and see if anthropologie was still carrying any goodies from this ethical brand. AND THEY WERE!!! I scored this gorgeous neon beaded necklace :D. (blazer-h&m; tee and shorts- thrifted via goodwill; shoes thrifted via buffalo exchange) I LOVE IT!… View Post

What I Wore-Corporate to Casual

When I started interviewing for new jobs I had a little bit of a dilemma. My current job was soooooo casual that to walk in with something remotely looking business kind of makes things look obvious.  And while my employer knew I was looking for other work I really didn’t want to look out of place. So this is how I took my interview outfit and made it casual. First off my interview outfit.   I always choose a dress… View Post

What I Wore-Going Gatsby

The charm of New York NEVER ends I tell you! The 6th bi-annual Jazz Age Lawn Party was held a few weeks ago on Governors Island and I was happy to attend with some lovely peeps. When I think of the 20’s I think of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The description of  the elite life in Long Island with dreamy white lace dresses á la Mia Farrow in the film version with Robert Redford (hubba hubba). I… View Post

What I Wore-My Friend the Smoothie Operator

A couple of weeks ago I received this text message from one of my nearest and dearest friends Jules. “Hi! I’ve been making smoothies. How about I stop by your office later as you’re finishing up work and bring you a banana,  peanut butter, choc, soy milk smoothie? Protein powder is optional.” Bahahaha…how cute is she?!?! And how lucky am I to know her??! I had a short work day and was able to snap some pics of my outfit… View Post

What I Wore-Pattern Here and There

I really love the look of pattern mixing, but I have yet to do it in a really bold way á la Zarna or print mixing guru Anika.

What I Wore-Bahahahaha

I laugh because just last night the BF and I were watching TV and these sunglasses appeared and I said “Oh I have those guys!” and the BF says to me, “Yeah, never wear those.” Bahahahah!

I won these Coco & Breezy sunglasses from Kimberlee of I Have a Degree in This. I… View Post

What I Wore-Bag of the Moment

I’m a bit of a serial bag monogamist. I tend to get incredibly infatuated with one bag and love it till it falls apart then move on to the next. At the moment I’m obsessed with this tote that my dear mamacita gave me years ago. I am loving the message, the strong graphic lettering, and the red, white and blue. The quote on the bag is by John F. Kennedy. My mama has spent her life trying to make… View Post
