wind chill


When Weather.com says it feels like 6°, my motto becomes: the chunkier the scarf and the cozier the sweater, the better. This is what I wore to brave the windy streets yesterday along travels that included a stop at LadurĂ©e for macarons and the Doughnut Plant for donuts. Don't ask.

dress me up in thermals


I haven't properly expressed my love for these Free People thermals on the blog, and I'm not sure any words can adequately convey the coziness. Let's just say that I picked one up in every color, literally. Now that I'm back to 6AM wake-ups, I'm all for sneaky pajama dressing, and thermal is the way to go.

Oh and remember the boots? Here they are in real life!

denim on denim


There's something so classic about denim on denim. It's the perfect canvas to dress up or down with any color, pattern, print, accessory - endless possibilities! I stuck with trusty leopard and a piled-high wrist.

the bare wrist fix: shanah


Continuing our Bare Wrist Fix trip around the world is the lovely Shanah from Belgium!

Black and gold will forever be one of our favorite color combos, and Shanah wears it perfectly!
We love how she made her watch the focus, bordering it with black bracelets. Her awesome two finger ring (a trend we're dying to try!) continues the black and gold pattern and adds an extra element of edginess!

Bare Wrist? Fixed.


GET HER LOOK
1. Carol Marie Black Stones Bracelet, 2. Erica Anenberg Two Finger Ring,
3. Casio Watch, 4. Marc by Marc Jacobs Leather Bracelet, 5. Deborah Lippman Nail Polish


WE WANT YOUR WRISTS! Tweet or email us a pic of your Bare Wrist Fix and you could be featured, too!

on deck


Not going to lie, I popped this outfit on and out the door I went. It wasn't until I caught my reflection later that I realized I looked like.. a lifeguard. No? I see lifeguard. Sure the leopard belt throws it off a bit, but red, white, blue, stripes, aviators.. throw a little zinc oxide on my nose and I'm poolside-ready! But I must say, nothing beats a good old jeans-and-tee combo, whatever the colors.

to the wind



The socks have returned in a different color, along with some more plaid in the form of my clutch. Lately I've had flashbacks of J. Crew's Spring 2012 collection and its perfectly mixed prints, so I thought I'd get a head start before warmer weather arrives. Both the clutch and socks happen to be J. Crew, too - coincidence? I think not.

These shots were taken after an impromptu ride with Sally and Lovey landed us at

the want list: iPadding



marc by marc jacobs pretty printed iPad case (available here), rebecca minkoff metallic snake-stamped leather iPad case (available here), prada iPad cover (available here), louis vuitton iPad sleeve, michael kors snakeskin iPad cover (similar style here), gucci iPad sleeve (available here), j. crew iPad cover (similar style here), dolce and gabbana leopard printed iPad sleeve (similar style here), 3.1 phillip lim lynus fur iPad case (available here), emilio pucci printed pebbled leather iPad case (similar style here)


I've wanted an iPad ever since it came out two years ago. I'd play with my friends' iPads. I'd look online to view the features that it had. I decided I'd wait, because like everything Apple, the second you buy something, the next day they release something newer, faster, and better. This year, my always way too generous Uncle gave me money for Christmas- and I knew exactly what I would buy with it - a black iPad 2! (I bet you $10 that any day now they will announce that an iPad 3 is coming out.)

Its safe to say that I'm obsessed with my newest toy, and in order to keep my iPad looking fabulous and fashionable, I must buy some cases for it! These are my absolute favorite ones :D

My iPad was one of, if not THE favorite Christmas present of mine this year!
What was your favorite thing that you got for the holidays?
