Winter White Outfit


Who doesn’t love an all white outfit? It’s minimal but so chic. I purchased these white trousers from J.Crew and what’s great about them is the quality. Though J.Crew sizes can be off sometimes, I have a couple trousers from them that fit-to-the-T. That included not having to tailor them in anyway and that’s a HUGE win for me.

I paired it here with a blouse from Storets and Sweater from Madewell. This was a first purchase through Storets, a Korean Clothing Brand, and it did not disappoint. And I’ve always loved Madewell clothing for their brand mission, quality clothes at an affordable price.


What are your thoughts about an all monochromatic outfit? Or do you prefer mixing colors?

Wild in The City with J.Crew

Who doesn’t love a leopard coat? I believe in the last month or so I have worn this print to death (as you will probably see in next few posts). But it is a staple in my wardrobe so I don’t mind at all. ;D

What do you find yourself wearing most this Winter?

Winter Skirt : How – To


I didn’t think I would like pairing midi skirts with OTK boots but was I wrong! It was all about the right proportions. And once I got on this train, I enjoyed it even more than I thought, especially for colder weather.

For my height of five feet this skirt falls 23″, 4″ longer than what I normally prefer but it worked because the skirt is body skimming. And might I add, the print is small enough that it doesn’t swallow me from my torso down.

You can pair it with tights and tall ankle booties or with OTK boots like I have here. You can still look chic while staying warm.

What do you think about this look? Do you like this cold weather style or prefer pants all the way?

Blazer Boss

Blazers are a great staple piece that everyone should have. There are a few styles: straight- cut, boyfriend, single-breasted, slim fit, linen and the list goes on. But there’s a style for everyone.
Here, I belted mine so I can accentuate my waist, which is the smallest part on my body.
Blazers are a HUGE part of my wardrobe. I have several that I wear in many ways.
How do you feel about blazers? Do you own any?

Wardrobe Staple

In my post HERE, I wrote about the wonders of when I found the right coat. And this coat is the same exact one, except it’s in a classic camel color. Though it’s traditional, I will wear it so much.
I believe everyone should have a go-to camel coat. It’s a staple and it goes well with everything.

The Perfect Coat


It took me forever to find the perfect coat and when I did I purchased it in this berry-burgundy shade and in the classic camel color. I cannot express how frustrating it was to find something of .. 1. the perfect length, 2. the sleeves didn’t have to be tailored too much, and
3. the coat wouldn’t drown me.

The coat measures 33″ in length on me and the sleeves were 32″ so I took it in 2 3/4″. Now it’s perfectly tailored and I will wear it for seasons to come!

Did you have trouble finding that ONE perfect piece? And if you did find it, what happened? I would love to hear your story so comment below. 🙂

Gemini Link – Thrifted

I love a good thrift find .. like this Tory Burch Gemini Bag for six whole dollars! I went in to find something else that I would use once but ended up with this purchase instead. I didn’t grow up a thrift shopper at all (not that I was against it) but I didn’t find interest in it until I was in my early 20’s.
And now I find good treasures that used to have a story behind them.
How do you feel about thrift shopping? And have you found a good treasure from it?

Satin Skirt Trend

I’m currently obsessing over this satin skirt trend. It’s so comfortable (a little thin for Winter Wear) and can be dressed up or down. I paired it with a wool sweater and love it for the office!


If you’re thinking of trying a trend this season, you should go with this one. You won’t think twice.
