Over the Knee

I've had a pretty busy weekend and haven't had a chance to post for a while, but I did want to post this outfit from earlier in the week.  I decided to try out my grey suede over the knee boots while keeping the rest of my outfit pretty simple, since the boots are kind of a statement by themselves.  J Brand skinny jeans with purple H&M turtle neck.

Also worn with a lace and crystal Omri headband I picked up at Anthropologie and my Heather Benjamin druzy ring.  I really liked the way the purple sweater and blue headband looked together.

Grey Suede Sky Scraper


Having a hectic day, but wanted to do a quick post before crawling under my covers to la la land.  Wearing a hunter green boyfriend blazer from Zara, a white men's Hanes v-neck tee, and light blue AE skinny jeans.

I paired my outfit with these out of control suede Dolce Vita heels.  I love how sculptural & modern they are.  In Love!  

Wore a multi feathered headband I picked up at Arden B a few years ago.  Love how the different feathers are so beautiful together and the over all headband has a classy feel.

Also wore this vintage green beaded necklace.  The flower pendant at the end is really cool & reversible so even if the necklace flips over you're still showing a pretty flower image.
Have a good night all!

Winter White Plaid

To kick off the work week, I wore a super comfy winter white sweater dress layered with a ruffle neck paid blouse underneath, both from Victoria's Secret.  I paired the dress/shirt combo with HUE navy blue tights.

Close up of the KT collection necklace I paired with the outfit.  The gun metal chain is a part of a vintage purse chain re-purposed into a necklace.  I love the feminine/edgy feel this piece exudes.  It one of my favorite necklaces of my collection!

The inspiration around my outfit today was these Deena and Ozzy ankle booties.  I just got them last week after a long back order wait and I couldn't wait to work them into an outfit.  Love the ruggedness, the straps and the buckles and I can totally see myself getting a lot of wear out of these booties.

To add in some color I grabbed my Rebecca Minkoff  Devote tote.  I like how it contrasted against the navy tights and winter white sweater dress, while tying in the yellow lines in my shirt.  

Also wore with these two rings.  The red and yellow was a cheapie find from Forever 21.  I love the fabric look underneath the glass of the ring.  The gold ring was another great find from Urban Outfitters.  I couldn't resist when I saw how this ring cut across the fingers to make such a geometrical look.

Have to end the blog with one funny picture of my fur baby.  I caught him sniffing my beer yesterday afternoon and was able to catch a picture of it.  Don't worry he definitely didn't get a taste of it though.  He's only 7 after all.

Smokin'

Last night I went out to my favorite BBQ spot in NYC and decided  to wear my new "minus the" leather dress I scored at an Express after Christmas sale for very cheap.  The dress is animal friendly, but looks and feels like leather.  I paired it with black tights and a long grey sweater from the gap that I tied at the waist line.

Sipping some Brooklyn Pilsner in between my BBQ feast.

The yummy Kansas City ribs we ordered...after we already ate some!  So much food!  We also had the pulled pork, which was my fav, mac and cheese, hush puppies, and corn bread.

I paired my dress with these BCBG suede and multi colored snake skin pumps that I scored earlier in the day.  The tops of these shoes are so cool and have snake skin ribbing woven across the toe.
I also wore this tweed clutch from JCrew.

And a silver stud ring from Forever 21.  I didn't get a close up of my necklace, but it is made up of mixed metal chains in copper, bronze, gold, silver, and gunmetal.  Very fun and edgy piece.
