Electric Feel

I decided to wear an electric red ruffle petal cardigan from JCrew to work yesterday to get me over Wednesday/hump day.  I paired the caridgan with a vintage floral blouse underneath and a wool pencil skirt from Proenza Schouler.  As I looked forward to the weekend this colorful cardigan brightened up my day!

Also wore navy ribbed tights and tan oxford pumps by BCBG.

Earring are from Forever 21.  A total steal and also very geometric and feminine.

My set of ruby, emerald, and sapphire stack flower rings from Kevia.

Hope everyone is having a bright and cheerful week!

Da Bombe

Last night I had a client dinner at Buddakan in Chelsea.  The food was amazing and I snapped some shots of the desserts we ordered.  The last was called the chocolate caramel bombe and it was definitely "the bomb" with a combination of caramel, honey, peanut butter and chocolate.  I think I could live off of that dessert!

To the dinner I wore a ribbon detailed circle skirt I got from the Limited ages ago.  I paired the skirt with a ruffled collar sheer grey blouse from JCrew (black tank underneath to be work appropriate).

Close up on the metal, pearl, and crystal loop and chain necklace I wore.  I snagged this tough looking chain at Aldo when I first moved to NYC.

Colon Stuart suede fringe ankle booties.

 

Stacking rings I also picked up at Aldo a few years ago.

If you ever have the chance to go to Buddakan in city I highly recommend seizing the opportunity.  The venue is beautiful, especially the main room with the super long dining table, and the food is amazing!

Bon Appetite!

Mimosa Dreams

This weekend I went to Il Bastardo in Chelsea for a Saturday brunch.  Mimosas were delicious!

I wore some casual wool shorts from Anthropologie with hunter green tights and my Deena and Ozzy multi-strap boots.  I paired the shorts with a simple white Hanes v-neck tee and a grey-blue crop cardigan from Forever 21.  I also wore my Bali dream catcher necklace by KT Designs.

Close up of the two rings I also wore - my snake ring and my wood block ring.

Beer Teardrops

After a long work week, I stayed in on Friday to have some fresh ravioli and sample some beers from Hog's Head beer of the month club.  I enjoy light beers and really liked the Grand Cru.  The Pale Ale was also pretty tasty.

I wore a multicolored Tracy Reese dress to work that day and since it's freezing in NYC, I also wore my beige ruffle front coat on top.  I paired the dress with my Forever 21 bubble necklace.

I've had these shoes forever & don't even know who they are by anymore, but the go with so many things & I love the stud detail on them!

I also wore this ring that actually came from Target!  It's a wooden tear drop with metal inset on the lower corner.  Such a fun piece to find at a mass retailer like Target!
