Goodbye summer! Hello fall 2016! I literally live for fall, my style today was a mix of summer and fall. The weather was perfect, it wasn't too hot nor cold. It was just perfect. I paired my favorite hollister boyfriend jeans with a forever21 sleeveless trench coat. These studded ankle boots are everything. I scored a great deal with them at zara about 2 years ago and our love relationship is still going strong. I am so excited for the fall season, everything is better in the fall. 

Taxi. Not much more to say. I put this outfit on and I just felt like I looked like a New York City cab, and I burst out laughing. I like the outfit, and thought it looked cute, but I thought it would be a really cool idea to take a couple pics in the midst of some cabs. I originally envisioned me standing in a sea of cabs zooming by, but then I was brought back to reality, and knowing how NYC cab drivers drive, I decided to scope out some parked cabs in front of a hotel lol. We went to the first hotel but all the cabs were gone! I didn't let that stop me though, Buife and I were on a mission! So we kept looking and saw some cabs dropping off and picking up passengers in front of another hotel and decided to try it. Everything was happening so fast, and I kept trying to get shots with cabs before they moved! Let's just say, I almost got hit a couple times, but, no biggie ;). (Scroll to the last pic to see when I realized I actually valued my life). I literally had to chase down cabs before I could get a couple shots. At the end of it all, I had so much fun and I think (most) of the pics turned out great!

I'm such a girly girl, pink is one of my absolute favorite colors, if not my favorite color, so it should be no surprise that I gravitated towards this baby pink jumpsuit when I saw it. I knew I had to bring it with me to Miami. Miami was so much fun, and our hotel had a little rooftop pool/bar we decided to check out. There was this life sized chess board there and I thought it would be great to take a picture with it! This hotel rooftop was the perfect spot to photograph this outfit. It was cool, and had the perfect breeze, with a beautiful view of the ocean.

Fashionable duo was out in South Beach, Miami for a mini vacay and the weather was absolutely gorgeous. We spent a good amount of time on both land and sea, not really sure which i like better lol. Went for a walk on this dock (in flats) then decided to get my heels and have a little photo shoot. This was just across the street from our hotel, but you really don't have to go far because the beautiful palm trees made the whole area look like paradise. I really love this short suit because it has a little sugar and spice element to it, and of cause I had to pair it up with a simple crop top and my favorite Zara studded heels. 

 

I should talk about the choker necklace, which I love, but my favorite thing out of this whole outfit is my Quay (pronounced Key) Australia "My Girl" sunglasses. They are so cool! I got them a while ago, and they are most likely sold out now. I just love the bug-eyed shape they have, and the super cool blue tinted mirrored lens. Ok, now back to the choker. I actually borrowed it from Buife, and since it's a little much, I decided to wear a simple black dress from Zara, a beige cardigan, and topped it off with my Kenneth Cole sandals.   

Ahhh!!! I love these espadrilles so much! They are the perfect spring/summer shoes and I cant wait to continue to rock them this summer. Once I saw them, I knew I had to get them, plus, they give me a little extra height which I always love ;)!  When you look good, you feel good, and I was feeling great in these wedge espadrilles! These shoes also come in a lovely coral, blush, and black and can be found here! 

 

A little fun fact about the day I wore these shoes: my sisters and I were coming back home from a concert in Manhattan, and were LITERALLY 58 seconds from missing our train. We got out the connecting train at Penn station and made a mad dash to the track which at the time, seemed like the farthest track away. I ran like a professional athlete in these espadrilles (Rio 2016 anyone?) and was so surprised we were able to make it with only a couple seconds to spare. So, not only do these shoes look good, when the time presents itself, they can also double as trusty running shoes ;)

Turning 28..... for some reason that number 28 scared me a bit. It is something I have thought about for weeks. 28 means so many things, but most of all, it means that I am two years closer to 30. Have I achieved everything I want to achieve or everything society says that I should have achieved at the age of 28? I approached the day with caution and tried not to over think it. 

April 22nd came and immediately I was overwhelmed with love, and not a worry in the world. As I got on the train to the city and looked at everyone around me, I quickly realized that I'm the only one that can put an age bracket on what I need to achieve in life. Whether I'm turning 30 or 40, it doesn't matter. I am never too old or young to achieve whatever my heart desires.

I hope everyone's day is as bright as this banana republic shift dress. I decided to pair it with a bold statement necklace that was gifted to me by a dear friend. Spring is finally getting to New York, so I'm excited to pull more bright colors from my closet.

I'm not really into the glitters and glam, but there is something about this sweater that I was drawn to. I paired the top with my favorite boyfriend jeans (expect to see a lot of it on the blog) and black studded clog sandals that I absolutely love. Don't be fooled by the sun, it was 20 degrees in New York. Oh Spring Where Art Thou!!!

This past Sunday was Easter, so I wore this beautiful peach peplum dress. Peach is such a nice pastel color, and one of my spring faves. The peplum style was a huge trend a couple of years ago, but it hasn't gone out of style.  I think that's because it has a way of adding a nice figure to the person wearing it. The trumpet style of the top half has gives the illusion of a smaller waist. An added bonus: you don't have to worry if you eat too much food ;) 

Happy Easter Sunday!!! Boyfriend jeans are my favorite to wear, they have a way of making an outfit look uptown chic. I chose to dress the jeans up with this asymmetrical sweater which by the way, is pretty comfortable. I love the pop of color that these green pumps give the outfit, it brings so much life and attention to it.

I was in what I'd like to call a "denim mood" so i pulled this midi denim sleeveless dress out the closet and paired it with a simple black top and platform ankle boots.

 

Black is a color that runs deep in my closet. I have found that for me the best way to style black is with another black piece. This turtleneck and pleated leather skirt go so well together and i decided to bring a statement to this outfit by adding an animal print belt and tan pumps.

Nothing like taking a nice stroll in the city when the weather's perfect! Not too hot, not too cold. (I kinda feel like Goldilocks! LOL) My red Tory Burch buckle tote added a nice pop of color to this outfit. Red is such a nice color: whether it's bags, shoes, or lips, it tends to bring a level of class to whoever is wearing that certain red accessory. Also, jeans and heels is a new favorite combo of mine, being 5'11, I'm slowly getting used to wearing heels more! 

How Cute is this fluffy sweater? It feels just as cozy as it looks. I found out in 7th grade during art class that pink and grey go very well together, when I created and painted a beautiful paper mâché mask. Ever since then, whenever the opportunity arises to pair soft pink with grey in my outfit, I take it.

 

As the weather approaches Spring, I found it only fitting to bring out my red purse to add a pop of color to this look. Even though the jewel embellishments on the green sweater makes it stand out, the bag takes this outfit to a whole other level.

One look I'm loving is the monochromatic look. Monochromatic outfits tend to have a completed and polished look to them. Today, I decided to go with the color grey. It kind of went along with the chilly bipolar winter we're having here in NY.
