When I'm heading out the door for dinner, I most often reach for a clutch to throw in all of my necessities (ie. lipstick, phone, keys, etc). Whether it be white and subdued or a pop of color, I really can't seem to get enough. Here are few that have recently caught my eye. Eeeekkk, is it bad that I want all four? A girl can dream.
Yesssss, I feel like myself again. Dudes, being THAT sick really did a number on me and made me truly appreciate the fact that I rarely get sick. So now that I'm back to the land of the living, I am excited for this weekend as we have many fun things planned. So, I might be hitting the hay a bit early this evening to rest up. Happy Friday everyone and stay well.

My dream is to cover an entire ceiling with light bulbs, ala the Gramercy Park Hotel, for a party. I mean, does it really get any better than that? Those images (seen in the bottom photos) have been forever etched in my mind. And really, any sort of canopy of lights is high on my list of party must-haves. Pretty, lighting just really sets the mood for an amazing time!
Oh hellllllo there, I am back. Apologies for my little hiatus, but I got a bad case of food poisoning that literally knocked me on my back for a few days. Wowza. Well, thank goodness that's over and here I am. And while I do my best to get back into the swing of things, here are a few cozy comforts that have been on my mind this week while my poor little stomach has healed. Hope you are all feeling well.
It's funny, you would think that living in a big city would make you want to escape it for a calmer more serene spot on the weekends, but that hasn't quite happened for us. We love being in the hustle and bustle in our daily lives and when it comes to the weekends, we try to stay right here. And if we happen to travel somewhere on vacation, it seems that we are pulled in the direction of yet another city. I mean, don't get me wrong, we do love laying by the pool with a book in hand like anyone else, but mostly when we talk about our dream vacations it involves traveling to a city. Hello, Sydney, London, Paris...I'm looking at you! What about you? Do your vacation dreams consist of laying low on an exotic beach, or do they look more like restaurant hopping in the concrete jungle?

What the what, it's been far too long since I've posted a modern budget piece, so here I am. After the fun filled wedding weekend, we hopped on the road and you know I just had to stop by a Target and try to snag a purse from the latest collaboration with Phillip Lim. Unfortunately I was too late and they were all sold out, but I did pick up these booties and they are insane! They will be in heavy rotation this fall. And what would I pair with these shoes? My two favorite looks as of late are the floral dress and black/white ensemble. Hello fall time, I am so ready for you!
Happy Friday. We are off to another wedding this weekend...yay! I've been to so many weddings, you'd think by now I'd have a well thought out plan of what to wear, but last night I got a bit panicked and tried on pretty much my entire closet. I finally found something, and then couldn't figure out how I would do my hair. I'm thinking of wearing it up (gasp!). Nothing too crazy. A fishtail braid or a messy ponytail both seem like a good fit for me.
This look is perfect and it reminds me of why I love the city we live in so much. Layering is a part of my daily dressing and I can't get enough of a little faux leather jacket over a girly white dress. And when fall/winter hits, you know I'll be adding a beanie into the mix.
