Margaritaville

23 May

There are a number of things that inspire my style and New York City is definitely one of them. But of course it doesn’t stop at that! You all know by now that I am a big fan of boozing it up, and these days margaritas are kinda my jam. So when I was asked by Lucky Magazine to put together a style guide inspired by my city and the Grand Margarita, it was a no brainer! Snapped these pics all around the great Big Apple…in front of The Plaza Hotel, in Union Square Park, and en route to afternoon cocktails, of course!

Pop on over to Lucky Mag’s site and check out my full NYC Summer Style Guide!

Double Denim

20 May

A little denim on denim action! Well, kind of. I think the pants are actually some sort of polyester blend, but the important thing is that they look like denim, right? Whenever I start dressing more on the sophisticated side, I am always sure to throw on an edgy or playful piece to balance things out a bit. Like this biker vest I borrowed from Kim! Thank goodness for good friends with good style. <3

In Full Bloom

16 May

New York is one of those places where you come across something new and unexpected almost every day. By now I have walked through the West Village about a zillion times, but this particular stroll was a fun one. Obviously I am not the only Sex and the City fan here…well, remember that park where Miranda and Steve get married? This is it!! Even prettier in person, though, I must say. Blooming flowers everywhere, a cute little koi pond, and happy people just chilling out and enjoying springtime in the city. A quiet little gem right in the middle of this crazy concrete jungle…it’s things like this that make the city so magical.

In Distress

12 May

Gotta love a good pair of distressed denim…pretty much been living in this pair all weekend. But my jeans are not the only thing in distress lately! After my third apartment move in one year, I think I can officially say that the whole process is, like, the worst…ever.

BUT on a positive note, I am all unpacked and super excited to be back in the Lower East Side. Also, loving my new apartment – it even has a WALK IN CLOSET! Pumped. And Lola likes it too.

Off to enjoy the final weekend hours! Hope yours was great. <3

Westway

7 May

It has been really fun shooting photos in my new work neighborhood. Snapped these with my very talented friend Daisy along the West Side Highway…soaking up a little bit of that  ”golden hour” lighting! One of my favorite things about this time of year is how late the sun stays out. Just one more excuse to enjoy outdoor happy hours on the regs! As if I needed one…

Call It A Day

3 May

Just a casual look I wore to work earlier this week! Sometimes you just to throw on a good pair of high-waisted jeans , a basic striped tee, and call it a day.

Have a wonderful weekend! x

Twirl

29 Apr

Ultra springy in an Alice + Olivia puff skirt! Gotta love a piece that makes you want to twirl around like a little girl in a princess costume (I was totally that girl). Sometimes you just need to take a step back from grown up life, stop taking things so seriously, and have a little fun.
