Hot Child In The City

The temperatures keep on rising in the city and every time I try to escape to the beach rain ruins my plans. My cool me off is a daily iced latte from Ninth Street Espresso. The prices can be steep for a cup of joe but it is completely worth it. This is one of the my most simple maxi dresses that I own this season. The fit transitions so easy from day to night. My only concern is the piece of string that was suppose to be a sash belt. It just is so unnecessary that I turn it into a bracelet instead.

When I love something I find myself wearing it over and over again no matter how many options I have. For example; my new Chloe sunnies (that I got super cheap at the Nordstrom half-yearly sale) I must have over ten pairs of sunglasses but I am constantly reaching for these ones when I step out for the day. I love how the size over powers my face but the small details give them a feminine touch. This picture was shot by my bestie Jess of Hell or High Fashion during my goodbye over coffee on Newbury Street in Boston. Even though it's only been two weeks since then both of our lives have become so different.

the weekend is finally here and all i can do is long for sunday; my favorite time of the week. it's the one weekend day that anything can be pulled together for the perfect casual outfit for brunch and some light shopping. joe took these pictures of me last sunday, the last day of my long weekend move to NYC. the weekend felt as though it would never end and i really didn't have an intention on the week beginning. but it's time in my life for this new adventure and i am so happy and grateful.

My life feels like an absolute mess; my days are filled with errands, packing, and organizing while my nights are spent saying bye to some of my best friends. Today finally felt like my day off so I decided to go on a more casual route with my outfit. I have been itching to go shopping but know that the shopping in New York City is not even close to comparable. My wallet and closet will thank me for waiting.

It's Vintage

 Even though the sun was out yesterday the cold still was present. I was completely tired of dressing for the cold and stupidly opted to not wear tights. A pair of bare legs looks better over tights any day.Thank god I was only walking one and a half blocks from the car to the coffee shop. I was excited to wear my Diane von Furstenberg dress from the Diane Collection which launched in Boston yesterday. The line is made of new pieces with Diane's signature vintage prints from 1974. The line screams prints and color which is everything Diane stands for and something I need to see more of in my closet.

In Order

 I have found myself lately reaching for wallets and/or clutches rather than handbags. I don't know if it's the chill in the air or that I am in a complete rush (since my life as been so busy lately). I am still waiting for the first snow fall in New England I don't know what I'll wear but I'm ready. I am also proud to say that this is another {post} with my hair up (yay) - even though it fell half way to where I wanted to shoot photos - im learning though.
