The Brutal Winter

 These Sam Edelman shoes are my favorite because they remind me of Sergio Rossi shoes. They were a pain to walk in at first but ever since I wore them in a little they have been amazing.

Words can not even describe how brutal the winter has been in Boston especially for a blogger. It has driven me into a blogging limbo lately. I have no motivation to bare the chilly days, lack of sun, and mile-high snow mounds for a couple shots of my outfits. I finally got the courage to brave the weather today and even though it wasn't as sunny as I hoped the weather was nicer than it has been for weeks.  

For those of you who follow my twitter you already know that I recently got invisiline. Even though I have only had them for a month I can already see the changes in both my smile and my teeth. I am so happy with the results thus far and it can only get better & straighter!

I am so happy to be home & spend the day / week with my family for Thanksgiving (tomorrow!!). I miss sleeping in my bedroom and having my sister around me constantly.But more importantly I'm glad to spend time around others who indulge in more helpings of mashed potatoes (I think I could live off them if I had to).

I'm not lying when I say that I have been living in my faux fur vest & that I always pair it with fierce animal prints (guilty & guilty). The vest works easily with everything; from a dress to jeggings and is more than easy to just throw on and stay warm.

I absolutely hate that the days feel shorter and how it gets darker earlier. As soon as I was ready to step out for my usual photos the sky was beginning to turn to night (and it was only 4:00 pm!). I have been living in my faux fur vest {thank you Beso} and for some reason I keep pairing it with leopard (here). When I put on the vest I feel so fierce that it lets my inner animal out and draws me towards animal prints. ROAR. I was so excited when I found these stir-up tights hidden in my draw (they will be the next thing I live in.)

Beso {Giveaway}

Beso approached me to host a giveaway on my blog which I am completely thrilled about. I have been a fan of their website for a while now since it is my "one-stop shop". I refer to it as my virtual shopping mall where I can shop a selection of brands at one location and in my comfy bed (That is where the best online shopping takes place).

A faux fur vest {seen above}, it is the perfect piece for the cold winter that is approaching. When I received it I knew it was the faux fur for my winter collection.
