Getting ready for fall in the city. I love way the air smells and the small streets in the West Village are full of rustling leaves. This outfit is becoming my go-to fall look (these rag and bone jeans feel like pajamas). Nothing is more easy than a white tee.

LW in DC

My family took a small trip to New York City then Washington, DC. Since I had time off of work Joe and I decided to take a road trip (the most fun ever) and meet them in D.C.. Since I have been to the city to sight see mulpitle times we took this trip to enjoy ourselves at the roof-top pool, shop, and eat. If you follow me on twitter you know exactly each place I went to. I just love how up-and-coming the city is; the shops in Georgetown stretch for miles and include Rag & Bone and Kate Spade while, there are both new restaurants (Mike Isabella's restaurant Graffiato is a must) and old ones, like Serendipity 3 from my new home in New York. I had such a great time surrounded by the modern city and my family.

Party In The Back

I'm never really a fan of the element of surprise; my boyfriend can vouge for me. My days are packed with multiple schedules and if something isn't there it isn't happening. Without my schedule my life feels like an utter cluster and complete mess. I'm trying to work on being less organized and enjoying things as they come, but when it comes to clothing surprise can be a good thing.

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.

My weekends have been feeling busier than ever so I took a second to go to the beach so my life can stand still for a moment with the sand beneath my toes. I'll miss having this just minutes away from my home when I move to New York City (yes, that's my big announcement). I am feeling so many emotions that I have become numb to the whole moving process. I'm lucky to have the support of everyone and that's the thing that keeps me moving.  

The Perfect Blazer

I'm not one to wear blazers. For my petite 5'1 frame they always seemed like I am a little child wearing a blazer that is two times too big for me. If that wasn't the case it then look liked I was trying too hard to be a business professional (something that I am not - not yet at least). Is was never something that I would grab to throw over a top or dress until I found this one from DVF. The style fit me perfectly and the silk jersey makes it both casual or dressy. Finally a (lonely) blazer for my closet.

Days Off

I used to think that my days off would have to consist of errands and getting the most done in the small amount of time I have available. It would cause me nothing but stress and I never felt like I had a day to myself. Lately I have been pushing myself to enjoy my days off by doing nothing at all. I stay in bed longer, read magazines from front to back, and enjoy my cup of coffee sitting. To be the most comfortable that I can I opt for flats (my cole haans with nike air are amazing) and jeggings (jean-leggings). Both keep me super comfortable while staying chic. My J.Crew top was a gift for Christmas and I love the exaggerated jewels on the neck line. It is the easiest piece to throw on for a casual day - no jewelry is required. 

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! 

In Anticipation

Ever since it became December I have been patiently anticipating the first snow fall. For some reason it is just magical and beautiful. The news had claimed that it would snow yesterday so I waited but nothing happened. I know once the snow starts falling I will be begging for it to be the summer but I still can't wait for the snow to fall.

These boots {also seen here} are my favorite because you can wear them folded {seen here} or unfolded. But the suede makes them unwearable in the snowy season so I am getting all my wear out of them now.

Constants

These pieces are all constantly in my day to day outfits. I am drawn to each piece (at different times) and feel as though they are on repeat. I decided to put them together in one outfit for a post in hopes of getting them out of my system so I can wear other pieces. The jacket (here and here) is more than comfortable and is the easiest thing to throw over an outfit to make it complete. I never thought I would wear these jeggings as much as I do but they really are amazing. I advice everyone to get a pair :).

Over-sized

As the weather gets colder I feel myself getting lazier and lazier. The only thing I want to do is lay in bed watching re-runs of Sex and The City while my boyfriend cooks his delicious homemade dinners. The one thing I will get out of bed for is to shop. But since it is a new month and the holidays are approaching, I made a promise to myself not to splurge on anything (my mother would be so proud). One of my last purchases was this over-sized jacket from Madewell. It's easy to throw on, matches with almost everything and keeps me warm (it's so big I love it).
