Bronze Tunic

I love an easy slip-on tunic, and this one from ShopbellaC is so feminine and flattering. Tunic’s are so versatile – from laid back beach styles to dressier versions, the tunic truly is a must have in a fashionista’s closet. The weather here has been somewhat crazy hence this outfit called for a faux fur vest (+ I wanted to add an extra dimension). Not to mention, part of me just feels so luxe being wrapped up in soft, faux fur, and it keeps me warm!

As always, thanks much for reading but don’t leave just yet – because…

Plaid Shirt

Happy Friday, lovelies! So happy you stopped by! Today is all about plaids! I’ve been wanting a plaid shirt for the longest time because when you find a good one, it can stay in your wardrobe for years. But the comfy cozy must-have, doesn’t have to be causal. Paired with faux leather pants, a blanket scarf (told you I was obsessed!) and some sassy heels – a plaid shirt creates a great look for a fun night out. What do you think of my look? Tell me in the comments.

As always, thanks much for reading & have a fabulous weekend!

Tassel Scarf

Happy Wednesday, darlings! Glad you stopped by! Today I’m layering it up with my new tassel scarf from OASAP. Chicago has been somewhat mild this winter which allowed me play a bit more with fashion. Like today. I loved walking around in my tassel scarf (which is reversible & has pockets!!), and by the way, it’s funny, the older I become the more I love scarfs. A few years ago I was certainly not a scarf-addict but now it seems that I have a bit of problem because I already own six! It’s crazy – I just love, love, LOVE them! But who cares?! Even if they will become “old fashioned” later on – we do know that “What’s old fashioned will become really cool one day again right?”

As always, thanks much for reading & have a great day!

Much love!

What’s In My Bag?!

Today I decided to give you a chic peek of what’s inside my bag because let’s face it: Our handbag/purse is our sanctuary, am I right?! My handbag holds all of my knickknacks and daily deeds. And let’s not forget: The contents of one’s bag oftentimes tell you a whole lot about its owner! So, here’s to a chic peek inside my bag, and ultimately my soul! Enjoy!

Daily Planner/Calendar: I truly cannot live without my daily planner. Each day I write down all of my tasks for the day, and once I accomplish them I actually mark them off with a pretty check mark! Yep, I’m that detail-oriented!

Sole Serum: This is the BEST thing ever. I pretty much live in heels, so whenever I feel like my feet are starting to hurt I apply Sole Serum on my feet! I’ll let it dry for a few seconds… et voilà! Pain no more, and my heels are back on! Seriously, it’s like Advil for your feet!

bareMinerals Lipgloss: Simply a must-have to keep my lips moisturized and hydrated throughout the day.

IPhone: How else would I be able to stay in touch with you all?! #socialmediafreak

IPad: I need help. #seriouslysocialmediacrazy

Business cards: I mean you never know who you are going to meet, besides, it’s super professional. Ha!

Chanel Perfume: My favorite scent, and my hubby loves it too.

Sunglasses: These Illesteva sunglasses are by far my favorite. I wear them all the time, like ALL THE TIME.

Wallet: Essential.

As always, thank you for reading & have a fabulous weekend!

PS: Thank You to those who have entered my GIVEAWAY with Albion Fit! We have a winner: It is Merrie K., style blogger at PetiteCareerGirl! Congratulations, love!

Destroyed Denim

I picked up these destroyed denim back in New York City when I visited Fashion Week two years ago. After the show(s) my girlfriends and I decided to go to SOHO for some shopping, and boy (!) did we go crazy! No sales tax got us especially giddy (we are used to paying 9% in Chicago sales tax!). Back then I was on the search for the perfect pair of destroyed denim, and got really lucky when we entered a tiny boutique just outside of SOHO. It really is the perfect staple for spring (I know it is still winter but HEY (!) – we had 43 degrees the last couple of days!) worn with a fun tee or chic top (in my case it’s a peplum top). My favorite way to wear distressed jeans is to combine it with edgy ankle booties, though. It’s ideal for when you want to look cool but not like you’re trying too hard. I added a funky statement necklace and fun vest as well (from NYC also) for even more edge because…Can you ever have enough edge?!

As always, thanks much for visiting & have a fabulous day!
