Caped Crusader

Cape:  c/o Sheinside, Dress (worn as top): c/o Sheinside, Jeans:  AG, Bag:  Mansur Gavriel, Shoes:  Classiques Entier (old, love this similar pair), Earrings:  c/o LilahV, Sunnies:  Ray-Ban

It's unusual to be having fifty degree weather in December in NJ.  The day after Christmas felt more like Easter time. Lucky for me, the warm weather has provided the perfect opportunity to break out my new colorful cape.

But New Jerseyans know better than to be fooled but the unseasonable temperatures. Better enjoy it while it lasts!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful week!

Winter Pastels

Coat:  Victoria's Secret (very very old, great option here), Sweater:  Zara (old, similar here), Jeans:  7FAM, Shoes:  J.Crew (old, similar here, here), Necklace:  Anthropologie x Bauble Bar, Sunnies:  Forever 21

The weather this weekend was absolutely gorgeous. You know you have been living in the polar vortex when 50 degrees has you super excited. This desperately-needed reprieve put me in the mood for some springy pastels, which was my motivation when getting dressed on Sunday.

I never realized what a luxury it was to be able to leave the house wearing heels rather than snow boots!

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Coat:  J.Crew (old, great option here ~ on sale!), Jeans:  Forever 21, Hat:  Anthropologie (sold out, very similar here), Shoes:  Zara (similar here), Bag:  Forever 21 (similar here), Sunnies:  Forever 21

Sunday ~ by far my favorite day of the week. The day I typically spend with my best friend/love of my life from beginning to end.

Yesterday was no exception. We went to brunch and then drove around looking for a clearing to take a photograph. It was seriously slim pickings. I'm keeping my fingers crossed as there are rumors of temps in the 50s this week!

Happy Monday!

Pom-Pom

Blazer:  Forever 21 (old, similar here), Top:  H&M (similar here under $10!), Jeans:  Forever 21, Boots:  Sperry, Bag:  c/o GiGi New York, Hat:  Anthropologie (sold out, very similar here), Sunnies:  Ray-Ban

Casual Friday is finally here and it couldn't come soon enough this week! The single-digit temperatures left me dreaming of wearing long underwear and puffer jackets. Unfortunately, the aforementioned garments do not qualify as 'smart and stylish' and therefore I found myself in my normal business attire, donning these cute {and warm} new boots and walking into work heels in hand.

Happy weekend!

Bundled

Coat:  J.Crew (old, similar here), Jeans:  Citizens of Humanity, Shoes:  Christian Louboutin (great budget-friendly option here), Bag:  Forever 21 (loving this Reed Krakoff look-alike for under$30!), Scarf:  J.Crew, Sunnies:  Ray-Ban

Hope everyone is staying warm!

Happy hump day!

Winter Wonderland

I'm a little late posting this morning due to the wicked headache I had last night. I attribute the headache to the frigid cold and dry weather conditions we have been experiencing lately. I'm soooo over winter already and we aren't even a month in yet! This is going to be a VERY long 3-4 months. Okay, enough whining.

On a cheerful note, I FINALLY picked out my Christmas present from my husband and am very excited to share it with you later this week. I feel that it is a fabulous addition to my wardrobe. Be sure to follow me on Instagram for the big reveal!

Happy Monday everyone!
