It's my last post of 2016, so sad! Speaking of, that means it's time to reset my wardrobe update count. I didn't buy anything this month - GO ME! I did a pretty good job this year with some hits and misses in purchases. I'm quite proud of what I spent too, definitely less than the past few years! All in all I spent $1470.25 (that's not counting Christmas, birthday and advertising money) I did ma

Here's what I wore for our Christmas Day celebrations! We headed to my Grandmothers as we do most Sundays but this one was more exciting because it was Christmas! Duhhh! My cousins from Ohio came in and it was my cousin's baby's first Christmas! Babies always add more excitement to holidays, don't they? I'm headed off to London tonight so I'll say Happy New Year now! I won't be posting, except

I hope everyone had a great Christmas weekend spent with family! (Or a regular weekend for those who don't celebrate)  Only two outfit posts left for 2016, guys! Both are my Christmas outfits and then I'll be leaving you until 2017. I'm headed to London tomorrow night to spend New Years with the Brits.  Blouse: Jason Wu (Roundabout Resale), Skirt: Lauren Conrad c/o Kohl's, Tights c/o

It's Christmas Eve tomorrow, guys!!!! Tonight is one of my favorite Christmas-related days because it's the night my family watches our favorite Christmas movie - Scrooge! It's a musical starring Albert Finney and it is perfection. If you haven't seen it GO. NOW. WATCH. Last night a smaller piece of the family (aka everyone but my brothers) watched White Christmas and the night before was Holida

Decided to go with a bit of green in today's throwback since it's Christmas this weekend! This is the second to last outfit I wore to work in NYC. The company I was working for at the time finally allowed me to start working from home every day after this. Woohoo! Ha ha. I switched this up a TEEEEENY bit by tucking in the sweater to show off the high-waist of the skirt. Sweater: Kenar c/o Marsha

We're only five days away from Christmas!! WOOO!! Even though this look is mainly black, it does have a holiday vibe thanks to the patchwork blazer. It's one of my favorites because I know I'll never see anyone else wearing it. And if I do, we'll be instant BFFs. Patchwork Blazer: Etro (Roundabout Resale), Tee:  Everlane, Patchwork Jeans: Free People, Pumps: Coach 'Nacie' (Amazon)

As we get closer to the holidays I'm drawn toward sparkles and red/green. I wore this to check out Roundabout's Roundaboutlet a couple weekends ago. Everything in the space, including Chanel was 75% off. Sadly, or luckily for my wallet, everything I liked was either too big or too small. But it's always fun to hunt for things anyway. Sweater:  rag & bone (eBay), Jeans: J Brand '811 Phot

I usually layer this turtleneck under my bigger sweaters because it's very thin. But on this day it was a little warmer so I decided to just wear a vest over the top.  I quite like the mix of teal and dark gray/black and the super soft fur. Definitely a look for days when you want to be super comfortable. Vest: Simply Vera Wang c/o Kohl's, Turtleneck: Vanessa Bruno (Coco's $10 sale), Jeans

It's been a few weeks since my last throwback outfit, but other things have taken over, oops! I quite like this outfit because it's dressy but still cozy thanks to the super long sweater from J Crew. Dress: Diane von Furstenberg (Coco's on the Green), Sweater: J.Crew (Roundabout Resale), Boots: eBay, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La) The Original:

Here's one of my new buys from last month - a super soft purple tee by Vince! I got it for $20 at The Outnet, way better than it's retail price of $135. Not sure I would EVER spend that on a tee, even if I had all the money in the world. But it is mighty soft! Decided to go with some more purple for it's first outing. I wore this on a lazy Sunday and to help my mom do some Christmas shopping for
