Well the snow screwed up this week pretty nicely. I only went into work for 2 days, luckily I had both my outfits planned already so I didn't even need to think about it.  They may look familiar as they're the outfit posts from this week.

But in these photos you get a teensy look at my new bedroom arrangement. Hopefully I'll have it fully organized soon so I can share it with you! Still have some odds and ends to fix up, like rearranging artwork and putting a curtain on my closet since I had to take the doors off to fit my furniture.

Tuesday: Jeans: J Brand c/o Marshalls, Sweater: Vertical Design c/o Marshalls, Boots: Chloé (Roundabout Resale), Bag: Chanel, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage, Brilliant Imports snake ring & Mom's

Thursday: Dress:  Marc by Marc Jacobs (Marshalls), Sweater: Ralph Lauren c/o Marshalls, Booties: No.704b. (DSW), Necklace: Geoclassics, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage, Brilliant Imports snake ring & Mom's

It wouldn't be a photoshoot with Lydia without tons of photos to share, so here are some extras that didn't make the post cut! I started out with almost 150 pictures, so narrowing down is always tough!

Outfit #1: Dress:  Marc by Marc Jacobs (Marshalls), Sweater: Ralph Lauren c/o Marshalls, Booties: No.704b. (DSW), Necklace: Geoclassics, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits

Outfit #2:  Jeans: J Brand c/o Marshalls, Sweater: Vertical Design c/o Marshalls, Boots: Chloé (Roundabout Resale), Bag: Chanel, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Rings: vintage, Brilliant Imports snake ring & Mom's 

Here is the second of my outfits from Marshalls (see the first)! Unfortunately my gift card only covered the sweater in this outfit, but the dress was totally worth it! Especially since I almost bought that exact dress on Gilt Groupe a few months back for $115. You truly never have to pay full price for fabulous as long as you head to Marshalls!

When I first picked out all the pieces I brought to my dressing room I didn't even think about pairing these two pieces together. But after I put the dress on I noticed that the orange in the sweater matched exactly - serendipity! I love how the sweater adds a bit of a rustic feel to the dressier dress.

Marc by Marc Jacobs Dress - $198 (regular price) -> $99.99 (Marshalls price) -> $69.99 (clearance price)
Ralph Lauren Sweater - $125 (regular price)  ->  $59.99 (Marshalls price) -> $44 (clearance price)

Dress:  Marc by Marc Jacobs (Marshalls), Sweater: Ralph Lauren c/o Marshalls, Booties: No.704b. (DSW), Necklace: Geoclassics, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Here's my Halloween 'costume!' Can you guess who I am?....no one?  WILLY WONKA! Willy Wonka is one of my all time favorite movies and over the Summer I realized I had all the pieces to create a girl version.  I always call this purple blazer my Willy Wonka jacket and this ASOS dress from a few years ago has a print just like on his shirt.  Meant to be, right?!  All I had to do was buy some ribbon so my mom could make me a big bow.  I decided to forgo the cane, but I did pick up a hat on eBay.

I'm not actually going anywhere but I thought it was fun and I'm wearing the outfit to work today. Minus the hat and bow, though I will bring them in my tote bag in case I feel like putting them on.

Dress: ASOS, Jacket: Gap (Coco's), Bow: Made by Mom, Hat: eBay, Booties: no.704b. (DSW)

And here's the inspiration:

I hope everyone had a wonderful week, I'm enjoying the fact that it is sunny when I'm going to work at 6:30 am and coming home at 6:30pm. Love Spring!  The only bad thing is the frequent rain storms that we see during Springtime, but they bring the flowers so it's okay by me.  This is going to be another busy weekend and I promise I'll tell you why next week, I just like the suspense, ha ha.  Even though it's not very exciting.

Looks like I was in a dress/skirts mood this week...with the exception of Thursday.  I really wish I wore them more often but it's just so awkward wearing them on the train.  I should just suck it up more, we'll see how that goes.

Happy Friday, I'm so glad it's the weekend...I need a break from busy-ness.  Getting up at 5:40am Monday-Thursday is starting to take a toll, I think I need a vacation. But that won't be happening for a while, we'll see though.  Other than being busy, this week was pretty good. I went out again on Tuesday with some co-workers, we went to Lure Fishbar in Soho.

This weekend I'm planning on staying home and doing some baking.  I'll probably go to my Grandmother's on Sunday as well, and probably to my parents', I haven't decided, ha ha.

The weather really needs to decide what it wants. I'm tired of this warm-ish then freezing weather! I went to work without a coat on Tuesday then on Wednesday it was back to being cold and windy. Looks like next week is supposed to be warmer (low 50s) though, so that's good!

A few weeks ago Sunglasses Shop offered to send me a pair of designer sunglasses for review! After looking through their selection of sunglasses I let them know some pairs I was lusting after.  They kindly sent over a pair of Marc by Marc Jacobs sunglasses and I am pretty much obsessed. I'm sure most of you already know the reason I love them but, for those of you that are new to Megan-land, I'll say it: they're PURPLE!!! YES!  I also love the shape, they're wayfarers and a bit oversized which is my favorite style (followed closely by cat-eye.)

The sunglasses came all the way from the UK and shipping was surprisingly quick, so no complaints there!  They have such an amazing selection from Burberry and Marc Jacobs sunglasses to RayBan and even Chanel! It is definitely worth checking out their offerings, you won't be disappointed.

I started the outfit with the sunglasses, and then grabbed my DIY owl shirt because the beads matched. Then the rest of the outfit formed itself. My new ($10!) oversized blazer was a perfect match for the tee, and I decided to go with a 70s vibe for the bottom half with some wide leg jeans and riding booties!

Song of the Day: Doctor My Eyes by Jackson Browne

Today is the last day of November...where has the year gone?!  It's strange how as you get older the time goes by so quickly.  This week seems to be the week of burgundy, except for Thursday, ha ha. Actually, I take that back...my shoes were burgundy on Thursday too!

It is starting to get really cold out outside and signs of Christmas are beginning to appear all around! I love it!  Unfortunately our office seems to think it's Summer and we were dying of heat all week.
