Before I get to my post check out my feature on Smashion!

Yesterday we had the day off work for President's Day.  I was looking forward to being very productive, doing a fun outfit shoot and relaxing. But that didn't happen. I did nothing until 4pm and then I decided to finally do something.  I got out my fashion magazines that I picked up from my parent's house yesterday to read and took some photos of my new Alligator pin! I actually got this a few weeks ago when I visited a friend at Yale, but haven't found the perfect way to wear him yet.  Then I realized that he matches my DKNY coat perfectly! So he has a new permanent spot in my closet and will finally start seeing the daylight! (in the summer I'll have to find some other ways to wear him)

Coat: DKNY, Pin: Laila Rowe in New Haven $10, Magazines: Vogue, Elle, Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire

And for those of you that don't follow me on Instagram here are some shots from the past 2 weeks.

I wasn't all too fond of the February issue of VOGUE, but I loved the Gangs of New York editorial! Sadly I couldn't find large versions of all the pages, so there is half of the Rodarte and Michael Kors in large, and then a medium version for the full spreads, ha ha.  I think my favorite is the Ralph Lauren spread, the clothes and girls are just so gorgeous!! I remember loving that collection when it first came out. Click to see them all larger in a lightbox :)

I wasn't planning on posting this today but I love it so much! This is Emma's first shoot for VOGUE and she looks GREAT!  I really love these photos, they are cute, pretty and fashionable!  As you all know I love Emma Watson, she has a personal style that is all her own and she looks gorgeous wearing anything.  I am still not totally in love with her new hair, but it's slowly growing on me so I figure I'll love it soon.

This is the December Issue of VOGUE UK (anyone wanna buy it for me since I'm in the US? ;) ).  The shoot was by Mario Testino and I think he did a great job of capturing Emma's spirit in these photos.

This shoot is a little odd, but the clothes are soooo gorgeous!! The model is really pretty, she has s a nymph-like look to her.  My favorites are the first, fourth, sixth and eighth.

I saw this shoot a few days ago on foto_decadent and I fell in love with the shots of Sasha! The others I don't love as much but they are good too. You can see all the photos at the previous link.
