zigzag chevron

 Francesca's top // Marshalls pants // Michael Shannon boots //  Etienne Aigner purse // Michael Kors watch

It's no surprise that I love chevron, and this shirt is a fun stylized version of one of my favorite prints. It was also the perfect top to wear in this crazy weather-not too hot but not too cold, and flowy enough to cope with the wind!

red & camel

Old Navy coat // Forever 21 sweater // Charlotte Russe necklace // Volcom jeans // UO flats // 

Fossil watch // Relic satchel

Of course the one weekend I decide to go home to VB, it snows. Completely unprepared, I packed flats and no coat. Despite the fact that I had to borrow my mom's way too small pea coat and had a couple of near death experiences slipping on ice- I have to say I'm really liking this red and camel color combo. Maybe my inability to pack appropriately worked in my favor... this time.

lazy day

 Marshall's chambray top // Forever 21 cardigan // Karen Scott boots // Michael Kors watch

This is the perfect outfit for a lazy day: comfortable, casual, and multi-layered. 

I also have no idea what the graffiti says on the last picture (it didn't seem offensive though!) but I couldn't resist a photo-op!

Rose Gold

H&M shirt // Target cardigan // Madewell jeans // Relic satchel  // Gifted watched // Etsy // AJ Morgan shades 

This rose gold watch is my favorite new accessory. Apparently I will never have enough watches. Tortoise is next.

tortoise shell obsessed

 Michael Kors watch // Marshall's pants // Mother's sweater // Unisa boots // Gifted necklace

So I've been in love with tortoise shell for a couple years now, but as of late it's taken on a whole new level of obsession. Anytime I see something tortoise shell I immediately want it -- earrings, sunglasses, bracelets, etc. Needless to say when I got this necklace for Christmas I was extremely happy, because I've been on the search for a tortoise and gold chain-link one to match my watch!

black & blue

TJ Maxx blouse // Madewell jeans // thrifted necklace // Fossil jeans // AJ Morgan shades

I was wandering around TJ Maxx as usual and I came across this shirt. It was about $10, so I couldn't pass it up. It's turned out to be one of my best purchases- appropriate for work, day, and a night out. Oh also, it's so comfortable. The benefits of buying an XL.

cozy layers

 Forever 21 sweater // Marshall's dress and scarf // River Island boots

This outfit is super cozy and perfect for the colder weather when I don't feel like wearing jeans...all of the layers keep me warm and I love the mixed textures and patterns. Wearing everything in the same color palette helps to ensure a cohesive look...something to definitely keep in mind so you don't end up looking miss-matched!

friday

H&M pants // Loft shirt // Relic satchel // AJ Morgan shades // gifted watch and bangle // Me Too flats // Lands End scarf

Well, it's Friday! Although it was a short week because of New Years Eve, adjusting to work after the holidays made it seem even longer. In honor of the day, I had to share this AWFUL necklace Anna and I found at a boutique. And by awful, I mean I'm strangely drawn to it. It looks like it comes with its own personal Rebecca Black soundtrack... one purchase I managed to avoid.

B. Makowksy purse // Marshall's top // Forever 21 skirt // Karen Scott boots

While Katina was home for Christmas break, we got a chance to go to our favorite restaurant in Norfolk, Luna Maya, for our yearly Mother/Daughter dinner with both of our moms. Besides hosting our annual gathering, Luna Maya seriously has the best vegetarian tamales and guacamole...seriously they're amazing!
