Currently loving this weather (except today...)! I have been spending so much time outside lately soaking up the Vitamin D. It's kind of liberating kicking off the jeans and leggings. Warm weather opens up so many doors… like maxi dresses! The perfect Spring piece: not too warm for Winter, but not enough leg to be Summer. Ease out of the cold months with ankle boots, and then transition into warmer months with sandals or wedges. Add a bright, printed belt for some electric Summer vibes. Maxi dresses are fun to play around with… so go play! And enjoy the sunshine :)

PS this NARS matte lip pencil is my favorite! The color I am wearing is Cruella. Check it out.

Here is my ideal Valentine's Day outfit. So first of all I should go look for a job in order to purchase this perfect ensemble, and then I should go look for a boyfriend. Just kidding… pizza is better.

Spent the last Saturday of break in one of my favorite places in Atlanta. Westside Provisons is the perfect place for a casual, laid back day or afternoon. This spot has some awesome stores (Free People, J Crew, Anthropologie, Lulu Lemon) and restaurants! And the best part about it? Dogs welcome!!! We brought our two dogs into all the stores that we dropped by :) And of course we had to stop by one of Atlanta's best-kept secrets, Sublime Doughnuts. Holy cow can I eat these every day? Probably shouldn't. This last day of break called for a good outfit that matched the mood. These BCBGeneration printed jeans are so fun and open up so many outfit options. I can't wait to play around with them. And a light sweater is perfect for the roller coaster Georgia weather that we experience on a day-to-day basis. A solid pair of combats and you're there. I can't wait to come back to this little hang out when the weather gets warmer. Until then, I'll be bundled up in layers and layers with hot cocoa readily available.

PS: Today is "Gotcha Day" for cute little Milly featured in the photos above! It's been a year since my sister rescued this precious babe. Can't love her enough. Happy Gotcha Day Milly!! XO

My my my, what a city. This December, my mom, sister (<--check this babe out) and I journeyed to the oh-so-adored state of New York just before Christmas. For me, it was my first time in the magical city. And I must say that I couldn't have met this place at a better time. The streets were packed with the most interesting people I could ever imagine, buildings were adorned with incredibly beautiful lights and Christmas decorations, and the rooftops were just ever-so-slighty dusted with a thin sheet of snow. I mean seriously, there is inspiration every direction you look here. And if not inspiration, there is definitely something interesting to observe, guaranteed. We had the absolute best view from our 40th floor, and I loved pushing back the curtains in the morning revealing the amazing scene highlighted by the bright (and somewhat blinding) sun. Blessed by awesome weather, we covered as much turf as possible: Times Square, Rockefeller Plaza, Soho, The Met, Central Park, Battery Park, and even a unintentional surprise pit stop in Brooklyn! And the cherry on top? The last night, I met two of my favorite bloggers at an event showcasing their brand new Modern Vice Croc Jett (which is amaze). Dylana and Natalie, you girls rock! Thanks for such a fun night :) 

Thank you, New York (and mom) for such a wonderful experience. I hope to see you soon... and this time in shorts, sandals, and tanned skin.

Be sure to check out Dylana and Natalie Suarez and their undeniably inspirational selves!
