The Friday before Christmas, Jared and I headed to the upper west side to the New York City Ballet’s performance of the Nutcracker!

I started ballet lessons when I was really little, and was a ballerina for oh, so many years. As such, I’ve been to many performances of the Nutcracker, but it’s been ages. Even after . . . → Read More: NYC Ballet Nutcracker

About a year ago I found this amazing purple leather skirt at a second-hand store, and immediately snatched it up. And then promptly forgot that I had it.

I ran across it a bit ago, as I was unpacking clothes from the great cross-country move, but just couldn’t seem to style it with anything. So it sat . . . → Read More: Leather Debut

A week or so ago, Jared and I realized that we were on the brink of one of the last warm days that New York was likely to see this year, so we headed to the park. It was absolutely gorgeous! I’m amazed that no matter how many times I wander through Central Park I always . . . → Read More: The Gothic Bridge

I came across this dress in late December (after all of the holiday parties were over), and was extremely excited to wear it, but all suitable occasions had past. I held onto it through January and February, admiring it as it hung in my closet, but never putting it on. Then one rainy March morning, I . . . → Read More: Anna Sui Dress

It has been an absolutely epic January! I really do apologize for my absence, my lovely readers. But between jumping into full-time freelance, a trip to New York, and the Sundance Film Festival, my time with the internet has been sparse. Let’s get right back into it with an outfit post!

Last weekend I ventured out to the suburbs for a holiday party with fabulous friends! Without going completely overboard, I loaded up on my favorite color of the season: RED!! I snagged the last few minutes of daylight to snap a couple photos. The twilight made the color interesting (although it did make focusing a little . . . → Read More: Fashion Statements #4

I definitely grew up a jeans and t-shirt kind of girl. At the beginning of the summer (April or May) I decided that I was absolutely sick of wearing the same old thing! But being so over that look didn’t change what I had or knew how to wear. I wanted to be fashionable but comfortable. . . . → Read More: From Drab to Fantastic – How to Switch Your Style

This last weekend it was time to register my car. As I was parking at the mechanic, I saw this fabulous mural behind the back fence of the parking lot. I had to have pictures! And although I wasn’t completely dressed for the occasion, I definitely think that the accent colors that I was wearing coupled with the . . . → Read More: Fashion Statements #3

A while back I was lusting after tutu’s. The other day I found this fantastic purple one at Forever 21, and it obviously had to come home with me!

When I wear it, I find that I bounce and spin a lot. It has great hang and spins beautifully (although, maybe too beautifully… I skipped including a . . . → Read More: Fashion Statements #2

This spring I came to a wardrobe altering conclusion: no longer would I tromp around in a standard outfit of jeans and a tshirt. From now on I would focus just a little more of my energy towards style. It’s been a few months and I’m sticking to it pretty well. But in order to give myself just a . . . → Read More: Fashion Statements #1
