TASSEL

Zara Baby Doll Dress (also in red here), J.Crew Falsetto Pumps, Forever 21 necklaces, Vintage Clutch + Watch, Essie Nail Polish in "Bikini So Teeny" 

I wore this outfit to my mom's birthday brunch. I love the little tassels on these J.Crew shoes. I purchased these soon after I purchased the strappy mirrored metallic pumps from J.Crew. I found that their shoes are very comfortable. I would order a half size up. Can you believe these necklaces are from forever 21? I layered three of their necklaces. I love going there for trendy jewelry. I hate spending a lot of money on anything trendy. These three necklaces were $16 total!

BABY BLUE + HENRIETTA

Zara cropped top,  Zara faux leather tube skirt, Nine West x Instyle Gamin Heels, Asos spiked hoop earrings (similar here), Madewell bracelet, vintage watch + clutch, Revlon nail polish in "Siren" 

This weekend I picked up my new puppy! I have been wanting a puppy for a few years now and after a couple opportunities to adopt fell through, I found my new Schnoodle, Henrietta. She has done so well her first day and she will be starting obedience training soon! The hardest thing so far is finding cool, unique things for her (and potty training, of course!). I will be sharing some of her favorite things soon. 

This weekend I took Henrietta out and enjoyed some of the warmer weather. With Spring comes pastels. Although I have never really been a fan of light blue, I am finding myself drawn to it more this season. I purchased this cropped blouse and faux leather pencil skirt from Zara a few weeks ago and plan to mix them into my work wardrobe. Also, I have been searching for the perfect snakeskin pumps that I could also wear to work. I finally found this pair from the Nine West x Instyle collaboration. If you are searching for something similar, you should check these out. Nine West shoes are always comfortable and last forever. 

PINSTRIPE + LEATHER

 Zara skirt, forever 21 tank,  J.Crew pinstripe super 120s blazer, Shoemint heels (old; similar here), Madewell + J.Crew bracelets, ASOS spiked hoop earrings, vintage watch

We had a little taste of Spring on Sunday. It worked out perfectly since I was getting over being sick on Saturday. I recently purchased this skirt from Zara because I thought I could wear it with tights now and without later. Looks like I didn't have to wait too long. Unfortunately it looks like we have a couple couple snow storms headed our way. I hate to complain but I can't take another day of snow. 

STRIPED SHIRTDRESS

 Madewell striped shirtdress, Zara shoes (similar here), Vintage watch, Madewell bracelet, Lipstick Revlon in "Really Red"

Last weekend the weather was perfect. I pulled out this striped shirtdress from Madewell. It's the perfect transition piece. I love the emerald and navy stripes. The weather is much colder now but I hear it may warm up again this weekend. 

WAISTCOAT

Zara waistcoat, Old Navy blouse, Gap high-rise skinny jeans, DV by Dolce Vita sandals (old, similar here), & Nosilla Vintage wayfarers (similar here)

I've never been a big fan of coats. I only own about four. Lately I have started wanted to add more coats to my wardrobe. When I saw this Zara waistcoat, I thought it was so different from what else I have in my closet. It's heavy like a coat with it's wool base and faux fur collar, but it's the perfect layering piece. 

What pieces are you adding to your wardrobe? 

COLORFULLY CHIC: ICE BLUE

On this installment of Colorfully Chic, I decided to post about a color that I'm starting to see pop up everywhere. If I could my least favorite color, I would pick light blue. I've never really liked the color and used to find it very boring. Now with pastels ruling this upcoming Spring, I'm started to see a lot of pieces in the gorgeous color. Now I love how opulent and fresh the color looks. I've found some pretty, powder blue things below: 

Equipment blouse, J.Crew Nightshirt, J.Crew blouse, Zara midi length lace skirt, 

Hanky Panky lace thong, Deborah Lippmann nail polish, Alexander Wang bag, Kitchen Aid artisan mixer, J Brand jeans, Bungalow 5 lamps, J.Crew iPhone case

CROPPED

Asos crop sweater (similar here), Rebecca Taylor coat (old), Arden B. skirt (old. Similar here), Zara heels & bag, vintage watch and bracelet

This weekend I helped my dad organize his closet and introduced him to Spotify. I've been listening to James Brown and Stevie Wonder all weekend. I wore this out to brunch on Sunday to Print Works Bistro. They have the most amazing profiteroles. 

CINEMA DRESS

Madewell silk cinema dress, Hue tights, Rebecca Taylor coat (old), Zara pumps (old), Madewell bag, Nosilla Vintage sunglasses, Vintage scarf

I love a great silk shirtdress. I can wear it all year-round to work or on the weekends. This Madewell silk cinema dress has a great mini houndstooth print. They also have a great navy option. 

GREEN.

Rebecca Taylor coat (old; similar here), Gap jeans (DIY distressed; similar here), KenzieGirl sweater, Zara handbag, ASOS foil beanie (similar), Zara heels

I'm trying to add more green to my wardrobe. My favorite shade has to be emerald. I wrote about it here. It really looks great on all skin tones. 

What colors are you trying to wear more? 

GREEN LEOPARD WITH BORN MAJESTIC

 Outfit 1 // Born Majestic top ℅, Madewell blouse, J.Crew blazer, Gap cropped trousers, Gap trench, Zara pumps, vintage watch, Nosilla Vintage aviators

Outfit 2 // Born Majestic skirt ℅, ASOS top, J.Crew blazer, DV Dolce Vita sandals, vintage watch

The older I get the more I find myself wanting more unique pieces. About a year ago, Born Majestic was born. Majesty Timberlake, Born Majestic's founder and Creative Director, is a former college classmate of mine. Her lifelong passion for fashion and desire to offer accessible fashion led her to create the online boutique. 

Born Majestic offers fashion-forward styles for every budget. Majesty handpicks every piece she offers in the store from designers such as Ark & Co. to Rubber Ducky. What I love most is the limited quantity offered. Once an item sells out, it's gone. I can purchase an item I love and not worry about seeing it on everyone when I walk out the door. I can't wait to get my hands on some other pieces. What says New Year's Eve more than this dress? Little black dresses are great but I prefer a chic black jumpsuit like this one.
