styling classics: jeans & a white tee

When I'm on the go and don't have much of an outfit planned, I always turn back to a classic go-to: jeans and a white tee. Styled with accessories like statement earrings and sling backs, it is the perfect off-duty look to run around town while still being comfortable and chic.

fall fashion ideas

It seems like I'm not the only one ready for fall--when I asked you guys what you would like to see in my next post, a ton of you said fall outfit inspiration! I also got a question about what to wear to weddings, so I figured I would do a little bit of a mix. Read more to see...

le petit update

Some photos from this weekend and a little update! 

let's talk...nail polish

Though I obviously love skincare and beauty, I'm a little lost when it comes to nails. I'm still trying to nip my nail-biting habit in the bud and I usually have no idea what my nail color is when I happen to have them painted. I sort of just throw one on and don't pay much attention, hoping that the neutral-shade is making my hands look tanner. I stumbled across J. Hannah, the Instagram account you definitely admire from time to time to drool over their stunning, simple jewelry and Autumn-toned polishes.  Take a peak into what I thought about one of their nail polishes.

a soho look

 If you had said to me 2 years ago that I would be getting on the subway and walking around New York City in a shirt with a naked woman's silhouette on them, I would have thought you were lying out of sheer shyness and lack of confidence. Yet here I am, doing that exact thing, and absolutely loving it. Take a look into one of my favorite looks I wore walking around Soho on a sunny Tuesday afternoon.

wild nights at home

One of my favorite activities on a weekday night is to have some wine, put on a face mask, and flip through collections of magazines, trying not to think about the work day happening tomorrow. Take a peak into what I call 'a wild night at home'...

photography & editing tips

When I asked you guys on Twitter what you'd like to see from me, tons of you said you'd love to see a photography/editing tips type of post! So that's what I'm doin'!

my favorite spots in nyc

It's no lie that I'm a foodie and love New York City restaurant-searching. It's honestly like a soul search. After living here for 2 years, I think I've put together a great list of restaurants that I frequent, so much so that the people actually know me at most of these and it is mostly embarrassing. And even though a lot of these spots are dear to my heart and, like you're favorite band, I didn't want to give them up...but, here's the list...

things to do on a sunday

Sunday (n); the day when you really just don't know what to do with yourself.

july inspiration

I have been lacking inspiration lately, so I forced myself to browse the interwebs and find things that were catering to my interests now. Take a peak!

a day in brooklyn

On a perfect Saturday, I ventured to Brooklyn with lovely photographer Hope Helmuth. Read more to see the photos.

skincare update

Per usual, I love doing a little skincare update every month or so because, as you guys know, I am always changing up and switching out products and seeing where my skin is headed. I feel like this is the month I've taken skincare even more seriously, because during my time of the month I was breaking out like no other...

pre-fall feels

You know that feeling--summer rolls around and even though you're so excited to break out your denim shorts and linens, there's a feeling of nostalgia--a nostalgia for Autumn tones and sweaters. Is it just me?

health: the super elixir

I know I don't talk too much about health on here, and the main reason why is because I don't really know what I'm doing when it comes to health and fitness. I kind of just wing it, even though it is something that is important to me as I grow older. I want to feel good not only about the outside, but on the inside. Luckily, I have found a super easy, quick solution to getting enough vitamins and nutrients and it's called The Super Elixir. I promise it's not as intense as it sounds!

the marble table of my dreams

As promised, I wanted to do an interiors post on this beautiful marble coffee table from Harpers Project, the best mid-century modern furniture site I have ever found. Seriously, I am in love.

favorite candle roundup

Obviously I really love my candles, no matter what time of the year. Here are some of my ultimate favorite brands and scents, ranging from masculine and woody to light and rosy.

les femmes: say salut to this gorgeous slow fashion-focused brand

Slow fashion is something that, thank god, is getting more and more popular the more I browse around the interwebs...which got me thinking...I need to stop my fast-fashion trips where I buy an item, wear it once, and then forget about it. Les Femmes has come to the rescue.

cle cosmetics: a fresh take on natural beauty

I am definitely one for looking natural rather than overdone with my makeup--not even because it's trendy right now, but because it makes my skin feel so much better and lighter. I even feel more confident, strangely. When I was introduced to Cle Cosmetics via Instagram, I immediately fell in love with their simple esthetic and their products which are clean and full of natural ingredients. Can it get any better?

'in a crowded place': the art preview

About a month ago, I wrote about the 'feline making waves in the art world', aka Copenhagen-based artist, Christiane Spansberg. And, just a couple weeks later, I got to attend her exclusive preview in Soho. The excitement was very real.

can we bring back vests?

While on a casual trip to Banana Republic with my mom, as one does, I saw this vest in the sale and my mind instantly flooded with weird ideas. How cool would this vest look in the fall, over a sweater? Or, even better, just worn by itself in the summer? I know it's definitely strange, but I wanted to test the look out...
