The Reason I Hold On is Because I Need This Hole Gone

I want you to stay
oh, stay

This song; every time it comes on the radio I need to blast it and sing along, heartfelt and out of key. There’s no one out of my life that I wish had stayed, yet I’m completely smitten with today’s song of the day. Not to mention this perfect, bold and bright hued skirt for Spring form the Prabal Gurung for Target Collaboration. Seriously, one of my favorite Target collabs ever; my only regret is not getting the black paneled dress and any of the shoes. I figured it’d go perfectly, and in breezy seasonably, with this vintage crop top (I got it from Express a million years ago, that counts as vintage, right!?) and added a little future with the holographic clutch. And who would I be without a little leather? The only thing I’m missing is some glam jewels. As I grow older I find my styles change and mature; long gone are the days are bright costume jewelry, welcome to the days of timeless and priceless pieces with the REAL glam flare of glitz and glamour.

The Hawaiian Shirt

I wore this fun summer look to a fun afternoon out in Providence with my friend Greg (who also shot the photos for this post!) where we went to a few local shops and boutiques before stopping in for deliciously fresh smoothies at Amy’s on Wickenden Street.
Personally, I’m thrilled with the tropical print trend right now, and even more excited that my father seems to have finally, ever so slightly outgrown some of his shirts. Yes, my father and I were the same size. And now, just in time for summer I can don his beloved tropical print tops and give them back before they make their way back out of the fashion spectrum.

Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies

March first, and here in the NorthEast we’re ringing in the month with a lovely little snowstorm. The roads are horrible, yet during the daylight I decided to brave the weather and go hang with some old friends with some cocktails at Applebee’s and some thrifting.

 

Found this lovely sequined “Rainbow Fish” cardigan that my friend graciously bought for me <33

Weekend in The Mountains

Now that all my NYFW posts are done, it’s time I post those pictures from my three days away. My silly cousin decided to get married down in Pennsylvania smack dab in the middle of fashion week, but I must say that although I know I missed some amazing shows, taking the time to get away was quite relieving. Here’s a few random pictures from my adventures and the wedding!

The road trip down:

Yuengling Brewery Tour:

Now, I’m not a fan of beer, but my parents are so they thought it would be fun to take a tour of America’s Oldest Brewery. Not going to lie, it was pretty cool. I even tasted some of the beer at the end! Octoberfest, yum (it’s not even in bars or stores yet!)

The Wedding!

YES, my hair matched my dress (from Express). I tried to stay classy, drinking my Twisted Teas, and attempting to last all night in my Bakers heels. My family eventually broke out the hula hoops and before long it was dark and I was driving a Jeep through the mountains lost for 2 hours with drunk uncles in the back. Not going to lie, it was a great time!

Anyway, the next morning it was back on the road to NYC and all those busy shows.

Work and Play

Saturday was a day of both work and play. As some of you may know, I’m a coordinator for the New York Fashion Blogger Meet Up Group. The other coordinators and I, as well as top IFB bloggers and other members of our group attended the Blogger Closet Raid held at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. I had just spent my Friday shopping, but once I found Nitrolicious, all plans to “not spend” went down the drain. Having and amazing shoe collection, ALL in my size, ranging from Jessica Simpson to Jeffrey Campbells to Louboutin’s it was like her set up was curated specifically for me. Though I wish I could have indulged in the crystal encrusted Louboutin’s and Xanadu fur JC’s, I knew I needed to think realistically…and then I found the Jessica Simpson moto boots. I’ve been scouring the internet and shops for the perfect studded moto boots to add to my collection, and when I stumbled upon these for their low price there was no WAY I could say no. The following few images were taken by Monroe of Fashion Steele NYC.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the raid-fest and saying hello to good friends, it was time to get down to work. Monroe, Yanil and I decided to dine and chat at the Tribeca Grand’s lounge, which was full of attractive attentive staff and delicious drinks, as well as coffee and food according to my counterparts.

I hope they don’t mind that I made myself at home on their chairs!

Bracelets from…around

Jessica Simpson moto boots

As you can see I’m completely smitten with my new purchase. I’m also ecstatic that my ombre manicure if still going strong, since nail colors usually don’t last long on me due to chipping and such.

Leopard Distrust

My bf is visiting for the weekend and we’ve been blessed with mid 50’s weather, thank god! I got my hair done yesterday, 5 hours worth of chemicals and bleach, but I’m loving it! Also did a photoshoot today, pictures will come soon!

So, due to the nice weather and immense sunshine, Cody and I decided to go exploring in my fairly new neighborhood.

We found an awesome new *cheap* liquor store on Lorimer…. $20 for a handle of Bacardi Dragon Berry and we were in! We’ll be having an enjoyable night, that’s for sure!

Target tights

Express shorts

Kiss the Concrete shirt

H&M jacket

And I’ll finish with a picture of my new hair. It’s really dead… we’re going to do a deep conditioning treatment and then more bleach this week, and then I’m adding a surprise!

Outlet Shopping

This weekend, while waiting for my paycheck, I went shopping at the outlet mall I’m currently working at. Sadly, all I brought was my phone so the pictures are not the best quality…but still, here’s some pics of my mini day trip!

Liz Claiborne shirt.

Express shorts.

Justice fringed Sandals.

Vintage bag.

Shirt from PacSun. I want it SO bad.

Dresses and top from BeBe.

1. $49.95

2. $39.95

3. $24.99

BeBe is not one of my normal stores to go fashion hunting but I had time to kill and it was there. To my surprise there was actually some fashionable and adorable things. My boyfriend is a big fan of the floral dress as am I…I’m definitely considering purchasing it.

Anyway, after my perusing, I went home to get dolled up for a party! Before: no make up!

After: some minor wardrobe tweaking and make up!

Shirt, still from Liz Claiborne.

Dress from American Apparel.

found that belt.

Boots from some cowboy store in Virginia.
