Vintage Vest
Every year, without fail, winters in New York are extremely unpredictable. I enter the month of December thinking this might actually be the season that we get away with a definitively mild stretch of weather until, BOOM.

Pastel Hues
Shoes are my biggest weakness. Yesterday, when getting dressed in my 10 minutes or less rule, I scurried to find a soft pastel hued shoe in my closet. I weeded through the cobwebs, but no luck. I once bought a pair of pink oxfords, wore them only once on Easter... Read More
Those Giant Pearls
Since fashion month has recently departed, what is left is the layers and layers of designs/ trends that are left to dissect. What is sent down the runway each season though may not always be the most practical for IRL situations. Here’s the thing. Where matters of Céline is concerned, I... Read More
The Heart’s Desire

Craving Cat-eyes
Ready to rock out in a new pair of sunnies? Sunnies is most definitely a fake word that I found out whilst reading my Instagram and Twitter feeds, and fashionable blogs like The Glamourai and I am not sure I even like it. It’s sunny, so what? Even so, it... Read More
Foot Stompin’
Among the many manifestos that I have made this past season; most notably wide-leg pants, mixing prints, oversized coats, and over-the-top fur, I have not forgotten about what has been occurring below ankle level. Knee-high boots are more prevalent than booties, the platform shoe is not dead, and we see... Read More
