1: high neck sweater // 2: knee high socks // 3: beanie // 4: gloves // 5: shearling boots // 6: scarf
Here are a few items I’ve got my eye on to stay warm this winter. Neutrals, leather, wool, and cozy essentials!
black & snakeskin
jacket: Vince // top: Mango // pants: Armani Exchange // shoes: Zara (similar here) // shades: Marc by Marc Jacobs
A black blazer is a wardrobe staple. It pulls a look together and can easily be dressed up or down. All-black with a pop of snakeskin is effortless and chic, and a bold lip adds just the right amount of color. What are some of your wardrobe must-haves?
Happy Halloween!
Have a happy and safe Halloween!
gorgeous face
These illuminating powders from Chanel are just gorgeous! Almost too pretty to use. Each powder adds instant luminosity to the eyes, cheeks and décolleté. A radiant addition to any makeup routine, indeed.

October picks
1. Plymouth Wrap – Steven Alan // 2. Orage Nail Colour – Chanel // 3. Noisetier Candle – Diptyque // 4. Imprint Stacking Rings – Madewell // 5. Textured Scarf – Madewell et Sézane
Here are a few of my top picks for October. Lately, I’ve been drawn to neutral knitwear and oversized pieces. I’m really loving the idea of wraps and large scarves for this fall/winter. Layers and elevated basics for the win!
sweater weather
sweater: Madewell (similar here) // overalls: Zara // sneakers: Vince // shades: Prada
The weather in Chicago has been mild and tolerable these past few weeks. It’s supposed to be 70 today! Yay! But we all know it’s going to be legit sweater weather soon. Until then, you can find me outside running around while it’s warm.
weekend
weekend inspiration: My husband and I enjoy night photography and taking long exposures. This picture was taken when we were in Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Tilda Swinton for NARS
black and steel
shirt: Zara (similar here) // skirt: Hugo Boss // bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim // d’Orsay pumps: Vince
A pencil skirt and black pumps are a wardrobe must-have. Both are ideal for work, interviews, luncheons, etc. I just picked up these d’Orsay pumps from Vince for a special luncheon I attended last week, and I love them! They’re comfortable, classic and the heel length is perfect. Seriously, I think I could walk all over the city in these.
