Busy days call for comfort; a simple crew neck sweater and my favorite black skinny pant. The vest adds an element of interest, but keeps the look clean and simple. A Chelsea boot with subtle details and soft pink lip bring it all together.

With the weather being so cold and snowy, my enthusiasm for winter clothing is beginning to dwindle. A mix of denim, texture, and pop of cobalt blue are a nice change from my go-to sweater and dark denim ensemble. Have a great Wednesday!

I generally don’t wear long dresses, though I found this basic and comfortable one at H&M last week. I decided to break it up and add some extra warmth by layering a heavy wool sweater over it. A bright red lip, shiny patent leather penny loafer, and just the right amount of soft gold accessories jazz it up a bit. Have great Monday!

I love, love, love the Chloé Spring 2014 Collection. The feminine colors, deep necklines, and boyish cuts are a perfectly balanced display of French finesse. Look 1 and look 5 are my favorites and could see myself wearing over and over. I’m enjoying the loose fitting pants and platform sandals I’ve been seeing on the Spring runways, too.

Sometimes there’s nothing more appealing than a (mostly) all black ensemble. An oversized sweater paired with combination leather legging is an instant classic. Add a bright red lip and slouchy boot and you’re all set! Have a great Wednesday!

Let’s focus on Spring bags, specifically in a soft cloud gray color. I’ve selected a few investment pieces that can be carried year after year. That Pashli Backpack is hands down my favorite!

A combination of elevated winter basics and different textures are a great way to stay warm and not feel over layered. My favorite type of sweater has always been a soft cable-knit; specifically a heavy woven cotton or acrylic blend. I decided on a dark skinny jean with side zippers at the ankle, a pointy ankle boot, and bold lip to keep my look chic. Have a great Monday and stay warm!
Here are a few looks from the Marc by Marc Jacobs SS ’14 Collection. I’m generally not drawn to high luster fabrics, though these add just the right amount of attention and playfulness to each look. Check out all those loose fitting pants. I love them! Especially that first pair in black and white. And those easy going sneakers are a must-have for the warmer days ahead.
