Beauty Must-Haves


Every girl should have a few staple beauty items. Here are a few of mine:

1. Chanel lipstick. Every girl should have one of these in red. 
2. Tom Ford nail polish. Tom Ford beauty has really stepped up it's game. Pretty much everything from them is on my lust list currently.
3. Lancome mascara. They do a great job with their mascaras. I usually go between Benefit and Lancome. It just so happens this is my go-to right now.
4. Tom Ford perfume. I've been using this scent since I was in high school. My mom spoiled me one year on Christmas and I haven't looked back since. I have a few others I love, but I always come back to Black Orchid.
5. La Mer cream. It's expensive, but worth it. It leaves your skin silk smooth.

Central Park






{#ootd: Del Toro shoes. JCrew blazer & belt. Chanel purse. Rag & Bone hat. Dylan & George boyfriend jeans. Baublebar bracelet. Chinti and Parker sweater.}

Central Park is beautiful and I'm disappointed that I rarely make my way up there. I live and work downtown, so there isn't much of a reason for me to go up there. The winter cold makes me useless, but luckily we had ONE whole day of sunshine and temperatures in the 50's last weekend. As you can tell, the winter could not have made me any paler. Spring cannot come any quicker!

Last but not least... my recent photographer happens to be my boyfriend, Logan (below). He may get a little upset with me for posting this, but doesn't he look incredible? Babe alert.

February lust list





Black is the new black. Luckily for me, black will never go out of style. Since I moved to the east coast it has become even more of a staple in my personal wardrobe. Pops of color though are essential in brightening up a black outfit, hence the beautiful pink purse. Featured above and listed below are a few accessories I am currently lusting over while enduring New York's cold weather.

  1. Karen Walker Number One sunglasses.
  2. Celine bag.
  3. Autumn Cashmere fingerless gloves with skulls.
  4. Rag & Bone hat.
  5. Stuart Weitzman 50/50 boots.
Stay warm, the winter's end is near.
Well sort of...

I confess – I am obsessed with cats. I think it may be because I have a lot of similarities with them. They're independent, great snugglers, have an attitude, make their playmates work to gain their respect, and are perfectly sized for small spaces like an apartment in the city. I bought this hat that I am wearing because while we do have a lot in common, we do look quite the opposite.

accessorize


When it's freezing outside, I've found it difficult to dress myself. Get your mind out of the gutter will you? I mean in the sense that I put layer after layer on my body to keep myself warm in arctic temperatures – thank you polar vortex – to the point where I look like I got fashion advice from Joey on Friends. Thankfully, this is where accessories come in to play and easily make you and me look at least a tad more fashionable in frigid weather. Here are a few of my favorite items this winter that are perfect for work or the weekend. 


1. Knitted Infinity Scarf  by Christopher Fischer
2. Women's White Leather Slipper with Black Leather Cap Toe by Del Toro
3. Transport Tote by Madewell
4.  Felix Knit Cap with Cat Ears in Black by Eugenia Kim



Stay warm meow!

Black & White

I'm not going to lie, these photos were taken right after I woke up from a nap on the train. Although my eyes were tired and hair was tousled, I couldn't resist snapping a few photos in Grand Central Station. It was late at night and the lighting wasn't amazing... so I'll be back Grand Central, I'll be back.

Metro-North




{Genie by Eugenia Kim beanie. Nightcap scarf. Oxford camel coat. Alexander Wang bag, shirt & skirt. Burberry rain boots.Tom Ford lipstick.}

Although I love New York City, it's nice every once in a while to escape from the hustle and bustle. So when I'm given the opportunity to get out of the city, I usually take it. Even if its babysitting my boyfriend's little brother.
