In an unusual twist of fate, I'm actually wearing denim!! No, not jeans, but a denim shirt counts, right? I needed to pull out this skirt (made by moi!) before bare-legs were gone for the year, and it looks so cute and casual with the top. Fall booties, and (my obsession) Clinique's Color Pop Lipstick in Cola Pop add to the autumn-vibes!

I've always been a tucked-in-top kind of girl, but there is something so cozy about throwing a chunky knit over an outfit. For a chilly fall day, I grabbed a simple a-line skirt and cozy mustard knit sweater and paired it with fun floral tights! I've been living in these ankle boots lately, they're perfect for the transition into colder weather!

New York weather has been maddening the past week; 45 degrees one day and 70 the next! Today it was a lovely 60 and the perfect temperature for a light sweater and riding boots! I love the emerald color of this green LOFT sweater! It adds the perfect pop of color to a fall/winter outfit!

Since we have a few last days of light crisp weather before the cold, I wanted to break out my favorite pinstripe button down! Paired with these LOFT earrings (similar), Addie Loafers (similar), and orangy-red lips, it feels very Jenna Lyons inspired!
As most of you know, I've been in college in NYC for about two months now, and with the college life, comes the college budget! That said, I've had to trade my beloved Dr. Jart BB Cream for a more budget-friendly option. And so the search for a new drugstore foundation began! Here are the 4 that I've been testing out over the past few months:
After a little over a month of being here, I'm finally all settled in, and had the time to film a dorm tour! I live in Alumni Hall at the Fashion Institute of Technology, in a quad-style apartment!

How to make it through a cold and rainy New York day: rain boots, pixie pants, and a cozy sweater. Oh, and don't forget Starbucks! Top off the outfit with a chic necklace, headband, and your favorite fall lip color (Berry and Burgundy have been in constant rotation) and you've got yourself a winne

You would think there's only one or two shades, right? wrong. Like any hair color, there are many shades and variations. For platinum/white hair you can choose to be more yellow, grey, purple, or silver. I went with just a slight touch of golden blonde. Only enough that I wouldn't be completely white.
If you're not sure, I would stick with whatever your natural tone is (warm vs cool).
My biggest tip would be DO NOT wash your hair for at least 3 days before the appointment! The natural oils will protect your scalp and make it a lot less painful (bleach burning your head, no thank you!)
Yes, box-dye costs $10 and a professional costs $100+, but PLEASE think of the damage that boxed dye will do to your hair!! (not to mention the color-gone-horribly-wrong situation that very well could happen!) A professional will know how to best color and care for your locks and will use only top of the line products that will protect your hair from unnecessary damage!
Platinum blonde takes a lot of new products (as well as commitment) Check out my list of the Best Products for Bottle Blondes!
There will eventually come a time where you have a full inch of brown roots, and your appointment isn't for another week. So what do you do? Spray and Tease! I use Batiste Light and Blonde to cover a little color, and then lightly tease at the roots. (<-- Remember this!! It will come in handy!!)
I've only recently started wearing pencil skirts, and I regret missing out on them for so long! They're comfortable and chic! (My favorite pair!) I paired this one from LUSH with a simple grey long sleeve, my DVF Micro Milo, and my favorite statement necklace from J.Crew. Flats kept it comfy and casual for brunch with my roomies Julia (Hey Jule) and Kayla (The Style Genre)!
