Welcome to my site. Iām a New York-based fashion industry professional and aspiring eco-friendly human.

If I had to wear one outfit everyday, for the rest of my life, it would be this dress! It is the most comfortable and flattering dress I've ever owned. (SO many compliments!) Plus, it looks a bit more chic than your average maxi dress. I paired it with my favorite gold sandals from LOFT, earrings from Target, and DVF Micro Milo bag!
I was thrilled when I saw this Wild Orchid Top in LOFT a few days ago, and equally as excited when I spotted the Tweed Circle Skirt to go with it! I love this outfit so much, and I can wait to pair it with a leather jacket, tights, and boots when the weather cools down!
I was in need of a summer bronzer, and as I browsed Sephora.com, I stumbled upon the BareMinerals Loose Powder Bronzer in Faux Tan. I'm always a bit weary of buying bronzers online because I have very fair skin, but since it's a loose powder, and I use a less dense brush (RealTechniques Duo Fiber Face Brush) to apply, it worked out beautifully! I've always preferred loose powder bronzers to pressed powder, because I find it easier to control how much product I put on the brush (very important for us "porcelain" girls). For more medium-olive skin tones, using a more dense brush, as well as building it up a bit, would work very well!
Overall, it is a gorgeous product and definitely a new favorite! If you want to try it for yourself, you can find it here!
I have always been a bit of a bookworm, and I love tons of different types of books. Today I thought I would share a few titles that I have been particularly loving lately!
If you're a The Bachelor/Bachlorette fan, you will freak over this future-meets-fairytale novel! Dangerous love-triangles, conflicting feelings, and dystopian influences made this novel a huge hit in my view. I just finished Book 3: The One, and I can't wait to start Book 4! Kiera Cass has quickly become one of my favorite authors! (Also, can we take a moment to mention the covers? They're STUNNING. I have them all on my Kindle, but I almost wish I had them all hardcopy just for that!)
I absolutely adored these two reads by Lauren Conrad! Her effortless yet chic style has definitely become one of my inspirations. I swear I've read them both cover-to-cover 3 times!

The last day of my LOFT Haul is here! I decided to end with my favorite outfit of them all, which includes my new La Mer Scarf (It has lobsters on it!!) and Black Scalloped Riviera Shorts (similar). I paired that with a plain white tee, LOFT polka-dot flats, and my monogrammed Texas necklace from James Avery.

Day 2 of my LOFT Haul! I'm so in love with this bright orange Shirttail Dress! The color is perfect for summer and it's so light and flowy! I paired it with one of my favorite J.Crew necklaces (similar here) and new LOFT gold sandals. To top it all off, I have mt new DVF Micro Milo bag, which I did a What's in my Bag/ Bag Review post about! (and in case you were wondering, my toenail polish is Essie's After School Boy Blazer)
One of the many things I bought was this gorgeous black short-sleeved trapeze dress! The material is so soft and comfortable, and it pairs with practically anything for any occasion! I paired it with a LOFT hammered pendent necklace and gold banded sandals
I was lucky enough to have this gorgeous little gem given to me by my grandmother as a graduation gift, and it has quickly become my most-used bag! It's large enough to hold the essential plus a few extras and the chic faux snakeskin adds something interesting to any outfit! It actually holds more than you think it would. I was surprised to find how much I could fit! It has small pocket inside the main compartment that's perfect for holding your phone, a zippered compartment on the back which is nice for keeping cash, cards, ID, etc. and I'm not quite sure what I'll use the front pocket for, possibly a metrocard, but for now it's just a pretty addition.
