Fall Outfit Inspiration

outfit



 Fall is finally here in it's honor I did this outfit inspiration. This outfit is perfect for the fall. One of the first things that is a fall statement is not really a clothing item but Starbucks goes with every outfit and you know is fall when Starbucks brings back their pumpkin lattes, which I try not to drink multiple times a day because I am a bit addicted.

Every girl should own a pair of Corduroy pants. They are great for the fall plus they are pretty cozy. I love how you can pair it up with any kind of shoes. I ordered a pair from Gap and I can't wait until they arrive. I love sweaters. But I love them even more when they have a classic look. I am drooling over this J.Crew Sweater. What I love about it is the two leather pockets in the front. It is stylish, fashionable and warm. 

Another must for the fall are a pair of Booties. They are great to pair them with dresses, leggings, denims and cords. Plus I love the way they look on your feet and again super comfortable.  

And the last piece is a statement bag. I recently purchased this Phillip Lim for Target Pashli tote, which I am obsessed with, I can't put it down everywhere I go I carry it with me. It will be my fall bag. But If you cannot find it at your nearest target this Tote from Madewell it the perfect leather bag for the fall.

The Good thing about this outfit is that is versatile and you can switch it up with different clothing items. Enjoy this fall!

Pointy Toe Shoes Under 100 !

Untitled #521



Hello ladies ! sorry I have been lost for a couple of days I have been dealing with chronic migraine and it gets the best of me. Today I woke up feeling less dizzy so i decided to talk about one of my favorite kind of shoes for this fall.

 I have a love and hate relationship with pointy toe shoes, well my toes do. I have wide feet and most of the time that I am looking to buy pointy shoes I have problems,  either I have to go a size up or they don't fit well at all. But I do love me some pointy toe shoes.

I remember  the last time wore pointy shoes was for my 8th grade prom. Which that was eight years ago !!! Yes I guess I avoided buying it.  I really love the trend and I am happy that is back for the fall. or at least that I am back at wearing it.

 Ive gather a couple of pointy shoes under 100. They are stylish and not breaking the bank account. They are from Gap, Zara and Urban Outfitters. You can find them down below.

Baseball Cap Outfit Inspiration

Untitled #521





 Lately I have been seeing many people with baseball caps not only the ordinary team caps but fashionable ones. J.crew has come out with a cap collection for the fall. Which at the beginning I was not that sure about it. First because I never really wear caps and second because I always use floppy fedora hats in the fall. But I have fallen for them. And I can't wait to wear mine. It is one of the coolest trend of the season.

I decided to do an Outfit Inspiration to demonstrate how you can pair the cap on an everyday basis. I think you are giving an extra fun touch to your outfit. It is perfect. I ordered my cap and i can't wait to pair it up with a couple outfit that i have in mind. So if you are like me and think that you might not like the cap trend try it out you never know. 

Have Fun !

MY Everyday Makeup Storage and Bath & Body Works Haul





Hello Ladies this week I decided to share with you one part of my makeup collection. This is how I organize my everyday makeup. It is much easier for me also if i buy something new i usually leave it outside that way i won't forget. As you can see i have some of my eye and lip pencils on a bath and body works candle jar. I think it is great way to organize your makeup and also you can re use your candle jars so that is a double win. 

On the right I I have an Anthropologie monogrammed mug filled up with the brushes that I have used during the week. I usually take those dirty brushes and wash them on the weekend. The lipstick holder which I got 3 years ago at the container store I keep my favorite lipsticks that I am going to use or have used during the past week.

I also did a bit of damage during labor day sales.  I ordered some of my favorite fall candles they were 2 for 22 so i had to whoop up a couple for the house. I already started burning Pumpkin cupcake and my house smells delicious and like Fall. As you can see I also ordered one of my favorite body wash which it smells like heaven and it's great for those long stressful nights and my favorite Bath and Body Works lotion which is soft, calming and rich in vitamin E.

My Fall Wish List

fall wishlist



Hello Ladies can you believe fall is around the corner. And to tell you the truth I am happy. I was never a big fan of Fall and I don't know why. I guess  while I was in school I always thought that summer was better because I could see my family and travel more often. But now I am obsessed with Fall. And it all starts with the way I dress. No more hot summer days and no more bright clothing or nail polish. 

I already started washing all of my cardigans and scarfs that were hiding in my closet. But a little shopping won't hurt right ? This is my fall wish list. These are all my necessities in order to survive this fall. A good pair of riding boots and the perfect dark lipstick oh and I love the Bath and body works candles.  Another thing that I love about fall is New york Fashion week ! Super excited to see the new collections of my favorite designers.

What is on your wish list for this fall.

XOXO Andrea

Back To School Favorites : College Edition

school




Hello September !  It's finally here and although summer is not gone yet that is how I feel after Labor day.  I am a bit nostalgic not because summer is over but because students are heading back to a new year of hard school work. I don't know why but I am sad !! I truly am. I thought that after graduating college I would be happy  because I would be entering the real world and finally i wouldn't have to write 10 page papers for my Global Communications class. 

Last week I met with my best friend because she wanted  to buy her school supplies. I was just their by her side while she was looking around for notebooks and pens.  While I was looking around, I would see students looking for the same things. It was so funny that I told her to pick the pink five star notebook in my honor. So she did of course. My Family members think is pathetic but I have been in school all my life and I actually enjoyed being in school and learning new things.

  So I decided to do a back to school post on what I would usually take to college with me. These would never leave my bag. I have included a Long Champ tote because it is my favorite bag I used it for 3 years straight and now it's just hiding in my closet because I don't want to throw it away, too many memories. I hope everyone that is going back to school have a great year full of achievements. While I can't wait to enter grad school in the Spring.  

BTW this is my beat up Long Champ just in case you wouldn't believe me. :)

The Perfect Day to Night Outfit

day to night outfit



As I have said a million times before that I love to shop for outfits that can have different outcomes from casual to chic or even the perfect after work night outfit. I am a big fan of J.Crew I love everything and one of the things that I love is their skirts. Especially this skirt and since I am in love with prints I think this is the perfect skirt for work or  for a night outfit. It has a great balance and the print on it is just perfect. 

I have created this look for the typical young woman that is fashionable yet works in the corporate world or something similar or that simply loves to wear print skirts. On the left you can see I have added black flats, an over sized watch and a great bag big enough to fit all of her stuff. ( my kind of bag) You can also include a cardigan for the chilly days at the office like this one from J Crew.

On the right I added a bib necklace. It  is a great statement piece, it gives the outfit a touch of glam. A black clutch of course by Clare Vivier, nude pair of heels and a bold lipstick. 

I think this outfit is versatile and great for day and night. Good for the office at day or wine time with friends or the boyfriend. What you Gals think ? leave a comment

Sexy Girls Night Out Outfit

Sexy




 shirt jeans / shoes / purse bangle

Happy Friday Ladies ! This week for my Inspiration board I decided to do a "sexy" outfit . Well my twist to a casual night. Boyfriend jeans are great all year round you can dress them up or down, and that is my motto when I am shopping. I like to search for clothing pieces that i can wear on a casual day or on a dress up day. I love leopard print I think it's sexy and it gives a lot of character to your outfit. I mean I am sucker for animal print it is just gorgeous. I think this outfit is great to go out with your girlie's on a girls night out or date night. It's casual, fun, sexy and great to spend a great night full of laughter. One of my favorite pieces in this outfit is the silk Tibi top. it has a touch of elegance yet it still fun. If you like to show you back a bit this is the perfect one to wear. So get ready to rock the streets. Great for this weekend. Enjoy your last couple of weeks left of the summer.

BTW the Mac lipstick is Ruby woo

J.Crew Celine Esque Bag

.



                                                                        Check It Here !

Hello Gals long time ago I wrote a post on this Celine bag because I was obsessed with it. Well since I live on a budget due to that I am a recent college graduate trying to move to a new city that means I have to save as much as I can so I couldn't buy the bag . I still brag about the Celine bag but another Celine handbag that I love is the Trapeze bag. It is gorgeous and spacious but is way out of my budget. 

I decided to give up UNTIL I saw this bag at last week at J.Crew while I was just roaming around the store. I literally had to stop and the first thing that I thought was CELINE it looks like one and it almost has the same design it is called the GOODWINN BAG. 

I was afraid to look at the price but they are under 200 dollars. I mean they are not as big as the Celine bag but it fits a lot of things and I can use it as a cross body bag you can dress it down or up. AND I WANT IT ! I think the price is great and it's gorgeous. Which one is your favorite ?

Simple and Summery

simple





I am a girly girl and love to put on some heels and a fun dresses  but for most of the time in the summer I love to rock my denim shorts and a simple tee. I went on a mini weekend getaway with my best friend and the first thing I packed was my favorite denim shorts from JCrew. I think you can dress them up or down. 

As I said before I am all about being comfortable and especially in this summer weather.  This is my favorite summer outfit it's comfortable, easy going and casual for the city. Especially those flip flips their an upgrade of your everyday flip flops.

Their is one thing here that is driving me nuts and it is the bag. I have recently seen a lot of girls in the city with this bag. It its simply gorgeous i have seen it on Olivia Palermo I just think is a must have. I was looking for it and it was sold out every where but I finally found it. Can't wait until it arrives.

Summer Party Outfit

summer party outfit



Hello Gals, this weekend was super fun. I went to my first summer party and let me tell you that I had so much fun the conclusion of it is that my feet still hurt from so much dancing. When my cousin/ Best Friend invited me to the party two weeks ago I got so happy. I had to start thinking what I was going to wear and of my  hair and makeup. I planned an outfit that   was pretty , summery and very classy. I hope you like it I included a ponytail because after my first dance I had my hair in a ponytail it was so hot and my hair doesn't do very well with hot places. the ponytail looked actually pretty nice because I had beachy waves so it still looked great with my outfit. Happy Monday !

White Shorts On A Casual Summer Day

Untitled #511




 12 , 3,  4, 5 , 6

Hey Dolls ! On Monday I forgot to tell you a bit o f this past weekend so here it goes. It was super fun I went on a  mini road trip with my friends which included pizza and beer two things which I haven't had  over  four months yes I know ho dare I but it's due to my new eating habits but once in a while I am sure it won't do any damage. On our mini road trip we had so much fun we sang our lungs out, told stories, talked about boys and of course fashion. I was telling my friends that I want a pair of white shorts so that's why today's Inspiration is  about white shorts. White shorts are the perfect shorts for the summer you can basically wear it with anything and that's why I love them. You can  dress them up or down. This is how i would pair it up super  easy and and great for this summer.  I'm on the hunt for the perfect white denim shorts. I really like these bad boys. What you gals think ?

Fourth Of July Outfit

outfit


Happy Fourth of July !!!!  we cannot forget the day that America Declared Independence.  Being born and raised in NYC I remember being with my parents and going over the Hudson river to watch the Fireworks. They just looked incredible. What I also love of 4th of July is people's creativity on how they wear the American Flag Colors on their clothing, from Nail designs, to hair pieces or simply what I am doing here I have created a little inspiration for girls like me that like to represent the colors of their country but in a subtle way. Today on July fourth my Mom and I will be in the city well because one of the biggest things that i love is the fourth of July sales....I am going to check out a couple of stores and after that I will be attending a casual fourth of July BBQ with  friends and family to celebrate this gorgeous day.


I hope everyone enjoys Fourth of July !!

Simplicity of A Friday Outfit !

Friday Outfit


TGIF ! Thank God Is Friday Literally this week has been a bit hectic for me. I have been running around attending different interviews and also working long hours. Thankfully Fridays are more relaxing....although I still have to work full day.  As I said before on my other blog post that in the summer I hate wearing a lot of accessories due to that my skin doesn't cope very well in the summer and also because I don't want to feel like I am over dressed or have too much on. That is why I love to wear dresses especially maxi dresses, a pair of flip flops and hit the streets. This is the perfect outfit that identifies my not so busy Friday on a hot summer day. Thankfully these past couple of days have been extremely nice and not raining or cold. I hope everyone enjoy their weekend.

June has finally arrived that means hot summer days and many iced coffees. Yep I am addicted to ice coffee. As a New Yorker I know summer gets pretty bad . I try to use as much as possible cotton clothes or light clothing pieces and very minimal with my accessories. I want to be comfortable and not feel like i have too much on.  This is my typical outfit on a hot summer day. Its chic and casual.

So.... what it your typical summer outfit ?

Relaxed Spring Day In NYC

Relaxed day in the UES




 dress / shoes, / jewelry / fragrance,  / nail polish

Hello Girlies I hope everyone had a great Memorial Weekend. My weekend consisted of yummy pancakes from Clinton St Bakery and days with a lot of laughter and shopping (making damage).  This week is more relaxed and finally is not raining
 So i decided to go with my friends to the Met Museum and have lunch at Central park. I just love laying a Turkish towel on the grass and sit down chat and  wonder around. Of course with a super relaxed outfit. This is my inspiration, this is how I am feeling right now with a twist of elegance. I hope everyone enjoy the last couple of days of spring before summer hits up.

XOXO Andrea
