So close I can taste it....
It’s not really time for spring, but the weather seems to have other ideas.  Word on the street (or weather.com) is that it’s gonna be in the 60s and sunny Friday.  Booyah. I busted out my purple blazer in celebration.  I am OBSESSED with this thing - and have decided I need to match my lip color to it whenever I wear it.  <3 The colors in the scarf helped pull everything...

Cat suit...
Girls’ night out calls for some awesome shoes and an outfit that’s made for dancing.  I decided that I needed to channel Catwoman’s confidence - and go sleek.    Every woman has those parts of herself that she wishes she could change and those times when negative thoughts creep up and try to ruin her day.  Thoughts like, “why isn’t my insert-body-part-here...

With a twist...
This is my favorite type of outfit - one that is classic, flattering (hopefully), with a little bit of a badass twist.  faux leather pants: urban outfitters, blouse: forever, pumps: calvin klein, purse: francesca’s, sunnies: kenneth cole, watch: guess, bangles: mostly gifts. I am a huge fan of a great white blouse - at any given time I have about five variations circulating through...

Bibbed...
I love this bib necklace.  It added a bit of glamour to my otherwise neutral outfit. skirt and necklace: forever 21, dress (worn as a top): h&m, blazer: limited, booties: charlotte rousse (don’t judge me - they were $15 and are COMFORTABLE). It also adds a bit of put-togetherness on a day where I obviously couldn’t be bothered to do my hair (helllllooooo generic pony-tail).  ...

Vacations are awesome...
It’s my last night in Florida and I thought I’d share some pictures of my amazing vacation.  I’ll try to throw some outfits in as much as possible - but instead of focusing on blogging, I spent the weekend enjoying my time with my new and now MUCH larger (and AMAZING) family and friends.  :) Gorgeous morning on the beach.  My mom and I after the bridal brunch:  my dress:...

Florida dreaming...
I wore this before I left Pittsburgh this week - but obviously my heart was already in South Florida.  I transitioned to bright colors and pumps from neutral sweaters and boots with SUPER thick socks… jeans: wet seal, top: gift from the Goblet (thank you! love it!), blazer and necklace: forever 21, pumps: carlos santana, ring: francesca’s, leather cuff: h&m.   xoxo CK

Valentimes is serious times...
I kinda look like a walking holiday-cliche today…but I think Valentine’s day calls for some hot pink and lace.  skirt and blazer: h&m, blouse: forever 21. In keeping with the Looooove-theme, here’s a quick peak at the dress I will be wearing to celebrate my mom’s wedding to her amazing fiance this week in Florida (I did get it hemmed up a bit and it will be ironed...

Split personality...
Somedays, my preppy Connecticut roots come out in the form of stripes, button downs, and aviators. Other days (when it’s snow flurrying), I just want to be slouchy in a HUGE men’s style sweater and tough boots. skirt and tee: h&M, cardigan: forever 21, aviators: kenneth cole, tights: no clue, booties: forgot (I’m doing bad today!), belt: jcrew, button down: banana...

Pink pants take two...
I looove all this colored denim that is out right now - but I’m having the hardest time working them into my everyday outfit repertoire.  You all saw the mild failure of the pink work pants…but I think that was more of the pants fault than the styling (stretchiness in the wrong places is no bueno).  I’ve been doing a lot of blog searching to see how the stylish wear colored pants...

Someone was listening...
I guess I picked a great week to offend the winter-weather gods because don’t you know the weather has been GORGEOUS since my I’m-so-bored-I-want-to-go-to-a-beach-party-poor-poor-me-I-live-in-a-state-with-seasons-and-apparently-need-coffee-and-a-nap rant blog post.  I actually saw some guy out and about in flip flops and shorts and although I def didn’t go THAT far, I have to...
