Winterized

Happy Thursday beautiful people!  I think by know you've probably guessed that my favorite color is red.   There is something so electric about this bright hue that has me in a color love affair.  So today while searching my closet for an outfit it was certainly a no brainer on deciding if I should go for jeans or my thrifted red pleated skirt. I've rocked this skirt a few times in the summer and was super excited to winterize this piece. Tights, layering and a good old coat all helped in putting this winterized look together.

Weekend at Grandma's

It was a pretty relaxing Saturday for me.  I decided to take a trip  on over to the Bronx and pay a visit to Grandma Lila.  I chatted it up with her and got in her way once or twice as she prepared sweet potato pie.  I instantly morphed into a little girl as I anxiously waited for the pie to be done.  Asking every twenty seconds, "is it done yet".  And let me tell you when it was done you better believe I tore my slice up. Ok maybe the three slices but hey judge don't me, it was good.  After devouring my slices I decided to take a few pics of my outfit.  The weather has taken a bit of a turn in NYC and we are officially in coat weather.  I decided to layer my furry vest with my faux leather jacket to keep warm and to my surprise it did.

Closet Shopping

I'm sure i'm not alone when it comes to my views on closet shopping.  It's  almost always an act that is brought on as a last resort.  Well at least for me it is.  More recently I challenged myself to dig deeper into my closet and go searching for unworn items.  A minute or two into the short search I found these faux leather pants and this thrifted tuxedo blazer with the tags still attached.  Ladies and Gents we have an outfit.

Copy Cat

After seeing the amazingly beautiful Brittany from Pockets and Bows rock out her Old Navy striped dress I ran right on over to Old Navy and grabbed up that bad boy. I went for a rocker look pairing this color block goodness with silver accessories, a leather jacket and some booties.  I love it when I can get inspiration from other bloggers.  Who are some bloggers that have inspired you recently?
