Velvet Slip and Jacquemus Knit Layering

December 28, 2015



If I had to sum up this year in a few words, I would say “It was fun while it lasted.” The view, from where I am, looking back, is quite nice.

That’s why I’m getting a little more festive this time and throwing a dress over myself to ring in the new year.

For someone who likes recycling clothes as if I’m on a mission to milk the most out of everything I own - I couldn’t just buy a dress to wear it once. This velvet slip however, had me at pockets!

In New York City, it’s always cold for New Years, and luckily turtlenecks are in this year because I love how they look under a cami silhouette. But just incase it’s a little warmer, I opted for a lace bralette under, a slouchy coat and over the knee boots for a sleek touch.

As the year comes to an end, there’s this feeling of excitement that comes over me. 2015 has been such a great year, and I think it’s the first year where I was able to fulfill some of my resolutions, which I generally forget easily a few days after all of the celebration.

2015 closed a really important chapter of my life. As I turned 22, graduating college, and finding my very first full-time job was two of the top things on my to-do list as they will pave ways into some of the things that I have in mind for 2016. I was lucky enough to travel to several places this year, Italy was definitely a highlight and I can’t wait to explore the rest of it in the near future. As I get older, the list of things that are important has definitely grown shorter, but traveling has somehow made it’s way up that condensed list of priorities.

For now, 2016 will be a year where I will have the opportunity to start fresh. First up on my list will be to kill all of my student loans, and of course, the second, is to collect more stamps in my Passport.

Were you able to keep some of your resolutions this year? And what are your resolutions for 2016?

Turtleneck Sweater Vest

October 20, 2020

Not that anyone's going to notice, but this turtleneck sweater vest is literally three of this year's biggest trends meshed in one. Let's break it down, the padded shoulders is one, the mock turtleneck is two, and of course, the sleeveless factor making it a sweater vest is the third. All of a sudden, this 90's trend is making a big comeback this Fall, and possibly for Spring, too. Surely, we are collectively wishing that 2020 was either over or didn't exist at all, but so many trends lately have been showing our yearnings for the good old 90's days again.

While I'm not often one to hop onto seasonal trends, I gravitated towards these sweater vests because of their versatility for layering in the Fall and Winter. I'm already picturing color-blocking them with ribbed knits or long sleeve bodysuits or turtlenecks. A little oversized and they are perfect to go with the new pair of knee-high boots that I've been posting about. I'm also looking forward to even pairing them with something sheer and sparkly underneath to stay cozy and festive for the holidays. I included some other great options for you guys to explore right below.
