North v. South Style: Mixing Prints

Hola!  Happy Friday!  Not so happy because it's our last week of the #northvsouthstyle collab but today is happy because well, it's Friday.  Gosh it's been a crazy week.  I keep going through these periods of being not so busy to running around at 1,000 MPH.  It's cray.

Anyway, this week we are going out with a bang and styling our favorite printed pieces together.  I know, mixing prints is like this crazy new thing that no one has ever done before ;).  But really - I was very excited for this theme because I feel like mixing prints has helped me expand my wardrobe options.  If you stopped by on Wednesday you saw some of my favorite prints together.  

Without further adieu here's how we styled our prints!  You can see my full post below!

A Tomato Safari

I get compliments every time I wear this blouse.  Everyone always likes the giraffes or the rhinos, and then they realize it's a whole slew of safari animals on my blouse which is pretty awesome.  Props to my grandma for getting me this blouse for Christmas - it's one of those quirky pieces that goes with a lot of things and adds a twist to any outfit.

Blazer: H&M (similar here), Blouse: Target, Pants: Gap (similar here and here), Shoes: Me Too (similar here or here), Necklace: Target (old)

Easy Burgundy

Happy Monday everyone!!  I hope you had a beautiful weekend.  I shot this outfit a couple of weeks ago with Jen in Washington Square Park and I have to say, I am officially obsessed with her lens.  Definitely going to be my next investment for my camera!  This is such a typical weekend outfit for me, especially on days when I'm doing a leisurely brunch or coffee with friends and running errands.  I know it's kind of a crime to wear "leggings" as pants but these are technically "ponte pants" so I think it skirts the rules.  Or at least I'll tell myself it does!

Sweater: LOFT, Blouse: LOFT (similar here and other favorites in this post), Pants: Uniqlo (similar here), Flats: Me Too (other favorite leopard flats here and here), Necklace: Stella & Dot, Watch: Fossil, Bracelet: Gift, Purse: Louis Vuitton

Layered Puffer Vest

Happy Friday everyone!  Remember my post from Wednesday?  Well I'm here to show you how I brought the puffer vest trend to life!  It was actually a little too hot for all of these layers but for blogging purposes I had to take one for the team ;).  And btw, I'm not complaining at all that it was a little too warm for all this.  I've been loving all the sunshine we've had lately!  So tell me, have you styled a puffer vest lately?  Leave a link in the comments below - I'd love to see it!

Coat: SheInside (similar here and here), Vest: Gap (similar here or here; other favorites here), Sweater: Gap, Skirt: J.Crew (similar here, pleated here, colorblocked here) Tights: J.Crew, Shoes: Me Too (love these similar flats), Bracelets: Thrifted & C.Wonder, Watch: Fossil

Leopard and (faux) Leather

Happy Monday everyone! No, I didn't copy this outfit directly from Blair; I actually took these pictures well over a month ago.  Read: the beginning days of owning this sweater before my obsession truly set in.  Kinda funny how similar the looks are!  And even though I took these photos about a month ago, the weather has been such that I could definitely wear it now.  It's such an easy combination and shows how you can take a pair of shorts from summer to fall to winter (as long as it's not freezing where you are this winter) with the addition of tights and a chunky knit. 

Sweater: Gap, Shorts: Sears (old but similar here and here), Tights: Anthropologie, Shoes: Me Too (other favorites here and here), Bracelets: Stella & Dot & Thrifted, Purse: Louis Vuitton

TGIF/Monochromatic Green

Happy Friday everyone!  I hope you all had a lovely week!  I've got a busy weekend working and gearing up for the Thanksgiving weekend!  My best friend is coming into town to visit (because it's also my birthday!) and we will be spending turkey day at a friend's family's house!  What do you have planned for this weekend?

Still sporting my favorite hunter jeans, last week I decided to add a minty touch to my outfit.  I really love the way this color combo turned out!  I think mint is one of the best greens to pair with hunter because I don't see olive, kelly or lime pairing well.  But who knows!  I'll have to try and see how they look (and of course I'll let you know)! 

Sweater: Anthropologie, Blouse: Zara (similar on sale here and here), Jeans: Gap (similar here and here), Shoes: Me Too (similar here or here), Necklaces: Stella & Dot and Etsy, Watch: Fossil

 

Thank you Jess for taking my photos!

Dressy and Casual: One Blouse, Two Ways

Sunday was an exciting day for me!  I started training at Anthropologie where I will be working as a part-time sales associate (can I get a hallelujah that I'm finally getting paychecks?!)!  I found this blouse on sale at H&M last week (seriously only $10.  Insane aka couldn't help it.) and paired with my lace skirt because they told us to come in the "anthro" look.  I was loving the blouse so much that I kept it on for the street festival adventure with Jess and Rose later that afternoon.  The skirt was too dressy (and not warm enough!) so on went the jeans and scarf.

Ta-da!

Top: H&M, Skirt: Forever 21, Shoes: Me Too, Purse: Vintage, Bracelets: Kristin Hassan & Tiffany & Co

Jeans: Gap, Scarf: H&M

#IFBCon Outfits

Happy Monday friends!  It's been quite the whirlwind week [and a half...] since I last posted!  I really need to get into a better schedule/routine that gets me focused back on this little guy! 

To catch you up on my life: I accepted an internship with StyleSight, attended the IFB Conference last Tuesday/Wednesday and then started my internship last Thursday and it's been non-stop since.  I've done a lot in the office and also had the opportunity to cover three shows and two presentations and volunteered to work this past weekend.

The IFB Conference was probably one of the best things I could have done since moving here - it allowed me to meet and connect with so many bloggers (both in NY and around the country!) and it gave me a lot to think about with my blog.  I've got a lot to reflect on and work on but I'm excited!

Without further adieu, here's what I wore (and pardon the shine - this humidity + my skin + end of the day pictures = shine...)!

Day 1



Shirt: Zara, Pants: Loft, Shoes: Elizabeth & James, Bag: Louis Vuitton, Watch: Fossil, Bracelet: J.Crew

Day 2



Dress: Zara, Belt: Gap, Bracelets: Tiffany & Co | Express, Shoes: Me Too
