Now that February is practically over I'm constantly thinking of springtime. Only a few more weeks until spring is officially here (I know this because my brithday is also on the first day of spring: March 20th)...but with all the cold and snow yet to come I need a little bit of visual motivation to get my mind there. These dresses seem to do the trick!

Quilted Jacquard Flare Dress available at LOFT- $79.50

Swing Dress in Retro Floral Print available at ASOS- $46

Fit & Flare Sundress available at Gap- $59.95


I want every single one of them for the spring season. Which ones are your favorite???

Christian Siriano- Fall 2015 RTW

Christian Siriano's collections are always one of my favorites. Year after year he comes through and amazes me with his creative genius. This year was all about funky prints (including animal), Pantone's color of the year, and beautiful choices of material (from silk to feathers to taffeta). This collection is all sorts of drama...but in the most ladylike way possible.


What do you think of Christian Siriano's latest collection?

Favorites: Red Lipstick

Pink may be my favorite color, but when it comes to lipstick red is my go to hue. I'm usually wearing red lipstick about 90% of the time...and even that isn't nearly enough. Since I often get asked what shade of lipstick I'm wearing, I thought it would be fun to put together my current five favorite lip colors that are in my makeup bag. What I love about all of these is how long they last. Long lasting red lipstick is super important to me! I don't want to be applying it every few hours.

To me this color is the purest red I have found. When you think red lips, you think Russian Red!

This is a brighter red with a slight orange tint to it. It instantly brightens up my face when I wear it.

This shade of red is leaning a little more to the violet and berry end of the spectrum. I wear this for a more dramatic and sultry look.

This feels like a gloss, but holds up like a stain. This shade of red leaves my lips looking like I just ate a bowl full of cherries.

When I really want bright and bold lips I wear this lip stain. This color literally lasts all day and it isn't drying like how stains typically are.


Do you have a favorite shade of red? Please share it in the comment section below...as I'm always wanting to try out new makeup (especially when they are recommended).

Crazy Cat Lady


Okay...not really. I am a dog person. But, I am totally obsessed with these adorable cat tights. The only thing cuter would be if they had my dog Rocko's face on them. Hmmm...now there is an idea!


cute kitten faces on the front

adorable tails on the back


The first time I wore these tights I must have gotten stopped about ten times from people on the streets of NYC saying that they loved them. When I would turn around to show them that they also had tails they would burst out in laughter saying that my legwear was awesome. Totally made my day! Humor through legwear...I love it!!!

Floral + Pleather

tunic: Zara thrifted at Crossroads Trading Co./pleather pants: H&M/necklace: Baublebar/boots: Dr. Martens


Today I decided to do something a little crazy and out of the ordinary...wear pants! I absolutely love my tights and live in skirts and dresses (yes, even on the weekends). I guess I was feeling a little crazy today. Maybe because it is February...maybe because of the snowstorm on the horizon...maybe because of all of the smoke I breathed in yesterday...who knows!?!?


I really love this new tunic (or maybe it is a shrunken dress?) that I picked up at Crossroads Trading Co. I always have the best luck there. Speaking of Crossroads, I really need to get there very soon. My closet is overflowing and I need to get rid of some stuff (AKA make room for some new clothing).
