Definitely getting this amazing Voyager suede duffel from Madewell to be my all purpose Fall/Winter bag. I love the “fatigue” color and the suede/chain combo! Is it inappropriate to go back to school shopping when you are no longer in school? Grr.

I have been going to more and more healing events and therefore am in desperate need of expanding my white wardrobe. I think these pieces would suit the occasion and still look fabulous!

I wrote back in November, about pants being restrictive and uncomfortable. I feel like as a girl I have so many options (shorts, skirts, dress) that are better suited to me, especially in the weather that we have been having in New York.

That’s why I love onesies! Not only do I not want to wear pants, but I actually like wearing as few pieces of clothing as possible and a onesie cuts down that number and it makes me very happy!

My newest purchase is this amazing BCBG silk onesie in a soft navy blue. It’s light, comfortable, easy to get on and off (which is very important to consider when purchasing a onesie, some can be very tricky) and feels like I’m not wearing anything at all!!

I have gone on several shopping sprees at Madewell since the store opened downtown and this past week has been no different. They are having an insane sale right now which only makes spending money there easier, but overall I just love their stuff. Given the fact that I don’t wear jeans, their specialty, there are tons of things that I love and that will transition into fall beautifully.

Most recently I walked away with some slouchy jean shorts, jodhpurs, a great pair of khaki slacks and a blousy floral top — perfection in clothes form.

I purchased my first ever pair of Christian Louboutin shoes, at a time when I absolutely can’t actually afford them — I feel like it’s the only time I would really have the balls to splurge, even though they were still on sale at Neiman Marcus.

As much pain as it was on my wallet, I am totally and completely in love. Now I am thinking that moving to a warmer climate might be just the ticket. That way I can get as much bang for my buck as possible and be able to wear them close to all year round. But for now, strutting down the New York City streets in them makes me very very happy. And they are actually pretty comfortable!

I have been seeking the perfect double finger ring for months now and I have finally found it! This amazing Parrot from Forever 21 fits my middle and ring finger perfectly and has been great inspiration for new nail polish choices. My new favorites are Red My Fortune Cookie, Green-Wich Village, Need Sunglasses OPI.

There you have it. I have been saying this for months and now there is empirical evidence!

This is what I ended up wearing to the wedding. It was a last minute purchase and I absolutely fell in love with it. There was a Tibi dress that I found back in January that I was sure I was going to wear to the wedding but couldn’t find it anywhere. This Caracas printed silk dress was perfect for light and breezy wedding Noah and Leila had, and looked great while I busted some moves on the dance floor!  Wedding pictures soon to come.

I would like to announce, before anyone finds out and thinks that I am hiding it that I am in fact wearing pants today. I recently bought a pair of big and comfy boyfriend jeans (are they even “in” anymore?) and am donning them today for ultra comfort. It’s going to be a dark and potentially stormy day and I liked the idea of wearing something that was loose but still somewhat covered up and warm.

I’m not sure how I feel about it. They are slightly stretchy, so perhaps they aren’t a full departure from my No Pants rule, but nonetheless most would consider these jeans actual pants (not jeggings) and I wanted to share the news!

*The title of this post should be said the way the MC announces the new Cirque Du Soleil show, BANANA SHPEEL!

These are my new banana shoes and just looking at them make me smile. SCORE! Even though they look very flat they are actually quite comfortable! DOUBLE SCORE! And finally I am firm believer that yellow (especially in accessories and shoes) matches with everything, so today I am wearing them with a old standby, favorite dress! TRIPLE WORD SCORE, DONE AND DONE!
