Everyone meet my new baby…aka my purse lol

I got this beauty for my birthday and am obsessed. I started looking online and I even saw people who had monogrammed the luggage tag. What do we think of this? I am all in favor because I love anything monogrammed, but I wanted to get others opinions.
(ps..I am a little sad because my camera was acting a little funky so the pictures are a little blurry, next shots will be better details).

The look was a little more urban for me, but I liked because it is not what you always see me in. I like how this was a little more of a subtle look for me.

Also, I have to mention that my brother endlessly made fun of the saying on my shirt, I will admit I didn’t really pay attention to what it said when buying it haha. But I still like it a lot.

Floating Away

THE CANVAS –

Top : H&M ~ Scarf : H&M ~ Skirt : Forever21 ~ Shoes :Forever21 ~
Necklace : Forever21 ~ Bracelet : Boutique in Mexico (similar)~ Purse : Louis Vuitton

For a night out on the town in Mexico, I wanted to wear something flowly and light, but something that had a little more coverage since the ocean breeze by the restraunts could get slightly chilly at night. The scarf is a great resource because as I got chilly, I would drape the scarf over my arms to keep warm.

I love the color-block feel to this outfit. And keeping the palette to beige and turquoise kept it simple, yet festive, for the location.

Last weekend we went to The Grand America for Sunday brunch! It is my absolute favorite in Salt Lake.
I decided to add a little twist to my otherwise conventional outfit by adding some fun detailed tights.
I am off for the holiday today and am hoping you all have a great President’s Day!

Layer It On!

*Notice the little drops of snow on my shoes. I will admit it is still freezing in flats!

THE CANVAS –

Blouse : Forever 21 (recent) ~ Fur Stole : Michael Kors (cheaper version) ~ Jacket : ASOS (on sale!) ~
Pants : Target (old) ~ Shoes : Forever 21 ~ Belt : Aldo ~ Purse : Tory Burch (on sale!) ~
Sunglasses : Michael Kors ~ Earrings : Kate Spade ~ Watch : Michael Kors ~
Ring : David Yurman ~ Bracelets : J.Crew, Forever 21, J.Crew, Brina’s Boutique

This coat has recently become my favorite go-to look! It dresses up every outfit, but also gives it some edge with the faux leather sleeves and studded collar.
Although it was a little unexpected for me, I paired it with a bright green neon blouse and shoes. These shoes are a great alternative to the toe-capped shoes I have seen at Ann Taylor and J.Crew in the past because they are so affordable. Even though this color seems trendy, I think it is going to continue to show its face these upcoming seasons when the weather starts getting warmer.
What would you pair neon green with this spring?!
