Emerald City

Around the holidays, I purchased a new deep green sweater from the Polo RL Factory Store. The salesman and I were chatting about how it’s a shame that this color only seems to be widely available at Christmastime. Wrong we were, at least for this year, because Emerald is Pantone’s 2013 Color of the Year!

I’m a little excited to say the least, and can’t wait to continue pairing it with navy– one of my favorite color combos.

[Santa Catalina Sweater, ModCloth, $35]
[Musee Rodin Skirt, ModCloth, $35]
[Eyepopper Flats, Nine West, $89]
[The Lovelock Minibag, Madewell, $138]
[Emerald Trillion Bib, BaubleBar, $32]

Are you as thrilled as I am about spending 2013 in the Emerald City? To see my favorites from past Colors of the Year, click here!

Fall Lust List

I have the September issues. I’ve been reading the blogs. I’ve browsed the stores. And this is what I’ve come up with as my official autumn wish list…

1 // A Kelly-green blazer or jacket. I’ve wanted one ever since Anne Hathaway rocked the color in The Devil Wears Prada.
Couldn’t A-green More Blazer, ModCloth, $55

2 // Peplum. It was so trendy this spring/summer, but I really only picked up one piece in the cut, and am lusting after more!
Peplum Ponte Tank, Anthropologie, $78

3 // A timeless, leather bag. An investment piece I hope will last for many falls to come.
Newnham Side Bag, Jack Wills, $298

4 // Neck scarves. So Jackie O. And how adorable is this fox print?
Foxy Printed Chiffon Scarf, Tory Burch, $165

5 // I love my Lilly Pulitzer umbrella, but the bright pink and green doesn’t blend so well during November rain storms.
Lyndhurst Umbrella, Jack Wills, $39.50

6 // Flat tan boots. They go with [almost] everything in my closet.
Candence Boots, Steve Madden, $99

7 // Tory Burch flats. For everything the boots don’t match.
Reva Ballerina Flat, Tory Burch, $195

8 // Loafers. I especially love ones with preppy details like the horse, and tassels.
Marshmallow Loafers with Trim, ASOS, $43

9 // Nautical jewelry. To keep the feeling of New England summers alive all through the cold temperatures.
Crimson Fish Cuff, BaubleBar, $42

Eat Cake For Breakfast

Purple tee, Zara // Lace bandeau, Free People // White shorts, H&M // Sequin bobby, ban.do // Belt, J Crew [similar] // Bangles, Alex and Ani // Wrap bracelet, unkown [similar 1; 2] // Call to Action Gia Pouch, Kate Spade // Loafers, Forever 21 [similar 1, 2]

As far as life mottos go, I say this is a pretty good one. I am fully obsessed with this cosmetic bag-turned-clutch courtesy of Kate Spade New York’s surprise friends and family sale a few weeks ago. It has a nice little way of reminding me to not always play by the rules. Savor life’s sweetest moments. Things like that.

Best Foot Forward

You always dress in yellow, when you wanna dress in gold.

Who sings that GO!

Yeah. Hilary Duff.

But it’s the inspiration for my Friday’s Fancies today! One of my new year’s resolutions is to stop being afraid. So when {av} announced that today’s theme is “Best Foot Forward,” I thought, might as well take a leap and embrace something I’d probably have been too shy to wear before now…

Sparklyglittergoldloafers:

Darby Glitter Loafers, J Crew, $215
Audrey Hepburn Tee, Ruche, $40
&Sqin Jeans, H&M UK, $47
Black Spots Book Necklace, CatBird, $52
Bleeker Street Straw Large Tote, Coach, $398
Leather Bow Clip, American Apparel, $16

As for the rest of the outfit? I just like it.

Happy weekend everyone!

A little leopard

Zippity shoe da, Zappos Tuesday….

I don’t think it’s any secret that leopard is one of the biggest trends to be sporting this fall, especially when it comes to footwear. Personally, I’m excited for it– no longer is leopard being seen as tacky (or is it still to you? I want to hear your thoughts!). But I am KICKING myself because I have been searching for weeks now for an old pair of leopard flats I had in high school and I’m finally admitting to myself I think I must have thrown them out years ago, never stopping to believe that animal print would actually come back in. Little did I know!

But alas, I’m now without them and instead have my eyes on these beauties now…
