California Chill

Los Angeles, CA

Happy New Year! Yes, it has been that long since I last posted. I hope you are all off to a great 2016. Here in LA, it’s been unseasonably cold and I have been unseasonably busy. My schedule has been packed with travel, work and fun—so I have very few complaints.

With the New Year, came a fresh new ‘do for me! My hairdresser convinced me to cut off SIX INCHES. And so for the first time in forever, I have short hair. Technically it is called a LOB and though I hate the name, I am really starting to love the look!

This morning I am chilly and oh so sleepy (if you can’t tell) so I decided to go for a very casual, very weekend-feel ensemble. I have always been into turtlenecks, on trend or not, so when I saw this striped one from LOFT I was sold—immediately. Oh and what is better than a pink blanket scarf in February? Not much! The combo is quite cozy. To be honest though, I can’t really take credit for anything I am wearing today. My mom and sister bought me all the pieces for my birthday— aren’t they just great?

Oh and the BEST part about this look? Almost everything is on SALE right now! I’ve included all the links below.

Enjoy!

Home for the Holidays

New Hampshire

Yesterday, we had Christmas Part 2 at my sister’s house. I ate so much food that I could barely sleep last night. She’s a great cook and so is her husband— it’s really a deadly (delicious) combination.

Today, we’re continuing with the food frenzy at my parent’s house, while catching up on movie watching. Yup, things are pretty tough here in New Hampshire. Aside from eating, drinking and oversleeping you should know that I’ve also been spending more time than expected outdoors. I wore this button-up skirt and sweater combo for a little afternoon stroll around the neighborhood. Although it is fifty degrees out, this look still feels very wintry so I added some over the knee boots. Perfect with this skirt, they also look great with jeans and a long sweater! Oh and how chic is this backpack? I got it for Christmas and I’m loving it.

A Cropped Christmas

Boston, MA

Merry Christmas Eve! I made it back to the East Coast just in time for the holiday AND for this wild winter heat wave. It’s warmer here in Boston than it was when I left Los Angeles and it honestly feels like spring is in the air. Everyone here seems to be excited about it, but I have to say, I really enjoy my yearly snow fix. And who doesn’t love a white Christmas?

Here’s to hoping things take a turn for the cold! Until then, I’ll be dressed accordingly. I’m wearing this fun cropped turtleneck top and a vegan leather midi skirt. I love a good midi skirt this time of year and I must say, it’s pretty great that I can actually wear these pieces outside today.

Wishing you and yours a Merry Christmas and holiday break! I will be spending time with the ones I love most (pictured here).

Catch ya next year!
