Hello ladies!  So July is here and so are beach days, barbecues and poolside parties.  With that, I always find that must-haves include cute swimsuits, Panama hats, an effective sunscreen and a cute pair of cutoffs.  I've included some of each in today's post.  These two swimsuits (here and here) are both absolutely darling and way beyond affordable.  This adorable hat is on major sale (aka under $20!!) Then with the money you've saved you just might want to splurge on these gorgeous slides, haha.  I'm really not kidding.  I've linked all the pretties for you below in case you're in the mood for something new.  Have fun and I'll see you on Wednesday!

So we've made it to the weekend, which means it's time for a brand new set of Friday Faves.  If you're in need of any new pieces for now, these pretty picks are all under $200 (and some are far less!).  Great basics are what build a wardrobe you just love.  Cozy sweaters ( love these two, here and here), flattering denim and a sexy pair of wear with everything booties are my top three must-haves for a closet that kills it.  Classic handbags that add a sense oh wow to any look always make me so happy.  This one is so chic and looks like it should ring up at 4-digits.  Coming in at under $100, it's a definite add to cart.  You all know how much I love some chic little sneakers and this pair is perfect for yoga and then coffee afterwards.  A beautiful plush coat (this shade is amazing!) and classic pair of earrings round out my top nine for right now that will add mileage to your closet while leaving your wallet happy.  Which do you love?

The weather calls for snow in NYC this weekend so that means I'll be spending some time by the fireside catching up with a few friends and the latest episodes of my favorite shows.  Ahhh, I love a relaxing moment, don't you?  Wishing everyone the best of what you love...Enjoy friends!

It's Wednesday and that means it's time for a little mid-week style inspo.  Today I'm turning the spotlight on those must-have pieces you're craving for spring break.  Whether you're putting down the books or simply seeking a fun getaway with the boyfriend or hubs, these pieces are the perfect picks for some much needed fun in the sun time.  This top is so darling and wearable in so many cute ways.     I'm think of pairing it with white denim and sandals on casual days and on top of a great midi skirt  for some romantic feminine flair.  This tote has such a rich and classic feel but it definitely won't leave you broke.  Like so many items from this brand, it is completely affordable (aka under $100!).  I'm also loving this hat and these shades but those who know me are not surprised, haha.  Don't forget a spritz of sweet to keep you feeling fresh as air.  I get so many lovely compliments whenever I wear this one.  

I'm so excited for the upcoming spring vacation and finally getting to enjoy the springtime.  What about all of you? What fun destinations do you have planned?

It's officially fall and I couldn't be happier!  Autumn right up through Christmas is my absolute favorite time of year.  Apple picking, pumpkin time, gorgeous fall landscapes, wood burning fires, football, cozy socks, cuddling up, cooking, comfort foods, football and holiday cheer…all of these incredible things are just some of the reasons why.  Not to be left unnoticed, the fall canvas of clothing is always the year's absolute best.  Now that the season has fully arrived, you'll be seeing me post my most-loved looks, pieces and accessories in the weeks ahead.  Today I'm sharing one of my other greatest loves which is, the ankle boot.  This shoe has become the go-to look of the season and it's no wonder.  Anyone can wear it and (even better) in any way they like.  Personally, I love slipping mine on bare-legged and with the great swingy skirts and flowy dresses I'm loving this month.  It's a completely transitional look that allows you to look of-the-moment while feeling totally comfortable.  What's especially wonderful about this year's options is that heel heights are ranging everywhere from flat to tall and stacked to skinny.  This pair from Ralph Lauren has been on major repeat for me.  Easy to wear and so cute.  I'm also loving this saddle stitch open toe version from Tory Burch.  The color alone is enough to make one obsess.  Stacked heels, vintage mod and suede wedge styles are all quite crush-worthy and on my radar right now.  Cuffed ankle pants, flowy dresses, skinny jeans and shirt dresses all feel equally the same about this little bootie. I guess love is in the air!

It was about late July last summer when I first spied what has since become the most craved and coveted bag among savvy street stylers and everyday girls alike.  The bucket bag is the it bag of the moment and unquestionably my current fave.  Soft, richly hued and just like butter, this bag has all the elements of a true classic and wears flawlessly with just about everything.  What's even better are the options, aka colors and price points, gorgeous and varied making it so easy to find the one that's perfect for you.  I, along with nearly every other fashion-loving girl I know, am in love with this version.  It was the original one that caught my eye and has had my full attention ever since.  Given that it's been on waitlist, I've shopped other styles and have found some really wonderful options.  This Tory Burch take on the trend is fabulous (then again is there any she makes that isn't just so?) and it's more affordably priced than many.  If high end luxe is what you're after though then these options here, here and here are definitely worth considering.  Rebecca Minkoff has also put her spin on the look with this pretty little mint gem.  On a whim, I just bought this one from Sole Society and was so happily surprised by the incredible quality at just a fraction of the price!  Here's to you finding the bag of your dreams…

One piece dressing has such amazing appeal and is by far one of the easiest looks to pull off.  The maxi dress, of course, had held the spotlight in the easy breezy category for so long.  Their effortless feel and chicly pulled together look have quickly become a girl's best friend.  Now, their little sister is asking for and getting all the attention she deserves and rightfully so.  The romper is another one-piece wonder that can take you from a day at the beach to a sunset dinner for two.  There are as many styles as there are tastes and plenty to suit each one.  This sweet puff sleeve version would be perfect for a Sunday stroll followed by a relaxed sidewalk cafe stop.  I love the soft sleeve detailing and romantic girlie feel.  I'm also eyeing this one with its scalloped edging and nighttime feel.  For an ultra feminine look, this floral option is the perfect choice.  I'd love it paired with a big floppy, this bag and a some strappy flat sandals.  Hello, weekend!  Speaking of that, I hope you have a great two days coming up spent doing everything you love with anyone you adore. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Lately I find myself living in one of summer's easiest staples, the sundress.  After work and on the weekend, they are my go-to uniform.  I love how effortless yet chic they are, making them ideal for the summer months.  These looks are some of my favorite styles seen on the street.  Pairing them with strappy sandals (currently craving these, these and these) and a big floppy hat makes them as versatile as they are pretty.   And, unlike some of the wish list items I covet, sundresses are styled to fit every budget.  From the wallet-friendly to the splurge-worthy, there is a style to suit every need.  

Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday!

For as much as I've always adored the round toe ballet flat, it is almost hard to imagine that any other shape or style could steal me away.  But, it seems, the d'Orsay has done just that.  With a sleek, chic shape and elegant feel, this little shoe is sure to soon be stealing hearts all over America.  

With their coy reveal of the arch and chameleon-like ability to go from flat to five inch, this shoe's presence on the real life runway this spring is well-deserved and pure genius.  My favorite ways to wear them are as varied as the styles you see.  Midi skirts, harem pants and well-worn boyfriend denim are each the perfect companion for the new shoe du jour.  

What's your favorite new closet crave this spring?  Have a wonderful weekend everyone and thanks for reading!
