I think part of the requirements of moving to NYC in the middle of winter is purchasing an over sized faux fur trapper, and I will happily oblige. E. badu is giving me all types of fever in hers. Here are some good priced ones that I found. And I tossed in some other hats for good measure if trappers are not your thang.

so today I went to the LF Warehouse sale where I got quite a few things. But the featurette is called "what I wore" so this is it. I got this tan jacket from Ross like 4 years ago, the belt came with a skirt awhile ago, jeans are forever 21, fuschia knee boots, and a sample bag from the garment district. Oh yeah, the scarf comes from Nassau...like my look?

Transition your wardrobe

in this economy who has money to go out and purchase a brand new winter wardrobe?!?!?! not I... so I am going to give you a few examples of how to "winterize: your spring & summer pieces into looks for the fall & winter by following these basic trend reports. First up:: black tights under your shorts. I did not like this trend at all to begin with, but it has really grown on me, why should you have to hide your shorts for 3-6 months. Slap some black opaque stocking under those shorts & with a great pair of boots and keep it moving into this chilly season. You can pair the look with an oversized cardigan or a statement blazer. I'll blog tomorrow on another transition trend:: turtlenecks with spring dresses!


                                                       




And here are a few looks I created via polyvore, I really love these looks!




Wishlist:: fashion books & magazines

in an effort to become more educated on the history of fashion and to learn more about styling these are some books that I want to have in my collection...

                            and for the magazine subscriptions I need. I want. I must have.
