Feels like I'm falling for fall....

Dress: Target
Shirt: Thrifted
Boots: Vintage

Do any of you with small children watch Noggin/Nick Jr.? I've been babysitting my niece a ton lately, and she's addicted to the "Puzzle Time" guys that come on between shows - you know the song "It feels like I'm falling for fall"? It's been stuck in my head for weeks! Help!!

Also, I recently got a job! It's just doing retail in a big box store, apparel + accessories, but it isn't too bad. My coworkers are so great, and the store is fairly quiet, so I figure I can make some money this way while continuing to apply for jobs in NYC. Let me know if you hear of anyone looking to hire a Psychology/Sociology major!

Happy Halloween + a winner!

Dress: Target
Gloves: H&M
Sunglasses: Burberry

Take a wild guess as to who I was for Halloween... Holly Golightly, of course! I was having the hardest time deciding what to be, going from Cowgirl to American Apparel Ad to Lady Gaga (oh my gosh everyone was Lady Gaga!), but when I found this dress at Target it was decided - I *had* to be Holly Golightly! I already had the pearls and tiara and gloves, so it worked out excellently. What did you all go as for Halloween? And if you have pictures post links to them, I love seeing everyone all dressed up, it's the best part of Halloween (even better than the candy!).


And *drumroll please*... the winner of the Ella Moss tank from the Breast Cancer Awareness contest last month was... Jaime of La Vie... J'aime! Congrats Jamie! Check your email!

The city never sleeps, better slip you an ambien


I've been a horrible blogger lately, I'm so so sorry! I've been very busy, but I promise I have some posts I'm working on that will hopefully go up over the weekend. For now, I hope this video can serve as an apology! Let's hear it for New York!

Hope you all have a Happy Halloween!

Blazer: Thrifted
Tee: Fashion's Night Out
Jeans: Current/Elliott
Boots: Vintage Justin
Hat: Urban Outfitters

I had a whole long post typed out, and then my Firefox crashed. Don't you hate it when that happens? Well, it's been that kind of a weekend. But I did score two amazing vintage pieces on ebay and the perfect long black tank dress (which I've been looking for forever!) for 75% off at Target. The rain brings out the shopaholic in me!

Don't forget to enter to win a gorgeous Ella Moss top this month! Last day to enter is October 31st!

In the mood for a little COLOR!
