I do not know about you but with the return of the fishnet trend my Instagram feed has become saturated with photos featuring the web-like tights under dresses, jeans, skirts, etc.

Sweatshirt:MSGM|Skirt:Derek Lam (last seen here)|Pumps:Alexandre Birman(older)
And just like that….BOOM… it's Monday again.
I love graphic tee's for the summer but when the weather starts to cool down I like to look for graphic sweatshirts and other layering pieces for the fall and winter. These pullovers (that come in various styles) can be our answer to in-between-seasons dressing, but more importantly statement pieces that can be paired with unexpected separates.
I paired this sweatshirt from MSGM with a checkered, knit skirt from Derek Lam (one of my favorites.) I think it adds a really cool element to this look, not to mention the color red is always so striking. Shop more from this look below.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

Jumpsuit:Alice & Olivia (Last Seen Here)
Happy Friday to all,
Well it has been a bit of a rough time with the passing of my grandfather, I will miss him greatly as we shared a very special bond. I’m finally back on the blog and looking forward to a great summer and some travel. Just got back from spending some time in the city with my family to get a few things done then back home to shoot and can’t wait to get posting again!! Today I am wearing this white jumpsuit from Alice and Olivia. The pants and top are connected in the back by a zipper that runs straight up and then the outfit has a cute vest with a loose ruffle along the bottom over it. I can see myself getting a lot of use out of it as it is both a little dressy and casual at the same time. I have chosen to pair with a patterned shoe and then a simple black clutch for a subdued look but you could easily wear a pop of color for a statement outfit or choose to go all white. You can also switch it up a bit by taking the vest off. There are countless ways to style this look. I would love to hear how you would choose to wear it!! Have a great weekend. I’ll see you on Monday!!

Skirt:Alice & Olivia| Graphic Tee:Kate Spade (older, also love this one)
Good afternoon everyone and happy Tuesday,
Well I had a photo shoot yesterday and it was so windy it was ridiculous but all in all I got some really cute pics. I couldn’t decide which ones to post!! Feeling very Sarah Jessica Parker today in this Alice and Olivia skirt and we had so much fun shooting it. The wind was blowing it all over the place and all we did was laugh… got a lot of quirky shots but I think it gives them character. I had this Kate Spade live colorfully shirt and I love pairing graphic tees with skirts so I thought this one would be fun...(side note: Kate Spade has the best graphic tee’s) I very often will wear boots in the summer and my pink Christian Louboutin’s worked really well with this outfit also. Just adorable… I loved wearing it so much I didn’t want to take it off. To the new friends I met yesterday…I hope you enjoy my closet and thank you for following along!!
A perfectly aligned plaid covers this soft sweatshirt style crewneck. The matching skirt is the exact same except detailed with a flounce hem. Matching two-piece sets have been popping up everywhere, and I must admit I am a fan. Whether a skirt and top combo as seen here or shorts and a crop top for spring and summer this look is seriously stylish, not to mention could it be any easier?! All you need to do is add shoes and accessories and after the fact, you are left with two great pieces you can mix and match throughout your wardrobe.
Sweater: J.Crew/ Coatigan: The Loft/ Boots: Sergio Rossi /Infinity Scarf: Skull Cashmere
This infinity scarf makes this outfit look effortlessly cool. It alters this look from girly, to edgy and sophisticated with its printed black skulls on top of gray cashmere. I love the way gray and black look together...so monochromatic..but today I added a touch of pink to take a little of the 'edge' off. The sweater fits slouchy and oversized which makes it great for skinny jeans. It is one of those sweaters you will reach for over and over again.
Sweater: J.Crew/Pants: J.Crew/ Boots: Sergio Rossi/ Clutch: YSL
Showing my stripes in this tee-shirt alternative sweater. This is a great top either to wear by itself or to use as a layering piece. Being that the sleeves are a little longer and the fabric is hefty and warm, I have chosen to wear it by itself today with a pair of leggings and over-the-knee boots. This outfit can be worn straight through the day and into the evening.
Cardigan: Mason by Michelle Mason /Boots: Sergio Rossi/ Necklace: Chan Luu
Thanks to everyone for being so patient while I was going through my grandfathers illness. I am very happy to say he has pulled through and is finally back home. Being back to work is great even though it is absolutely freezing outside. Today I am wearing my leather leggings with a simple white tee. I wanted to showcase my new Chan Luu necklace that I sooo love. The black tassel against the white makes it show up nicely. I wanted to wear this heavy duster by Mason but it was just a little to cold so, I put on a light weight black day coat underneath it and found it gave my outfit another dimension. And how about these Serigo Rossi over-the-knee boots?! I am OBSESSED. Mixed with my black beanie, the outfit gains a more hipster edge.

This classic houndstooth blazer is sharp and sleek and finished off with a beaded collar. Layered underneath the sweater is a printed scarf adapted from mens ties for a statement…making this outfit very menswear-chic. For a dressier look, I wore these black coated jeans.

There is something about flared skirts that take me back to my childhood…they are fun, flirty and very feminine. This burgundy printed skirt from H&M sits perfectly at the waist and the black piping seems to give it a layered look. Pairing with this Á La Mode pullover lends to the season's sweatshirt trend plus, topping the look off with this quilted coat makes for a great daytime outfit with a fresh appearance. When it comes to my personal style, I have never considered myself to have one in particular. When picking out my clothing, my style can vary depending on a number of factors including my mood or what I am willing to try…but that is the fun part about fashion. You never have to be the same and can experiment. One day I may feel all pink and girly girl, and the next day I may feel like being in all black and very edgy. Today is clearly girly and fun outfit with the flare, yet a little laid back paired with a sweatshirt…the best of both worlds!
