n o t h i n g



Hello again! I wanted to share this look I had the other day since wearing pants is a rare occasion for me. From the second I got out of bed shivering, I knew it was gonna be a chilly day and I simply was not in the mood to persevere through the cold in sheer tights. I found these pants when I was looking through the sale rack after my shift one day. I was compelled to buy them since there was only one pair and they were in my size! They're super funky and comfortable and I think they were a great addition to my wardrobe. 


I paired them with my Lazy Oaf T-shirt which I found at American Two Shot, my absolute favorite store that I've found so far in NYC! It's the first store that I've been to that sells Lazy Oaf stuff (Urban Outfitters used to back in the day, but not anymore) so I go bananas every time I have the time to stop by. The layout of the store is the cutest..for those of you that haven't been there, you should check it out! It's located on Grand Street in Soho. When you first walk in, there's a coffee bar where you can get hot or iced coffee in a mason jar along with a sweet treat. In the back they have racks and piles of Lazy Oaf on Lazy Oaf and other amazing designers such as Hannah Metz.  She's a creative genius and I admire her aesthetic.




Now for my favorite part of any outfit...shoes and socks! I'm obsessed with putting together socks and shoes combinations that compliment the entire look. I feel like they can either make or break an outfit. For this look, I slipped on my sheer heart socks from Forever 21 and my chunky heel platforms that I found at Target! (Still in shock I found these there...) The outfit needed a statement shoe since it's fairly simple. Hope you guys like it! XOXO

Easter Outing

Dumbo, Brooklyn 



Hi everyone! I'm coming back to blogger after a long hiatus. I've been dying to start posting again but going to school full time and working a retail job tends to leave me with little energy to take photos. Buuuut I'm really going to try and post whenever I can! 
This weekend, my friend and I ventured out to Brooklyn to visit the cute little town of Dumbo. We love picking random places to go and finding things to do as we walk around. This trip turned out to be very successful, as we found a carousel that was only $2 per ride, tons of cute thrift stores, and a tasty Thai restaurant. 





Major credit to Kyleen for these photos since she nearly fell off her horse trying to take photos of me…I'm sorry! I've literally been trying to take carousel photos for years but they always come out blurry since nobody wants to actually get on the carousel so they just stand along the outside edge and try to take a photo every time I come around. I'm so in love with how these turned out and also very happy that I have a friend who loves carousels as much I do.


I usually have my Easter outfit planned out months in advance since I absolutely LOVE Easter and the excuse to wear every pastel color at once (even though I do that anyway). This year, I didn't have as much time to plan out an outfit so I threw something together a few days before when Kyleen and I made plans to visit Dumbo. I'm wearing a vintage bedroom jacket from the 1950's that I scored from Love Saves The Day (my favorite vintage store from back home). The overalls are my most recent purchase, made by Mod Dolly. They're super comfortable, well-made, and really adorable. If you haven't heard the hype about Mod Dolly, everything is hand-made and their designs are to die for! They're currently doing a sample sale on Depop and I just bought a matching Gingham set…go check it out!




That's about it for the carousel. Here are some more photos we took before we ate the best Thai food, like ever. 



I was freezing my butt off in these photos and am probably going to catch a cold.. but it's totally fine because it was for a good cause! My blog is very important to me even though I abandoned it for way too long. If you're wondering what lipstick I'm wearing, it's the new Perlees by Limecrime. I'm in love! The actual color is a little more purple and less pink that it appeared online but I'm not mad. I really like the purplish-pink color. Even better- it looks metallic and has sparkles in it :) 


That's all folks! You can expect to see another post in a few days. 
XOXO
