Winter Warmth

F21 black leather shorts, oscar dela renta vintage sweater, vintage fur, 
chinese laundry over the knee boots, h&m hat & scarf.



Feeling pretty badass for sporting leather shorts in 20 degree weather. This fur is 
unbelievably warm, so I guess it's all proportionate. I'm gearing up for the holidays, and loads of travel. Wishing everyone a glorious holiday season. Can't wait to see what everyone is wearing for NYE.

Red Velvet

H&M black fur, f21 black leather shorts, deena and ozzy booties, shimmer tights, vintage bag, f21 blouse


Found this amazing spot downtown,  cute graffiti on the door.  I wish we took better detailed shots of the shoulder. They're so perfectly 90's. Forever did me right this week, still wish it was warmer here, but at least no snow.

I've been featured on http://fashionmylegs.blogspot.com! Check out my interview here!
 Thanks again to Oringina for thinking of me, and to my followers and readers!   

NYE In Motion

Initially I mentioned San Fran or NOLA for my yearly holiday get away, but due to some family issues I'll be spending NYE in NYC, and frankly I couldn't be more thrilled. Even though I've frequented the city since the tender age of three, there's hundreds of things I've yet to explore. This year the beau and I are doing it up at 60 Thompson Hotel in Soho (Just a few shots of the lofts & Thom bar below). Last years resolution was to spend NYE in a different W every new year, but we went against the W Union Square in favor of this boutique hotel.  I'm super excited for what the 6 day jaunt will bring. MOMA's is at the top of my itinerary with the Tim Burton exhibition going on, topshop, and visiting my best friend in Williamsburg. Can't wait!

Lovely Lulee


My dear friend Lulu celebrated her birthday last night with a charming dinner party (thanks to Nan & Lar for the tasty treats, and open bar).  It was filled with laughter, singing, crowns, and jokes. I'm so lucky to have such a wonderful set of friends. Check out her blog here: http://threecheersforyolandavega.blogspot.com/

It's been a wild weekend with three holiday parties. I'm looking forward to a good night rest, and plenty of comfort foods.  This time of year is defiantly the most fun, but stressful. Between all of the holiday parties, visiting family, and planning a New Years trip (hopefully to either New Orleans, or San Fran) I'm feel a bit overwhelmed, but happy to be busy. I'm hoping to shoot some downtown outfits post this week, weather providing.  Hope everyone had a lovely weekend, and again HAPPY BIRTHDAY LULEE!

Just when I was considering a lighter do, I come across this. I can't decide if I want to go lighter more golden throughout or allow father winter to continue the darkening process. Help!

Quick Holiday

Forever 21 skirt, vintage lace top, UO booties. 

My boyfriend and I took a quick trip to Toronto this weekend. I was hopping to resolve my Christmas shopping dilemma. Instead I returned home with 1 very large bag of H&M goodies for myself. Whoops. Any gift suggestions for Mom?

Winter White

Leggings & socks from Target, White modified H&M dress (Originally it was a summer dress, but I cut it & layered it), 
 F21 sweater,  H&M scarf, UO booties.

Yesterday was Dec 1st and we received our first snow in Buffalo. Today it's back in the upper 40's so I really can't complain, other than our grey atmosphere. I figure I should get in as many roof shots as I can before its too slippery too sneak up there. This is such a cozy, yet comfortable outfit. 
It's practically sleep where, but still looks pulled together. 
I'm loving the look of comfy socks layered over tights (or legging) with a boot. It helps fight the chill,
 and still manages to look adorable.

US vs. VS

Once a year woman in American shield their eyes, and erase the Tivo evidence of "The Victoria Secret Fashion Show".  No matter how secure you are with your body, or your boyfriend- it's hard to feel 100% sexy/ comfortable sitting in your PJ's eating a bowl of popcorn while 7 foot glamazons work the runway in barely there lingerie. With such faces like Heidi "The Body", Marissa Miller, Miranda Kerr (and notably the first asian woman to ever walk the VS runway (http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/11/25/victorias.secret.model/index.html) "regular" girls like us don't stand a chance. Now don't get me wrong, I'd rather be donning the latest Balenciaga number, over some booty shorts with feathers attached. But I might be nervously shifting in my chair with each impending nipple slip.
Or on second review of this picture, maybe I don't have anything to worry about....

A lovely print I found by Alison Grant.  A bit Gregory Crewdson mixed with Dan Flavin's light sculptures, thought I'd share.

Tis the Season for Sparkle

F21 black skinnies, f21 blouse, UO booties, f21 jewelry

Getting an early jump on the holidays this season, well at least in terms of adding glitz.
 I picked out this years ornaments: twinkle lights, silver & white snowflakes, snow owls, and silver bells. Now I just have to find the perfect tree.

A House Cooling

My best friends Brandon & Patrick decided to throw a "house cooling" party this weekend. They've lived in this great apartment for several years, but recently decided to move into a new building on the west side. We've had our fair share of laughs, cries, and dance extravaganzas here, so it was only fitting they move on with one 
final blowout! My legs are still stinging from 5am dance routines. We'll all miss that apartment.
