Hey all. I’ve been MIA for the past couple of weeks and totally have been lagging on my blog posts. Sorry about that. Anyway, this week I didn’t really have a focus… I just went out on the town and snapped what I saw. Hope you all enjoy the product of my lazy three-day weekend.

Keeping warm while staying stylish is a difficult task. This chick kept it simple with black skinny jeans, a pair of great boots, and a warm yet super cool Carhartt jacket (I want one!).

I love how this gal can so subtly, yet affectively, display her style. With her cardigan, leather loafers, and adorable glasses, she has a sort of preppy feel, which she counteracts with her jeans and relaxed tee.

I caught this guy mid-shift. His look seem so effortless and simple. If you look closely, he has tons of accessories: a hat, earring, a nose ring, and glasses. Usually that seems like wayyyy too much, but the sizing and placement, whether it was intentional or not, makes them all work really well. I also like the way his shirt looks; rolled up and relaxed, yet it's totally cool and geometric.

Usually that seems like way too much, but the sizing and placement, whether it was intentional or not, makes them all work really well together. I also like the way his shirt looks– rolled up and a bit messy, but still interesting.

 

As I'm sure most of you know, Mad for Plaid was this weekend!!! I was on a team with Mary Campbell and Emma Fernandez, we had such a great time sewing, glueing, crying, etc. throughout this past week in preparation for the show. Our competition was SO AMAZING and I can honestly say that I am so proud of every single contestant, whether I knew them or not. Congrats to everyone who was in the show. My team went with a grey two piece and a tailored jacket. We wanted to make something classy but cool, and I think it turned out pretty well. Shoutout to Emma for being so freaking gorgeous.
