I was pretty excited about the snow that we got this weekend, despite how incredibly cold it’s been. Snow makes me feel giddy like a kid and all I want to do is throw my own “snow day”, which is exactly what I did! I made a big breakfast and headed out to do some shopping and exploring. One of my favorite things about this weather is watching to see how creative people are when it comes to layering. For me this typically means throwing on a tee, then a sweater, adding a lighter jacket that will fit under my heavy coats that way I can adjust the layers as needed—it’s all about planning the right amount to get you through the day.

I spent the past weekend indulging in Shake Shake and exploring the LES with my fiance. Before going out on our all day trek, I had to put on my favorite socks ever. These pairs from Soxxy have an awesome grip that prevents them from slipping which is a necessity for all day adventures around the city. Our favorite find from exploring, was South Street Seaport. Sandy reeked havoc on this little area, leaving most of the surrounding businesses in shambles.However, there are still a few places who are leading the route of recovery and have re-opened with optimism. I love this area because it’s such a an odd juxtaposition of contrasting sceneries–pirate-like ships mixed with huge skyscrapers. That’s exactly what I love about this city, it’s a beautiful mixture of everything.

I’m finally back in the city after spending the holidays back home, and boy do I feel refreshed. Not only is it an entirely new year, but I have so many things to look forward to in 2013…including my W-E-D-D-I-N-G. My fiancé and I have finally set a date and we couldn’t be more excited to start our life together as husband & wife {pinch me}.
With the new year, I’m also feeling motivated. And when I’m motivated, I feel like I can conquer the world. And when I do, you can usually notice that my shoes tend to match my mood. These combat boots from Pink & Pepper, are such a great way to show my can-do attitude and how I’m ready for anything that comes my way. Maybe I’m being overly optimistic, but I believe 2013 is going to be my favorite year yet.
This vintage flannel skirt is a staple of mine that I like to pull out once the temperatures start dropping. There’s nothing like a little flannel to make you feel like a little rebellious school girl.

Anytime I can throw on a tee shirt with Clint Eastwood on it, you know it’s going to be a good day. I stole this one right out of my fiancé’s closet and I’m reluctant to give it back. Pairing it with a pleated skirt is my idea of an easy and on the go look. I threw in these boots for an added quirkiness that I love. They’re like tuxedos for my feet, because at times they want to formal but they’re also ready to party at a moments notice!
