On My Radar

Happy Friday everyone! This week was a long one, and I am so happy that it is over. I am off to Boston (again) to celebrate my brother and sister-in-law for a sure to be amazing baby shower. I am very excited to see most of my family and to catch up with everyone. Don't forget to follow me on instagram to tag along with me for the weekend!

I have been lusting over several different fall items. At the top of my list are definitely booties. I want boots that I can wear to work (for a more casual day), that I can wear for a night out on the town, and for casual wear during the day. Is that so much to ask? Check out above the items I am currently craving for my closet.

Do you have any black booties that you have your eye on? I'd love to hear, so please share below!

Have a great weekend everyone!

My Home Office

I know I teased you guys a few weeks back via instagram with a snapshot of my home office, but I wanted to wait until I had my brand new camera to take some nice snapshots of my work in progress. I think that it is important to have an area of inspiration and motivation, which is why I decided to re-arrange my room and put a desk in!

Decorating it was the fun part. With my new laptop, decor from Design Darling, Dipytique, and more, I put together this inspiration. I still have a bit of work left, but I wanted to share this with you all. Below you will see where I feel motivated whilst at home. Hope that you enjoy!

PS - Do you have a home office/desk space? What do you use to decorate it? Please feel free to leave any tips or suggestions for my office space!

Brands I'm Loving: Lilly Pulitzer

When I was in college, every girl at the football tailgate had to have a Lilly Pulitzer dress. It didn't matter how it fit, as long as it had the signature Lilly print. Now that I am in my mid-twenties, I felt a little silly sometimes wearing the cutesy prints of Lilly, so I shied away {not knowing what other options they had}.

In the Pink {Lilly's signature stores} was always a store I loved every since my parents moved to Cape Cod. Their Falmouth and Nantucket stores are my absolute favorite. This year I have been seriously impressed with how much both the stores, and Lilly in general, has upped their game! I recently scored this dress and this dress on major sale. The fits could not be more flattering, and the comfort level is an added bonus! Now, looking at the fall collection, I am even more impressed by how sophisticated, timeless, and versatile the pieces are. Check out below some of the items that I crushing over for fall.

 

 

Do you shop at Lilly Pulitzer? What are some of your favorite pieces of theirs for fall? Let me know in the comments section below!

NYFW: Birchboxblogger Event

At this point if you are here in NYC enjoying NYFW, or if you are following from a distance, you may be tired of all the posts you have seen so I will keep this light and fun! While I have been traveling like a crazy person for the past two weeks - explaining my lack of posts (sorry guys!) - I have had the chance to part take in a few events.

Last night, my lovely friend Lauren and I attended the Birchboxbloggers event in Chelsea Market. Sometimes these events fail to impress, but let me tell you, this was so fun and above my expectations. Instantly upon arriving, we were greeted at the door with help yourself candy options that were as cute as can be. After getting some sweet treats, we moved on through free manicures, hair and make-up. To make things even better, while waiting to fill our very own DIY Birchbox - we were handed glasses of champagne. What else could a girl ask for? I snapped some pictures of the event and my amazing Birchbox. It was a night to remember. Thanks so much for such a great event Birchbox!

Amazing products from: Twistband, Benefit, drybar, Stilla, Smashbox and Marcelle



Greeting us on the street!

So many amazing samples, hard to choose which ones!

Make-Up & Hair Stations!

My amazing products thanks to Birchbox

 

PS - The on-line fashion shows for Tory Burch and Rebecca Minkoff were also so great to be a part of. Make sure to follow me on instagram and twitter for all the up to minute details!

Amazing Labor Day Weekend Sales

One of my readers recently requested a post on affordable Labor Day dresses. The problem with Labor Day is, that it comes at a time where it begins to feel like fall, while still being summer. This makes purchasing a new dress difficult because you want to make sure the dress you are getting is versatile. Therefore, I decided to put together a list of amazing sales that are taking place at some of my favorite stores and include some of the transitional items that I am loving for the end of the summer straight into fall.  Check out some of the items I am loving above (for Labor Day dresses) and the awesome sales taking place this weekend! Have a great long weekend everyone.

C.Wonder is having 25% of all full priced items with the code "LABORDAY". I am loving these amazing leggings, this pair of leopard heals and this top.

J.Crew is having 30% off sale items with the code "HELLO30" and free shipping with orders over $100! Loving this top, this top, this dress for work, this dress for work and a night out on the town, this dress, and this dress I already own (but in navy).

Tuckernuck extra 20% off sale items with code: "FACEBOOKEXCLUSIVE20". Loving this top.

Antropologie is having 25% house & home items.

Joie is having an additional 20% off sale items with the code "LABORDAY13". I have been obsessed with this dress all summer.

J.Crew Factory is having a sale for 40-50% off all items. Love this sweater, this peplum jacket, this adorable dress, this dress, and this skirt for fall.

What sales are you most excited about this weekend?

Hunter x Rag&Bone Collaboration

Who doesn't love Hunter boots? I have a classic black pair that I have worn through snowstorms, monsoons, and mud pits {thank you Governor's Ball}. While I love the classic look, I died a little when I saw the collaboration Hunter was having with Rag&Bone. How amazing are these?

These are available here for pre-order for $295. A little pricey, but worth the investment. What do you think of this awesome collaboration? Are there any other boots you are lusting over for fall? Let me know in the comments section below!

Warby Parker & Loren Hope

As I am sure you have seen on other blogs and pinterest, the new Loren Hope look book is everything. What struck me the most was the perfect styling of the jewelry, clothes and accessories. Being as I am a big glasses person (seen here and here), I had my eyes on the Warby Parker glasses featured above. I loved the combination of the tortoise and the black! Warby Parker is known for their amazing customer service and they proved better than ever when I reached out to them and asked them what these glasses were.

Turns out, these glasses are the Winston in Walnut Tortoise with Black Temples, however they are retired. After speaking to Karen, from Warby Parker, she assured me she would look as hard as she could for them. A few days later, in my inbox was an amazing e-mail from Karen letting me know she had located a pair and gave me her direct number to reach her in order to secure a pair. Thank you Karen and the Warby Parker team!

 

Have you seen the Loren Hope look book? Do you own glasses from Warby Parker? If not, I think you should do both :)

Happy Friday!

Affordable Work Wear

 

 

Some people hate it, but I personally love dressing for work. That feeling of being a young business professional in New York City and dressing the part is exciting to me. While I obviously have a love for J.Crew, I have an equal appreciation for J.Crew Factory (especially their prices!). While looking for some new work dresses for the fall, I came across a plethora of amazing dresses at amazing prices at J.Crew Factory. Right now they are having a huge sale (up to 40% off). Check out above some of my favorites!

What are some dresses you are excited to get for fall?

Brands I Love: Camilyn Beth

Have I been living under a rock? Featured yesterday on Atlantic Pacific (who credits that she heard about this brand through WHIT & Whimsy), I fell in love instantly with the amazing women's wear brand Camilyn Beth. I feel like I just played a game of telephone tag and I am the last one to know about his amazing line. Her dresses are SPOT on. Scallop details, sequins, color choices, what else could be better? Oh, and did I mention that they are made to order dresses! Now the hard part is deciding which one to get!

Which one is your favorite? Have you heard of Camilyn Beth before?

Perfect Blog Cards & Card Holder

Clare Vivier

Tiny Prints

For those of you who follow me on twitter or instagram know, I had been looking for the perfect business card publisher. I asked around to a few bloggers (thanks Carly!) and did my own research. This is where I found Tiny Prints. I don't know if it is the cute elephant that caught my eye or the amazing customer service, but they truly helped me design the perfect business card.

What is a good business card without the perfect place to put it though, right? That is where Clare Vivier came into play. I love her clutches and I absolutely love this mini version I purchased to hold my business cards.

Do you have blog business cards? What do you use to hold your cards?

Fashion Trend: Baseball Caps



Click HERE to view these hats and more

Whether it be seeing this trend on the NYC streets or reading it on fashion blogs, I am seeing baseball caps everywhere. These aren't your normal team sport oriented baseball caps either (while I still love those); these are made for the fashion forward girl who may want to edge up an outfit or simply cover a bad hair day. I think a hat can be a perfect addition to an outfit. J.Crew recently came out with a few perfect baseball caps for fall that I am dying over. Which one is your favorite? Let me know in the comments section below!

C.Wonder SoHo

As I mentioned on my instagram and twitter, last Friday my friend and I hit up the C.Wonder store in SoHo to get a free tote bag with purchase! I have never been to this particular C.Wonder store, but let me tell you, it was not only decorated beautifully, but the store had SO much selection. My friend ended up scoring some deals from the 50% already marked down items, and I purchased this cute ring set seen below (similiar found here). Overall, we walked away with some cute gear and a free NYC C.Wonder tote which was an added bonus! Check out some pictures from the event below.

Perfect Summer {Birthday} Dresses

Another year, another birthday! I somehow am more depressed by the age of 26 than I was by 25. I feel old! This year I purchased some fun dresses to brighten up the mood. I spent more of my week on Cape Cod with family and friends celebrating with nice dinner and drinks. For the weekend following, I came back to NYC to celebrate with one of my best guy friends with a big birthday party with all my NYC friends. It was an absolute blast. Thanks to all of my friends and family that made it extra special.

Below are the items I wore throughout the birthday week. 

Kate Spade Saturday

ASOS

There may be a trend with the open back on these dresses! Hope you all are having a great week!
