Bring on the romance.

While a large amount of people are probably dreading Valentine's Day, which is only two weeks away, I cannot help but to be inspired by all of the colors the holiday brings! The romantic hues of red and pink are present in my frequently viewed online shopping spots. With the freezing weather here this past week, a little color goes a long way. Check out my favorite affordable Valentine's Day inspired looks:

Jeffrey Campbell Heels

Leopard Dress

Leopard Tunic

Red Studded Handbag

...And my personal favorite- this killer dress!

What are your favorite V-day inspired looks?

The bitch is back.

This shirt speaks to me. It's almost as good as, "Broke is the new black."

"Hey, I put my new shoes on and suddenly everything's right."

What's a better way to ring in 2010 than with a new pair of shoes? Am I right? My boyfriend and I exchanged some late xmas gifts and I couldn't be more thrilled with his pick...floral oxfords from Urban Outfitters. I can't rock them quite yet; the mushy snow would not go over well, but on the first day of spring, they're all mine! How cute are these going to be with jean short cutoffs?

 

Look of the Week: Can't get any Brighter.

This past weekend I spent a night visiting a friend at Amherst College, conveniently located just miles from not only an adorable, funky town, but an Urban Outfitters as well. I think I'll be visiting her more frequently after this little find...I'm working on a budget, so after sifting through the overpriced silk tanks, I came across a true gem on the sales rack: a turquoise fitted boyfriend blazer with cuffed sleeve detail. In Love. Rocked this bad boy today with a black tank, skinny jeans, and black and white gingham flats. It'll be great for the holiday season coming up with a skirt and some heels! Now I've really gotta plan an 80's party...take a look!

 

Geek Chic.

Is October too early to start a Christmas list? I hope not...because I can't get over these shoes from Urban Outfitters, they're definitely at the top of the list! I've been seeing this style shoe everywhere; including in The City where Olivia Palermo rocked them while trekking through Chinatown, Birken bag in hand; I was sold already! Take a look: 

 

Okay, I might get confused for a professional bowler, or maybe even the captain of the mathletes, but I think these geek chic shoes are quirky and fun...will they be dawning your holiday list this year?
