Thankful for vintage Coach.

Happy belated Thanksgiving, hope everyone had a lovely holiday. I spent a week at home with my family in New York and loved it. I took a day trip to NYC with my sister; we went to Mood fabrics (where they film Project Runway), stocked up on some crafting goods at M&J Trim, and of course, did some shopping. I scored this $10 vintage Coach bag at home; I love how lady-like it looks:



Hope everyone got some good Black Friday deals...now let the Christmas countdown begin.

Teen Vogue does decor.

I'm not afraid to admit it; I'm 21 years old and I am still an avid Teen Vogue reader. So when I was browsing their blogs this morning I came across a JC Penney and Teen Vogue bedding collaboration and it's adorable. This is my favorite bedding from their line, and did I mention it's affordable too... What do you think?

The Real World.

As scary as it is for me to say, I graduate college in May. Every time I go shopping now, I can't help but start to think about transitioning my wardrobe from casual college duds to fancier, "Please give me a job" clothes. I purchased this black skirt on clearance for $10 at Gap and I instantly got excited about looking for a job and more importantly, the excuse to get dressed up everyday.



But for the time being, I think this skirt will suffice as part of my Thanksgiving day outfit.

Rabbit Rabbit.

Happy November!I have a habit of getting really excited and giddy when planning outfits for events and holidays. So as today marks the first of November and with Thanksgiving just a few weeks away, yes, I am starting to think about my outfit. I spent my lazy Sunday pulling some inspiration from Polyvore and this is the look I want to achieve but using what I already have in my closet...you like?



What will be your turkey day duds?

DIY- Boho Necklace

You can never go into a craft store and just get one thing. It's inevitable that you're going to pick something up and say, "This is really cool, what can I make with this?" And sometimes that pays off- like this necklace that I made for $1.50! I found these boho beads at Michael's on clearance while shopping for my Halloween costume materials. Luckily, I had black chain at home from New York Design Shop and in a matter of seconds I had a chic new necklace that cost almost nothing to make! You like?




Psst- Speaking of Halloween, is anyone else making their costume? I'm being Pebbles and my costume cost five bucks, can't wait to show some pictures! Happy craftin'

Time to get cozy.

Today was a beautiful New England fall day; the slight breeze and crisp air made me want to grab a sweater as cozy as this one! It's the perfect comfy piece to thrown on with some leather boots and a scarf. I think I'm in love.



Also, if you know me well, you already know that I take way too many naps and my bed is my favorite place in the world...so this sweater is right up my alley.

P.S.-- It fits my college gal budget, $42.99 from Mod Cloth.

Case of the Mondays.

It's a cold, gray, rainy Monday morning; the kind of day where you just want to lie in bed, not get dressed and be totally unproductive. I'm taking on this dreary Monday in style...throw on some leggings, your favorite pair of knee length boots, and a chunky cozy sweater and you're good to go. Here was my inspiration this morning as I got ready for the day ahead:
