Leather Goods

Top: Zara | Jeans: Zara | Booties: H&M 

Clutch: Karmaloop | Necklace: Vintage 

Leather is absolutely one of my favorite fabrics. 

It can add that perfect edge and sophistication to my outfits.

Plus, since it's so versatile, it's easy to dress pieces up or down. 

This leather peplum top is definitely a favorite in my closet and I jump at any chance I get to wear it out.

Wardrobe Wishlist: Winter Edition

Winter is in full swing, something Mother Nature won't let us easily forget. While I am fonder of above freezing temps, I do enjoy the challenge the winter chill brings with keeping up my style while wearing weather sensible clothing. I also love scouting out inspiration for pieces I would happily welcome into my eternally evolving wardrobe. 

1. Pale Blue Statement Coat (Zara)

2. Strappy Pumps (L.A.M.B.)

3. Leather Pencil Skirt (Miss Selfridge)

4. Black Midi Dress (TopShop)

5. Oversized Statement Clutch (ELA)

6. Faux Fur Scarf

I got the chance to spend 5 days in Paris a few weeks back and 

one thing I absolutely loved about the city (the list is endless honestly) was the street art everywhere.

So I figured, "Why not snap some outfit pics in front of some?"

This was my travel outfit for the first day and was super comfortable but still made me feel chic enough for Parisian streets.

A lot of the pieces came from H&M, which I don't usually don't frequent often in the states but the selection in UK stores is so much more appealing to me here than back in the states.

À bientôt! 

(See You Soon!)

Taking It Easy

Booties: H&M (featured in my fall finds!) | Sunglasses: Old Spittafields Market

I'm back! It's been way longer than anticipated for me to make another post. 

Finals and traveling (Paris to be exact ^_^) got me a tad sidetracked but I'm refocused and ready to go. 

I wore this outfit when my friend and I randomly decided to go exploring around London. 

It was a wonderful day, the weather was perfect and we made some awesome discoveries. 

Personal note: One thing you should know about me is that I absolutely love lions. They're quiet yet so powerful.

When I came across this bad boy at Camden Market I just had to get a picture. 

Until next time!
