Cool and Crisp

(Vintage coat and plaid shirt, Urban sweater, Zara leather pants, Bally bag, Banana Republic shoes)

These next 2 weeks are going to be intense! Final exams as well as shoots are coming up! Juggling both has kept me so busy. I find myself spending every spare minute in the library or at my desk, getting all of my last minute work done. I am so ready for the holiday fun to start! My family and I are already planning our holiday vacation and I can hardly wait! We're thinking a snowy getaway! It'll be freezing, but absolutely beautiful.

Here I am wearing a very simple, casual outfit that is perfect for this time of year. It is so chilly in the mornings that I simply layer a plaid button-up blouse under a cable knit sweater along with a great pair of skinny pants. I opted for leather today. They are extra thick n cozy! Before leaving the house, I make sure to grab this classic black coat. It's vintage, made of 100% Italian wool, and is a great layering piece to keep me warm throughout the day. It's so chic and has the ability to make any outfit I have on look more pulled together.

Gaah, I want it to be holiday break already!! Tons of work to do till then. I'll keep you posted chickadees!

Btw, the winner to my $50 Threadsence giveaway is the lovely Kathleen of the blog Inspirafashion, coming from Berkeley, CA! Congrats girl! Happy shopping!!

Just Piled On

(Thrifted Sweater, H&M Dress & Faux Fur Collar, Vintage Belt, Anarchy Street Armor Ring, YSL Ring, Steve Madden Shoes)

I had this dress on all day at home then my feet got cold so I put on my OTK socks on. Before I realized, I had this sweater over my dress and a leopard jacket all while sitting on my chair working on my finals.

It was finally time to go outside to grab coffee and Wesley Mason told me I looked like I killed three different animals. hahaha Wish I took these pictures with the leopard coat on so I can show you guys how ridiculously fabulous I looked (apparently this is just my opinion. my bf didn't think so.)

A Holiday Look I Love

Here are a few images of me for Calista Holiday 2010. Shot in New York over the summer and photographed by Erika Hokanson. This shoot has inspired me to sport silk button-ups, velvet pants, and lace frocks this holiday season. A little fur thrown in and I'm set! As for makeup, I love what the makeup artist did. A smoky eye with just a little gold shimmer in the inner corners, and of course a huge red pout. Definitely a fierce holiday look that is bound to make a statement. Kinda releases my inner rockstar ya know? Happy holidays tooo youuuuuuuuu my pretties!

See behind the scenes images from this shoot in a previous post HERE!

For the Moody

I'm currently tucked under my covers, laptop on lap, browsing through the giant load of photos packed into an folder that desperately needs to be saved on a disc or something before my computer explodes. Here are my picks for the day. I cannot get enough of these images. A mix of moody, complicated, real, beautiful, raw photos. Feast your eyes on this honeybunches!

Daria's home. Pamela's locks. Serge and Jane. Lara Stone. Biker babe. Sparkles. Freedom. Jane Goodall. Simplicity at it's best. Top hats. A barefaced Dree. The not so perfect perfect side braid.

Granny Lengths

(Grandma's cable knit cardigan that my mom stole from her closet which I stole later from my mom's closet, H&M Faux Fur Collar, Thrifted skirt from Goodwill in Kentucky, Dad's Louis Vuitton Belt, Steve Madden Boots)

What I wore on Thanksgiving day: a big skirt and an adjustable belt. The objective of this outfit was so that I had enough breathing room for my food intake on Thanksgiving dinner.

It sure worked well.

Heavy Knit

(Zara sweater, Vintage scarf, Rich & Skinny jeans)

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone got to spend the day with their loved ones and eat lots of good food! This year has been so crazy and amazing. So many wonderful things have happened that I never thought I'd be given the opportunity to do. I have so much to be thankful for. I want to give a special thanks to all of my readers. You guys are the best, and have really encouraged me to continue this blog. It makes me really enjoy doing it, so thank you!

I actually didn't end up feeling too well on Thanksgiving, got some kinda bug in my tummy! I have nooo idea what it was! But after having some tea, I felt so much better. The weather is still freezing and the wind just makes the cold that much more intense. I quickly stepped outside to take a few snapshots of my look. Nothing beats a heavy wool knit and a chunky vintage scarf at the moment. I love dark browns and blues together. And with this weather, I find myself living in skinny jeans! The thought of throwing on a minidress this holiday season brings chills up and down my spine. This pair from Rich & Skinny are an incredible "jegging" style with side ankle zips. Perfect for curling up on the couch watching movies! Just a really simple and casual look for a holiday weekend with my family. This week I saw "Love and other Drugs" and it was amazing! Jake Gyllenhaal, I LOVE YOU. I'm a sucker for those puppy dog eyes!

Oh and here I am in Aneka Yess! magazine of Indonesia! Thanks for the feature! xoxo


Have a fantastic rest of your week! Stay warm!

What is your workspace like?

I've been glued to my chair and desk these past few days working on my final and stuff for work and have been wishing for a better utilized workspace. Although I have a pretty big desk, almost every inch of my desk is covered with blue prints, magazines, photos, books, computer supplies and more.

What's your workspace like?

Are you surrounded by books? Do you have an entire wall full of inspirational pictures?

Do you lay everything out on a desk or are you more of a minimalist?
