Eyelet Trim Sweater Tank
I love sweater tanks. They are the perfect transition pieces. Sleeveless for those warm days, but thicker since we’re not at the height of summer. Sweater tanks normally are more conservative too so if you can wear sleeveless tops to work they’re a great option! Early in the summer I was at LOFT and I saw the cutest white sweater tank with eyelet trim. And you know I love eyelet. But it was full price and I didn’t have my LOFT card on me. Hazards of switching to a smaller bag when I go out sometimes. I suppose I could’ve just had the cashier look up my account, but I…

Community Spirit to Help the Environment
I’m going to preface this post by saying I totally believe that climate change is real and that we need to do more to save the planet. With that being said, I could do a lot more on my part to help facilitate change. Glasdon has thought of a list of ways that people can get in the community spirit and effectively help the environment. It’s a fact that we are using up our resources, polluting, overfishing, and more. It’s our responsibility as inhabitants on this earth to work together to find sustainable ways of living. Glasdon believes: “Social responsibility does not fall on the shoulders of just one, or few…

Modilize Launch Party
Happy Wednesday! This week has been so busy that it feels much later in the week than Wednesday, but at least we’re one day closer to the weekend. So last Saturday during New York Fashion Week (NYFW) I went in to the city for the Modilize Launch Party. Modilize is a soon to be released app for online shopping that is going to streamline the shopping experience for women. I’m excited for it to officially launch! In the meantime though, I had a great time at their NYFW launch party. I arrived in the city about an hour before the event started, so I walked around the neighborhood a little and…

White Castle – Impossible Slider
I’ve recently gotten in to veggie burgers. My favorites to make at home so far have been black bean burgers. They are a great weeknight meal because they’re so quick to make and so tasty as well. Not to mention healthy! So when White Castle reached out to me and asked if I’d like to try out their new plant-based burgers I was all for it. White Castle recently launched the Impossible Slider. Impossible Burgers make the patties and since White Castle is known for their sliders it has become the Impossible Slider there. It’s made to look and smell like beef, but is all plant based. White Castle was also…

Emmy 2018 Red Carpet
Did you catch the Emmy’s last night? I watched most of it – I had it on in the background as I got some work done. Did you see the proposal during one of the award acceptances? So sweet! I’ve rounded up a few of the looks I loved from last night. There are probably a few great looks that I didn’t see. I saw Gina Rodriguez present and I loved her blue gown but I could’t find a photo of her online last night! So here are the photos of outfits I did see on TV or online and loved (in no particular order) There wasn’t anything particularly special…

Sephora VIB Haul
I was originally planning a different post for today, but it’s not quite ready to publish – I’m still waiting for a few photos to complete the post. In the meantime I’m sharing a haul. The big Sephora sale for VIB Rouge, VIB, and Beauty Insiders was a few weeks ago so I’d thought I’d show you my little haul. I wasn’t really in the need for anything major so my haul was pretty small, but I wanted to take advantage of the discount since Sephora only has these sales maybe two times a year. I have one (maybe 2) item that I’ve used before and 3 that are new.…

New Home Tips
If you’ve been following my blog for a while then you know I recently became a homeowner. I’m loving my place but there are definitely a few things that I want to change and there are also a few things that I wish the former owners had told me. It’s a bit annoying, but there’s nothing I can do about it now except take care of what needs taking care of. However, if you are renting instead of buying then you have a lot more options than I do in terms of holding others accountable for things that need to get done in your place. For me as a townhouse…

Star Wars Pancakes
I need to preface this post by saying the pancakes did not turn out too hot. In the end, they looked okay, but not great. About a month ago when I was having a browse on the Williams Sonoma website, I saw they had Star Wars pancake molds. They looked so fun and who wouldn’t want to eat a pancake in the shape of Yoda or a storm trooper? So I bought the kid and it came with a storm trooper, yoda, R2D2, and Darth Vader. I used my trusty Aunt Jemima pancake mix and started making them. So like I said they didn’t end up that great looking so…

Cobalt Blue Baby Doll Tank
Last year I shared a dark floral version of this tank top and I’m finally getting around to sharing the cobalt blue version. This color is so pretty and I love the pop of color it brings to this otherwise all black look. I wore it with a lace black bodysuit underneath since it’s pretty low-cut, black leggings, and a black open cardigan because it was a little cool and rainy out. Lastly, I wore a necklace I just won last weekend at the Modilize event I went to which I mentioned in yesterday’s post. It’s the Tribe Necklace and looks like a little tent. It’s so cute and dainty! So…

Tiger Lily Jumpsuit
Last Saturday I went in to the city for a New York Fashion Week launch party for an upcoming fashion app. I’m going to write all about that in a few days, but today I’m sharing what I wore! Since it was New York Fashion Week, I wanted to look fashionable of course! My pre-order of this tiger lily jumpsuit from Vici came just in time. The jumpsuit has a pretty floral design all over – very fall like! It’s satiny feeling and has leg slits and ties at the ankles. So comfortable and stylish! I had to pin the top closed as it opens all the way. Since the…
