Eeny, Meeny, Miny...

WhOa!!!!

These 4 beauties are style, color, and risk at their best! From the top, Christian Louboutin (LOVEing the neon color swing!), Christian Dior, CL again, and Stella McCartney (Dangerously chic wedges.) So many things I'm loving for the spring/ summer trends: nude, neons!, wedges, purple, + patent leather. Those are just a few of my favorite things...<3

It was the perfect day...

So today was pretty amazing...
I was on my way to a doctors/ dentist appointment =(. ----Luckily, today was opening day for the Yankees which = too much traffic!! This of course forced us to cancel both appointments =). We didn'twant to waste such a perfect day sitting inside! The sun was shining bright and the temperature was rising.... soo it only made sense to spend the day in the city =). It worked out well for the both of us. I had some things to take care of at school, and my Mom has been ranting and raving about this nail place right near campus that she swears by. I have to say I was quite impressed, my Mom knows how to pick 'em! (I guess that's where I get my fab. taste from...) We both enjoyed a nice relaxing manicure and I even decided to shy away from my dark black satin/ wicked phase. I went with a bright red called JELLY APPLE! It's more like a candy apple red but I felt like a new woman right after. (I love the effect a fresh mani has on me!) We did some shopping downtown near school and we came across a really cute boutique called "Purdy Girl". I knew it was gonna be good because right outside they had a rack marked 75% off with tons of cute maxi dresses for the summer in bright shades and super cute patterns. I of course fell in love as soon I set foot inside, it was kind of small but they had the most darling tops, dresses, bags, and accessories! We spent a good hour browsing the racks and trying on lots of big rings and pretty bangles. I got my first pair of aviators =) a bright blue spaghetti strap sundress, and a bright yellow sleeveless flowy top with cute little pockets on the sides. I can't wait for the warmer weather to get here and actually stay for a while so I can wear them! In between shopping and nails, we stopped for a bite to eat at a little place on Bleecker St. and on our way home made a quick stop at Magnolia for my fav. red velvet cupcakes.

The best part of today was actually spending it with my Mom. She is truly my best friend. I'm sooooooooo lucky to have someone so loving and true in my life. She supports my every move, and continues to inspire me daily to make my dreams come true. Our long walks in the park talking about life... and sharing some fabulous red velvet cupcakes together? Those moments are not only precious...they are priceless.

My idea of easter outfits...

Happy Easter! The sun is shining bright today, and I'm reminded that yes it is April 12th, and the heat is still on in our house because it is STILL quite brisk outside for an April day!! I can't complain though, as long as the sun is shining! =) So here are a few outfits I came across doing my {dream browsing} on Neimanmarcus.com.

The top is a DVF sequin jacket, I believe first seen on an episode of The City as this was the pattern worn on Jessica Alba for her ELLE photo shoot. I love the flower print and the hot pink underneath with white pants. I've been seeing a lot of white pants recently which bothers me simply because they are not the easiest/ best color to wear for figure flattering, BUT they do look great paired with a bright top and some stunning heels!

The dress in the middle is a Roberto Cavalli (Hey what can I say, I'm a dreamer!!!). Once again love the colors and the print on the dress. I was actually able to pick up something similar to that pattern in a flowy top version from express, and for only $29.99. I love that store!

The bottom is what I believe is classic chic. It's by Elizabeth and James and although they are somewhat pricey, I'm pretty sure their stuff occasionally goes on sale. I love finding an expensive look, becoming obsessed, then doing the ultimate hunt to find a cheaper version of it. I LOVE LOVE LOVE black, I don't care what anyone says, and this is something I would def. wear spring/summer regardless! The sleeveless blazer is obviously what pulls this whole look together, but I just really love that its so feminine yet tough at the same time. Not to mention, leggings leggings, leggings = Luv.

Yummyyyy <3

So after being in the city so much the last few months I finally found time to try PINKBERRY frozen yogurt!! What a money market that little place is turning into! Its soo extremely delicious that I just might have had it twice yesterday! I will most likely hit it again after class tonight. Unfortunately they are only in NYC so whenever I have class I have to take full advantage! =) Some people love their coffee from Starbucks or Coldstone's ice cream. I am officially a Pinkberry fan and don't feel at all guilty when I'm eating it!

I was also reminded that spring is definitely in the air! My sisters wedding is around the corner. April 5th! It came so fast. Anyway the wedding is set to be outdoors weather permitting. I really hope it's a beautiful day, perhaps 60 degrees and sunny? That's not too much to ask for right?!
