Winter Wonder(fur)land

Sorry it has been so long since my last post (a whole week ago-eek!). Things have been so insane here at the mag...traveling to LA for a shoot with the insanely fit and gorgeous Rebecca Romijn last week, cover shoots here in NYC with the lovely Tori Praver this week, and I'm off to Mexico next week for a press trip (god my life is good!).

Sooo I figured I'd get a post up quickly so I don't leave you all hanging any longer!
Even though the weather is warm today (I can't keep up with this hot and cold crap anymore...it's November, time to stick to the cold!), I wanted to share a cool editorial that I came across. I've blogged about my leather obsession this season, but you should know that I'm totally addicted to fur. When I came across this story in the November issue of Harpers Bazaar I think I might have died, and gone to a wintery fur heaven. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous-this coming from a beach and sun kinda girl-and the styling is insane...as usual. I'll take one of each look now please...

A Glimpse

I've been totally swamped in the office this week (how is it only Tuesday?!), so I haven't had too much time to work on posts. I decided to give you guys a little glimpse of my outfit today. I'm pretty obsessed with it...just sayin'. Leaving for LA tomorrow for a big celeb shoot on Friday. Kind of can't wait to get out to there...I've been craving some Santa Monica beach...and warmer weather!

Happy Halloween

Unfortunately the East Coast got hit with a ton of (dare I say it) SNOW this weekend. Crazy. Insane. Not okay. All of the above. #Snowtober pretty much put a damper on my weekend, and my Kelly Kapowski costume has been put away for another year...so sad. In any case, it's Halloween, so eat lots of candy like you did when you were 10. Happy Halloweenie everyone!

Friday Happiness

This week has been crazy busy, and for the first time in a while, I'm wondering what happened to the week. Usually I find myself pining for the weekend (don't get me wrong, I'm totally psyched for this weekend), but this week I found myself asking where the time went. I crammed so much in (market appointments at work, a Figure 4 class at PureYoga-totally kicked my butt by the way-, a mani/pedi with my mom, baking and frosting a million mummy cupcakes for the Muhlenberg Ice Hockey team, and of course tons of things happening at work) that I can't believe it is Friday already. Woohoo for that though! Tonight will be spent at home with my puppy baking MORE halloween cupcakes-this time for my boyfriend- and eating some takeout...from where I am not sure. Tomorrow I have a full day of things planned to do at home and a few errands, and then Hoboken for the night for some Halloween festivities. What are you all being?? I posted a sneak-peek of my costume in last week's Friday Happiness post...

Leather Up

I love leather (and fur, and tweed, and linen), but I really do love leather a lot. It's edgy, glam and sophisticated, and can be worn in so many ways. I bought a brown fitted leather moto-inspired jacket last summer when I was in Italy (take me back now!), and it is one of my favorite pieces that I own. 

Since leather is so huge this season (it should ALWAYS be huge), I am totally living in a leather fantasy world. I've been dying to get my hands on a pair of these (but in black)...can't seem to find them in my size anywhere!! Is a 4 too much to ask for?! Here's a little wish-list of leather loves <3

A Little 20's Lovin'

Free People recently shot and released the 20's set of their "Through the Decades" lookbooks. I am so excited for this because my favorite time period is the 20's...so glam, so fun, and so flashy. I love all of the drop-waist dresses and the beading is incredible. The look of the photos is so true to the 1920's...smokey, mysterious, and sexy. Free People did an amazing job with this...I'm in love.

Coached

Before heading home from work last night, I stopped by the Coach SS 2012 preview to see what the classic and chic company has in store for us. Structured cross-body bags, python print, neutral colors, and top handles were all in the mix. I always love how Coach stays true to it's original style, but they manage to mix in fun trendy fabrics or styles. I always know I can rely on Coach to have something that I'm swooning over...like that python bag...gorg!
