Today’s outfit is what I called my “toned down” look.  I started with black and brown basics, because they always makes for an easy foundation, but it just wouldn’t be me without a few pops of color.  A neon cardigan, a bright clutch, and bold nail polish and there you have it — an outfit that’s perfect to usher in the weekend.  Happy Friday everyone!

easter egg.

April 1, 2013

To usher in the gorgeous weather from this Easter weekend, I took a page out my own book and paired a floral print skirt with an equally peppy print.  It finally feels like spring on the East Coast and barring any freak snowstorms (i.e. two weeks ago), it looks like bright colors and bare legs from here on out.  Skirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpSkirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpSkirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpSkirt The Rules Blog; NYC fashion blogger; style blog; spring outfit photo; J.Crew Factory purple gingham shirt; J.Crew Factory floral pencil skirt; BaubleBar pink tab necklace; J.Crew turquoise stretch bracelet; Michael Kors gold and mother of pearl boyfriend watch; Coach Legacy Penny bag in lime; Pour La Victoire Mai patent wedge pumpWEAR

pop of purple.

January 23, 2013

Wonder skinny calf hair bangle; Tory Burch Robinson black leather tote bag; Pour la Victoire Mai wedge in black patent

I took a cue from the Obama girls and added a pop of purple to today’s outfit.  The contrast between the black and white graphic print shirt and the bright violet blazer makes for a sharp, clean look.  It reminds me of a variation I wore this past summer.  And while temps in NYC are crazy cold this week, I’m inspired more than ever to keep my outfits bright and cheery all winter long.
