lay(er) it on me.

denim shirt: f21 ; maxi and belt: anthropologie ; hat: urban outfitters ; lipstick: Kat Von D "hellbent"

It's been chilly the past few mornings so I've been layering my clothes a lot this week. Easy go-to's, my fav maxi and as usual a button down. I love my bear head belt(old), it makes me feel like I should be in a log cabin somewhere. Hope everyone has an absolutely fab and safe New Years Eve! Can't wait for lots of sequins and champagne ;)

inspo: holiday decor.

We had Christmas dinner at my Aunts house in Orlando. Her house is beautiful and she decorated it perfectly of course. I love the stars she hung from the chandelier. The last two obv arent the table but I love the giant ornaments and the 12ft tree ;)

Hope you like the photos, maybe it'll inspire some of your holiday tables/decorating.

TGIF!!! Christmas is almost here! These are a few photos I took during the week on my iPhone. Some from a day of Christmas shopping and from a night of wrapping. My little puffin (Rex) loves to help wrap, as you can see ;) Don't you love his T-Rex stocking?! heheh

holiday inspo: glittery lips.

photos from fashion lane

These are a couple photos from LF's new lookbook for winter. The photography is gorgeous and I of course want to own every item of clothing but my fave thing, I love the glittery lip! I feel as though I may need to replicate it for Christmas and/or New Years.

See the rest of the lookbook here

Have a sparkly day ;)

maxi: Nasty Gal ; jacket: i heart ronson ; boots: Jeffrey Campbell via Solestruck ; bag: f21

I love this faux leather bomber jacket, the chocolate brown color is so rich. As I've said numerous times, it never gets that cold here so any time I get the chance to whip out the winter wear I do it!

Can't believe Christmas is in 5 days!! I'll be spending it in Orlando this year. Where are you guys going for the Holidays??

I am in love with Solestruck's new lookbook! The styling is sooo good and I want all the shoes of course but I am also obsessing over the Christmas sweaters! The green one with the felt ornaments is my fav, I see a DIY in my near future ;)

Check out the rest of the lookbook here. I will warn you, you will spend money.

insta diary: my weekend.

Pardon my lack of posting, I worked all weekend so there wasn't much excitement going on. ;) The first set of photos is from WOB one night and Dad's birthday was also this past week so we celebrated Saturday night. My Dad is Sicilian so we went to his favorite Italian restaurant for dinner, bomb ass food is all I can say. I had mahi with artichokes and a delish sauce and the other pic was the bf's lobster ravioli...i die.

How fab are my new Gee WaWa's?!?! Thank you Solestruck! ;)

mad for plaid.

flannel, shorts & boots: Urban Outfitters ; shirt: Anthro ; bag: Rebecca Minkoff ; lipstick: MAC "ruby woo"

iPhone photos of what I wore to my favorite watering hole, World of Beer. I love this long flannel "cardigan", its not too heavy so its perfect for chilly nights in Florida. Received two new bad ass pairs of shoes from the UPS woman today, I'll post photos of the beauties tomorrow!! Can't wait to wear them!
