Good morning! Hope you had a good weekend. Today is a big day, I have my first dress fitting for my wedding dress. I'm both excited and nervous. It's strange to think it's been almost five months since I last saw the dress. Once every two weeks I find a pictures and fall in love with the dress all over again. I will admit that I've seen other dresses since and questioned my decision. Thank goodness for my best friend who reassures me I made the right decision with the dress. If you follow me on Instagram I'll be sure to post a photo of the dress (not the entire dress :) ).

Weekend Casual with Printed Sweater & Skinny Jeans

As we inch closer and closer to Spring, a part of me is really going to miss the cold weather. Last year when I lived in San Francisco, I never thought this would come out of my mouth. The past few months in New York have been so memorable. I've really enjoyed the snow and cold weather. Growing up in the Midwest and experiencing the four season probably has something to do with me cherishing the change in weather, nonetheless it's been a beautiful winter. 

On the weekends I like to be a little more casual. I typically steer clear of any work pieces. However, I've been incorporating the PORTOFINO blouse from Express over the past few weekends. Today's outfit is very simple; sweater and skinny jeans. I've been wanting to wear this sweater all season and it paired great with these heels.

Happy Monday everyone! I'm typically not one to wake up early, but last night I went to bed early and got up early this morning to go to the gym. The next few weeks I'm going to get myself motivated to finish planning our wedding. One of my best friends, Nina, is coming in town this weekend to help me wedding plan and explore New York City. 

Yesterday Matt and I stopped by Chelsea Market and I came across and awesome sample sale. I found two great dresses, each for $59 and one plaid coat for $129. I was very pleased with my purchases. I've been looking for some good work dresses. The asymmetrical dress is great for the office. It still looks professional and it also gives your body shape. The sleeves on this dress are the perfect length. I'd feel comfortable wearing this to the office without a blazer. Most women's dresses are sleeveless, so we typically need to throw on a blazer or cardigan.  The slightly longer sleeve prevents you from having to layer at the office. As it gets colder, I'll wear this with textured tights and black heels.

Place you could wear this outfit :: perfect outfit for the office!
