The Friday Roundup

The Friday Roundup



one :: Sam Edelman Boots $180 // I've had a crush on these boots for two months. This weekend might pick them up and add to the collection. 

two :: Christmas Tumblers $24 // A few weeks ago I posted the original Mr. & Mrs. tumbler set, which I almost bought. This week I saw these and feel in love! Purchased them!

three :: Silk Pajamas $140 // During Lucky Fabb I purchased a set of silk pjs and they are heavenly. I wear them almost every night. They are really easy to wash. Once a week I soak them in the sink with detergent and air dry. Like new! 

four ::  Elephant Statue  $42 // Elephants are my favorite animal. So naturally I feel in love with this gold elephant. 

five :: Arrow ring $31 // Love these dainty rings. A few of these on your hands and you automatically become cute & trendy. 

six :: Faux Fur Coat $270 // The temperature is quickly dropping and all I can think about is buying coats, hats and gloves to stay warm. I hope I survive this winter! 

seven :: Houndstooth Skirt $48 // Looooooove this skirt. This skirt is a must for any corporate girl who loves houndstooth. Such an easy pencil skirt to wear to the office. 

eight :: Jewelry Holder $50 // Ateliers are popular in our household. Thought these would be cute to store my jewelry.

nine :: Black Pumps $97 // The style of these pumps are great for the Holiday. You'll need a good pair to get your through the holiday season. Highly recommend a pair similar to these if you're in the market to buy "holiday heels".  

ten :: Plaid Shirt $28 // One of the biggest trends today, plaid/tartan. For the fall and winter, this is a good piece for your collection. It will go with almost any casual outfit for the season.

 The blogger collaboration continues! This week we're featuring the monochromatic trend. Monochromatic is wearing solid hues from head to toe. In my outfit post, I wanted to wear my favorite faux leather skirt.  I started digging through my sweater pile and I came across this brown turtleneck sweater. Brown + turtleneck, sounds like a recipe for disaster, but the skirt and heels really helped the outfit come together.  The headband was inspired from Gal meets Glam. Julia always looks so cute with her headbands. If I were to redo this outfit, I'd probably take off the necklace for this outfit.


On a side note, Monday night I meet up with Hitha from Hitha on the Go and enjoyed a few glasses of wine and talked "shop". She's the type of person you can talk to forever, she's a wealth of information and always knows the latest designers and the coolest places to visit. I digress. During our four hour wine session, she recommended that I start a monthly corporate series on my blog. To answer the questions lots of women have in the work place and share helpful articles I've read throughout the week. Would my readers be interested in a series like this for the corporate girl?

5 Nude Heels for the Office under $100

5 Nude Heels for the Office under $100



For the past few months I've been on a mission to find the perfect nude heel for the office. I finally settled on a pair from Zara. It's a t-strap, pointed toe heel. They are sold out on the Zara website, but I managed to pick up a pair at a local Zara store. The t-strap heels is a great work heel because it lends extra support throughout your day.  

Here are a few more pumps that are great for the office. Every corporate girl needs the perfect pair of nude heels! 

 
one :: Steve Madden $95
two :: Zara  $90
three :: Misguided  $40
four :: Zara $90
five ::  Monsoon $90

 Morning! Hope everyone had a good weekend. Ours was filled with home improvement projects and strolling around NY. On Saturday morning we went to Bryant Park for a couple crepes and watched the ice skaters. Then on Saturday night we painted our fireplace. Last month, I posted some photos of my apartment, to give you an idea, we painted the fireplace black and stained our mid century coffee table.

Looking forward to a busy week... traveling up to Boston for business and then later this week hopefully we'll pick up a Christmas tree. We're both so excited to decorate the house for the holidays.
