Colorful Leather Jackets For Fall

Posted on September 18, 2014 by thefashionminx

I am sure everyone is being bombarded with gorgeous chic black leather jacket options for Fall, so I decided to showcase a fun, and bright alternative. Ditch your regular black leather jacket for some color! Just because the weather is getting cold and dark, doesn’t mean your wardrobe has to match! Spice things up with a splash of color, and beat the coming Winter blues!

Here are some of my current favorites! All links to jackets are below!!

XOXOXO

First Row: (Left to right)

1) Veda Max Classic Leather Jacket ( FYI- this jacket comes in 5 colors!)
2) Neiman Marcus quilted leather jacket (I love this color! And it’s on sale!!!)
3) 3.1 Phillip Lim cobalt jacket (I love the metallic finish! It’s pricey, but one of a kind!)

Second Row:

1) IRO ILARIA crackled leather jacket (the finish on this jacket is amazing)
2) Ted Baker Ippal pink leather jacket (perfect mix of tough and girly!)
3) IRO Luiga red leather jacket (This red/orange color is to die for)

I love layering fur vests over coats to make them warmer, and to change up the look of old coats in your closet. Here I put a fur vest over my Mackage coat. The fur trapper hat is a great finishing touch. Shop this entire look below!!!

Snow Day

Posted on January 7, 2014 by thefashionminx

We had our first real snow storm of 2014 in NYC! I wore my extra thick and cozy Isabel Marant for H&M Sweater, but even that could not keep me from freezing. Trust me, I ran inside right after taking these photos for some hot tea and blankets! LOL

I still love bright colors in Winter, I think they brighten up your mood. I also love the print on this sweater, and even though it sold out fast, I found tons of sweaters that achieve the same look! Check below for all the links! Details on outfit below!

By the way…. my SensatioNail mani has lasted me over two weeks since Christmas! I seriously love this at home gel polish!

How are you staying warm this Winter? Share in the comments!

XOXOXO

December Flowers

Posted on December 23, 2013 by thefashionminx

It was 70 degrees in NYC today, and it’s only 3 days away from Christmas! I don’t ever remember it being this warm in the city this time of year. As strange as it may sound, I actually miss the December cold! But, it was nice to attend my best friend’s baby shower today without even having to wear a coat! The floral top made it feel even more like Spring. 😉 I guess we won’t have a white Christmas this year. (Well, never say never!) Details on everything are below.

Black and Gold

Posted on November 30, 2013 by thefashionminx

Happy Black Friday! Have you survived the shopping mayhem? It seems to get crazier every year. I am going to share my Black Friday scores with you in a special post tomorrow. 😉 As for today, I wore black and gold, which is one of my favorite color combos. I got this Michael Kors coat on sale at Macy’s. There are TONS of deals online now, so if there is anything you have been lusting after, now is the time to buy! The boots are Alexa Chung for Madewell, which were an Ebay score since they are sold out everywhere. The calf hair helps to keep the feet warm, which is welcome in the current freezing temps NYC is experiencing! Stay warm everyone!
