Dreaming of warmer days….My Miami Photos!!!!

Miami

MiamiMiamiMiamiMiami

MiamiI finally had a chance to gather together my photos from my recent trip to Miami.  The weekend was incredible, and the occasian was my best friend Debbie’s bachlorette weekend. We went to South Beach, and the weather, food, and beach was amazing. With the tempeture being so insanely cold in NYC lately, these photos definitely keep me dreaming of warmer days! The thing I love about South Beach is that you can’t wear enough bright neon colors, metallics, or animal prints. “The bolder….the better” is always my motto while there. As you can see from the photos, my friends don’t shy away from color either.   I hope you enjoy the photos!!! Try the Miami look with the links below!

Hello, and happy Fall!! I had the opportunity to shoot with the amazing Katharine Andriotis again recently, and we decided to go to the Union Square farmers market. I don’t know about you, but the moment Fall arrives, all I can think about is pumpkins, hot apple cider, and the crisp Fall air!  The Farmer’s market in Union Square was buzzing with energy.  The fresh organic fruits and veggies were incredible, and I really love the spirit of the Autumn season.  Orange is my favorite Fall color, so I was really happy to receive this beautiful clutch courtesy of Asos, and my amazing friend Meg at RS. This Levi’s denim jacket is perfect for this weather, and you can literally throw it over everything. And, I am still wearing my Rag & Bone Newbury boots everywhere! They are insanely comfortable!  The outfit I wore is a perfect example of mixing high end items, with very low end items.     (I think my skirt and top were $15 dollars from Forever 21! See links below for details!)  I also love adding bright touches of color to a dark outfit, as I did here, with the neon turquoise belt, and bright orange clutch against dark navy and black. It’s a great way to wear bright colors in the Fall! My amazing boyfriend Chris came along for the shoot, and to pick some fresh veggies with me. 😉  How are you celebrating Fall?

I love my red Celine Nano. It’s the perfect little bag that fits everything. I took it with me today while shopping with my best friend for her wedding.  We hit a few stores, including Zara…….( next post will show my finds!) I think that a red bag is essential in every wardrobe because it’s a bright color that adds zest,  but it’s also surprisingly neutral.   Red bags go with almost everything. Here are some other great choices for small red bags/clutches. This Loeffler Randall one is adorable, and I love this Rebecca Minkoff clutch, and this one as well. I also live in denim chambray shirts….so comfy and easy to pair with everything! I am wearing this awesome one from Forever 21.  This one is a good choice, and this one as well. Can’t wait for Fall!!!

Brooklyn Wedding

My boyfriend Chris and I went to a beautiful wedding in Brooklyn this past Saturday.  It was chic and edgy, with wine, cupcakes and dancing at this awesome bar with outdoor space.  I wore an adorable navy dress that I scored for $24.99 from Forever 21 (similar here, or here) , and paired it with my Balenciaga Blue Lavande clutch (similar look here or here) . I love mixing high and low end items.  It’s a great way to elevate your look and save money! My bangle is Hermes, (some more cool bangles here)  and my ring is YSL. Spike bracelet is CC Skye. It was a beautiful party, and we wish Matt and Sara a lifetime of happiness!  xoxo Julie 😉
