My Favorite Color

Without a doubt is NAVY. Navy with burgundy or navy with greens or just navy and white... you name the combo and as long as it has navy i am good to go. My dry cleaner makes fun of me for how many navy pieces I bring her... (no joke, true story). Here are some great ones from my recent pins on Pinterest. 

What's your favorite color?

Fun- July 4th Style

Today's photo of the day is to be about "fun" yet there are so many things that are fun about the Fourth of July... Here is some 4th inspiration that I love from Pinterest recently. I am obsessed with EVERYTHING Red, White and Blue. My family can tell you, there have been years my obsession was WAY OUT OF CONTROL. But hey, we all have some crazy obsession at some point in our lives.

Happy Fourth of July everyone!

It's PACKING time!

I know very few people who actually enjoy packing for a trip. I seem to love it but at the same time guilty of making lists for days. I never know what I will actually want to wear but refuse to pack more than I will need. 

Here are some of my go-to lists from other bloggers:

M.A.S. Fashion

Krystal Schlegel

Luella & June 

Kimberly Schlegel Whitman

In my carry on I always have these Top 10 things:

1. iPad (apple.com) - loaded with a good book(s), TV series/movies

2. Latest fashion mags 

3. iPhone charger & noise cancelling headphones (just purchase a Mophie case- I never travel without one now)

4. Snacks of some sort (gluten free= never rely on airport food)

[my latest favorites: dry roasted almonds, kale chips, something sweet that won't melt, cut up fruits and veggies]

5. Sweater because the airplane is always freezing! 

6. Scarf [always in a fun print] 

7. Emergency makeup pallet (ie. this one from Trish)  

8. Dog treats for Mr. Bendel (these from Cloudstar)

9. Makeup Wipes and Jack Black Chapstick

10. My LV notebook that is always in my purse... never know when you will need to jot something down! 

What are your favorite essentials?

Monday Morning...

Another Monday morning... while getting dressed this image sums up my Monday frustration:

Have tons of them but never know where they disappear to...

However, I will be back @Bergdorfs on Saturday morning... this is what will be getting me through the week! Can't wait to see my mom and be in the city.

No Longer the Power Suit

Goodbye to the days when women were forced to dress like men in the workplace. Today, a sense of power comes from sophisticated looks that borrow a little from the boys and a heck of a lot from the girls. As we all know it has been about ruffles and mix matched patterns, colors and textures for quite some time... This article in yesterday's WSJ hits the nail on the head when it comes to work fashion. For women it can be so fun! It takes practice and initially a lot of work but just like any other habit, once you get going you can't stop. What are your favorite mixed looks?
