Last night was Fashion’s Night Out! What a whirlwind of fun, fashion and friends. I teamed up with J Brand, who just debuted their exclusive FNO jean, (which benefits the New York City Aids Fund (read more about it here) and ran around the city for the first part of the night with a gaggle of pink jean-clad models and Jeff Rudes, CEO and Founder of the brand. We started out in the Meat Packing District where we took photos in and around The Chelsea Market….

Then it was off to Saks, where we had fun running around the store snapping more pics, chatting with fans and admiring all the pink jeans that were everywhere!

Afterward, I made my way down to SoHo to attend a few different parties my friends were hosting, as well as snap even more pics and chat with fellow bloggers. It was quite a night for me and my J Brand jeans. Pretty sure I showed them a good time as I bounced up and down the island of Manhattan all night long. All in all, the evening was a grand success and I had a wonderful time. Thank you so much to J Brand for everything, and cheers to a fabulous Fashion’s Night Out! xoxo

Yesterday was nuts with all the snow that hit Manhattan, which really was nothing compared to surrounding areas, but still, it was like a mini-white out for a while. To avoid going stir crazy in my apartment by myself all day, I escaped over to a friend’s place to do some work. We sat and sipped coffee, marveled at the snow flurries, and laughed at the funny pigeons that were perched near the window to stay warm. Eventually we decided that food would be a good move, so we ventured out to a nearby restaurant and ate Vietnamese sandwiches and Phở, (my first time!) which really was the perfect food for such a snowy, wet, cold day. I hope you all stayed warm and dry. Did anyone go sledding or make snow angels? xoxo

When it’s raining outside, what’s better than pulling on your rain boots, popping open your umbrella and jumping in puddles all day? Click below to see my rainy day photos!

Whee! I love this jumping photo. My expression cracks me up! So yesterday, despite the rain and cold wind, was a great day. I met a friend for coffee and a croissant and then wandered around SoHo and TriBeCa all day taking in the glorious architecture that is downtown Manhattan. Someday, I’ll live in a spacious, sun-drenched loft in TriBeCa. I think that must be every New Yorker’s dream!

So, as far as this outfit goes, I put it together at the last minute, but really liked the end result as well as the combination of polka dots, plus the two different plaids. The main theme of this outfit turned out to be varying shades of blue, with gray as a neutral and a few pops of red for some fun. What did you do this weekend?

My Outfit:
Scarf: F21

First off, I want to say thank you for your positive feedback regarding my new do! I am having a lot of fun with it and can style it all different ways. It looks cute brushed forward, to the side and even pinned back with a bobby pin.

Anyway, I mentioned earlier that I did a little photo shoot at Chelsea Piers. Well, here it is! The reason for it is my friend Hattie, founder of the company, Save the Date(ing), is throwing an awesome singles dating event tonight at this cool gallery in Chelsea and I needed to figure out what to wear. Hattie suggested we have a little fun and photograph my chosen outfit. I immediately opted for this red number, which is my favorite and is from Anthropologie.

I also wanted to show how you can easily dress up or dress down an outfit just by changing your accessories. So, you’ll see two different looks…one more casual and one more dressy. I decided to wear this white blazer with black flats to give the bright red dress a more casual look and then slip on some nude patent leather pumps to “chic it up” a bit. Anyway, the event is tonight at 7, and will be a tasting of single malts. Yum! So stay tuned for my report back on how it went, and if I met any cuties!

This weekend is supposed to be in the mid to high 80s in Manhattan, and I am beyond excited. Are you up to anything fun? I have a little photo shoot in the park on Saturday, which I will share with you soon, and then a picnic with friends in the park on Sunday. All in all, I think it is going to be a swell couple of days. SPxx
