Warby Parker: Palm Canyon Collection

January 16, 2014 by Diane

I have such exciting news! Warby Parker has just announced their limited-edition Palm Canyon Collection. This new collection of frames come in four styles Winston, Duckworth, Preston, and Wheeler.

The quality and chic styles are what we have grown to know and love about Warby Parker's eyeglasses and sunglasses...and what makes the Palm Canyon Collection extra special is that not one single pair is alike. This is because they have spent a year perfecting their design and construction. Each frame features a hand-mixed acetate inset at the end piece. So when you wear these great looks you'll be extra stylish, yet totally unique.

Also, don't forget that for every pair of glasses that are purchased, Warby Parker distributes a pair to someone in need.

Be sure to stop by and check out the collection. Which style from the Palm Canyon Collection is your favorite?

Put A Lid On It

Hats are my go to accessory when the weather starts to get cooler. Nothing like being fashion forward while masking your bad hair day and keeping your head warm. I can't get enough of them! I recently bought this adorable Daisy Cloche from Brooklyn Industries and made a point to wear it this past weekend. The cold and wind were awful, but the hat kept me looking perfectly put together.

Here are some more styles I have my eye on...

Stitch Banded Hat available at Free People- $58

Zaffre Fedora available at Anthropologie- $48

Bailey® for J.Crew Felt Hat available at J.Crew- $98

Grosgrain Panama Hat available at Urban Outfitters- $39

My oh my...it's been too long! So much has been going on lately. I feel like I've been going in circles. I'm still getting over being sick (this cough is just lingering), and we have been apartment hunting in our free time. Well, it seems like today I can take a deep breath and relax because we got approved for the apartment we wanted in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Our lease starts in December, and I'm so excited! The best part is that we will finally have a view. All the years I have lived in Manhattan we have always just had a "true New York City View"...i.e. a brick wall. In the new apartment we have a view of the Williamsburg Bridge, lower Manhattan, and an iconic Brooklyn water tower. *sigh* I can't wait to share photos with you all.

Must Have: Statement Necklace

January 31, 2013 by Diane

I definitely believe that accessories truly make an outfit. Personally, the one accessory that I cannot live without is the statement necklace. It really adds something special to any outfit. No matter if you are dressed up in a cocktail dress for a party, or dressed way down in a pair of jeans...it gives you instant style!

It's even a huge trend in Hollywood. Here are some of my favorite looks worn by Hilary Swank, Emma Stone, and Nikki Reed. Now I ask that you look at their outfits and try to imagine them without the necklaces...it's just not quite the same. Right? The statement pieces really elevate their outfit to the next level.

What I love most about this look is that it is something that anyone can obtain. Statement necklaces really can range from the very affordable to the extremely expensive. Here are some of my absolute favorite picks that you must check out-
