Earlier this week I got to spend some time with Kiernan Shipka (aka Sally Draper of Mad Men).
She. Is. A. Doll.

IN MY CART: ZARA HAUL
Gold Heels; Black Sandals; Lucite Heels; Floral Shorts Set
I have stalked each of these items for a while and finally decided to pry the debit card out of my wallet and invest in some new pieces. (I am incredible strategic, so purchases take some thought.)
IN THE TRENCHES
This look goes from work to cocktails to the Mavs game; it is perfect for travel because it is venue-agnostic, chic for all occasions.
The reason it works: mixing textures. My cotton trench dress (thanks, Mom) is a nice contrast to the snakeskin booties and patent bag. This theory works in your wardrobe and in your home- just remember, texture.
BCBG Trench Dress (suggested similar); Maison Martin Margiela Booties (similar on SALE); Givenchy Nightingale Bag
ETSY FIND: GIIA
I got to hang out with Andy (Style Scrapbook) at the CurrentlyObsessed.me party in NYC earlier this month and she was wearing the most incredible jacket. In my search to track down the jacket, I ran across another great piece that she wore that weekend- her giia neon necklace.
Giia is one of my three favorite sellers on Etsy (remember the iPhone case and girly bow bikini?)
I have not placed my order yet because I am torn between the blue one and Andy’s neon version- what do you think? Both are like a piece of art- maybe I should frame one?
HONEY, IM HOME
Over the holidays I moved into a new loft. I have been cheating on my wardrobe with art and decor. (I guess that is how a fashion blogger becomes a lifestyle blogger…)
I stalked this canvas for more than a year and now I finally have it in my bedroom so I am excited to share these images with you.
WELL LAYERED
Ralph Lauren Sunglasses (suggested, SALE at Last Call); Vintage U Mr Moto Jacket (similar); Fur Vest; Asos Cream Dress; Skinny Belt; Vintage Belt/ Necklace; Alexander Wang Adriel Clutch (SALE at Barneys); Aldo Booties (on SALE now!)
IN MY CART: PERSONAL PURCHASES
1. Chevron Drawer Liners: I have seen these all over Pinterest and finally decided to hit “buy.” As with your wardrobe, it is the little things in your home that make the difference and I am excited to give my new organized drawers some personality. I bought a few extra rolls for Christmas presents as well.
2. Chanel Fanny Pack: I am an aggressive and learned consignment store shopper and this week I score a Chanel fanny pack! The best part is that I only paid $230 for it!!! I had good karma built up…
FEATURED: ACKERMAN MCQUEEN
My story was just featured on the cover of AM Press, a weekly video magazine produced by Ackerman McQueen. It was great to work with AM – they’re an ad agency based in Dallas and they specialize in producing some really great cultural features on fashion, music & art.

EXPRESS teamed up with VENZedits to give one reader a trapper hat; you may remember from last season that this piece is one of my favorite accessories.
