It’s officially gala season in New York City and who doesn’t love getting fancy for a cause. For a recent hospital gala (work requires I attend a few each season) that did not require black tie attire, I wore the most gorgeous emerald green look. Jewel tones are always a great choice for Fall evening events,…

Trend Alert: Tie-Front Everything
From tops to dresses to jumpsuits, TIE-FRONT IS THE SILHOUETTE OF THE SEASON. I admit, tie-front pieces can be a little tricky to wear (expect to go braless or master your stickies) and you’ll have to be willing to show a little extra skin (yes, we’re talking serious midriff exposure) to pull off the look,…
Winter Prep: Striped Sweater with Flared Sleeves, Raw Hem Boyfriend Jeans, Green Ring Belt, Tweed A-Line Blazer, Black Backpack and Sergio Rossi Combat Platform Boots
As I prep for another year, I’ve been slowly cultivating a list of New Year goals. Among too many is my resolve to push the limits with my own style – to cultivate looks that are less predictable, less on trend (yes, I said it) and challenging myself to wear silhouettes that I don’t often…
Monochromatic Holiday: Heather Gray Two-Piece Dress, Velvet Navy Over-the-Knee Boots, Two-Tone Cocoon Coat, Chanel Vintage Earrings and Brooch, and Slate Round Double Handle Bag
I love a classic holiday look – red, green or sparkles. But, this season, I’ve tried to be more inventive in my interpretation of festive and relied a bit more on texture and tone to create looks that are more modern. For a mid-week, post-work, holiday dinner, I decided to create a monochromatic silver/gray toned look. During NYFW SS18, I attended an awesome event…
Holiday Party Season: Black Jumpsuit, Gold Floral Statement Earrings, Single Strap Black Suede Stilettos, Gucci Padlock Supreme Shoulder Bag and Gold Horn Necklace
I hope you all enjoyed a beautiful Thanksgiving holiday! But now that turkey day has come and gone, holiday party season is officially in full swing and it’s time for some serious outfit planning.

Shades of Gray: Slouchy Cable Knit Sweater, Ribbed Knit Pencil Skirt with Button Detail, Open Front A-Line Blazer, Prada Camera Bag and Silver Stiletto Ankle Boots
Day 2 of NYFW started early with morning shows and I wanted to be sure that my first outfit could take me through the greater part of the day. To create a versatile look, I layered a number of classic neutral pieces that could be taken off or worn together. Here’s how I put together…
Summer Stripes: Off-the-Shoulder Striped Dress, White Patent Sneakers, Orange Lens Aviator Sunglasses, Gold Gucci Disco Bag and Gold Hoop Earrings
I’m super excited for the upcoming holiday weekend (although it’s always bittersweet to celebrate the official end of summer) and with Labor Day just around the corner, I’ve already begun plotting my best Americana-inspired looks. You know I love incorporating a theme into my wardrobe, but the key is doing it without being too literal….
The Summer LBD: Black Backless Skater Dress with Ruffled Straps, Tan Straw Hat, Round Rattan Basket Bag and Nude Knotted Slides
Sundays are the best days… and this summer, I’ve been trying to spend a bit more time beach-side, but on days where the weather isn’t permitting or I just want a little break from the sun, you’ll find me up to my usual brunchin’ somewhere in the city. And, if you know me, a good…
Weekend Attire: Black Halter Crop, White Skater Mini and Lace-Up Sandals
Last weekend, Bugsy and I were heading out into the extreme NYC heat to see Penn & Teller, so I wanted something fun and night-appropriate, but not overdone. To keep things fun and flirty, I paired my black t-strap crop with my favorite white textured skater mini. Because we were walking to the theater, I couldn’t wear…
Neutral Pairings: White Jacquard Top, Cream Pleated Bermuda Shorts & Woven Accessories
Lately, I keep having nightmares about running into a colleague or client while wearing one of my boho/festival inspired summer outfits. I mean…could I really blame someone for not taking their crop top and cut-off short wearing lawyer seriously? I’m sure this moment of self introspection will pass, but in the meantime, I decided to…
