it's snowing again...and other things







so it's snowing again and i'm kinda disappointed. after a week of below 0 degrees F i was hoping things would start to warm up and melt. it's warmed up but not melted yet!!! anyway got me going through my winter inspos folder which has a lot of winter whites in them! i also threw in some pics of my new pup Mordecai (my son named him from his fav character on Regular Show). enjoy your week!!!

aging with grace





what do zooey deschanel, jane goodall, and grace coddington all have in common? well they all represent (for me) aging with grace. i'm 27 and this year i will turn 28. yes i know not very old now but every year i get older and seems like with every moment i can see my self aging. for most women my age turning 30 is a scary thought, but why? 30 is just an age anyways right? and isn't 30 the new 20? besides all that when women turn this age or are around this age they really start focusing on taking care of their skin and trying to prevent signs of aging. for a while now i've noticed the skin around my eyes becoming thinner and more sensitive. i even have tiny crows feet. my hands when they are cold and dry look so much older than they really are. this has me thinking of what kind of women i will become as i get older. growing up i always heard my mother's complaints about aging and looking in the mirror only to be saddened by what you see. i told myself i would not be like that. my mother doesn't believe in plastic surgery or botox, or any other kind of medical reversal of aging. i've seen many a older lady who has had both done and they look unnatural and often times scary. my mother believes that keeping your skin moisturized, wearing copious amounts of sunblock and watching what you eat is the key to keeping your skin looking healthy and natural and she's right. so in conclusion as i get older i will embrace my fine lines and wrinkles and just keep to my skin routine. i will probably let my hair grey naturally because dying it damages it terribly and i want to keep my length healthy looking like jane goodall does. my style will probably remain the same, age appropriate and still chic like grace coddington's style. after all these 3 women although different in ages have some thing in common, their own personal style and beauty that is all their own!!!

spring uniform

spring uniform by sewniice featuring muscle tee shirts

we had a quick warm-up (if you think 50 degrees F is warm) here in upstate ny which has got me thinking about spring! i know i still got like 2 solid months of wintry weather but i always think waaaay ahead especially when it comes to what I'm wearing. i am a relaxed dresser so naturally my looks are well, relaxed! i don't shave my legs until the weather is in the 70s and above everyday so in spring i'm still wearing jeans and pairing my outfits with sweaters or light jackets.

So my soccer days are over but my soccer mom days are not! my fitness resolution for this year was to get back into yoga, meditation, and pilates and i don't see anything wrong with donning my usual soccer gear for that!

all black all day






yessssssssss plz! tumblr images

another great ACNE










another label that knows how to do accessories and outerwear to die for! ACNE's pre-fall 13 collection has boxy androgynous cuts but also very feminine skirts and tailored pants! Loving the furry hats and bags, and the tall white boots! The floral dress is gorgeous and still edgy! Another great collection ACNE always seems to never disappoint! photos are from WWD

Celine me plz














Really really in love with this whole collection but these are my favorite pieces. The wide brimmed straw hats and giant belt buckles remind me of of the pilgrims! The scarf printed dress and the ensemble in the photo directly above remind me of India! The coats are all just amazing and would love to have each one!!! Love the shoes, the pant suits, the bags, pretty much everything about this collection! You can see the whole thing on WWD! All images from WWD.
