Afternoon at Ralph's

This week has been weird because my visiting best friend went back home to MN. We did have an amazing time, and I think she loved her first little tour of NYC. While we were in the city, I said we HAD to stop at Ralph's Coffee for a pick me up. I had not been to the location on Madison ave yet, but heard that it was the CUTEST, preppy coffee place ever. It did not disappoint, and the cappuccino we had was perfect.

You can also buy the Ralphs's coffee cups and coffee online, so if you can't make it up to the Madison Ave location, you can have it shipped to your door 😊








I obviously had to wear my Gal Meets Glam Celeste dress in navy, with a strand of pearls. This dress was seriously the best dress to throw on, and explore the city when it was in the "in-between" transition temperatures from winter to spring. The silhouette is so simple and classic, and you can really style the dress how ever you want to!

I have had some questions about Gal Meets Glam sizing. On their website, they have a size chart to follow, and I think that it is pretty true, and that the sizing is pretty TTS. It can even run a tad big, and you can size down with some pieces. I would say that the dresses that are just cotton, do not have any stretch what so ever, so size up 1-2 sizes. I am normally a 4-6 in dresses and skirts, and these are the sizes that I wear in the brand. I more often for the 4 because some styles do seem to run a little bigger, but I have 6's in dresses with no stretch! Hope this helps!


As always,

A Thanksgiving Look

Turtleneck  |   Skirt  |   Tights  |   Boots Thanksgiving is only one week away! I am excited to go home, and spend time with my family and friends. This is a holiday that is HARD to dress for. On one hand, you want to wear joggers and a big sweater because of all of the yummy food and treats. On the other hand, you want to dress up, or slightly dress up while still feeling comfy. Hence, the big dressing dilemma: how to create the right look for your kind of holiday? I like to dress it up a little , without wearing a cocktail outfit or gown, haha. I created this look for a dressy, casual look. It is an easy outfit to put together, and I bet you have some similar pieces in your closet! A turtleneck, plaid skirt and tights is such a classic fall look that is also great for this holiday. It is kind of an easy dressing equation too because it is so easy to mix and match what you have in your closet, or buy one new piece that you know will go with an...

My Gal Meets Glam Collection

Hello! You might have already figured this out, but I have a serious obsession with every single Gal Meets Glam dress and collection . I feel like I am starting to grow quite the collection of the insanely beautiful dresses. I recently did a poll on my Instagram, and you guys said that you wanted to see my collection. I have compiled pictures from older posts, and from my iPhone to show you! I have purchased all of these on sale, or received them as gifts (thanks mom). I think getting them on sale is my secret for buying Gal Meets Glam dresses. They are 100% worth the investment, and will always be in style because they are such classic pieces and silhouettes. A new collection comes out about every month, and every month I look at it, and think: I want it all!! The next drop is March 13th, and I am so excited!! I have added the name of each dress below the picture. Because these are from the "older" collections, I cannot find most of the links. But here are my tips if you...

Classic Tan Trench //  I had my eye on this one from J. Crew for a LONG time. The other week, it was 25% off, I had a J. Crew gift card, AND I had $15 dollars in J. Crew rewards money, so I HAD to get it!! I am obsessed, and I cannot wait to wear it on repeat this spring!! Here are some more cute options that are on good sale!!: Tan Trench 1 , Tan Trench 2 .  Simple Closet Staple Pieces // I have been on Pinterest pinning a lot of more classic staple pieces. Things like simple solid colored turtle necks and sweaters. I recently bought this sweater from Tuckernuck , and have been wearing it on repeat! It is so easy to style well, and style differently. I recently wore it with black watch plaid pants and loafers. Loafers are another classic piece that I recently added to my wardrobe. My mom surprised me, and sent me these...
