Having a day of YES {preppy girl fall!}


White jeans  |  Ruffle neck shirt  |  Blazer  |  Loafers

Sometimes you just need a day to live, be spontaneous, and fully enjoy yourself. I call it a Day of Yes. What you chose to do on your day of yes, is entirely up to you. Whatever it is, it should bring joy (#sparksjoy). The other week, we totally needed a day of yes, so we popped into the city for some wandering, cupcake eating, and imbibing. Wherever the day took us, that is where we ended up!


We started out in the West Village to do some stoop stalking and look at fall decor schemes. Popping by the Friends Apartment Building is always a must while in the West Village. My favorite street/court in the city is Grove Court, and it was decorated to fall perfection. Of course a fun fall day comes with the perfect fall outfit: white jeans, navy ruffle neck top and camel blazer, completed with the most comfy loafers. I was dressed ready for anything on this day.



From Grove Street, we wandered up Bleecker St., and turned onto Perry to pay homage to Carrie Bradshaw and SATC. We then popped into a few of my favorite shops including Margaux, and The Daily Edited. I am dying for one of their phone cases!! In need of a pick me up, we stopped at Magnolia Bakery on Bleecker, which I think is the original?, for some cupcakes. I had the flourless chocolate cake, and it was a dream!





From there we caught a train to the UWE, and found a nice spot for a champagne cocktail, and wandered through Central Park. The path we took, took us over the Bow Bridge, right by Bethesda Fountain. It felt like true NYC day of yes. Next, we strolled right over to the Gershwin, to ask about student tickets for the show that night, AND they still had some available!! We got our tickets, got a drink, and headed back to the theater for Wicked!! What better way to celebrate Halloween month then seeing the magic that is Wicked!


ALSO, this look is the totally epitome of Preppy Girl Fall. The blazer, and the loafers are the best touches for preppy girl fall. Add some classic Ray-bans, and a Kate Spade bag, and you are set!





How would you spend your day of yes?


As always,

#dontforgetyourpearls

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...

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...
