TWO-TONED

I picked up this skirt from H&M (I know, right?!), I love the two-toned pleated design.

School Post #3: NY Street Style

I met up with my friend Jaclyn of Stepping in Stilettos today and we couldn't help but share a laugh after realizing how similarly we were dressed! With a nod to Spring '11 runway trends (denim was everywhere from Stella McCartney to Valentino to Akris) and our shared love for fur, we decided to snap our own New York street style pics.

Fur vests, perfect for layering combined with a breezy denim shirtdress is a staple for any FIT student.
What do you think of this spring trend New Yorkers love so much?

ONE MORE STRIPE

Forever 21 hat & shorts ● H&M crop top, jacket, & tights ● Aldo shoes ● Le Chateau bag & scarf

I tried to promise myself I wouldn't buy another navy/white striped top (Exhibit A, B, C, D, etc.), but

the elbow patches and cropped hem got me on this one! Oops...

Hope you are all keeping warm and having an amazing weekend! Leave some love! x Nia

SHAKE ME DOWN

Hey babes, just a quick outfit post before I head out. Picked up this crop top from H&M and have been asked about 10 different times if it's Christopher Kane *sigh*. Oh, the trickle down effect and fashion life cycle, thank-you for saving me approx $400 (Kane, you're still one of my all time faves). 

Will hopefully get to another outfit post this weekend! In the meantime, listen to one of my latest musical obsessions. Peace and love!
