Khaki, Olive & Army Green

"Sing like no one's listening. Love like you've never been hurt. Dance like nobody's watching. Live like it's heaven on earth."
- Mark Twain

Khaki is the new black. It is unavoidable since the end of 2015 & I can understand why. It gives a different meaning to neutral, since, let's be clear here, it's really green. I have seen people wear this khaki or olive or army green like it's black, white or grey.

Camel Coat

"Elegance is achieved when all that is superfluous has been discarded and the human being discovers simplicity and concentration: the simpler and more sober the posture, the more beautiful it will be."
-Paulo Coelho

My brother gave me a coat this past Christmas. It's not just any coat, it's the oh so trendy camel coat. Camel coats, you just can't avoid them this season.

Turtleneck Season

As you get older, the questions come down to about two or three. How long? And what do I do with the time I've got left?
-David Bowie

If you're in the East Coast, how weird was that 60-degree Christmas we had? I think I was wearing a T-shirt and a denim jacket with leggings and flats. It was a spring getup, for sure.

Well, winter has officially arrived & 'tis the season for turtlenecks. I'm excited about winter every year, even though I'm never ready....every year.

Yes, I am wearing an over-sized sweater and a maxi skirt with a serious "up to there" slit...in 40-degree weather. Sometimes when you love something so bad, like my love for this skirt, it doesn't matter what the weather is like outside.

Read more to find out where I wore this skirt.

Girly in all black + Tignanello

I remember buying my first ever purse in high school. It was, no lie, Tignanello. It was a mustard colored suede satchel with dark brown leather handles. My thought process was to match it with my Timberland boots....yea, I know, call the style police! I managed to get through high school with that getup, lol.

Mon + Mic

"Each day holds a surprise. But only if we expect it can we see, hear, or feel it when it comes to us. Let's not be afraid to receive each day's surprise, whether it comes to us as sorrow or as joy It will open a new place in our hearts, a place where we can welcome new friends and celebrate more fully our shared humanity."
-Henri Nouwen
