Man, I have been really bad at blogging lately. I promise my outfits have been on point, but to be honest I just need to stop making excuses. So first goal, is to stop making excuses and my second goal is to post more.

I would certainly cite M.I.A. as one of my top fashion and style icons. The way she manages to just get out of bed and instantly have an effortless cool vibe to her fascinates me. Speaking of her, have you listened to her music? Genius. When I heard Donatella Versace had approached M.I.A. on creating a collaboration I nearly shrieked. Versace Versace Versace ♫ This Versus collaboration was based off of knock-offs, so essentially knocking off, knock off designs, if that makes sense? All of the patterns remind me of M.I.A.'s latest single Bring the Noize's album artwork. Plus, the patterns remind me of things my brother brought me back from India last Christmas, mixed with original Versace shapes. Some of these pieces are a little too loud for me, but hey if you have £130 laying around, I wouldn't mind a dress or two.

Do you ever feel like you truly know someone even though you've never really met them before?
Well, I sure have. I've been following Cori Black on Instagram for as long as I can remember. She happens to be part of the 28 people I follow. Atypical from most, I don't follow hundreds of people on Instagram, because I like a good selection of photos and people that I'm interested in. Cori's feed is full of cute pictures of: her boyfriend Sam and her, fascinating claw nail art, her ever changing red hair, great bands, her pups, and Michael Kors' bags which are subtly strewn in many of her photos. I originally started following Cori because she's got great style. She always has the perfect equation to how much black should be worn in an outfit. I would really love to raid her closet, not going to lie. Cori and I did a little interview, below. She also has a blog! You should definitely check it out, it's called, "Does it Come in Black?" I love it already.

Occupation?
Currently I am an administrative assistant at an Electrical Contractors office, sounds not-so-glamorous right? I worked in retail for over five years and wanted to try out having a set schedule and weekends off, holidays too!
Where she lurks
Central Jersey
Favourite stores/labels?
I'm a sucker for Michael Kors & Jeffrey Campbell, I just can't get enough. As for my less realistic favorites of course there's Chanel, Louis Vuitton & Celine. My go-to store is always Tobi, they never disappoint and I do have a tendency to place several orders a week.
Favourite Starbucks drink?
Toffee nut & white mocha frap. Mixing any flavor with white mocha makes it so much better!
Currently Coveting?
I think my list of wants is taller than I am! I've had my eye on the Sam Edelman "Keegan" bootie for a few weeks now as well as a Rebecca Minkoff bag, still deciding which one though, can't I just have them all? I also have my eye on the small leopard print Michael Kors cross body bag as well as a few others.
Current inspiration?
I've been obsessing over booties lately, the shoes, of course. I love how every designer/store has something different whether it be the shape, heel height, color, pattern or embellishment. When I look through them I can instantly think of a perfect outfit for each of them and they're all completely different from one another.

Since my favourite time of year, Autumn, is just around the corner, I decided to wear an old thrifted blouse before I lost the crisp warmth of September.
Wake Me Up When September Ends
September 22, 2013
Since my favourite time of year, Autumn, is just around the corner, I decided to wear an old thrifted blouse before I lost the crisp warmth of September.
I'm back from my Destin vacation! The few days I stayed went by way too fast with people I love way too much. I did enjoy my away time from university, but truth be told I missed my roommate dearly. I went to Destin, Florida with my best friend Abbey for her sister Beth's wedding. Which happened to be right on the beach. When we arrived I was in awe upon seeing palm trees galore. NYC doesn't have them?! The first thing I did in FL, was get my first pedicure- a little overhyped to me, but I did enjoy it. I was set on a cheeto orange and chose Color Club's, "Psychadelic Scene." We spent the few days shopping at an incredible outlet mall, spending time with family and friends, exploring the beach, screaming at lizards, and setting up for a beautiful beach wedding. I captured most of the moments on my Nikon and only took a few pictures for myself, surprisingly! I wore a Pink Punch dress by Milly to the wedding which I found perfectly suitable for the tropical paradise I was in. I'm happy to be back at school because there aren't hundreds of lizards wandering around outside, but I do miss the Florida sun.
