On Point

Wearing : H&M Coat // Topshop Jeans // Zara Top // Zara Shoes

Wow! Another snow storm has hit but I believe it will warm up from here! As it warms up, cutout shoes are still a favorite but a pointed toe adds a sophisticated and sleek look. Pointed toes are in and will be entering my closet this spring! 

Casual Day

Hi all! Hope your well! Here's a long awaited blog post! And let's just say the wind was crazy in this post! I have been so busy lately with school and sports (which have just started up again). Hopefully it will begin to gradually warm up so I'm able to get more posts up! A Have a nice week! Xo Alana

Slip Ons and Overalls

Top: Reformation // Overalls: Topshop // Shoes: H&M

I apologize for the lack of outfits. The snow is controlling my life so photos come from my lovely basement! I'm obsessed with my Reformation shirt and my leather overalls are my new favorite piece in my wardrobe! Hopefully this snow will stop soon enough.

Lovely Snow

Happy Valentines Day! We were just hit by a gigantic snow storm here in New York! It's been insanely busy, cold, and snowy so it's hard to get outfit shoots in! I hope the snow storms are coming to a close! Have a wonderful week! Making my way down to NYC later this week! See you all soon! xoxo, Alana

NYFW Favorites

It has been incredibly busy these last few weeks with midterms, school, and sports. I still manage to monitor the majority of shows during fashion week though and the new pieces once again have amazed me. Here I share a few of my favorite looks from shows! -Alana

Above are looks from The Kenneth Cole show. I am in love with the dark willowy looks the models expressed in the show. 

Derek Lam is always a favorite, and his super chic looks are on trend. The pointed toe shoes, oversized jumper and flow ly cut out dress is on par. 

Rebecca Minkoff never disappoints with it's girly and classy looks. The coats 100% won me over.

Tibi's outfits were a combination masterpiece. Loved the coats and colors, forever in love with the shoes.

 

Tartan Trousers

Topshop Jacket // Zara Sweater // Zara Trousers // Steve Madden Slip Ons 

Hello! I've been super busy lately! Snow has continued to come down in bucketfuls followed by freezing temperatures! Loving tartan this season whether it be trousers, tops, or jackets. It goes well with many things and can be dressed up or down! Xoxo Alana

TTT: Tartan

Surprise! We are starting a new series called TTT, or Top the Trend. It will be mostly about affordable trends, or buying on a budget. This post, tartan. If you haven't gotten onto the tartan trend, you need to. Just about everyone is buying the famous check pattern and almost every store is selling it. You can get anything from skirts, dresses, pants, and accessories. The most known pattern colors are a deep forest green and blue, or a bright red and blue. Everything shown above is $50 or under and links can be found here. Is there any check print on your holiday list? Hope you all have a safe and happy holiday week!

Simple

Top: Zara // Jeans: Topshop // Shoes: H&M // Bag: H&M // Sunnies: Forever 21

Over the past year I have become in love with elbow pads. Yes, you heard me right. It seems like everyone is loving this Zara shirt though, even Alana has the same one! I am also freaking out over this mini satchel I found at H&M, it has become a part of me. Hope everyone is enjoying the end of their seasonal break. (My title is in English, Spanish, and French according to google translate)

Golden Girls

Top: Marshalls // Jeans: American Eagle // Shoes: H&M // Bag: H&M // Necklace: Old Navy

I'm not sure if I'm the only one but I adore a pink and gold combination. Of course, every girl needs a simple pair of pink ballet flats, mine were on sale at H&M. Compared to hot pink, I choose light pink because it is such a classy look. If you have a light pink shirt on, always put on a gold necklace to pair it off. This will give a simple and classy look.

Hi! Back to school now so its super busy! Can't wait to have a wonderful 2014! Can't believe were already days into the new year.

Maroon N Blue

Jacket: Forever 21 // Top: Topshop // Jeans: Topshop // Shoes: Guess

If you haven't bought a pair of Leigh jeans from Topshop, I suggest you do immediately. These are by far the best jeans I've ever had. I pair it with this burgundy leather jacket and cape blouse which Taissa Farmiga wore on American Horror Story (when I realized I had the same shirt, it was an awesome feeling). Always look to your favorite shows for inspiration.

Rips & Rings

Jumper: Topshop // Jeans: Topshop // Shoes: Steve Madden // Rings: Claire's

In the past few months I have grown overly attached to my boyfriend jeans, along with stacking rings. Unfortunately, blizzards don't allow you to wear these jeans and still be warm, so for approximately the next few days, I'll have to keep my hands off. I pair them with a fluffy knit from Topshop (which is literally to die for) and some Steve Madden shoes I got on sale.
