OUTFIT {HOW TO WEAR A PONCHO}



I've been something of a sweater fiend lately — all I want to wear are elbow patch sweaters and oversized cashmere. I wasn't entirely sure how to wear a poncho before Jigsaw sent me this pretty knit option but now it's seriously the comfiest item of clothing I own. I wore mine over a plain navy t-shirt but I also think it would be pretty cute over an oxford shirt! What do you think? Would you wear a poncho? Let's hear it! 

P.S. Check back here this afternoon for an exciting announcement! 

JACK ROGERS NAVY GLITTER GIVEAWAY!


My friend Anne wore this dress to our Sail To Sable party last week and it was basically love at first sight. Navy and sequins in one pretty little dress? Yes please. Suddenly I found myself wanting to plan a winter vacation just so I had an excuse to add it to my closet. #normal

We hosted the party at the Jack Rogers store on the Upper East Side (it couldn't be cuter!) and these navy glitter sandals also totally caught my eye... You could say I'm a little predictable ;) I'm extra excited that Jack Rogers is generously giving away a pair of them to one of you! Simply follow the steps in the widget below and I'll draw the lucky winner on Friday! Good luck!





WINTER WEEKEND


You. Guys. This week was insane. Blogger events, emails up to my eyeballs, inventory everywhere, orders waiting to be picked up, running on way too little sleep... I feel totally burnt out and need to take better care of myself this weekend. It was definitely one of those weeks where I felt the growing pains of owning a small business — I can't wait to be able to think about securing office space, hiring more helping hands, and really kicking things up a notch in 2014.

This weekend my friend Wes (follow him on Twitter, he's hilariousis visiting from D.C. and I'm so excited to spend some quality time with him in between a few really exciting projects for the blog. I'm so grateful for friends who put up with my craziness and help me poke fun at myself... As they say, laughter is the best medicine! I hope you all have a good one and I'll see you back here — hopefully feeling a little more like myself — on Monday! xx
