Week's Worth of Outfits

Ahhh! I haven't posted forever and missed last week's WWOO. I'm horrible. This week was so busy- they stack it on the week before Thanksgiving break just to break you down, I swear...oh well.

MONDAY:

Top it with this effortless-chic gray cardigan from Vince.

Finish with these coordinating Fairytales are True ballet flats from Urban Outfitters.

TUESDAY:

This See by ChloƩ blouse has a quirky 60's feel to it, especially the vintage looking print. This is actually quite a versatile top despite the wild print- it can work with jeans, skinny or wide leg pants, or skirts.

Pair it with this gold tweed Topshop skirt. This is a really unique piece, and so adorable with oranges, yellows, or reds.

Add this wire bangle by SURevolution for a funky and edgy touch.

This dress by Phillip Lim is so simplistic chic- the contrasting white hem looks so sleek against the navy, it is a fabulous and elegant combination.

Add the J.Crew cardigan, this time in a gorgeous pure white.

This Adina Reyter necklace is so delicate, almost as if it wasn't even there. It is so sophisticated and adds that extra bit of glamour every outfit needs.

These metallic flats from Theory are a good contrast to the light colors in the rest of the outfit.

THURSDAY:

Ever since I saw the girl in the last Teen Vogue wearing this, I have been coveting this Marc by Marc sweater. I love how it's purposely turned inside out, and the unique color-block type thing going on is adorable.

These gray wide leg Citizens of Humanity jeans are a perfect compliment.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Who knew Cavalli made amazing jewelry? I immediately fell for this metallic pink- surprisingly, it goes with so much.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

End with these silver Fairytales are True ballet flats from Urban Outfitters. These are simple but so cute.

FRIDAY:

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Urban Outfitters is coming out with amazing sweater dresses for the winter season approaching, and this Lux one is adorable. The turtleneck isn't too bulky, more light than overpowering your neck....which is always good.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Add the basic Sparkle&Fade sweater tights.

And if you're feeling a bit daring, go for the it shoe of fall and winter, the oxford heel, this time done up in a glamorous navy patent leather.

SATURDAY:

Splendid is amazing for its jersey, obviously, but now they have come out with METALLIC JERSEY. Oh yes. This dark silver is so gorgeous and really easy to wear.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Okay, this feels AMAZING. I saw it at Urban Outfitters in some different colors and it was gorgeous. I love this hot pink, it looks funky and unexpected paired with the metallic.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

MbMJ jeans are consistently fabulous- I love this dark pair.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Finish with these studded Burberry flats from Net-a-Porter. These are so versatile- they could be elegant Upper East Side, or hipster-ish...and from Burberry? Who would have thought...

SATURDAY:

Start with the basic black Splendid long sleeved tee.

Layer on this gorgeous cobalt blue leaf-printed blouse from Urban Outfitters. I love the rounded neck on this, and the color can match anything.

JBrand makes fantastic cords and these skinny black ones are fabulous.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

The great thing about cobalt blue is that it can match both gold and silver, while warm colors are usually paired with gold and cool colors with silver. This Lee Angel bracelet from Intermix is a perfect pairing.

DKNY makes these amazing distressed metallic flats. I just can't get over the gorgeousness of these...

I saw this Lux dress at Urban Outfitters today and it was gorgeous- the fabric is incredibly light and breezy against your skin, it feels fantastic. I love this blue print too.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I was unsure about putting this Free People cardigan on over it, but I decided to, since nobody likes to be boring, right? I figured if you matched at least one color in the print, it could definitely work. Oh yes, with almost every sweater I put on here- LEAVE IT UNBUTTONED!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Under it, put your basic black opaque tights.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Keep the rest of your outfit very simple, you don't want to go overboard. These simple black Pedro Garcia flats are perfect to polish off the look.

I love a ton of silver with red, so these silver Tory Burch flats are perfect.

I would love seeing a thick silver bangle, like this Kenneth Jay Lane one, layered with a thin one, like the Giles & Brother one below.

J.Crew Lovelies

I just got the new J.Crew catalogue, and it is absolutely gorgeous. I love everything in it, especially the beautiful Scotland scenery. The outfits are always put together flawlessly and everything was just adorable. The clothes are great, but I also noticed the new additions to shoes and bags, so this post is all about J.Crew's fabulous shoes and bags.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

These metallic flats are gorgeous, I love the crackle finish. These match nearly everything perfectly, and are so versatile.

Here's the same shoe in a beautiful metallic graphite.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I couldn't contain myself when I first laid eyes on this amazing shoe. It's a gorgeous orange color in a luxe satin, what's not to love?

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Obsessed with printed flats. Enough said.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I put these in one of my very first Week's Worth of Outfits, and I still love them to death! They are such an adorable take on the new Mary Janes trend.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I love flats that don't have the traditional bow, buckle, or hardware. These jeweled ones are so elegant and sophisticated.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Beautiful metallic suede flats...the color is just incredible.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

And I still cannot get over the Twinkle flats!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

They are definitely going on my holiday wish list...

Now for the bags!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

J.Crew has fabulous clutches, so original and unique. This reminds me of the Marc Jacobs Softy bags, which is definitely a good thing!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

The Uptown Tote comes in tons of colors and is an essential for everyone- a simple, chic leather tote.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I love the suede Maddy bag, this cherry red is eye-catching and very sophisticated. The bows at the sides are such a fun touch.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This is destined to become my new favorite bag...I mean, it's bright yellow! I love yellow.... These buckled straps on the bag are so elegant, adding a gorgeous touch.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

J.Crew's clutches have to be my favorite, they are so feminine and the colors are gorgeous. This satin clutch is the perfect clutch for an evening.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

After seeing the interns article in Teen Vogue and seeing that girl Mary-Kate or whatever in the cobalt blue blouse and yellow high waisted skirt, I've been obsessed with the blue-and-yellow combination. It's both beautiful and unexpected. This satin clutch is so PRETTY!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

This deep cobalt blue color on this satin Josephine purse is so elegant and sophisticated. I love the chain handle, too.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

I'm a sucker for hot pink...this Tabloid tote is fabulous!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

The Twinkle clutch matches the ballet flats, but I wouldn't advise wearing them together, too matchy-matchy...this clutch is great on it's own though, to glam up a party outfit.

Put on your Mom Jeans...

Ahh...mom jeans. Oh, the tragedy. Unflattering, unattractive, just plain ugly.



This SNL skit never gets old. EVER. "She'll want to wear them with everything, from a soccer game to a night on the town."

While on Urban Outfitters (everything there is either horrifically ugly or absolutely gorgeous...this is choice 1...), I found this vest that was very, VERY similar to the vests shown in the mom jeans commercial...haha.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Never wear this, please. NEVER WEAR THIS.
