COBALT BLUE STEEL

 






Happy Thursday, my dears! I hope you stayed warm and survived the brutally cold weather that swept across the country. What made my week go by a little faster than usual is the fact that it’s my birthday tomorrow and I’m super excited and a wee bit giddy.

The unforgiving cold here in New York made me miss the sunny weather in San Francisco over the holidays. Today's outfit features a coat I wore in San Francisco right after Xmas. I’ve always loved cobalt blue and I have a number of cobalt blue items in my wardrobe from sweaters to dresses, but I’ve never owned a cobalt blue coat. I honestly felt as if a coat in this color was missing from my closet. When I first saw the coat the other day, I knew immediately that this was what I'd been looking for. It brightened up my entire outfit and matched perfectly with my cobalt blue boots :) Thank you so much for reading and have an amazing Thursday :) XOXO

PARIS DATE NIGHT ESSENTIALS

 








Happy Tuesday, everyone! Hope you guys are having a great week. 
Winter sales are still going on at stores such as Mango, J Crew (extra 40% off on final sale), Guess, Mango, NastyGal, Barneys, Tibi (up to 70% off) , Helmut Lang(Additional 25% off on Sale item), Topshop, Shopbop and Nordstrom etc. A number of brands are trying to clear this season's stock for the new upcoming spring collection, so right now is the perfect time to buy this season's items while you still have a chance to wear them over the coming months. Most of us don’t really look forward to the cold, but we can look forward to a cute and stylist winter outfit!

I wore today's outfit for a date night. I have always loved the tutu skirt. At the end of the Paris episode in Sex and the City, Mr. Big found Carrie after everything had fallen apart and her trip has not gone to plan. They walked together on the street and tears turned into laughter and kisses while Carrie wore a pastel tutu. I just can’t forget about this scene because of how beautiful and sweet it was.

Today’s outfit is a tutu that is definitely cuter and more eye-catching than a previous one I’ve worn. This one is perfect for a special date night. Some days you just don't feel like wearing a skirt and you want something extravagant. I love wearing it with my Louboutins. They’re in black and will never go out of style. I truly consider them a worthwhile investment. They’re always so classy and the combination makes me feel special and adds to the romance of the night. My Louboutins are always associated with some incredible days in Paris. I know one day I’ll have to head back to Paris to have a date night with my tutu skirt and Louboutins. The two are a few of my romantic date night essentials. What are your essentials for a romantic date night with your special someone? :)
