Rain, Rain, Go Away

It's pouring here in NYC today, which is never fun.  I ventured out to get bread for my breakfast toast to Whole Foods and wasn't thrilled to come out to pouring buckets of rain.  I'm headed off to work soon, so at least I'll be inside for the rest of the day. I was slightly bored this morning, so instead of drooling on Pintrest over food items, I decided to make my DREAM Christmas wish list.  Mind you, I probably won't get any of these things, but it's fun to dream!

Hermes Clic H, $610

I think these bracelets are so classy and a great way to dress up your stack. I haven't tried them on yet (chickened out at Hermes on Madison a month ago), so I'm sure they'd be big on my child-size wrists, but they're still adorable!

Longchamp Expandable Travel Tote, $255

When I travel anywhere, I'm always lugging around my Vera Bradley Duffle (in Purple Punch) which is practical and you see most college students with them. However this is a lot more grown up since I'm graduating in the spring. The reviews are awesome for it, and I love all the Longchamps I have!

Tiffany & Co. Bead Earrings, $125

These are a classic. I pretty much wear the same pearl or diamond studs every day, but it would be nice to be able to mix it up with these! Plus they're in the affordable area of Tiffany's, but don't have the logo all over them like everything else. 

Alexander Wang Rocco, $875

I've liked this bag for some time, but wasn't thrilled with the shape. Then I used my Speedy when I was home and forgot how much it holds and is easy to carry. The studs make it unique and so it never touches anything gross on a seat on the subway or whatever!

 

Christian Louboutin Nude Simple Pump, $625

Christian Louboutin is proving to be a staple in the fashion world. We got in countless pairs during my time at my internship.  After much searching, trying on, and analyzing--I think these are the perfect nude pump. They are gorgeous and the signature red sole adds a little pop. 

Louis Vuitton Neverfull- Damier, $900

Ok, so I have a love/hate relationship with this bag. I love how practical it is, but almost everyone has one. Thus, why I would pick this Damier print. Everyone has the typical LV logo one, but I love this print and it's a little different!

Balenciaga Wallet, $495

I've already expressed my love for Balenciaga, but since I went home last weekend and Nordstrom started selling it, it's a little less popular for me. So, I'd just want a wallet to go in one of my 8 million dream purses!

Have you been thinking about Christmas yet? Or have any dream items?

 

Hello!

I feel terrible neglecting my blog, but things have been crazy the past few months.  August had a whirlwind trip up to the city to find, apply, and sign a lease on an apartment and then getting stuff for it. September was move in and then finally yesterday we put the last piece into place with our internet!

Let me tell you--having an online class is rough when you don't have internet. We tried to get Verizon here to set it up, but 3 failed appointments and a month later, we called Time Warner. They could be out in 3 business days- I was sold. We have fast internet and no issues at all so far! So, thanks Time Warner. :)

Things have been busy- I was back at my old internship for a month to help out with new interns and then NYFW where I was lucky enough to attend two shows in the tents-- Nicholas K and Noon by Noor. Interestingly enough, I was in the background of pictures for the Noon by Noor show with my fellow old-intern friend. She was from the summer and wanted to be here for Fashion Week. Luckily we got most of the extra tickets instead of the new interns.

Can you spot me? 

I'm back working at Georgetown Cupcake, which is a thrill. We've gotten busier over the summer-- I mean, running out of red velvet cupcakes at 7 pm?! It's still fun and not hard, which I need with 18 credits (including 3 Literature classes- so a TON of reading). But at the same time, I'm thinking forward to graduation, which is a scary prospect. But at least I'm there with some pay so I have something when it comes to graduation, which is better than some people have when they come to New York City! 

I've got a full length mirror and an iPhone (with instagram!), so I'm going to start working on more OOTD posts. And I got a pintrest account. So follow me on those!
