obsessed: mauve nails

first seen, unknown; in the depths of fashion blogs on the internet, most likely. but the first reputable and memorable spotting was in MaxMara's s/s 2010 campaign and I was hooked. then, by chance, I found mauve nailpolish floating around in a thrift store.. who knew they even sold nailpolish at thrift stores?! I digress, because mauve nails are my new favorite thing.

obsessed: furry, fashionable boots

waking up to a 9 degree morning (according to weather.com, "feels like -8") requires a billion layers. it is very difficult looking trendy, fashionable, or even cute when you are dressed like The Christmas Story's Ralphy about to go sledding, with limited movement. so, when I got today's Who What Wear e-mail, I was very pleased to see Casey Labow at Sundance Film Festival in furry vintage boots, both braving the cold and looking lovely!



her boots are vintange Ticnica and after one simple search on Etsy (my go-to for any vintage), I found some vintage Ticnica that are equally adorable:



too happy for words. not only were these affordable, they were actually something I would wear. too often I find furry boots that are too tacky, too bulky, or too expensive. unfortunately, these are not my size, but my search will not end here for some furry boots.

obsessed: realistic jewelry

especially of the Hanna Benhard kind.. breath-taking. Sea of Shoes posted about the jewelers so a small investigation discovered that the jewelry was insaaaane. these pins caused me to subconsiously create an outfit in my mind revolving around the jewels.. possible dream-outfit in the future....

spotlight: cute workout clothes

as warm weather approaches and New Year's resolutions are being achieved, we are all rushing to begin our diets and workouts to be beach-body ready. I am at the forefront of these psychotic gym fiends because I have not one but TWO early beach endeavors (Cancun for spring break and Orlando, FL in April) which means I must work extra hard from winter through spring. up until recent, my gym attire consisted of old cheering soffee shorts, old cheering shoes (which were super light, perfect for running, but strained my feet), and old oversized T's. but with a new year comes new perspectives, which is why I am determined not only to get myself to the gym everyday (or almost everyday, let's be honest..) but to also look just as cute and stylish as I would outside of the gym.

Ashley Olsen was an inspiration; she was seen recently jogging in an unlikely outfit to be jogging in.. only an Olsen. why I love them.

obsessed: this outfit with Uggs!

I am, sadly, a sucker for Uggs because they are just too damn comfortable.. and warm.. and soft.. and cozy.. and warm.. did I mention warm? so I always like seeing Uggs paired with something other than sweatpants and a sweatshirt and this outfit is so cute, and most definately comfortable.. and warm.. and soft.. and cozy.. and warm..
