Goodbye 2013, hello 2014!  Ending the year off with something fabulous - this MinkPink faux fur coat.  I had my eye on it for a while and then thought what better coat to wear on New Year's Eve?  It's super fun!  The two tones make it really unique.  It's also super soft.  If you're looking for a fab fur coat in one colour, this Wilfred Free one is also amazing.

I hope everyone has a wonderful, fun, safe night!

I've been obsessed with pink for as long as I can remember.  I was always a girlie-girl (when I had a choice, I think because my mom used to dress me up like a boy when I was a child).  There's not a shade of pink I don't love - from the palest of pinks to the brightest.  So, of course, I couldn't resist this French Connection sweater when I saw it.  I was going to wear this outfit on Saturday night but my plans fell through, so I'm wearing a similar outfit to work, swapping the leatherette leggings for a pair of black dress pants.

(p.s. It was windy while I was taking these pictures, in case you were wondering why my hand is constantly in my hair.)

I had plans to meet up with some girlfriends for dinner last night and was excited to wear a cute little romper or dress.  But no such luck, it was cold.  So I pulled out these leatherette leggings I love so much.  I was hoping to, at least, wear them with some leopard wedge sandals I bought a little while ago (that I have yet to wear), but no such luck, it was pouring rain.  Already set on this leopard bag (love the pop of pink!) I have barely used and have had for years, and not one to dress in all black, I thought what better top to pair with these leather leggings and bag than this J.Crew fuchsia sweater.  This linen sweater is definitely a staple, so lightweight and comfy, that I might have to buy it in the other two colours.

I was heading out to a surprise birthday party and was hoping to wear open-toed shoes, but it was still too chilly.  But right before I left (around 7 pm), the sun was still shining and it felt really warm, which wasn't the case an hour earlier.  So I was fooled and threw on a light jacket when I headed out the door, and was freezing in my car by the time I left the bar.  I am not a fan of this in-between weather.  But then again, at least it's not snowing anymore.
