I've got to say I've been enjoying the heck out of the freshly cut fringe bangs I got done for the new year! When I asked for Penelope Cruz bangs circa Vanilla Sky, with a little sass but light and romantic, I was more than thrilled with the results! Thanks to Fourteen Jay Salon down in TriBeCa, my new do has been my latest favorite accessory. :)

Talking about recent obsessions, I know this trend has been around for awhile now, but I couldn't help but put my own twist on styling a pajama top! I have this Victoria's Secret black satin pajama blouse that I sleep in constantly, but who says you can't stay cozy and chic at the same time? My advice is to keep it casual but playful. Since it's freezing in New York, I've busted out my vintage Saga Furs silver fox coat that I've had for several years. These cute Nina Ricci sandals have also been around for ages, but I love its low heel and minimal feel to any look! With keeping the play on casual, I wore Forever 21 dark denim skinny jeans and added pops of color and twinkles of metal to style the outfit with a touch of luxury. Plus, it complements with the fur coat well.

You guys need to check out Louise & Eleanor! They are an amazing California-based designer handbags line carrying totes, clutches, and more. I'm so in love with the new apple green clutch I got from them, you should see all the other ones they have too! And let's not forget to mention this amazing necklace from a small shop based in Brooklyn, called Metal Mingle Jewelry. They create adaptable mixed metal jewelry with sleek and geometric designs. Absolutely adorable, chic pieces, I was so happy to receive one of their eclectic necklaces! Alright... enough chit-chat about this look! I need to get back to maaaaaad editing... and meetings... and events. Engagement post coming live on Monday so stay tuned! Can't wait to share the love. ❤️

Happy New Year, my dear friends! 2016 had its many up & downs but what I'm most grateful for are the lessons learned from this past year alone. I've never grown so much, both professionally & personally, and can gladly thank my friends, old & new, for your wisdom and support. Your continued love can never be only expressed through just words – I may say a lot (or talk too much), but I thank you guys from the bottom of my heart for your inspiration, good laughs, and fun times, through the thick & thin of it all. You'll never know how much you all mean to me! I am not one to make resolutions... if you ask I'll give you something quite ambitious such as, "eating more donuts," or "learning how to bake more donuts." All kidding aside, I am very excited for the New Year and have a really good feeling that 2017 is going to be unforgettable!

Instead of wishing you all the happiness in the world or how I hope to travel more or be more intuitive, blah blah blah (!), just know that I'm wishing you all lots of whatever your gorgeous hearts' desire. And more importantly, where on earth I found this vintage motorcycle jacket! I'm a huge fan of the Rolling Stones (my favorite album is probably Sticky Fingers but so hard to choose from...) and received (okay, my husband) this from a dear friend. The second I discovered this beauty, I snagged (err.. 'borrowed') it. No idea exactly where it's from but here is a link to a few similar ones!

I also can't help but mention the backstory behind these Terranova Capri denim pants. They're over ten years old and from halfway across the world! When I was studying abroad in Ukraine, I found them in a store while in Odessa. I loved them so much I actually went back for them after first discovering them while out with friends. My 'Detroitish' t-shirt is from Ink Detroit... for those of you who may not know, I grew up in Detroit! I paired the look with sleek black Steve Madden ankle boots that I'm also completely obsessed with at the moment. I think I'll be wearing them rather frequently this first week of the New Year. ;)

Season's Greetings! The last month of the year is always crazy and with the holidays around the corner, I've never been so busy with work! It's amazing I'm somehow able to manage it all with only 24 hours in a day, where even though it never feels like I'm doing enough with day-to-day meetings, events, photo shoots, and creating + editing content, I feel really good about where I am heading in my career. It finally feels right!

With that being said, I have some exciting news! I'm going to be a fashion blogger mentor for students in New York City who are passionate in a career such as mine, where I'll be giving personalized feedback on how I come up with creating content, finding ways to drive traffic to my blog and how I earn revenue from it. I am incredibly honored to do this as I've worked with children in the past as a figure skating coach. It's remarkable how everything always comes together. I'll be sharing more on this in the next couple of weeks - I'm very excited for this opportunity!

Lastly, today's look is brought to you by this stunning Dress Lily collarless ombre faux fur coat. Isn't it darling? I paired this shaggy coat with BDG jeans (my fav from this year), Aldo studded boots and big silver hoop earrings. I like to keep a fierceness in my style because I can be an intense person! It's who I am, no apologies. To heighten the look and make it a little kinky even, I improvised with a wrap-around choker and used it as a belt! The handbag is from Madora and the aviators are by this really cool brand called, Fello Eyewear. You guys should go check out their sunglasses.

Harajuku meets Meagan Ollari in today's look post with embellished bead work, fun prints and white knee highs. The Ollari two piece set comes with a top with an embellished collar and shorts with embellishment around the pockets as well. As you know I adore putting a twist on things in fashion and this outfit in nothing short of that. Even though this set is more toward spring/summer wear, I wanted to show its versatility and uniqueness of Meagan Ollari's designs.

And so I added a little bit of Harajuku fashion from the streets of Japan. Big chunky wedges and schoolgirl-like knee highs certainly elevate the already gorgeous two piece set to another level. I also am loving this starry hair accessory piece by Dress Lily. They have some of the cutest accessories! To polish up the entire look, along with staying warm, I've been wearing the crap of out my VIP me camel coat. It's still perfectly fit for the season until it's time to bring out puffier winter coats, ha ha! And lastly, to bring out the red in the prints I toted around my NY & CO red clutch I've had for years. It's timeless, chic and perfect for the holiday season.

I've got a couple of giveaways going on through my Instagram account! Who wants free gifts before Christmas? ;) One includes an amazing handbag and the other giveaway is coming up this weekend! Come check it out... until next time have a great Friday! I'm off to a bunch of holiday events - cheers to fun, festive, and hectic times! ❤️

It's getting festive up on the blog this month! Happy December & Happy Holidays! Today's post is brought to you by vipme.com, the largest flash sale online retailer in the world! They not only carry fashion apparel but also handbags, shoes, jewelry and tons of more accessories to fit any fashionista's needs.

Now that we're gearing up towards the holiday season, I wanted to find a bright red winter coat. I love this one I got from vipme.com, the slits and cut of the coat is amazing and I love the material too as it's slightly fuzzy (50% mohair). What's great about this coat is not just its vibrancy, but that it's an amazing day-to-night coat.

You can style it casually as I did here with a white knit sweater, slightly distressed denim and black criss-cross pumps. To make the day look a tad chicer, I also added pearl earrings and a Pom Pom black handbag. This red coat would also be fantastic paired with a holiday sequin dress or any kind of wintry evening look. How would you guys style this coat at nighttime?

Lastly, you can use my code, 'Suzanne379' to get $5 off your purchase of any order over $50!
