Weekend Wear: Blending In
Shirt: T by Alexander Wang (similar style here) | Shorts: Zara | Shoes: Soludos | Sunglasses: Aldo |
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff
Saturday I felt one with the Brooklyn brownstones and the nature scene of the streets. This weekend was super low key. Spent Saturday roaming around Brooklyn running errands and then got together that night for drinks with my gym crew. Sunday was spent recovering some said drinks. Getting old means not being able to drink like you use too.
How was your weekend?

Outfit Post: Another Off the Shoulder Look
the husband and I took a trip to Red Hood this weekend as his artwork is in a show over there. It was a damp day but I just couldn't take not dressing up. I had lived in sweaters and uninspired looks all week, I also just couldn't wait any longer to break out this off the shoulder top. As I told you, I can't get enough of this style. I love how casual yet dressy they can be.

Weekend Wear: Camo Style
Shoes: Oscar De La Renta (sample sale) | Bag: c/o Rebecca Minkoff | Sunglasses: Feather's Boutique
This week has been so dark and dreary...I was totally not feeling it nor was I feeling inspired at all. The sun finally broke through on Sunday to make a much needed appearance. I finally got to break out my Oscar De La Renta flats that I bought from a recent sample sale for $75! When I saw them I knew I couldn't pass on them...plus they are just perfect to through in my bag for Paris and Florence. I love the balance of feminine pieces and tomboy in this overall easy breezy look.
How was your weekend?

Outfit Post: Black & White with a Pop of Color
Scarf: c/o Ann Taylor (old but similar style here and here) | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff | Sunglasses: Brooklyn Flea Market
I've noticed that I've been wearing a lot of monochrome colors....and that I might own one to many striped tops. To add a little more Spring feeling to these typical New Yorker looks I added a colorful scarf from Ann Taylor (love this vibrant scarf as well) and a pop of color in the shoes (like these and these). Adding pops of colors through accessories can make the most mundane look vibrant. The bonus of being able to use accessories like scarves and shoes to add pops of colors is that this could be used on any looks from something very casual like my look to a business suite.
How do you add pops of colors in your look?

Fitness 101: From the Studio to the Street
Vest: Ivy Park | Bra: Good Hyouman | Pants: c/o Onzie | Sneakers: c/o Under Armour (similar style here) |
Sunglasses: Ray Bans | Yoga Bag: Lululemon
When it comes to workout clothes I like to have variety, as I do lots of different workouts from high to low impact training. For my everyday workouts, which are high intensity training, I would never just wear a sports bra or cropped top- as for me that is something I would never feel comfortable wearing at the gym. For my high impact days I stick to the usual compression pants (or shorts) and a tank top. But when it comes to yoga (especially hot yoga) it's a different story. In this studio space I feel more comfortable wearing just a light impact bra (like this one from Good Hyouman) and compression pants. Plus, when I'm in a room that is cranked up to 90 degrees I don't want a shirt or anything else sticking to me. That's why lately I've been collecting a lot of to-and-from the studio space clothing, like this vest from Beyonce's line Ivy Park. This collection actually has a lot of great to-and-from pieces. I even bought this cropped top, though I haven't worn it yet but thought would be great for not only the studio but for an athelisure look as well. I like pieces that are street ready with an athelisure look to.
Do you have different work out clothes for different style workouts?
Here are some other Ivy Park items I have been eyeing up as well:
