Thanks to a new blog I follow I found Emerson Fry clothing! They make clothes that are totally my style - skinny jeans, sweaters, cool coats! Perfection. I am particularly taken with the Gusset Coat, Single Welt Coat, Mick Pant, various colors of the Raglan Crewneck Sweater, and the Big Knit Sweater. Anyone want to get them for me as a belated birthday present? ;)

Last week I had the pleasure of attending an intimate get together at Marshall's #FabFound Loft in New York City. A couple of the other girls from Project Fab were there as well so it was great getting to meet them!  For the event I decided to wear pieces that I bought at Marshalls, everything from my shoes to my bag (and even my wallet!)

To put a long story short - Marshalls rented a loft in Soho for a few months this year and decked it out with designer clothes from Marshalls. Even the furniture and decorations are from the store. So, basically, everything you see here was purchased for far less than retail value at Marshalls. 

One of my favorite things about Marshalls is each store is different.  I can go to 3 different ones in my area and, while there will be some pieces that are the same throughout, there are always some unique pieces.

They even had a "Pinterest wall" where we could create outfits. I helped out Tracy (one of the PR girls for Marshalls) with her board, you can see it below.

It was so much fun looking through all the gorgeous pieces. I was particularly taken with a muubaa leather jacket that was 50% off the retail price. And there was also a gorgeous blue couch I wanted to take home with me (seen above.)

Today is my 25th birthday! I'm now 1/4 century old, time sure does fly. I was going to take the day off from work, but something came up so I'll be working a half day from home.  After that I will probably do nothing, watch some movies and then I'll go home to my parents for dinner and cake.




No, it's not Friday yet, but I'm doing This Week in Fashion a day early this week. You'll see why tomorrow (or some of you may already know.) It was back to the office for me after a week and a half working at home. While I enjoyed being back, I did miss my sleep, I had gotten used to getting up hours late last week. Depressing.

Last night I went to a fun event hosted by Marshalls in NYC, I'll post more about it next week. Today I'm going out to lunch with some old friends, should be a nice change to get out of the office during lunch. I usually just eat my sandwich at my desk because I'm too cheap to buy lunch every day.

I wore this super comfortable look to go out to dinner with one of my best friends last Friday.  I am going to have to force myself to not wear this Phillip Lim for Target sweater all the time, although not sure why that would be a totally bad thing. I should just give my many other sweaters some time in the spotlight, after-all, I love them too. What drew me to the sweater was the fun jeweled detailing on the collar (obviously.)

Today also happens to be my Mom's birthday! Yayyy! Sadly I won't be able to go home for dinner with the family because I have an event to go to with Marshalls. I'll just have to give her the awesome present I got her tomorrow.

I've had these photos saved for a couple months and am finally posting them...better late than never, right!? Anyway, Oasis and Warehouse both have amazing lookbooks for this Autumn/Winter season.  I definitely have my eye on a bunch of the pieces. What do you think? I'm smitten with all the outerwear, so many gorgeous coats and jackets.

Capes, purple and cashmere. Put them together and you have one of my new favorite pieces! I scored this cashmere cape at Roundabout Resale on Saturday! I went in just planning to look around and spotted some purple in the clearance section, pulled it out and was greeted by this amazing cape!  It was only $35, must be the fates telling me it had to be mine. I had been on the hunt for an affordable cape for a couple years and finally the fashion planets aligned to find my perfect match. I think I've found my new Fall weekend outfit.

Earlier this week I received an awesome name necklace from O Necklace! I have been wanting a name necklace for a while and they have so many styles to choose from, I ended up deciding on the 24k gold plated Alegro style. It is the perfect size and the chain is durable but dainty at the same time. I'm a sucker for packaging so I really enjoyed the textured gift box the necklace came in. (see more photos of the necklace and box at the bottom of the post)
