While cleaning out my closet, I came accross these old Tommy Hillfiger camoflage pants. I decided to try them on and style them, sort of a challange to myself. This is what I came up with and it stuck. What does everyone else think, should we bring camo back?

Happy Friday! I am very excited to have a low key relaxing weekend. It is supposed to snow in Boston tomorrow which puts a damper on my morning plans, but (and thats a big but) I don't mind. There is something about how the snow can get in the way of your life and slow you down, force you to stay in and relax or just get things done around the house. This is one of those times that I need it. Enjoy your weekend fellow fashionistas! Check back for a midweekend update :)

The weather in New England has been such a tease. We have days that at in the high 50's and it feels like spring is on its way- and then there are days, like today, when it is in the low 30's. This is my way of hoping for spring while staying warm- wear those beautiful spring pastel colors in wool!

a picnic in pumps

I love the dressy casual rivalry going on with this outfit. It feels very chic but still very 'kick of your shoes and run through the grass in your bare feet.' All it's missing is a picnic basket with some homemade goodies (and maybe a handsome man to share the goodies with.) Agreed?

Stolen Inspiration yet again! I recently saw atlantic-pacific post this. A few days later I went thrift shopping and stumbled upon this pink Limited blazer. Thus, we get another copy cat look. Thanks for the inspiration Blair!

These are the products I live by. Currently, I am trying a new Vitamin C serum that a friend of mine turned me onto by ultraceuticals and so far I love it. My skin is extremely sensitive and I have no irritation from it (yet). What are your beauty must haves?

I also wanted to share this little tid bit of inspiration.
