Today, I already had my spring outfit planned, I knew exactly what I was going to wear, and I was happy with it. I AGONIZED over my professional look, and honestly left not 100% satisfied with it. So any feedback would be most appreciated.

This was my "spring" choice. It absolutely could have been my professional look, except that the shirt is see through, and I don't yet have a camisole that fits well under it.
Top-J crew
Skirt- Ann Taylor?
Shoes- Nine West

This is a variation on my originally planned professional outfit. I have 2 of the same tank, sweater set. I wanted to wear, a turquoise tank, with a black and white geometric print. I think it would have looked professional enough. However, the tank turned out to have a stain. So I tried
The purple set, which I liked, but thought was too casual.
This was what I ended up wearing. I'm worried that the whole thing is too wide. Unfortunately, tucked in it was not flattering. I LOVE the top, and the jewelery, I just which I had a narrower skirt to pair it with. Maybe I should have worn pants?

Here's today make-up's results, and I think this is my new facebook photo.

Spring Fashion Day 2

Here is my 'springy outfit'
Shirt+coat-J Crew
Shorts-Ann Taylor
Sneaks- Airwalks from Payless
Jewelry- gifts

In my professional attire for school today, I was channeling my BFF June's mother, Cathy.
She is by far the best dressed professional I know.
Plus the necklace and earings were gifts from them.

Fashion Week, Day 2

It's a rose, it's a plane, it's: my skirt!

I didn't actually wear this today, I wore it Sunday, but it still counts! Also, after taking this photo I had to photoshop my tights because our mirror is so dusty they came out looking gray. It was gross.

This is the pattern on the skirt:


Purple roses and airplanes! I love it and I feel the Ms. Frizzle (the teacher from the Magic School Bus) when I wear it.

Purple cardigan: a million years old
Skirt: GoJane.com, they have a lot of trashy club clothes and one or two really cute things.
Tights: Target
Shoes: Target, also a million years old

For those of you joining us for spring fashion week from the lovely Emeryjo's blog. Welcome. This is a style blog myself and my closest friends use to get/give advice since we are so far apart from one another.

This is my fun for spring look.

Also as those who know me are aware, I'm not a makeup person. However since relocating to the left coast, I've been trying to wear it everyday. So I hope that they appreciate that in these photos, I am wearing liquid eyeliner WHICH I applied while on the phone with Tierney!

Also one of these photos from this week is going to become my new facebook photo. Votes as to which one?

If you're interested in reading my regular everyday blog it is here.

St. Patty's Day

Actually, I do not celebrate this holiday, I just wanted to wear something to celebrate the fact that it's going to be warm and sunny tomorrow!!!

Except I don't know if this says "Awesome weather! I love spring!" or "Hey, I wanna look like my mom circa 1989!"

I need help!

Opening Night!

On Thursday I went to an opening in NYC of a show called Finn. It was at a space owned by NYU but it was an independent company. My friend from Stony Brook, McKenzie, is the assistant stage manager so she got us great seats for free! Afterwards we went to the after party on the tenth floor and it was a beautiful view, the photo really doesn't do it justice. And then after that we went to some bar near by with the cast and crew.

The show itself was dreadful - they stopped the entire thing with three minutes left to change out a microphone. Three minutes left and the stage manager comes over the speaker system that they're pausing the show. It was not necessary at all. And one of the actors kept "fixing" his lines after he said them. For example, he said "They departed...errr...they left." Why did he fix that? Same thing in my book!

The dress is from Forever 21. I got it to go to a Christmas party that was cancelled in December due to a horrible snow storm we had, so I thought it was time to break it out again. I had black flats on from Peter Harris that were patent leather and just did my usual jewelry. During the show I had a cardigan on but I thought I'd keep it off for the photo!

Love you all!
