Photos and thoughts on fashion, beauty, tech + city living.
The weather’s been really incredible lately! I only wore my jacket for about three seconds in the sun before I got too hot. It’s so nice to have this little bit of warmth in December. January and February are dreary months, especially in New York (the wind!).
I’m wearing my Simply Vera by Vera Wang for Kohl’s jacket, Ann Taylor shirt, Gap skirt, MIA shoes, and Coach bag.
My name is Alex and I have been blogging in some form or another since 1998. I’m a former Manhattanite now living the quieter life in Brooklyn. I like outerwear and red lipstick.
When I was younger, I was let loose in a GAP Kids one too many times, resulting in many of the fashion choices you see here in my photos. I also read, traveled, and took cooking and art classes. Art eventually led me around to photography, and to this day I do enjoy a good brunch.
Thank you for visiting! I hope you'll stay a while and get to know me. Learn More →
This is so lovely, the skirt is fantastic.
I love the little hint of sparkles in the outfit! The scenery behind you is gorgeous, too. Hope you had a great new year!
Happy New Year! The lake is a great place for photos, but when it’s cold there it’s cooooold hahahaha.
That looks really pretty, and I do love bare legs and short sleeves in december!
who knows, maybe it will turn out to be the mildest winter ever.
That would actually be nice! I love snow, so I’d rather have a full on blizzard than a few inches here and there like we’ve been having the past few years. Though I wouldn’t say no to bare legs either!
Thanks for the note Alex! I love your skirt and top. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year to you too!
Happy New Year Alex Elizabeth! I love your skirt and also no jacket required in NYC? NICE….it was quite cold in Chicago all week!
Ahhh no, but I wish! I went south for the holidays. This is North Carolina.
loving the silhouette of that skirt lady…BEAUTIFUL!
If I come across any petite cut leather jackets, I will DEF let you know!
Happy New Year!

I love that this isn’t a pencil skirt, although I’ve been searching for one of those too. Thanks for keeping an eye out for me!
Lovely look! The skirt is a really great piece! You look adorable in this monochromatic look! :)
Good luck, and have a very Happy New Year!!!
