TRENDING: PANTONE COLOR’S OF 2016

Pantone Colors of 2016: Rose Quartz and Serenity

It’s always around this time of year that shiny new Spring clothes and accessories start creeping into stores.. just when temperatures start dropping to below freezing. It’s like a cruel joke. One of the things that always helps me, is starting to work in Spring colors – in the form of a cozy sweater or even just a fresh manicure. This year, Pantone is making that easier than ever since they’ve dubbed ‘Rose Quartz’ and ‘Serenity’ the colors of 2016 (the first time they’ve ever had 2 picks!). I’m loving both of these mixed in with my predominantly neutral winter wardrobe. Rose Quartz plays nicely with grey or camel (how nice would this bag look against your winter coat?) and Serenity looks great paired casually with denim (these booties and boyfriend jeans is a winning combo). And both will likely be a much needed dose of Spring contrast against this weekend’s winter whites.. aka impending blizzard!

OFFICE STYLE: MIDI SKIRT AND NECK SCARF

Office Style in French Connection navy midi skirt and ankle strap heels

And there goes the weekend. Adam and I spent most of it relaxing, trying out a new (to us) Mexican restaurant in our neighborhood – because margaritas – and enjoying the 60 degree temps (in between downpours that is) that swept through yesterday. Since it’s supposed to be chilly again this week, I’ll be bundled up at the office in a version of this outfit that includes a few extra layers.

BURGUNDY BUTTON DOWN DRESS

This week has been a blur. Between feeling a bit under the weather in the beginning of the week and New York being under the weather in the middle of the week, it’s been hard to catch a break. So this little moment of sunshine yesterday – not to mention a new dress – felt like a much needed recharge.

RED PLAID MAXI SKIRT AND STRIPES

While I’m not over the colors of Fall (like this burgundy orange mix, shades of mustard and brown, or this navy plaid combo) quite yet.. now that it’s November and we’re moving into the true Holiday season, I’m excited to start adding a few festive pops of red to get into the spirit of things early. I figured, if Starbucks is already handing out red cups…

FALL COLORS AND PRINTS

Colorful Fall layers in Anthropologie turtleneck and dotted dress

If this little Mod dotted dress doesn’t say Fall I don’t know what does. The Seventies are huge this season, but I can never resist a bit of a Sixties reference (RIP Mad Men…). I wore this look to the office earlier this week but it would work just as well for a cocktail with the girls or a lunch date.
