SNOW WHITE

In New York there is a very small window after it’s first snowed that the city is beautifully blanketed in white (soon after it turns to slush but that’s a story for another day) – and on Saturday morning Adam and I caught it just in time.

THE RIGHT DIRECTION

It’s been awhile since I’d gone vintage shopping, but since I had the extra time over the long weekend I popped into one of my favorite neighborhood spots (No Relation in the East Village if you’re a local!) and got lucky with this button front plaid mini skirt for only $5! The cashmere sweater is vintage too and since I was on a roll I paired them with this faux fur coat and sparkly pin that all together gives off a sort of early-sixties meets Old Hollywood vibe.

The Steele Maiden: Loft color block shirt with J.Crew camel coat and pom beanie
I like a bold pair of heels and a party skirt as much as the next girl, but the real heroes of my closet are the basics I can wear again and again. This camel coat is a Winter life-saver (extra warm and in a goes with everything color).  Underneath I kept things simple with these thick ponte knit leggings in navy, a color-blocked oxford shirt and cozy boyfriend cardigan. Perfect for a trip to one of my favorite little local cafes. If you’re going basic though, make sure you don’t blend in. This vintage bag, fur pom beanie and ombre sunglasses were an equal match for the quirky charm of our neighborhood.

The Steele Maiden: Valentine's Day outfit with Loft polka dot blouse
We’re still a few weeks away, but after my Mom sent me candy hearts last week (thanks Mom!) I’m officially in the Valentine’s Day spirit. I know this ‘holiday’ tends to be a bit of a touchy subject for some people – but honestly who can’t find someone they want to share a little extra love with? Some of my favorite Valentine’s have been with my girlfriends, making homemade cards for eachother, getting manicures, or grabbing drinks. So the first Valentine-ready look I’m sharing is one that’s fit for a girl’s night out. A polka dot blouse, statement necklace and killer heels? Better than red roses any day in my book.
