My first look for February!

Joie fur trimmed jacket, Gypsy05 scarf, Forever21 sweater and Sketchers boots (yes you read that correctly).

You can look forward to continued event and shopping coverage, but I am branching out to also bring a boutique focus to the site. All goes as planned I will provide inside peaks to local boutiques by featuring a local shop bi-monthly.

Also, as I prepare for big move myself I have began to get into interior decorating and I will share my inspirations here.
