Functional Fashion

It is no small secret that I love wearing black! Black clothing, accessories, shoes, eyeliner...everything! The list just keeps going on and when I get dressed up it seems as if I am in a constant state of blending in with the night-time surroundings, just call me "night hawk" (okay, Step Brothers reference...I have watched that movie too many times over winter break). I honestly think I love black so much because it is functional. I can pair any black item with any other black item and look chic, timeless and pretty effortlessly-cool (if I do it right that is). Do you have a favorite color that you wear non-stop?
Last night I was reunited with all of my friends who I haven't seen since the end of last semester and it is funny how time can heal all wounds, broken hearts, and "major-but-not-so-major" conflicts (do you get my girl-talk?). Over a couple pitchers of white sangria, and tons of laughter and poking fun at each other we called it a night. Waking up this morning and seeing the beautiful Rhode Island sunrise reminded me of all simple but hilarious memories we made last night and it really makes me smile...it's going to be a good day! 
Last night I wore:

Blouse: Express long sleeve (silk blend), Pants: Converse for Target stretch legging, Belt: braided silver from F21, Shoes: F21 Wedge gifted from S, Watch: Michael Kors, Bracelet: H&M

Itching for a Wedge...Boot

Hi! Sorry I have been gone for so long.

Finals are over and now I can devote a lot more time to blogging (well at least for another month or so.)
It's early and obviously I am up (not dressed yet!) and searching the web for my newest craving and I know what it is...tall wedge boots in black.
I found a contender and for $79.99 I may just do it.
They are by the brand MIA. The boots are called Geva Knee High Wedges and are available in mushroom (brownish-olive) or black, personally I love the black ones!
There is something really romantic and cute about the ruffle detailing. It is different than most boots you see because of this detail yet it is not overpowering or tacky...surprising because I am not a huge-over-the-top-ruffle kind of gal!
They can be found here.


Which color would you pick out?
Be back with an outfit post later!
Right now I am going to dig into my yummy yogurt parfait and read the January issue of InStyle!
