STREET STYLE: NIKE FOR J.CREW.

Back to the grind, Valentines. I hope you are all as loved up and ready for the work week as I am. It's no secret that I am a heel girl, but I was a HUGE tomboy (hugeee) for the first half of my life, and my love for a good sneaker has never gone away. When I heard Nike was teaming up with J.Crew, I knew my debit card would be entering into crisis mode with a quickness. Add in a subtle snakeskin print? Waves. White. Flag. Here's my take on a lazy, but beautiful Sunday afternoon in West Midtown.

"The wind, you guys. Is this really necessary?" I was seriously feeling Kourt K. throughout this windblow shoot. #lipglossinhair Another disclaimer? I dribbled my spinach & feta wrap down the front of my sweater moments before we started. Not my day people, not my day. Sometimes all you need is one more coffee and everything falls into place.

HIS + HERS: VDAY GIFT GUIDE.

Hello, lover.

Are those Cardstore cards not the best? I am a sucker for a good writer, but throw in a sarcastic undertone and I will be a forever customer. Love a good card. Now that we are all fully stocked and ready to woo our significant others with gifties, I am off to fold 75 loads of laundry. Sighh. Real life is so romantic. ALSO, don't forget to enter the VDAY giveaway in the post below this one! You can enter for the next three days, so don't wait, get your win on.

PLAIDS + PLAITS.

Comin' atcha from SC tonight, frands. I am all about lumberjack chic-ness right now. It's time to #tbt, channel your inner Pippi Longstocking, and embrace the braid. This is by far the easiest look to throw together and the best part is, it's probably already in your closet…or your Dad's closet? It's fine. Wear it. I'm home for the weekend and there are 4 cats here tonight. FOUR. That is too many. To be fair, one is mine and I brought it, two are my mom's and one belongs to my cousin. Still, too many.

Are those boots not to die? Confession. I ordered them immediately after seeing Emily Maynard wear them on her season of The Bachelorette. Jef with one f's puppet date. True story, no strings attached.

FROSTING ON TOP.

So, along with my addiction to shoes, my clothing addiction and my addiction to chewable Airborne, I also have a raging addiction to statement jewelry. I have a lot of problems. It's really getting hard to keep up with all of the new news coming out this season, so I compiled a little visual wish list for reference. Anything to procrastinate my impending workout, really. Crystals > Cardio.

I just ordered #1 for an event next week, as they are currently on sale for $18. You heard me. I really can't wait to see them up close and real personal like. Also, if you don't have #4 yet, we probably can't be friends. I am obviously at least 65% kidding, but do yourself a favor and invest. Your wrist will thank you. Well friends, my weekend starts now. Nothing like a Sunday that is really your Friday. Did someone say wine?
