I've had these pants for awhile now and they are one of my favorite fun pieces to wear to work. Sometimes, my work outfits can begin to feel like a uniform and I love that patterned pants and skirts help me add a personal touch of flair to my outfits. I still don't have the mixing patterns and prints fully down (I'm working on it) so I usually pair my patterns and prints with a solid, like the black blazer I'm wearing and this silk blouse from Madewell
Read MoreI change my hair quite often, but not as often as I did when I was in my 20s and not as busy as a working professional. For the past seven months, I've been wearing longer lengths. Maybe it's the new season or maybe it's celebrating a birthday recently, but I desired a fresh new do. I went shorter, and I'm loving it.
Read MoreA little over a week ago, I turned 32. If you had asked me 10 years ago, what my life would have looked like at 32, I would have told you that I would be a career woman, a mother and a wife. By this age, I would have "had it all." (Since then, I've realized that the notion of the superwoman who has it all is nothing but a farce).

Delicious food, affordable brunch and bottomless mimosas - I made a mental note to come here for brunch more often. After brunch we spent some time outdoors enjoying the cool Fall air. We then spent the rest of the evening at Weather Up, which has quickly become one of my favorite places for cocktails and conversation in Brooklyn.
Read MoreLast week I celebrated my 32nd birthday. Birthdays mean a lot to me and I usually take time to reflect on my life, my goals, and my desires around my birthday. This birthday I felt incredibly grateful, I feel incredibly blessed in too many ways to count, and I thank God everyday for that. I remember a time in my life where I felt pressured to meet certain milestones within a specific period of time.

Read MoreThe days of summer are coming to an end, but they haven't ended yet! Yesterday we had a hot Saturday here in NYC. I wore this orange pencil dress that I ordered from boohoo.com at the beginning of the summer. Now that I am a little over 30, I gravitate toward knee length and midi dresses. I love this dress for its perfect mix of sexy and classy.
Read Morehe thing I will remember most about my trip to Edinburgh is the charm of its people. Starting with our first cab driver who gave us a layout of the city (Old Town v. New Town); the friendly local who recommended the best bus tours for first timers in the city and shared a few jokes with us; and the random stranger who offered to pay for my coffee. The heart of any city is its people and with Edinburgh, I left inspired by the kindness we experienced.
