Yesterday I wore this studded denim vest from Forever 21, with a ribbon-collared shirt from J. Crew and black skirt by Aqua. Originally, I was going to wear a white tee, but I decided that longer sleeves and a pale pastel would look better. I love this vest because of its light wash and toned-down embellishments. Because I wore this outfit to work, I opted for my favorite BCBG flats. A black suede or leather flip flop would be great for a less formal environment.

For work yesterday, I wore this Deletta blouse from Anthropologie, with a studded cardigan from J. Crew and black skirt from H&M. I thought the detailing on the cardigan and blouse nicely balanced the neutral color palette of the outfit. Similarly, the black BCBG flats are solid black, but hardly plain. The length of the skirt works nicely with the long sweater. Finally, my purple nail polish (Big Spender by Essie) provides the perfect pop of color!

For work today, I wore these pink skinny jeans by Rich & Skinny, with an embellished J. Crew Collection sweatshirt and striped long-sleeve tee from Kain. The long-sleeve tee adds some fun to the outfit, and the layering prevents the sweatshirt from looking too boxy. The sweatshirt can be dressed up or down, and it pairs nicely with the closely-fitted jeans. Today was super rainy in NYC, so I went with my classic black Hunter boots. My nail polish is Essie's Watermelon.

Yesterday I wore this striped dress from H&M (a great find at $15!) with a beautiful infinity scarf from Anthropologie, black leggings and Coach Martta boots. I wanted to brighten up the dark dress, and the scarf worked perfectly. Because it's an infinity scarf, it gives the outfit a very "together" look. The tightness of the dress is polished and tasteful. To finish the look, I went with this great spike ring and rhinestone earrings, both from Forever 21.
