It's been freezing in NYC lately...like abnormally cold for November. A lot of people have been complaining but I honestly love this weather.

There is something so nice about walking in Manhattan, dark and cold, after work. I may be weird but I know I'm not alone in saying that I love the cold weather.

Dressing for the cold is never a problem for me...it's so much easier to just throw on a pair of jeans and boots for work than it is for me to dress for the heat.

There's also nothing nicer than having a weekend winter uniform that is so cozy and lush, you don't even want to put pajamas on.

Winter clothes are my favorite and these are some of my favorite looks, both for work and the weekend.

The countdown is really on right now; I leave for Punta Cana in FOUR days. All my clothes are purchased, packing has begun and my nail appointment has been made, now all we do is wait. It's definitely going to be a hectic week of preparing but the end result is going to be incredible.

I, like every other girl, have a lot of trouble shopping for bathing suits so this has been a long shopping process. Because I hate shopping for bathing suits and summer clothes so much, I made the odd decision to buy the same bikini in five different colors. My mom thought it was weird but I see no problem with it.

It was also a task to not overpack but bring enough clothes to satisfy my ever changing outfit moods. I haven't put together my outfits yet but in reality I need five bathing suits, five cover ups, and five night outfits. I won't be wearing much else during the day besides a bathing suit and cover up and then wearing a dress or dressy shorts at night. It shouldn't be that difficult but I'm a 21 year old girl so it is.

I also know I'm not the only one struggling with this, fess up ladies!

Here are just some ideas of what to wear on Spring Break!

For the beach, keep it simple; don't go crazy with make-up because it'll just wash off in the water or sweat it off in the sun.

For at night, I still wouldn't go crazy because it'll be hot and if you keep the accessories to a minimum, it'll be less to pack. Also, I worry way too much about my items getting stolen or my luggage getting loss.

Stay tuned for more Spring Break posts as the week goes on!

I am so excited for Thanksgiving tomorrow! It is my favorite holiday, hands down. I love the food, watching the Macy's Parade, and the weather--it's always the perfect, crisp, fall day. It's the true kick off to the Holiday season and my birthday is in three days so it's always the perfect week.

I feel as if I've come a long way in the past year, fashion wise, and I'm excited to put together my Thanksgiving outfit.

Here are some of my favorite picks:

The first day of classes is always pretty low key but also exciting because you are seeing most of your friends for the first time in months.

In college, the first week of class is dubbed syllabus week. Almost all the professors don't give you actual work on the first day, they let you get adjusted to your schedule and give you some downtime since they understand that there is a lot going on.

Since it's such a dull but exciting week so I like to be comfortable but also look my best.

Here are some different first day looks that I like:
