Happy Saturday!

It's the second day of spring and let me just say, it doesn't feel or look like it at all here in New York. Yesterday, we had snow and it's been freezing; I don't remember it ever being like that in years past. It's so weird because last week had days that felt more like spring. I guess winter doesn't want to let go! With that, I've been hesitant to pack away my winter pieces, which includes my chunky cowl neck sweater I'm wearing here. Since it hasn't been that cold that I needed to wear a heavy coat, I opted for some basic layering to keep me warm. One of my favorite ways to wear a fur (faux) vest during the fall and start of spring, is to layer it over a leather jacket. It provides some dimension and of course, added warmth. I feel this look would be great for a night out on the town, if you're experiencing some colder weather, which I know many of you are; I've read some posts on Instagram! 

On another note, how awesome is the graffiti on this wall, which has such a great message, "all we got is us." It's so true. All we have in life is each other, we all need one another, yet many people tear each other down in so many ways. We can change this, though. Let's purpose to be kind and treat others how we'd like to be treated, which will then spark a change in who we meet (hopefully) and so it will continue and maybe, just maybe, the world can become a better place :)

Have a fun and chic weekend!

 

With lots of love,
