Green & White















Hello girls! Week is almost over! So I am doing another post about H&M items today. I had bought so many cute things so I wanted to share before they are gone! If you've read my prior posts, you will know that green is my favorite color! When I saw this blouse in this beautiful Emerald color I knew I had to have it! I also saw this blazer and I am definitely a blazer queen....I have like 10! But I didn't have a white one and I love how it contrasted against the green top. I also love how it's cut and how the sleeves are scrunchy....yes...I did not push them up...that is how they come. Ha! These heels from DSW I have been wearing non-stop. I love the grey and how much they actually go with. Also, the close up of the necklace I'm wearing is from Chloe & Isabel.

A little sparkle and wine













Happy Tuesday!
So for this post I'm doing a little recap. My friend and I went to Croteaux Vineyards in Southold. I absolutely love this place and need to go back again! I took some pictures, but have to admit I'm wishing they came out a little better. Lighting was a little tough with the sun/shade and since it's very small, it was hard not to get people in the shots as it was very busy there. Besides that, I just love the whole atmosphere. It's like you are in a little secret garden. It was just so cozy and cute. I like that it's not a huge place with 100 people there. It's very relaxing. 

 First we ordered the French sparkling pink lemonade. OMG!! I am obsessed! This was hands down the best lemonade I've ever had. It's just that delicious. We each bought another bottle to take home. (And they are not sponsoring me so this is just my opinion). A majority of the time when I have lemonade, it will bother my teeth (FYI-I have sensitive teeth) and they will start to hurt or make it difficult to chew anything after. Weird? IDK--does anyone else have that issue??? Moving on.... they served it in those cute mason jars with the adorable paper straws. How freaking cute is that! We also ordered a little snack which you see in that pic. Almonds, dried apricots, bread sticks, and four different types of cheeses. Delicious!!!

Then we ordered a tasting of their sparkling wines which came with three different types. I mentioned in a prior post that I'm not much of a wine drinker as I haven't found a wine I like...yet...I'm still trying. Must be something off with my taste buds! Ha! I feel like everyone in the world likes wine except me! Anyone else not like wine??? Or what is your recommendation of a wine for someone like me? I like sweet things so I have been trying the sweet kinds. Is that good? Bad? Let me know! I would have to say they weren't too bad. I think I kind of liked the last one I tried which is the one in the glass I'm holding. If you look at the picture of the menu of wines, it is the last one. The 'Jolie' Cabernet Franc Rose. And how gorgeous are those wine bottles!! I think I may just buy a bottle so that I have it. It's just too pretty. Oh, and I bought that glass I'm holding too! lol 

Next, on to the jewelry. That necklace and bracelet/ring is from Chloe and Isabel. I have bought a lot of stuff from them and have loved every item. Again, they are not sponsoring me either so everything I say is my opinion. And just to put it out there, when I do work with a brand, I will definitely state that in my post. Now, I have a specific girl (Hello Rachael Davey!) that I go to when I want to order something. I believe that when you want to purchase something, you will be connected to someone that is in your area like she is to me. They have such beautiful pieces so I recommend checking them out! 

Hope everyone is have a great week!

Work Style








Hello Everyone! Almost mid-week! Yay! As you can see I am adding more content to my blog. Please be patient with me! :) This is new to me so I am slowly learning how it all works and what to add. The pages up top are new but need to be filled in. Don't worry-they will!

Ok so I work full time as a senior credit analyst until hopefully one day this blog will be my full time job. :) I don't work directly with customers as they are scattered throughout the U.S. so this is why I get to wear jeans at work. Yay! I love jeans so you will see me in a lot of them. I love to dress them up with blazers, also another fave of mine! It is so easy to wear even a basic T-shirt or tank top underneath and dress it up with heels and jewelry. Most of my blazers come from H&M as I feel they have a great selection and the fact that I can always find one any time of the year! Plus their prices are great! I have quite a few but I am on the hunt for a red or burgundy one and a deep green.


Jeans - Paige Skyline Boot size 26 (bought from Bevello)
Blazer - H&M size 4 (no longer available) similar here  and here
Shirt - H&M size 4 although I could have probably gone up a size as it fits me tight in the upper arm area - similar here
Belt - Banana Republic  comes in black too! I have both as I love them so much!
Sunglasses - Bought from a car show (love cars but more on that later) for $10!
Bag - was a gift from 8 years ago! Sorry! Dooney & Bourke
Necklace - Chloe & Isabel (Limited Edition)
Shoes - Although not shown (my mistake-sorry!) Audrey Brook/DSW (not exactly the same ones but almost identical and it is the same name) Comes in black too!
Scarf - old

Thanks for reading!
