Stylish Grown-up Backpacks

As a commuter, I know how it feels to lug multiple bags back and forth to work everyday. Although the most practical solution, I've always shied away from backpacks because of my fear of looking like a little kid waiting for the school bus. After doing a little research, I've found that there are many options out there for stylish backpacks that are suitable for grown-ups. Add a pop of color, pattern, or metallic shine to your daily look or keep it simple with an all leather option.

Boots for Spring Showers

Today's rainy Spring day in New York got me thinking about how badly I need a great pair of rain boots. With so many stylish options out there these days, it's not hard to find the perfect pair. Choose wedges or heels for height, straps or laces for a biker-boot look, or simple waterproof ballet flats for a more girly feel. Invest in a pair that is made well and they should last for many seasons and a ton of rainy days to come. Don't let a few rain drops get in the way of good style!

Casual Weekend Outfit

Anyone who as ever gone shopping with me knows that I usually shop with one thing in mind... comfort. If something is not comfortable it'll end up sitting in my closet unworn until I reluctantly get rid of it. And by comfort I don't mean that you should be wearing sweatpants and a hoodie all the time (well sometimes, but not always!). In my opinion, for clothing to truly be comfortable, it should flatter your figure, contain as much natural material as possible, and never, ever be too tight. Your wardrobe should be something that makes you feel like the best version of yourself. Here's an example of my ideal, casual weekend outfit.
