my Saturday pants

  "It is all too easy to let the challenges of life overpower our ability to acknowledge the good we are and the good we do." -Ardeth G. Kapp

sweatshirt: J.Crew // sweatpants: J.Crew // boots: Uggs // watch: Timex // earrings: Nordstrom

If you know me you know I am a sucker for comfy clothes ((past Casual Friday posts)) AND being a dancer.. I am pretty addicted to all types of sweats. This outfit has been worn multiple times this past week while studying, watching Conference, and going to class. I love that the Saturday pant is cute enough for everyday wear but still super comfy. (Disclaimer: I don't love these Ugg's with this outfit, at all really, BUT it was really cold out and my Sperry's just weren't cutting it.)

Taylor and I only have one week left in the city until we move back to Utah until next summer so we've been hitting up all of our favorite places for one last visit. Last weekend we had dinner on Friday night at Luce (best mushroom ravioli on the planet) and Banana Pudding from Magnolia Bakery for dessert. On Saturday we had panini's on the UWS, went to Columbus Circle for some shopping and gelato at Grom (straight from Milan - we had mint, caramel, and melon), then stopped by the UES for macarons at Laduree (straight from Paris) and relaxing in Central Park. Days like this make me never want to leave this city - it also makes me want to go back to Milan and Paris... only with Taylor this time!

boston: more gold and grey and j.crew

This outfit includes some of my very favorite pieces. Naturally anything grey and gold is my favorite. But this striped lightweight sweater is the best easy go-to piece for summer nights or fall and this gold sparkle sweater has been my favorite since I bought it back in 2010. I was IN LOVE when I saw it, still am. Worth the hefty price tag as a poor FIT student. Girls night to J.Crew at Rockefeller Center complete with Banana Pudding were the best ever! My well worn out gold metallic Sperry's and head-to-toe J.Crew make this outfit simply perfect for me. 

Happy Boston trip day THREE (visiting the GORGEOUS Harvard)

Such a beautiful campus (and business school)!

Here are my three looks from my trip to Boston. 

Day 1: Grey Sweater Dress

Day 2: Metallic Anthro Dress

A little more exciting than my DC getaway wardrobe because in Boston we actually had a suitcase! The weather was PERFECT - mid seventies. It was truly a LOVELY weekend. It is my favorite city I've visited (in the U.S. at least - Paris still tops it all). Charming and romantic.
