Orange is the New Black

Orange is the New Black. Definitely one of my favorite shows of the year, it's the story of Piper Chapman, a yuppy from New York who goes to jail for a drug crime she committed 10 years earlier. IN prison she has to maneuver through the highs and lows of prison life. Her first day in she has a run-in with the head of the kitchen and makes a new enemy...the stories aren't all about Chapman though, many of the episodes features a look about some of the other women and how they made it to prison. It's definitely worth a look. Check it out here.

The Run Down

Pros: Great cast, wonderful storytelling.

Cons: There are only 13 episodes!!

The PIns

zoe saldana's twist


A few of my favorites on Pinterest, pearls instantly add a touch of chic to any look, the maxi dress is all i live in during the summer, the graphic print suit is perfect for a day at the office but goes great for a night out on the town. Heels are the perfect way to dress up jeans and how great is zoe's hair? 
I spend a great amount of time pinning, liking and repinning things on Pinterest, it's actually a little addictive. Next post I'll dedicate to my favorite featured recipes. Have a lovely day!

Happy first day of June!! Can you believe summer is already here? I've made a few changes to the blog, the best part is the new banner created by my sister. Hope you guys like it!

Rihanna in Balmain

I think it's well documented that Rihanna is one of my favorite style stars. From her street style to her looks on the red carpet, she's always on point. Exhibit A: Mint leather skirt paired with one of my favorite shirts from Balmain's ss13 collection. 

Sequins for day?

Picked these up on-line at the last J.Crew sale and they are gorgeous...only problem, not sure how or where to wear them. They definitely seem more suited for the fall...but with jeans, a dress? If you guys have any suggestions please share them below. Also, Happy Monday :)

A Little Leopard

Wore this to work the other day, there's nothing like a little leopard to take the basics up a notch. I originally wore this with more favorite gold necklace, which got caught in the door at work and popped :(. Luckily, my co-worker is a genius with jewelry and fixed it for me. 

jacket: old navy (on sale here)

shirt: gap

skirt: asos (old)

shoes: nine west (similar here)
