Funky Finds



Vintage leather jacket from Top Shop. Found it at Beacons Closet in Brooklyn. ($25)



Wore this number out on New Years Eve in Miami. It's from Yesderdaze in Tampa, FL. ($60)



Red Boots have been on my radar for a couple of months now, and I found the perfect pair atBeacon's Closet. (a steal at $35) The studded boots were a Christmas Present from my mom, they are by Sam Edleman. ($250)



This retro top was a gift from my best friend Meghan. (I'm guessing $4)



Last but not least, the most adorable shorts known to man. Found them at a goodwill in Tallahasse, they were super long so I hemmed them. ($5)

Back to Basics



Love my black lace turtle neck, definitely has a feminine vibe to it.






This is faux suede BCBG jacket is my FAVORITE! It can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion. ($250-70, depending if BcBg is having a sale or not)






Ohh these are my little babies, made by Dolce Vita. ($145)


Every closet needs some basics! They are the foundation for any outfit, there will always be something to wear!

Michael Pollan




So, I've been waiting to finish the book before I posted about it, but it's just too good! For my Food & Environment class, we are assigned to read Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan. It's actually our textbook for the course, and it's incredible. We have read a couple of chapters each week so far, and it's already changed everything I think and feel about the current Agricultural system. The way our culture eats and how it's vastly changed within our generation, causing massive epidemic of new diseases and environmental issues. Farming isn't something we talk about in everyday conversation-right? Yet it's what we depend on to live & breathe everyday.


I'm not going to give a description of the book nor my opinion yet, I'll wait until I'm done with class and inform you later. The book itself is an easy read, Pollan makes a stiff subject intriguing to learn about. If this caught your attention, read it! It will honestly change your life!
