Mad for Checks, Winter Layering in NYC

And we’re back in NYC!  Back to reality and back to the cold!

Oh boy!  Colin and I sure miss the food and weather in Morocco right now!  Even though we were in Morocco in the wintertime, it felt like autumn to us.  A cozy low 70° in the afternoon and low 60° at night.  Now, it’s a 30° hoping for no wind.  We were pretty jet lagged when we got home.  Nothing kitty cuddles couldn’t cure though!

One of the best things I’ve learned living in New York and in cold places in general is that a faux fur vest or shearling vest is a great investment (see this post Double Winter for more vest layering tips).  It doubles up as an inside or outside layering piece, and overall creates such a chic winter look.  And more importantly, it keeps you warm.  Very warm.

I’ve been searching for metallic boots for a very long time and was so happy when I saw these.  I’m usually not a glitter or metallic girl, but love love these textures for the holidays.  They just get you in the holiday mood and spirit!

Happy holidays everyone and thank you so much for reading!

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
