What I’m Wearing: Stripes + Sequins
What better way to dazzle a weekday than with champagne-colored sequins?
I picked up this BB Dakota jacket at Lori’s last month and I’ve been wearing it non-stop ever since. The sequins have some serious staying power (hope I didn’t just jinx myself!), and the taupe-tinted chiffon lining lends a really feminine finish.
Another thing? I actually have really short legs. For that reason, these jeans are uh-mazing. And on sale.
I have no regrets paying full price for this piece, but luckily for you, it’s on sale at Lori’s! If your size is sold out, try Zappos, Need Supply or Lulu’s. Happy Shopping!
Wearing: BB Dakota jacket, Joe’s Jeans, Banana Republic tank (similar), H&M ring (similar), Francesca’s double-finger ring, necklace c/o Lori’s Shoes, Essie Smokin’ Hot nail polish

Love your manicure and the jacket is gorgeous! I am a big fan of flared jeans lately too for that same reason!!
From one petite girl to another… Thanks, Kimberly!
Love this! And especially those accessories! I want them. By the way, I’m glad that making the switch worked out well for you. Your blog looks awesome!

Thanks, Sarah! If you ever want to make the switch, I’m happy to help. It was a process to say the least, but this tutorial really helped: http://www.beautifully-invisible.com/2010/11/introduction-so-you-want-to-leave-blogger-for-wordpress.html

Thank you, Kate! So happy to see you’re sticking with blogging this year so far I love seeing NYC through your lens! x
Ha I’m SO glad you listed your nail polish because I was going to ask! I saw it done similarly on Cupcakes and Cashmere but couldn’t quite figure out what brand she used. So that’s Essie? I tried that in Ulta but it didn’t look as good as yours…perhaps I will try again! And you’re right, those jeans are amazing - you look six feet tall
Yes! The nail polish is Essie Smokin’ Hot - it’s my favorite winter-weather polish. has a purple-ish tint to it. Thanks for taking the time to comment, Nicole Let’s get together soon!
Okay so I thought you meant the glitter was Smokin’ Hot - but that’s the base color (although I do like that as well ! What’s the glitter? And yes, let’s - I read in one of your posts about your blog cleanup and was reminded that I NEED to do that, too! Email me with your availability sometime soon!
GEEEEE, I noticed your long legs and then your comment. REALLY? I need those jeans, pronto!
YES! You of all people, my fellow petite friend Love them! With platforms - seriously. You can do no wrong! xo
So pretty! And, yeah… those jeans make your legs look a MILE LONG!!
Girrrrrrrl… Don’t be fooled. Thanks for commenting! xo
Love that jacket!
Thanks, Ashley! It’s actually super comfortable - the chiffon lining is key
Absolutely lovely outfit, darling. You look absolutely stunning. Maybe I’ll see you walking around Chicago at some point this winter?

So before reading your comment, I was looking at the pictures thinking - ‘these jeans make her legs look incredibly long. I had no idea she had such long legs’ and then I come to find out it is the miracle of the jeans. Love them!! - Katy
