Wednesday is the best day

The other day I was going out with a friend. It was pretty casual and the weather was a bit cooler than it has been so I wore a plain black t shirt dress, black tights, black ankle boots and threw on a over-sized black cardigan. I was running behind so I didn't bother with any accessories like I usually so aside from my bag(that was red) I was header to toe in black. When I got to the car I heard "You look like Wednesday Addam's". It was really the first time in a while that I had to think about my obsession with black clothes.

I have always been a big fan of black. My entire wardrobe consists mainly of black with a dash of navy and grey here and there. Most of my color comes from my accessories which are often quite bold so I always felt it evened out.

The truth is I LOVE Wednesday Addam's. I wanted to be her when I was a kid and honestly I still do so I'm already certain this fall with consist mainly of black shift dresses, black tights, and some comfy black sweaters. But I will be adding pops of color with scarves, headbands, bags and jewelry as usual.
Now it's time to hunt for some great scarves and accessories to go. But tell me...what is your ideal look for fall right now?

Best of the week - #1

I decided to do a weekly thing where I'll post my favorite pics from the editorials that come out so I don't drown you all in 50 editorials each week. There are probably a million different reasons why I like these but I think I'll just shut up and let the photos speak for themselves.

Fall is always the best time for editorials. Also...fashion week approaches for NYC...

Grey skies are pretty too

I have a new obsession...matte grey nails. Grey is already being talked about as a new fall color and I agree...mostly. I'm way over metallic nail polish. I even tossed some of my older bottles and my collection of thick matte polish in every color is growing quickly (my new favorite being this gorgeous coral from Essie).

Sadly for me, I have yet to get my hands on a matte grey locally(the joy of being in the middle of nowhere) so after hunting the net for the best greys I found this great guide to grey nail polish and I settled on "Recycle" from China Glaze.

Of course knowing me I'll probably pick up a few more colors while I'm at it. I'm thinking seafoam, maybe pretty purple. You can never have too many options!

wham bam, coco and stam

My favorite Canadian girls both have some beautiful spreads coming out. Jessica Stam did a shoot for latest edition of Vs. It just shows how captivating she really is. It's in black and white and all she is wearing is jewelry. Even in black and white her eyes pop.

Coco Rocha also has a new spread for Vogue Mexico which is inspired by Coco Chanel and also seems to have a strong focus on bold jewelry. These are two girls who can make a very simple concept interesting.
