I've been so into boyfriend style button down tops. I think they have such a chic look to them while staying incredibly comfortable. You can pair them with denim pants with heels/boots when it's cooler and distressed shorts with gladiator sandals in the warmer months. 

How was y'alls weekend?? We just had a coffee shop/bakery open up right behind my house and they have the best reese's cup cookies on earth. I have a feeling this is going to become one of those situations where they know my face and my order off the top of their heads. Oops!

Have I talked about how much i'm obsessed with the color Cobalt?! I feel like I have, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it again (; It is one of my favorite transition colors because it has that pop but it can be worn in every season. It also helps that my name is very close to the color's name; therefore, I declare it my color ha!

If you told me to pick my top two favorite items in my closet one of them would be a blazer. I reach for one probably 4-5 days out of the week. My co-workers joke that when they wear blazers they dressed like Catharine that day. Blazers are just so easy to style, and they amp up an outfit like a snap of your fingers. They're also really helpful for someone who is always cold like myself. 

Happy Friday! I hope you all have the best weekend. Thanks for reading! xo

I've been dying to find a hat like this, but I wasn't willing to spend $50 or more for it knowing I wasn't going to be able to wear it all the time. Last week I stopped by South Shore Plaza and into H&M. They had a pretty decent selection and all for $30 or under (hallelujah!). So needless to say I was at the register once I found this one.

One of the things I told my dad when we moved up to Cape Cod was that by the time we moved again I would like to know Boston/my favorites in the city. I was so excited to add something to that list on Saturday: the North End Park. Come spring and summer it's such a relaxing area with the swings and a pastry in hand after a day of shopping on Newbury Street.

Do any of you have a favorite spot in a city? If so, I wanna know so I can visit haha! xo

Even though this was a few weekends back I wanted to post a Weekend Wear anyway, because these are a few of my favorite pieces. Saturday I wanted to dress comfy and within the dress code of both my jobs. That was the day the first blizzard hit. I forgot to bring another pair of shoes and I wasn't expecting the weather to be as bad as it was; however, I'm happy to report that my booties survived trekking through a boot of snow.  But thankfully I found out I got my money's worth out of them, ha!

Sunday was just a lazy/sick/recover from the blizzard kind of day. I've loved the sweatshirts that look like they have a hood but they don't. Basically they are cowl neck with drawstrings. I have found a few that are either out of stock in my size or overpriced. I ran into Gap and found this one on the clearance rack. I'm not crazy about the print on it but at least it has something to do with traveling!

Trench coats have quickly become one of my favorite things. The dream is to own a classic Burberry. However, savings is going towards traveling for now haha (; I found this one at Forever 21 for around $30 a few months back, so I wasn't able to find it online for y'all, sorry! ASOS, Nordstrom, & Forever 21 are your best bets if you're shopping for a trench coat while staying within a budget. 

Currently in a hiccup here, aka i'm snowed in due to a blizzard and I just got an email that Kate Spade is having yet another surprise sale. Send help soon!! You can shop the surprise sale here! The totes, jewels, wallets/travel wallets, and passport holders are my favorite!
