"No elegant woman follows fashion slavishly." -Christian Dior

I FINALLY got a pair of Tory Burch flats! The things in this post are partially my holiday gifts from my parents, but I picked them out so I asked to photograph them before they get put away for New Years. :) (In most Slavic countries, New Years is celebrated like Christmas, and we still do this even though we live in NYC - we put up a tree for New Year's and get presents at midnight.)

I've been wanting Tory Burch flats for a while but I didn't really feel like saving up for them. I figured I'd eventually be able to find a pair for less, and voila! I got these for $45 :)

Then, I got this amazing cardigan from Juicy Couture. It was $28 and I absolutely am in love with it. It has these amazing little crown buttons, and it has an argyle diamond pattern with alternating colors (I don't know if that makes sense lol). I spotted it because of the sleeves - they were sticking out from the rack and they were so adorable!

The next item is also from Juicy Couture - it's a sweater. This was $9.25. :)

Finally, I got this blouse from Milly for $30. It's ruffle-y and earthy and fabulous.

This last item wasn't a gift, but rather something that I bought myself. It's a light Burberry scarf that's perfect for spring/summer and matches my new Tory Burch flats. It has shades of green, pink, orange, and purple in the Burberry print, but it's mostly white. It was $42 but then it was half off and I paid $21.



My mom also gave me this adorable little monkey from TY and OPI's Midnight in Moscow. I'm a bit disappointed by the nail polish though; I think I'll be sticking to Chanel from now on. =/


Also, hooray for cupcakes and carrot cake! Lol.
