POSHEstyle: The HOU5E Leather Moto Jacket

A little glam, a little rock and a whole lot cozy - I'm all for it! 

This faux leather moto jacket was a Christmas gift from the 2 sisters that own HouseofFive (HOU5E) Boutique. I'm a huge advocate for supporting other young women, but this jacket speaks for itself, and needs no feminist movement behind it. It's in the color for the season, a great fit, and the quality is truly impressive. I seriously had an "Ahhh" moment when I opened the package - it's just so gorgeous!  

The poncho has been a major trend since the fall, and understandably after the severe winters we've had - who doesn't want to walk around wrapped in a warm blanket? I found this one with hints of burgundy, and the "new black" - grey, at Burlington a few months ago. It was a pretty chilly day so I layered it with a grey long sleeve top for added warmth, and by-passed the "no white after labor day" rule with these skinnies from J. Brand. 

It just happens my jacket fits perfectly with these Franco Sarto booties - quite possibly the most comfy pair I own - and adding this cute pom-pom from Zara to my Chanel Classic Flap tied the whole look together.

POSHEstyle: Herringbone & Chandrah Beads

It's the first week of 2016 and I'm starting the year off with a "go BIG or go HOME" attitude, and this outfit is the definition of a woman who is strong, confident, determined and ready to "get sh*t done!" 

Winter has officially made its appearance. January is off to a chilly start so layers on top of layers are a must. My cold season strategy is to not bulk up, but rather layer smart. I don't own a down or poofy jacket - I invest in warm fabrications like wool and cashmere. This J. Crew jacket is one such piece. Its structured clean lines are minimal and modern, the long length provides extra coverage, and the deep pockets keep blisters away. 

Herringbone is just one of those patterns that has a classic presence, it may be silent at times or trending at others - a big trend for 2015 - but never out of style. I bought this Zara turtle neck jacket on Black Friday, so it was a score.  I love when I find a piece and get super excited about all its styling possibilities and this jacket certainly gave me the jitters. 

I kept the outfit in a monotone grey on grey - my most worn shade this fall. Layering a turtleneck from Zara under the jacket for added protection around my neck, and pairing denim from Forever21.

One of my "resolution" for 2016 is to do more yoga and mediation. Living in a fast pace city like New York, it's rare that you slow down and balance yourself - it also doesn't help that I'm a gemini whose mind is always going, and who wants to do a million things at once. I received this Chandrah bracelet during the Christmas, and it's the perfect reminder that I need to make more effort to train my mind to be calmer, and more focus, so I can reach my optimal potential.  

I finished the look with my Ferragamo aviators, Chanel J12 watch, Tiffany & Co ID bracelet and these killer thigh high boots by Monika Chiang that screams "I mean business!"
