POSHEstyle: NYFW - Shades of Love

Valentine's Day is suppose to be all warm and fuzzy, right? Well, in NYC this past one was cold and icy! Nonetheless, it is all about what's on the outside, and the record low chilly temperatures didn't stop the heat from turning up for many ;) I spent my day doing something that I LOVE...getting lost in next season's collections and falling madly in love with a few hot thangs.

This red and plum combo had me feeling all kinds of "lovie-dovie" - too bad I didn't exactly have a special someone to be all mushy with - but I did get some gorgeous roses from an admirer, and they were a warm surprise after a frigid day. I'm a big romantic, and though it may sound cliche, I love the idea of so much love floating in the air :)

A long maxi skirt with an oversized sweater is one of the chicest combos a woman can wear. It's feminine and effortless, and can work casually with flats or sneakers, or dressed up with heels. Pleats have been a big trend for fall/winter, and so has this maroon/burgundy color, so it's double touch point with this beauty from Anthropologie.

A red/burgundy oversized Missoni sweater broke the monotone color when layered with this faux leather moto jacket from Hou5e Boutique. If you don't own a moto jacket as yet, it's a must for every closet - trust it opens a world of style possibilities. You can wear anything, add a moto jacket and it's instantly cool.

I love when shoes are a work of art and these Monika Chiang mohawk pumps are no disappointment. The color, gold accents and unique feature make it quite a standout. Other final details to my NYFW "Shades of Love" look included a Mansur Gavriel coin purse that doubles as a clutch - now that's something that makes my heart smile :)

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!"

POSHEstyle: Mod Inspired + Thigh High Boots

How do you wear thigh high boots running from show to show during NYFW?? First step - make sure they are comfy!

After closing down and taking a break, Monika Chiang is back with a focus on shoes. These boots were a score from her previous collection and I am obsessed with them. The lace-up design at the back keeps them snug on my slender legs, and the height is perfect with a little dress or equally chic with a pair of jeans. Thigh high boots are a "must-have" for fall with suede styles taking the lead roll, but leather is never far behind.

This season is all about retro references, and the moment I saw this Zara dress I thought 60s mod. The shift cut, geometric print and peter pan collar were no brainers for this look.

I added a pop of the season's "it color" burgundy with a H&M fedora and Sephora lip color in rouge. I rarely wear a dark lip but when I do, I gotta admit, I feel a little like a kick-ass vixen. POW!

The final touches: a Versace marble sunnies, Chanel J12 watch and Chanel Classic handbag pulled the mod look together, making me a happy wannabe Twiggy for the day :)
