POSHEstyle: GingHam Romper & Letting Go

It's crazy to think we are already half way through the year, and summer is quickly making it's way to "until next time!" This year, so far - has been one of changes and transitions - some exhilarating, and some exasperating. But, one thing has kept me true to my resilience - and that is - letting go!

Last year, this time, I had moved into my new apt in FiDi a few months prior; I had just launched my swim brand - LAPOSHE - my blog was really starting to grow, and I was about to embark on the different, but exciting territory of the real estate business. But, through all these promising accomplishments, I was struggling to keep my smile up and the tears away - because, I was simultaneously experiencing a plato of emotional turmoil and confusion from having my ex - and my heartbreaker - back in my life after 4 years.

It was through that struggle, that I realized how crucial my emotional health is to my productivity - and though I was still pushing myself to achieve my goals - I could see them suffering. I lost momentum and consistency, I couldn't focus, and I was completely distracted. But, sometimes you need your kryptonite to remind you just how strong you really are, and how far you've come.

And then...this year happened...and I made a promise to "let it go" and accept that not everything is meant to be, and that's ok! We can't steer someone else's destiny, we can only captain our own - it's ok to choose YOU! That lead me to where I am now - a new chapter, new neighborhood, new apt - filled with positivity, living in the moment, enjoying life, and feeling very optimistic and excited for what's to come :)

Ok, ok...enough of my personal life banter...lets talk a little fashion and a lot of style. Gingham has been the biggest trend this season, and this Zara romper from 2 years ago was conveniently in my closet waiting for its perfect debut. The streets and modern architecture of my old neighborhood downtown was the perfect backdrop for this clean, structured and chic look. The classic accessories - Chanel bag, Chanel J12 watch, Chanel oversized sunnies and Louboutins - transformed what may be "trendy" right now into what will be "timeless" forever.

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: NYFW Day2 - All Leather Romper + Thigh High Boots

Officially my first day at the Mercedes Benz tents (second for NYFW) and I'm already feeling nostalgic. Over the past few seasons I've covered multiple shows as the Fashion Editor for Triple The Focus magazine, and had the experience I always imagined before moving to NYC. I've heard many talks about the great times at Bryant Park, and with Sex and the City being an all time favorite, I can surely respect that; but Lincoln Center gave me my first fashion week high and for me it will always be home.

On my second day I was scheduled to see MONGOL and Mark & Estel (reviews of all the shows will be in the next issue of the magazine and I will post each here as well). Outfit planning this season was a challenge with the brutally cold weather but fashion always prevails no matter what! (click images to expand)

I decided to do a rocker-chic look this day; ready for Fashion Week domination. I bought these amazing Monika Chiang leather thigh high boots before my month long vacation in the tropics, so I was aching to wear them. As we all know thigh high boots are having a major moment this Fall/Winter season. I paired them with a leather romper from Forever21, a classic ripped knit turtleneck sweater from the New York & Company and an edgy leather moto vest by 6 Shore Road. The look was accessorized with a pair of Ray-Bay wayfarers, an ASOS beanie, Moschino leather belt, Bulova watch and Gucci Soho Disco bag. My vintage SAKS Fifth Avenue fur coat was the final piece for a fashionable but functional, freezing second-first day.
