Cheap-o








Sydney: Joie Dress, Rubbish shirt, Sam Edelman Shoes (Thank you, KV), Purse from China Town, Michael Kors Watch, Swarovski ring

So I am really cheap. I really like it when I don't have to spend a lot of money. Sometimes I think this is probably annoying for people, but whatever - long hair don't care, please see the above dress which I picked up at a recent Joie sample sale for all of $25. When you are 24yo living in Manhattan, cheap is all you can afford. So lets not stop at the dress, folks. Please also see the above purse. Thanks to a recent long weekend in which our photographer and I found ourselves confused as to what to do with our extra day of freedom, I found myself in China Town looking for who knows what when I stumbled across this purse in one of the standard China Town bodegas. "Louis Vuitton, Chanel" the aggressive man yelled at me. But no, I didn't need his scary back room purses. I saw this bad boy hanging, brand free, and I knew it was fate. "Um, I don't know, sir, but how much is this one?" "Ummm $20," he sweetly replied. I knew I could negotiate, but I was lazy. "Well, alright cool I want it," I said, and then it was mine.  Point is, if you are committed you can find some really cool stuff for cheap, and that's great news for those of you like me who like the finer things but don't feel like paying for them (awkward wink + thumbs up ). K cool, peace out!

Snakeskin







Amy: Nasty Gal crop top, Nanette Lepore skirt, Kelsi Dagger shoes

Between summer and my new found Nasty Gal obsession, I can't stop with the crop tops. I think it is just the right amount of sexy when paired with something high-waisted. I purchased this skirt when I was in the Hamptons and love the colorful printed snakeskin. It's just the kind of piece my wardrobe needed....considering most of my clothing is monochromatic. I'm naturally drawn to black/solids but now that summer is in full swing and the city is alive again, I needed some color in my life.

Sydney: Caycee Black dress, Chinese Laundry shoes

Amy: Nasty Gal top, Rachel Roy shorts, Forever 21 shoes

It  was the day after Governors Ball and we were sans photographer, so we decided to have a nice relaxing day in the park just us girls. NO BOYS ALLOWED. The weather was perfect and everything was so green as a result of the crazy storm that hit Friday.
