Steal Her Look: Jennifer Lawrence

I recently saw some paparazzi pics of Jennifer Lawrence over the past couple weeks and I've been liking quite a few of her looks. Since she has been in New York lately, the weather is very similar to that of my town. So the looks she has been wearing would work for me too. I have been taking some style tips from her and thought I'd share one of the looks with you!

A Day in New York!

My favorite place in the World! NEW YORK! I was lucky enough to have this past week off for the Holiday and even luckier got to go to NYC with my Mom!

I received the best present over Christmas; tickets to see the Broadway show Jersey Boys. I have been waiting for years to see the show and let me tell you the wait was worth it!

We took a day trip to the city on the train and saw the sights as you do.

First stop was Macy's for their Flower Show.






Next was the Show! Jersey Boys is a fabulous show. It's very fast paced, full of music, but by no means family friendly. Lots of cursing so, be fore-warned ;) We also stuck around after the show to get autographs and pictures with most of the cast! 







All in all it was an amazing day! 

Thank you,

The Fashion Tag

I thought it would be a fun idea to share some of my favorites with you in this fun questionnaire. I think this is a fun way to learn more about the different things I like and maybe discover something new yourself!

The Fashion Tag!

1. How would you describe your personal style?
Classic, Girly, and ever changing. I love the classic staples and silhouettes; however, I love adding the seasons trends into my personal style.

2. What are your wardrobe staples?
Black leggings, boots, circle or Aline skirts, and basic shirts. 

3. Most expensive item in your closet?
It’s either my Vintage Coach purse from the 1970’s or my new Kenneth Cole Down winter coat. 



4. Most wanted item?
A Chanel Classic Flap Bag. They are beautiful and something I feel will never go out of style. 



5. Favourite designer?
I don’t have just one! How can I pick? I love Oscar de la Renta, Zuhair Murad, and Elie Saab. 

6. How much do you spend on clothes?
It depends on what the item is. For seasonal I try to stay under $40 but for staple pieces I can spent up to $80 if its good quality. I have bought a few items that are way over that $80 mark but they are usually one time purchases or special occasion pieces. I don’t shop all the time, I do it seasonally. My last H&M order I spent over $300 which is a bit much for me too be honest. 

7. What are your favourite places to shop?
Some of my favorite stores are H&M, Loft, and 

8. Favourite fragrance?
I have two that I switch up now and then. I’m either wearing One Direction’s Our Moment or Marc Jacobs’ Daisy. 




9. What's your favourite way to do your hair?
I have naturally curly/wavy hair so I tend to just let it air dry and wear it like that. 



10. What is your go-to outfit when you have no idea what to wear?
I always go for and oversize sweater or shirt, black leggings, and black riding boots. Not too fussy. 

11. One fashion trend you wish would come back or stay?
I love everything to do with the 50’s/60’s. The big skirt and dresses! Love it! 

 12. Show us your most prized possession in your wardrobe.
I received a set of pearl jewelry for Christmas a few years ago. Since then I have worn the necklace for pretty much every holiday. I don't really wear bracelets ever and my ears aren't pierced so those items are being neglected. 



13. Tag some people.
I tag all of you! Leave your answers in the comments below! Would love to know what things you all like! 

Thank you,
Spencer

London & Milan Fashion Weeks 2016

Following my Fashion Week post theme, we are onto discussing London and Milan fashion week. These fashion weeks were held a week apart from each other.

Sadly to say there was only one show that I currently liked from the London shows. I like Burberry, Mulberry, and Whistles shows but, this year they left something to be desired for me. I'm a huge fan of Temperley London and their show did not disappoint me this year.

I loved the intricate details in all of their looks. I also loved how they mixed fabrics and prints.







From the Milan shows I was only drawn to the Dolce & Gabbana Show. I'm not a huge fan of the Italian fashion houses so it didn't surprise me that I only liked one show. D&G is great at mixing prints, textures, and different styles all into one show. I think they did a great job this season.

Philadelphia 76ers Game

This past Friday I had the privilege to attend the Sixer's game with my dance studio (Stepping Stone Dance Studio) and it's Dance team. The dance team was invited to perform at the pregame show. The game was sponsored by A Wish Come True, a costume company, who paid for all the tickets to the game! With only 2 months to learn a Broadway/jazz dance number and with such a large age difference in the group, I think the girls were wonderful. I am so proud of how professional all the girls acted and performed. Below are some pictures from that night!










I really want to share more with you this side of my life and I hope you can appreciate my love of dance.

Thank you,
