Wednesday Wishes

Happy Wednesday lovelies!!! I hope your week is going well! Here is what I am wishing for this Wednesday...

These hot pink Jimmy Choo 'Abel' pumps would add the perfect pop of color
to a boring work suit or a little black dress at night!
(via Nordstrom)
Shelby Accessory Tower would be perfect for my jewelry, sunglasses, scarves, etc.
(Pottery Barn)
Thermique towel warmer - I would adore a towel warmer for the cold morning ahead.

Bubbles, Baubles, Bibs, and Bangles

I absolutely adore jewelry. Real, fake, big, small, old, new, I don't discriminate. Finding a good way to store and organize it is always a struggle. I now hang a lot of my necklaces on the wall as a statement piece and store a lot of my rings and bracelets in boxes in a drawer, earrings are kept in an older jewelry box - but this system needs updating (my next project). Here are some of the pieces I'm dreaming of now.

This is so cute for fall!
Kelly Glam Collar  -  this piece is so fun

JCrew Bubble Necklace
Pomellato's Pom Pom bauble rings are beautiful!!!!

Caped

One of my favorite articles of clothing is coats - in all forms and styles - trenches, jackets, capes, pea coats, military, fur, etc. Last year I got a great brown tweed cape that I love every time I put on and now I'm on the search for a new one. Here are some of the great styles out there now.

Tahari Belle Capelet - great deal!
Joie Hooded Wool cape
Calvin Klein cape
Asos cape with fur trim - this also comes in black (which I love!) and tan (which is more like brown)
Azzaro feather hooded cape (via Net-A-Porter)
I love the drama of this piece

Birthday Fun

Happy Friday lovelies!! I am sorry that I did not post yesterday, I decided to take the day after my birthday off to spend in the city. On my birthday Nic and I walked the Highline and had a great dinner and yesterday we spent the day together walking around the city, eating delicious pumpkin pancakes, and going to the Bronx Zoo. Here are some of the highlights.

Empire State Building from the Highline
(Nic and I both forgot our cameras so all of our camera phone pictures did not come out well)

Birthday Brunch Mimosa
The gorillas at the Bronx Zoo are amazing - they are so human-like
The lions were so beautiful
(This is when my camera died :( I was not happy)
I was very excited to see the giraffes, they're so peaceful and beautiful.
The tigers were gorgeous and really playful

These tigers were really fun to watch.
