Style Saturday...Colored Denim

I most certainly like to dress well and fashionably, but I also don't love drawing attention to myself by what I am wearing- so it took me a little while to warm up to this colored denim trend. Obviously when I finally convinced myself to buy a pair, I opted for the most eye catching color- red. 


I absolutely love the pair I bought made by Current Elliot (yet another shopbop success!)- an additional perk- Current Elliot is all about the vanity sizing, so I ended up buying a pair one size smaller than what I usually wear, who doesn't love that?


Anyway- in my personal opinion, the bright color of the pants needs to be the focus of the outfit so I am a bit disturbed when people pair colored denim with bright catchy prints - I am sure there is a way of doing it well, I just dont think the majority of us know how to pull it off, so I prefer to stick to the basics. 


While white and black tops are obviously very easy to match with anything, I have pulled several white and black tops that are by no means boring. I am currently obsessing with Helmet Lang - the brand never ceases to surprise me with their ability to create beautiful and well fitted pieces that are unique yet still a "staple" for ones closet.

Welcome- The Royalton | NYC

Being as OCD and as absolutely particular as I am, its taken quite some time to get this blog looking exactly as I please. Thank god for the fabulous Danielle Moss who patiently listened as I changed my mind on almost a daily basis. I am simply delighted with how the blog looks and staring at the pretty pink and sparkles is just motivation enough. 


As a current law student (with no ambition to practice law- I am actually starting classes towards an interior design degree next week and am beyond excited!) this blog is an opportunity to collect my findings (I am an obsessive internet peruser and am constantly stumbling upon fabulous finds...) and organize everything I have discovered/want/lust/enjoy/buy ETC. This blog will be focused on everything that is aesthetically pleasing. Hope you enjoy.

For those of you living in NY, you already know that the weather  had been turning into spring, but we seem to have reverted back to winter...and Ive caught a nasty bug in the meantime...a perfect excuse to hide-away in this sexy bar/lounge (although in my current state I am not sure if I should be leaving the house at all, so as not to infect anyone else, so please someone go for me!)


 Located in the midtown area (44th between 5th and 6th), The Royalton is another Ian Schrager Hotel, and as I already expressed in my Rose Bar post- (see below to freshen your memory), I am quite a fan of anything he does. The hotel lobby was originally decorated by Philippe Starck but when it was redone in 2007 Shrager hired Roman & Williams. In my opinion, this is by far the sexiest hotel lobby I have seen. I absolutely love the blue and brown color combination mixed in with bold brass accents.
