"These streets will make you feel brand new"
If you inferred correctly from the title, yes, I am off to New York City next week! I put together three outfits for different activities that I may be doing.
The first outfit is for a day of sightseeing. I went casual with this one, pairing together the basic jeans and tee. To not look too touristy, I added some combat boots, a light jacket, and a scarf. From browsing some New York street style, I've noticed that the key is layering, so that's what I aimed for in this everyday, out-on-the-town outfit. If the weather warms up during the day, it's easy to take off the jacket and the scarf.
The next outfit is for a night out, and I know I'm definitely having a couple of those while I'm there! I kept it very classy and conservative with a patterned dress and solid heels. Perfect for those Broadway (and off-Broadway) shows!
I was a little hesitant with the last outfit, but I think it will work for a day of window shopping or casual outings, like a picnic in Central Park. I just have a cardigan paired with the floral skirt and white tee, but it could be easily substituted for a leather jacket or blazer.
And there you have it! Comment down below with any outfit ideas / staples for travelling and sightseeing! Until my next post, stay stylish! :)

How to Wear Leggings

I've been wanting to do a post on ways to wear leggings for quite some time now. I've seen too many people wear them as regular pants, such as with hoodies and short jackets- pretty much with anything, including see-through or worn out leggings with coloured underwear underneath.
*silent scream*
This is not okay. Leggings are not a substitute for pants.
The number one rule I have for wearing leggings is that the top worn must cover your bottom. You've probably heard this a million times before but it's true. Acceptable pieces would then include tunics, shorter dresses, sweater dresses (for the winter), long or over-sized cardigans...etc. The second and third outfits above show these decent ways of wearing leggings. The third outfit is more casual; it would work for class or hanging out with friends. The second look is more dressy; it would be appropriate for a holiday party- leggings under dresses make a great (and often warmer) alternative to just plain tights.
Now, you're probably wondering about the first outfit. This sweater is a little longer, but I doubt that it covers enough to wear out. So my second rule is that if you are at home studying, writing essays, or just lounging around the house, then you can rock your leggings as you wish.
Well, except the see-through ones. I have to draw the line somewhere.
Until my next post, stay stylish! :)
Update December 31st, 2013- Another way to wear leggings to keep warm in the winter is to put them underneath your jeans / pants. It gets extremely cold in Canada, so leggings as an extra layer keeps your legs nice and warm. Even warmer? Fleece-lined leggings. I just picked up two pairs of these and not only are they super soft, but they are also really warm! I definitely recommend them!
