ttF Fashion Diary: Mustard Wind
Lack of sleep from working Oscars made me freezing. So I layered a sweater dress under a blazer to stay warm but still chic at the office. When I stepped outside, my warmth was useless. It was so windy today!

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: All Buttoned Up
Black pants and a white button-up often has the tendency to make you look like a waiter. But puff sleeves and a brooch—and a pop of orange at the wrist—take the outfit of catering territory.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Tweedle Dee
I originally was going to pair a different top with these tweed pants. But remember that spray tan I was raving about last week? Well it’s now rubbed off in splotches all over my chest, leaving me with no choice but to a wear a high-neck top until the color fully fades.
I guess it worked out for pictures, though. The Kelly green shell perfectly matches the amazing view my friend gets to look at in his office every day. Considering I don’t have any windows at work, yes, I am green with envy.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Marigolden Girls
Its freezing outside by LA standards so I piled on the knits this morning. It just so happened that my dress matched the cardigan Jen (who takes most of my pics) was wearing and my blooming roses.
Fave part of my outfit? My new Np2 nail polish in Symmetric. Online it says it’s a light gray, but on me it looks more like a mix between lavender and taupe, which are both big colors for spring.
Least fave part? My tights. The Forever 21 pair I had on yesterday were incredibly comfy but these ribbed ones have zero stretch and aren’t even warm. That store can be so inconsistent.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Elf Yourself
I was going to wear jeans this morning but instead put on green tights. I felt like an elf. A cute elf, but an elf nonetheless. I get to work and the first thing my friend says to me is, “Love your outfit. You look like a holiday spirit.” Is that code word for elf?
After drinking four cups of green tea I got hot, took off my velvet jacket and felt less elf-like. Another co-worker passed my desk to look at the gorgeous flowers I just received (If you’re in LA and need a good floral shop I highly suggest Moe’s. Expensive but exquisite). She said I had a killer wardrobe, sighed then said she dresses the same every day. But that’s the purpose of the ttF Fashion Staples Series. To show you don’t need a huge killer wardrobe. You just need to know how to think thru your fashion staples.

My go-to friend for taking my picture was busy today so I asked the boy with the most fabulous shoes in our office to take fill in. How fun are Brett Michael’s silver sneaks from Urban?
ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: California Preppy
My New York bestie has been in town this week so after stuffing our faces at Cafe Med for brunch and watching some football at the Belmont, we went back to her hotel room for puppy playtime. Her dog is a Pomeranian and Bunny is a Pomeranian mix so it was a blast watching the furballs hop all over each other, definitely a nice break from all this awards season madness.
