Ruffles and Ridges
Topshop Blazer, H&M Dress and Tights, Cynthia Vincent Wedges, Coach Bag
There’s rarely a time in California when you need more than a blazer and some thick tights to stay warm. Tomorrow morning I’m flying out to New York and can expect highs of 32°, which I’m definitely not used to. Thankfully, I picked up a jacket that could easily be mistaken for a sleeping bag, so at least when I’m waddling down the street I’ll remain nice and toasty.

new york is really the best place to be during the holiday season–have a great trip!
I love the pretty blush dress with your blue nails, it looks really sweet
Have a great Holidays in New York! You are absolutely stunning with that soft pink dress paired with the great blazer. I love everything here.

Love the nail polish! What is it?
love your nail polish, what brand is it? is it the Chanel one?
Huh- a coat that resembles a sleeping bag, and yet I am STILL oh-so-very jealous of you.
Have fun in NYC! And these pictures are so pretty- leaves that look as boldly and brightly hued as the one you are holding have faded from here long ago.
Love this outfit. Have a wonderful time in NY!
you’ve mashed the colors beautifully! admirable!!
I love that dress.
Enjoy New York! The cold really isn’t so bad once you get used to it, especially if you have a warm coat.
dress is really cute!
love the shoes

Love your outfit! New york is amazing at this time of year, But i’m sure its freezing! Its never this cold where I come from (Kuwait) so its always a shock to my system whenever I visit london or New york, no matter what i wear I’m always freezing to death

I must have that bag! You’re such a bad influence, as far as my wallet is concerned.
In the past month, I”ve walked by that dress at least a dozen times and stopped to look at it. I couldn’t figure out how I could wear it without looking ridiculous.
You, however, make it look casual and cool…and, oh dear. I’m gushing.
Love it. !!! Safe travels to you. (And you’ll be glad to have that fashionable sleeping bag with you. I live in Boston, and finally gave into getting one myself last year. Totally worth it, fashionwise, moneywise, everythingwise.)
Oh, how I love NY. Your hair looks great and I want that Coach bag!
What nail polish is that?
Good for you! Cute dress.
Where do you get your black tights? I’ve been looking for a pair that are as opaque as yours.
You look simply smashing…….have a spectacular trip!!!!
What color nail polish are you wearing? I love it!
I love that dress!
Have fun on the East Coast!
It looks really nice!
Have a great time in NYC!

Love the sweet, ruffled dress with that tough zebra-print bag. And you’ll have a glorious time in chilly NYC, I’m sure of it!
I love this look…I hope you have a wonderful time in NYC!!!
Loving the bright nails
I love that dress in the pale blush pink– really suits you. I bought it in the grey: http://fashionisdanger.wordpress.com/2009/11/17/yyz-just-cant-wait/
I have worn it and worn it and worn it– it is my new favourite piece! Have fun in New York– you are so lucky to go at this gorgeous time of year. Make sure you check out the sublime windows at Bergdorf’s– they have outdone themselves this year!

I love this ensemble! I almost bought that ruffley dress at H&M - they have such an amazing collection this fall!
I love that dress! It’s the perfect thing to wear to work and then out for drinks. Have a great time in NYC!
It’s hard to be cute when it is THIS cold, it was around 30 here in D.C. this morning … I was looking pretty rough with my Uggs and big winter coat : ( … I can’t wait for spring!!
I can’t believe there’s someplace in the the States that still looks like fall! I’m in Wisconsin and we’re covered in a thick blanket of snow. Want to switch?
I love the dress! And New York sounds amazing; I’m jealous! My friends are there for the week actually. Enjoy yourself and stay WARM<3
NY at Christmas is fabulous. Have a great trip!
XO Piper
The dress looks so cute on you. 32 degrees is not that bad. I hail from Fargo, North Dakota and I consider above 0 to be a good temp =) you will be fine!

Have fun in NYC! I’ll be in the city this weekend, too. Good luck staying warm, and grab a slice of Amadeus Pizza if you get the chance.

Yay! I can’t wait to see you!!!
Hey Emily…our mutual friend Brooke directed me to your blog a few weeks ago and I just LOVE it. I am in the beginning phases of starting one of my own and find yours really inspiring. Thank you for that.
Don’t be too afraid of the cold, you’ll be fine….
Us Californians that live in NYC ALWAYS have the best coats and are never the ones who are cold :-). If you need anything while you are here, please don’t hesitate to get in touch…
So wishing I could visit NY this winter and see the city at Christmas time! Have a safe flight and a great trip!

32 isn’t bad at all…. I live up in Canada and it was -40 the other day. But stay warm in NYC and very cute outfit!
You outfit looks amazing. I really like the dress. We finally have an H&M here in Calgary, AB and I’m super excited to check that out. It’s 32 degrees right now (0 celcius) and it’s not that bad at all. It’s a nice mild temperature for winter. Have fun in New York!

maybe you’ll get some snow while you’re in NYC!

The city is so beautiful this time of year. All the lights and the windows of the shops all decorated for Christmas. It really is the best time to go. Have fun!

Have a safe flight and a wonderful time in New York City, Emily!!
Not true for those of us in northern California (close to Oregon)! Even in San Francisco i’ve needed a warm coat. Have a good trip!
Oh I LOVE NYC this time of year! Have fun!
I lived in the LA area (originally from Portland, OR) for 3 years and I SO missed the cold weather. Being able to get all bundled up is something that makes me so happy. I hope you have fun!
Love the combination of a zebra bag with a sweet ruffle top and great mintgreen nails! so nice:)

Have fun in New York! Love the leaves.
Thank you for turning me on to that Essie nail color! Its my new favorite and I get so many compliments! xx
You make looking chic so easy! Every time I look at your pictures, it makes me want to move to CA!
Nice H&M find! I’m always too impatient to dig down for the good stuff there.
Haha I like how you described that coat
A lot of people in Pennsylvania own those! They really work at keeping you warm!
I love your nail polish! It’s a nice contrast to the feminine pink of the dress.
I adore your dress! Have a great time in NYC! There’s no place in the world I’d rather be
You look so gorgeous, I love the whole outfit! - XOXO, Natalya of Wear Necessities

Have a great trip to NY
I adore the blue nail polish
Really cute ruffles. I have a skirt that resembles that and I love it!
Yeah New York! We welcome you! just a warning, it’s not so much the cooler temp that will give you chills it will be the Wind. It can be beautiful here on a cold day when there is no wind. I hope the cold doesn’t scare you away! Have fun!
Your outfit is AMAZING. I wish I looked that great in light pink
Have a nice trip in NYC!
I have always been a fan of ruffles and now I’m a fan of your pink dress. Very cute!
