SHOE CRUSH: ALEXANDER WANG 'MACKENZIE' BOOTS

ph: Giorgia Tordini Instagram 

Been crushing on these Alexander Wang 'Mackenzie' boots, since seeing them on Giorgia Tordini. Find them here, here + here.

They also come in a short heel version (here) + in a pump style version (here).

THE PERFECT BLACK + WHITE STRIPE TEE

ph: La Garçonne

I have been on the search for the perfect black + white striped tee for years + have never able to find one with the perfect fit, collar + weight. It's almost embarrassing to admit how many striped tees I have in my closet- always settling on the newest find until one that's slightly better comes along.

I came across these two from T by Alexander Wang + ordered them, again expecting to be disappointed, but they turned out to be perfect. Major plus is that there's a short sleeve + long sleeve version, so something for every season.

You can find the short sleeve tee here + here // the long sleeve tee here + here.

As some of you know from twitter, I have a bit of a Diet Coke obsession, so I am super pumped for the Glamour Magazine + Diet Coke party happening next week- It's always fun when two of my favorites collide! The party is in celebration of the new sleek can design + to celebrate the winning design of a Diet Coke t-shirt, which will be available at Target. Also, If you're in the NYC area next week, there will be mannequins styled with the t-shirt throughout the city where they will be giving away all sorts of goodies! Follow Diet Coke on twitter + facebook for more info.
