What I Wore: Librarian Lynx

Posted in What I Wore by Ciara on December 1, 2009

I was lucky enough to receive this fabulous faux-lynx coat as a gift recently. It passed through quite a few hands to get to me and I am very appreciative!!! I’ve been coveting a lot of faux fur pieces lately and this is just perfect, not to mention WARM! Form and function? Awesome.

(Also, not shown in all of its glory here, is The Boyfriend’s latest drawing for his Thesis Exhibition. More on this soon!!!)

I also found these slouchy boots while scouring thrift stores with my mom on Black Friday. Not a bad day for thrift stores, at all! 🙂 I found them for $3.50 and never worn.

Rachel Zoe for QVC

Posted in Designer Watch by Ciara on October 19, 2009

It is no secret that I am a HUGE fan of Rachel Zoe! (“I die.”) I have been anticipating her collection for QVC for some time and I was really curious what it would be like. A few Saturdays ago (while channel surfing in my flu-nest) I came across Rachel on QVC. I’m not going to lie, the actual on-air presentation was pretty awkward at some points (not at all Rachel’s fault of course, just the awkward, plastic host woman) but the items were pretty great. I’m a big fan of the look of fur but not so much the dead animals part so a lot of these pieces were definitely ones I would like to add to my wardrobe. The chinchilla? BANANAS!

Here are a few of my favorite pieces that you can check out for yourself at QVC.
