Happy to See You 2011

Juicy Jacket, Alice + Olivia Dress, Banana Republic Purse, Forever 21 Booties
I rang in the new year with some close friends (sequins, metallics, cheetah print galore) and the obligatory glass of champagne. I did not make a resolution this year (I never really stick to them when I do anyway), but I already know that this year will be an exciting one with many changes (getting married in June so that in itself will hopefully motivate me to get my push-ups on). 
This bright green jacket is my absolute favorite. A few winters ago, my mom suggested I buy a classic black peacoat and this is what I ended up with. I just love it and I'm pretty sure this was the first faux fur collar to grace my closet. 

How did you spend New Years Eve?

Ohhh I love that coat! It's a great color on you, and I like that you picked an unexpected color instead of the typical black. Also great purse! I've been on a major leopard/cheetah kick lately, and I think this blog is partially to blame :)

Elisabeth said...

This green looks so fabulous on you. I can't wait to follow your sartorial (and marital) adventures in 2011!

Kate said...

That coat is gorgeous! The color looks great on you! I have become so obsessed with coats & jackets this year - we spend so much of our time in them, only having one main coat can get very boring! Love that this coat looks warm with the fur collar, but in such a spring-like color! Lovely!

Me and my best girlfriends since kindergarten had a little girls night downtown. Love the coat :)
Bisous,

That color green is PERFECT! Such a great jacket!

I enjoyed a laid back NYE celebration @ a nice restaurant (Ocean Prime) with just my hubby. Such a nice change from the wild NYE parties we've attended in the past ;)

Happy 2011!

gorgeous coat!!! what a fun way to ring in the new year. have a happy first week of 2011!

Valerie said...

Sounds like you had the perfect NYE. I also had the obligatory glass of champagne (or 2). Your green jacket is so fun! I agree that it's way better than a standard black peacoat. And I love your dress. Happy New Year!

ummm...so I was just gonna say that I love your sequin skirt and how fabulous it is but then I was like wait! I absolutely ADORE your jacket just as much. Then you top this amazing outfit off with an amazing cheetah print purse! I am blown away. I love it so much.

a bit coquettish said...

Kelly green + leopard print = the ultimate combination, one I must try out ASAP.

I love, love, LOVE black. But I harbor a secret obsession with cheetah (well, not so secret anymore). So darling, you are a woman after my own heart.

Happy 2011! xx
