Denim shirt - Madewell
Scarf - Urban Outfitters
Dress - Thrift Store
Hat - H&M
Boots - Clark
Arrow necklace - Madewell

I found this stripe dress at a thrift store a few blocks from my apartment. It quickly became one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe because of its versatility and comfort. I could easily pair it with a pair of boyfriend jeans for a different look. As you can see, its also a great layering piece that matches many jackets and various accessories. I am currently riding out this polar vortex in Philadelphia, I hope everyone stays warm!

I'm in love with Ellie Goulding's new music video for "Goodness Gracious". It's so colorful and fun to watch. She's the one celebrity's wardrobe that I would most like to own. And her hair is flawless, she makes me want to go blonde. My admiration is definitely going into girl crush territory. I have yet to see her live but she is coming to Philadelphia in March, I will be there. 
Happy listening,
MC

I never thought of myself as the type of person to leave the house in sweatpants but it doesn't really count if they're cute, right? I love the skinny joggers that stores are selling these days. My time in Europe this summer definitely inspired this athletic look. I've never worn sweatpants to class during my time in college but I might have to make an exception. Happy New Year everyone!
