November 2018

Quick question:

Did the leaves even change colors last year or did they just fall off the trees because I really don’t remember Fall being this beautiful?! It just looks and feels so breathtaking outside and I’m really into it!

What I like most about the Fall is the wardrobe. People always say that everyone looks their best in the Summer, but I beg to differ. New Yorkers know EXACTLY how to do Fall- especially in the city! When it does start to get even a bit chilly at night, everyone gets excited and starts picking out all their favorite scarves, jackets, and knits thinking it will never be warm again. People put a ton of thought into their Fall looks. The new season provides us with so many reasons to upgrade our style.

This season Ralph Lauren’s new Polo U collection is giving us more of a reason to change up our look! These new pieces from the collection fit so great into my Fall style and help me stand out in a crowd. A Polo U piece when paired with a classic pants or jean elevates the look to a whole other level. It gives the look the personality it needs to shine! An outfit paired with a Polo U piece can drastically change an entire look. My new Cotton-Blend-Fleece sweatshirt does exactly that! It’s comfy and thick and still very stylish. I can dress it up or dress it down depending on where I am or the mood I’m in. Perfect for a day in the city or a night out. It is very similar to the other Cotton-Blend-Fleece sweatshirt with the polo P on it. Two great options for the chillier days. My other new favorite piece from the collection is the new Jacket & Reversible Vest. This sports jacket is perfect for all those special outdoor Fall events whether it be a sporting event or camping upstate with friends. The jacket is made of a lightweight cotton canvas material so it’s easy to move around in and doesn’t get in the way. It also comes equip with a removable vest to keep you warm during those sunny but cool days!

University, that is.

Time to relive those college days!

Only having to worry about the few classes you’re taking. No bills to pay or worry about. No buying your own food because you have a meal plan. No real world problems that we all have today. Ah, how nice it was to be a college student. It’s always mixed emotions thinking about those times. Thinking about how free and young we were at the time. The best four years of our lives! It’s nice that the past is in the past and we have all of those amazing memories to look back on. They all come flooding back to me with the new Polo U Collection from Polo Ralph Lauren. They have created a collection an elevated version of the classic college look and I am so into it!

Ralph Lauren came up with a genius idea to revisit those college days – but made it cooler! Each item from the collection has such a unique and personalized look to it. The college green Wool-Blend Letterman Jacket is extravagant and the perfect way to stand out in a crowd. The jacket is such a statement piece that I just had to have it! They sell a similar less-showy option for a more casual night out- it’s the collection navy Wool-Blend Letterman Jacket. I picked it up in the Ralph Lauren store on Madison Avenue and I instantly fell in love. Even though I was never part of a sports team in college I still wanted to own a letterman jacket. Now I own two perfect ones! The fit is just right and now that I lost that college weight they look incredible! Two other great substitutes from the collection are the Cotton Interlock Track Jacket and Fleece Baseball Jacket. They’ll be able to keep you warm all Fall season. I’ve listen a few other great jackets options under the photos!
