Monica is…always happy with Joie!

effortless & chic

One of my favorite brands to check out during the fall season is always Joie. Joie effortlessly brings out these amazing tops (jackets, & even shoes!) season after season. At work, the tops move into shopping bags faster than we can get them onto the floor! Truth be told, all of this beauty comes at a hefty price but just like Vince, these are solid pieces you’ll have for years to come.

this jacket was sooo buttery!

love this mushroom color & the stitching!

okay i can't shake this gray kick i'm in!

Monica is…school-girl inspired.

A few days ago on my Beverly Center trip, I found this adorable Moschino maryjanes & fell in “love” part 35. I immediately thought about this picture that Autumn De Wilde took of Zooey…

i want these sooo bad!

I secretly love yellow…and when I tried these on they fit like a glove! I hope they’ll still be there when I have a bit of $$ on my hands!

sniff, sniff.....sooo cute!

I decided to take a quick stroll at the Beverly Center, to catch up on pre-fall items and & found so much to look at! Here’s a a short tour…FYI pick up Bazaar’s fall issue…eyecandy*

Dior always looks amazing and ladylike!

I'm in love.

french connection looking a tad like marc by marc, right?

the new fragrance from marc jacobs, lola & it smells like heaven!

louis vuitton always buzzing inside

not typically a "louis girl" but this shape with the shoulder strap is right up my alley

not typically a "louis girl" but this bag was calling to me

burberry's windows...polished & showing off their bags

i loove this look...the dress...subtle burberry print

It’s just what I needed to feel inspired, refreshed, & hopefull for the next months ahead. I can’t wait for all the bags to rollout…I will keep you posted!

Monica is…veggin’ out post hike.

Post hike…my buns and legs hurt! I suppose this means I had a kick ass work out! Bye bye tight jeans! Nothing makes me happier than coming home to a new Nylon magazine, a witty post from Alexi Wasser from Im Boy Crazy, & a crisp cool drink. Sienna Miller is hotness in this spread! Homewrecker or not, I like her flirty style and those legs…envy.

vegging out

look at her pink docs!

Monica is…”cruella” red.

I’m super pleased to have found this particular shade of red from Nars called Cruella. I’m not sure where this obsession with red lips came from, but anytime that I see it on my favorite “it” girls, I instantly think “that gal is gutsy”. It’s a dominating color & I guess it’s the fearless quality you feel when you have it on…sexy vamp!
