SCARF STYLE
1. Before it gets too cold to leave home without a jacket, use a tweedy scarf as a transitional piece for a look that’ll provide subtle autumn edge to your workday wardrobe. To achieve: This one's easy. Loop the scarf loosely around your neck, with both ends hanging casually down front.
2. As it gets slightly chillier, add a sweater and turn that same scarf into a neck wrap. This option is an elegant solution if you don’t feel like rocking a turtleneck; it’ll still keep you toasty and on-trend. To achieve: Wrap the scarf twice around your neck, fairly tightly, and then tuck both ends in for the cool, chunky look of an infinity scarf.
3. When it comes time to add a coat, an ascot knot that’s a tad askew pairs well with a casual jacket, like the military bomber above, to add warmth while maintaining a lean silhouette. To achieve: Drape both ends of the scarf over your shoulders, then cross them, pulling the left side through the loop you’ve created. Tighten the knot slightly, so it’s slightly askew, and keep the lengths of the tails asymmetrical. Remember, this works best when your coat is worn open, as tassels hanging out from beneath your zipped jacket is never a good look.
4. For an incredibly easy way to bring a trench coat out of Inspector Gadget territory, don’t forget that a scarf, after all, is an accessory. And sometimes that’s all you need. To achieve: Simply drape it over your shoulders to add texture and pattern to an otherwise monochromatic look as you don outerwear for crisp or stormy weather.
5. And on that theme, as you move into dressier fall looks (herringbone blazers, for instance), the scarf’s purpose can switch from warming your neck to adding texture to your outfit. A houndstooth scarf mixed with a herringbone jacket will add a dapper twist to preppy tweeds.To achieve: Loop around your neck and throw one tail nonchalantly over your shoulder. Keep the front one longer, as it should hit about hip level.
6. Finally, for truly cold weather, go Italian with the appropriately named Euro knot. To achieve: Fold the scarf in half so that the ends meet, drape around your neck and pull the ends through the loop. This style looks best tucked into a military coat with an open neck or a toggle coat fastened halfway. The elevated knot will add dimension and fills out the open space under the coat’s collar.

INFLUENCES
I often wonder "what influences my style, spending habits and overall lifestyle"? Good question. I am still trying to figure that out. I guess I take a little bit from many sources to create my own. Check the video below of The Influencers:

BANANAS (RACHEL ZOE VOICE)
Holy Crap,
Via Freshness Mag
As many of you know that I am a sneaker aficionado. Well a little less than obsessed but extremely close to it. Anyway, these beauties are up for auction. Nike is rumored to be releasing these bad boys sometime in the future. Hey all you lovely people in Oregon please grant the wish of 1,000,000 of us who are drying to lace up (well not really lace up because they are self lacing) a pair of these jawns. Man I am really excited about this auction. I can't afford it but one can dream. SWOOSH! JUST DO IT!!

SALES TAX BACK 4.375%
Via Racked.com
Clothing and shoes under $110 will cost you 4.375% more today than they did yesterday thanks to New York State, which just brought back the tax four years after the last time it was rescinded. The increase should last through next April, at which point it disappears, but only for everything under $55. Of that 4.375%, by the way, only the four percent goes to the state—the other .375 goes to the MTA.
MTA? Really? More money goes to them and yet our metro cards increase and the service continues to be cut. BULL DUNKY.
