A Neverland Trend to Fall For

Fashion Week is in full swing here in NYC, which means it is time to talk STYLE!

One fun trend I've been noticing lately is the Peter Pan collar. I think it is ultra sweet, girly and fun. This look is totally on trend for fall and I think we'll be seeing more of it produced commercially this year and possibly even next. Here are 4 fab collar looks that caught my eye.



ModCloth Fuse Wisely Dress $57.99
This color totally screams Fall. Wear now with black flats and switch to tights when the wind gets brisk.


Urban Outfitters Cooperative Sweater-Stitched Dress $59.00
This daytime look works well for the office or dinner with friends.



ASOS Shift Dress in Ponti $64.03
This evening look will suit your mod side. Wear with booties to complete this trend.


Nasty Gal Par Avion Dress $80.00
Weekends in New England? Maybe not, but this sweet weekender dress calls for lunch on the deck.

Haliee Steinfeld does the Peter Pan look with a
glam beaded collar. LOVES!

Emma Watson looks super chic in this collared skin-tight
scrunch dress.

A MeatBallers Dream


Meatballs-Not something I think about too often. Why? Because, although spaghetti is good, I feel that it is outplayed when it comes to mealtime. Ten year-old me would def disagree but she will come to understand that there is more to pasta than Spaghetti-Os.

That was me up until 2 weeks ago, when I discovered that meatballs don't need pasta! Meatballs just need cheese!  Thanks to Brooklyn's meal quirky restaurant The Meatball Shop, I have been enlightened to the multiple possibilities of meatballs. Whether they are chicken, veg or good old fashioned beef, you can make it a hearty meal minus that overstuffed feeling you get after eating a ton of pasta.

Above, is my 4 chicken meatballs covered in what I think is parmesan (The Naked Balls), with a side of broccoli.


Check out this masterpiece. My boyfriend had some sort of veggie meatball salad (Everything but the Kitchen Sink Salad). All of which was gone in 60 seconds. (He takes what I call, "Dinosaur Bites")


What I look forward to the most when eating at a new place, is trying their desserts. Our friends Sal and Arlene shared this yummy macaroon and vanilla ice cream sandwich, while my boyfriend and I inhaled a chocolate chip cookie and vanilla ice cream sandwich.
