BluePerk: First Day - Harper's Bazaar
After a month and a half of waiting, today was finally my first day at Harper’s Bazaar in the Fashion Closet.

Shortly after I arrived at the Hearst Tower going in for my first day interning, anxiously awaiting the fashion closest, Sarah Conly, and Joanna Hillman. I meet my fellow interns and...

BluePerk: New York Fashion Week Preparation
With roughly only two and a half weeks before New York Fashion Week. I have planned out my free time during the week and sent an email to my favorite designers that I am free to cover. I am hoping to get at least standing from most of the designers I emailed. Cross your fingers you all! The more shows I get to cover, the more you will get to see what goes on behind the guards at Lincoln Center.

BluePerk: Fall Comparison
Marc by Marc Jacobs F/W 2007
Salvatore Ferragamo F/W 2011
Months ago while I was thrifting at a Goodwill down the street from my school, I came across the Marc by Marc Jacobs coat for only $25. I debated on the purchase then, but now I know it was a steal and can not wait to wear it. In comparison to Salvatore Ferragamo I may not have the teal color, but I have the same style. This shows how...

BluePerk: London Comforter Set - #DormStyle
With only a hand full of days left until I move into my new dorm. I have had some trouble deciding what new comforter set I should get. This comforter is in the direction I am aiming, I could even go in an opposite colorful direction. Though, I have already purchased red bed sheets with a pillow case to give my dorm a nice touch of color.
What are your thoughts?

BluePerk: Even After a Decision
Even a week after I made my decision on which internship I would be doing for this upcoming semester. I am still getting offers from the other places I interviewed at. I must admit, as much as I hate turning down these offers. It does bring me some joy, that 4/5 of the places I wanted to intern at wanted me as well. Though I do wish there was a way to postpone their offers, so I could learn from...

John would sometimes jokingly talk about how she would get more press over her outfit decisions than he would on...

BluePerk: TV Show - The Kennedys
Yet another tv show that I have been keeping up with over the course of the summer, only 8 parts so I have been taking it an episode a week. This series gave me a deeper inside look to John F.

Anonymous asked: I don't mean this in like a bitchy way but I think the heels Olivia was wearing are Charlotte Olympia. But honestly, does it matter? Her chic style shines through no matter what designer she's wearing.

BluePerk: Olivia Palermo Bikes
If Olivia can bike in Prada Charlotte Olympia heels and carry her Burkin on her daily adventures through the streets of New York. I think anyone can venture into the crazy streets of the city in helps to go green and become more self dependent. I just love this photo, classic chic with her bike as the finale accessory.
