IT'S GIVING TUESDAY🙏🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This morning I woke up and had ALL intentions of buying a new bag for myself. Instead, I was inspired by Brooke of @somewherelately after seeing her and her daughters putting together toiletry bags for local shelters🥺⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Our local communities need our help now more than ever. That's abundantly clear. That’s why I decided to do a virtual fundraiser to raise money for New York City shelters. To give back to the city that raised me and has given me more than I could even describe🙌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With the money raised, my best friend and I will put together as many toiletry bags as we can to drop off at shelters in need across all five boroughs💪🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Since posting this morning, we raised $200 already and it just makes me want to cry thinking about how generous people are😭 If you're inclined to help out here are a few things you can do:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🎉 Share this post to spread the word!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💰 Send a donation to my Venmo (@dana-mannarino) ...seriously ANYTHING counts!!! I'll also be matching donations up to $250!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💭 Comment with a local NYC shelter that you know of and/or have donated to in the past⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
REMEMBER THIS👉🏻 #GivingTuesday doesn't have to be about the MONEY. Simply spreading the word about fundraising opportunities, volunteering your time, or even giving a complete stranger a compliment is a way to GIVE something to someone else❤️ Stay kind.

Sundays have somehow become my favorite day of the week😍 Ok fine, I'll tell you why🙂👇🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. You could be lazy if you want to. Especially during football season👏🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. It seems like the perfect day to run errands👌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Sunday. Brunch. That’s all (even if it’s at home)🤤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Something about waking up on a Sunday morning just feels NICE🥺😍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. Casual outfits just hit different on a Sunday. You feel me?😇⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And that's all I got for ya😉⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So now we can talk about the LOOK. There's nothing like a simple, all black outfit with a fun shoe, right? My faux leather leggings are still 20% off (I'm wearing a Small Petite - I'm 5'1) and I HIGHLY recommend them. I also picked up another pair of Air Max 90s this weekend because they're probably my favorite sneaker of all time -- this color is the oatmeal. Anddd finally, my faux leather jacket is on MAJOR sale in a lot of colors (like $60!)💫 You can shop my look via the @liketoknow.it app or through the link in my bio🎉

Anyone else already have a Cyber Week hangover?!🤣 I know days like today may make your Instagram feed slightly aggressive...but hey, people have to make money and a lot of people DO want to hear about a great sale! Here’s the way I see it:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👏🏻 Bloggers are small business owners. When you shop through their links, read their blogs, engage with them, give their post a like, ask them questions about sizing, fabric, etc., you’re supporting them!!! (I saw somewhere that ONE influencer drove $78,000 in sales to a boutique. LIKE THAT IS CRAZY!!!)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👏🏻 Small businesses are important. I love when bloggers promote them (my picks are coming tomorrow for Small Biz Saturday!) and we need to continue to share them! They not only have really great deals too, but also need all the help they can get after the craziness of 2020.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👏🏻 Take this time to come to some realizations: Do you enjoy following a lot of bloggers and influencers? Do you REALLY need that sweater? Are you supporting someone’s small business? Are you also spreading the word about these small businesses?

Andddd as always, you can shop this look via the @liketoknow.it app or click the link in my bio🙌🏻

Happy happy happy Thanksgiving from me to you❤️ While it wasn’t the Thanksgiving we were used to, I’m still so grateful I got to spend it with some of my family and Nick😍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I also want to send you SO SO SO SO SO MUCH love. Not just today, but every day. Instagram can be annoying AF in so many ways, but it has led me to connect with so many incredible people and I’ll always be grateful for that🙌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Andddd if you’re just here for the outfits — my blazer is 40% off, my top is 50% off, and my leggings are 20% off🤤 happy shopping🙂 everything is linked via the @liketoknow.it app or through the link in my bio!

NEW YORK AIN’T DEAD🙅🏻‍♀️ And I'm goi

NEW YORK AIN’T DEAD🙅🏻‍♀️ And I'm going to tell you why. *clears throat*⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
March-June were the weirdest, scariest, uncertain, creepiest three months OF. MY. LIFE🙇🏻‍♀️ I almost can't even describe it. If you were in New York during those months, you just know.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Of course, New York has changed. WE ARE LIVING THROUGH A DAMN PANDEMIC🙄 But as always, New Yorkers adapted quickly to this new reality.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👩🏻‍💻 We figured out our new work from home situation (virtual happy hours, new desk set ups, etc.). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🎉 We managed to find ways to celebrate others (via Zoom, via drive by parties, etc.).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🤝 We supported our local businesses by take out and dining outside in the disgusting humidity (and now the cold). ⠀⠀⠀⠀
👏🏻 We clapped and screamed for our front line and essential workers. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💃🏻 We danced in the streets because we couldn't dance at the bars. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❤️ We kept New York alive when she needed us the most.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We stuck around when the going got tough. The streets aren't hustling and bustling because New Yorkers know we need to take it upon ourselves to stay safe to get our city back up and running🙌🏻 (ALSO, HI, IF YOU'RE A NEW YORKER WHO ISN'T BEING SMART, YOU SHOULD START BECAUSE I'D LIKE TO AVOID ANOTHER LOCKDOWN. WEAR A MASK. DON'T GO TO PARTIES. BYE🖕🏻)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So no. New York ain't dead.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
New York is smart. New York is tough. New York is special. WHETHER YOU'RE HERE OR NOT, NEW YORK IS HERE TO STAY💪🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
PS: Thank you to @swdsgns for this AMAZING embroidered tee. Highly recommend you check out her shop and support her small business this holiday season!!!

DOES A NEUTRAL WARDROBE MEAN YOU'RE BORING?!👀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I really don't wear much color (SHOCKER🤣). Occasionally, I'll find a fun top or sweater (or even an accessory) to give a little pop of color to a look...but for the most part, I stick to neutral colors. This isn't because I don't like to have fun, or don't want to express myself through fashion -- it's actually quite the opposite😎⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I like having fun with mixing and matching pieces in my closet with new things and trends I see online. It’s a challenge when I see a new trendy item I like and imagine ways to wear it with something I’ve owned for years😍⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I think it’s important as an influencer (ick, sorry I referred to myself as that🤢) to reiterate that you don’t NEED anything I post. Actually, you probably already own most of the things I post. My job is to share different ways to wear items you may already have OR help you purchase new items that will fill voids in your wardrobe.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So yes, even though my wardrobe is v. neutral, it’s something I’ve curated on my own for years...and I think that’s pretty cool💁🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As always, you can shop my look via the @liketoknow.it app or via the link in my bio👏🏻💫

As if 2020 couldn’t get any worse, daylight savi

As if 2020 couldn’t get any worse, daylight savings has hit me HARD. I start losing focus around 3:30 when the sun starts to set. All I want to do is get in bed at like 6:30/7😳👀 Also who do I need to speak to about this? Like realistically...how much light are we trying to save over here?!🤣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Anyone else feeling this way?! But whatever. It’s Friday. So I’m happy😝

Sherpa and cashmere, what a match made in heaven🥰😍 PS: I’m sharing a lot of Thanksgiving outfit ideas over on stories! Go check ‘em out!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I've been sharing more of my every day #OOTDs on my feed, and I really love it😍 Every day I try to post videos on Instagram Stories to share fit, fabric, etc. Are you into that?! Does it help you decide on purchases? Lmk!👋🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

How I feel when a Monday flies by👏🏻🙌🏻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I want to start a new thing where I share some random ass things every Monday — because why not?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
👋🏻 Come say hi on the blog. Today’s post was all about my thoughts on giveaways in the influencer world (👀)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❤️ To all of my influencer pals, LOFT and Ann Taylor are back on rewardStyle. YAY!!!! Happy linking. And if you’re not an influencer, we have a sweet deal rn - BOGO select sweaters and leggings🙂🙂🙂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
😁 This oversized blazer is pretty much a staple. It’s the perfect amount of oversized without being too big. You can shop it via the @liketoknow.it app or click the link in my bio!

Weekend 'fits are my favorite kind of outfits🙌🏻 But let's be honest, I'd wear this look any day of the week🤷🏻‍♀️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The temps finally dropped again in New York City, and I am ALL for the layers in the perfect fall weather🥰⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This jacket is sold out🥺 but I found so many other amazing options😇 And can we talk about my jeans for a second? Because they literally might be the most perfect pair of jeans I've ever had. I totally understand the investment - they're worth it. I’m v. into rigid denim and I LOVE the fit. If you’re going to purchase, get your regular size knowing they’ll be TIGHT AF when you get them. As long as you can button them, YOU GOOD — they’ll loosen with a couple of wears😉🙂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

QUESTION FOR YA👋🏻 Is your career your dream

QUESTION FOR YA👋🏻 Is your career your dream job?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I mentioned in my last post that I never doubted I wanted to go into the world of fashion thanks to my sister. Once I saw what she did, there was nothing else I wanted to do❤️⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I just assumed I would go into sales just like my sister. SPOILER ALERT: I'm horrible with numbers🥴 As I went through college, I started getting nervous about my future in fashion because I didn't know what else I wanted to do. Then, I found @blaireadiebee. At the time, she was a merchandiser for Gap and I loved how passionate she was about this field and building assortments. I started researching, and the rest is truly history.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
FUN FACT: The first job I actually applied for was in Product Development, not Merchandising. I'd say it was fate that they restructured the role, and I began my career as an Assistant Merchandiser at a menswear company (I actually really wanted to be in menswear so again, FATE😉)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Over the years, it's been incredible to be part of the reason why a product comes to life😍 Merchandising sees everything from the ground up: From concept, to design, to samples, to line building, to fit, to production👏🏻 I work with almost every single team you could think of. While Merchandising comes with so many responsibilities, it truly is one of the most amazing roles in the industry (I guess I'm biased)✌🏻 Seeing product YOU helped create, maintain, and buy is a really cool feeling (imagine how designers feel?!)😭⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
And that's a little bit of my story. I know I'm one of the extremely lucky ones to be working her dream career at a dream company😘⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I want to know -- What's your dream job? Do you have it? Or is there something out there that you feel is calling your name (like being an astronaut...idk I feel like that's really awesome and badass)🤣

Right about now seems like a good time to do a lit
