Winter is coming!! AAAUUUGGHHH!

Well, yes, winter IS coming……tonight.  UGH. One thing I always buy, probably in excess, is a cute jacket (or two or three) ;0 . This one I found at Nordstrom’s Topshop section and it is SO cute and SO warm.  It looks SUUPER fancy compared to the price tag.  I can’t get OVER the preppy […]

Orange You Glad I Didn’t Say Banana??

Orange Please! LOL.  Remember those “knock-knock” joke?  They’re so annoying….. Let’s talk about orange.  Frankly, I think it’s the best color for ALL seasons.  It looks AMAZING with white – let’s just start there. So, while this sweater is wool/cashmere, you could wear it on a chilly spring/summer night. White jeans, white skirt, thrown over […]

The Angela Blouse….it was meant to be!

Let’s start here.  I can’t STAND to take pictures of myself. Have I said that already? Well, it’s SO true that it’s actually kinda funny, hence this photo. I really can’t stand it. Sooooo….this was fun to find – this blouse is actually called the Angela Blouse! I was tootin’ around Anthropologie because I love to buy jeans […]

“What the Heck?” Bag

$68 – $98 BUCKS!?!?!?!?!?!?!  Whaaaaa?????? Just browsing along and came upon these bags!!  How incredibly adorable and stylish!  More importantly, the price is RIGHT.   So, if not for YOU, buy one as a gift for someone else.  The HOLIDAYS are coming, after all. Jeesh.  Such a deal!  ;0 ?xoxo Love the Bag

Turkey Day is Coming….

Thanksgiving is a fun time to get dressed up.  I find wearing a DRESS is easier to sport than pants, because of how STUFFED I am by the time I finish my dinner. I also think you gotta stay with the colors of FALL before you start wearing red and green for Christmas.  (Stay tuned for another post […]

Are Tall Boots Out???

Brace yourself – this is a LONG ONE…….. A good pal of mine emailed me the other day, “Are tall boots out?”.  “Hmmmm..”, I thought, “good basic question”.  The answer isn’t just about boots, but about PERSONAL STYLE in general.  Here are my thoughts. Style is YOU.   Style is wearing what looks good on YOU and what feels good on YOU.  It […]

Love a Great Blazer…and this is IT!

Good GRAVY!  I LOVE a beautiful blazer. I really do!  But here’s my problem…… I discovered that I don’t wear them as an everyday piece because I find it SUPER uncomfortable to have to put a COAT on OVER the blazer.  Get what I mean?  Blazers on their own are GREAT in Fall and Spring, but as soon as Ole Man Winter comes along….forget it […]

It’s All About the Dip!

I’m going to tell you RIGHT NOW ( I had this conversation with a friend about this VERY SUBJECT last week) that a bootie that dips down in the front is ALWAYS going to look better on the leg.  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it AGAIN.  Remember my September post, “Skinny Legs for Days“? For the last few seasons, jeans and […]

$59 Bucks???? Whaaaa?????

Believe it or not…..I don’t have much to say about this one except YAY for a $59 dress! This baby can be worn allllll throughout the Holidays!!  This can be a daytime situation or an evening situation depending on the shoe, the bag, the jewels…you get it. Posting a few shoe options for my cold weather gals and my […]

Can’t Get Out of It!

K – this is not the most unique outfit in the world, but to be honest, I have worn it FOUR TIMES since I bought the “dip” booties.  I throw it on because frankly, I know it looks good and I don’t have to think about what to wear.  I can’t STAND when “I have nothing to wear” makes me late […]
