Prior to the fall/winter season of 2008, the pink dress got a bad rap. Either it was Betsey Johnson and therefore kitschy, or it was ultra-Lolita and immature to don a petal-pink dress - particularly during spring.
But now that the plants are dying and the temperature’s dropping, pink is conditioning itself for another go, and [...]
It’s time to shop for winter - I get it. I’ve been blasted with every newsletter conceivable screaming “BUY THIS LONG SLEEVED CASHMERE DRESS!”
“DON’T FORGET KNEE HIGH BOOTS!”
“GET THESE SCARVES ASAP!”

“+” indicates that this is a post about women’s sizes, or “plus sizes” - a phrase I really detest. Women are curvy! Women are beautiful and soft and amazing… “plus“… whatever. This is WOMEN’S!
I love summer nights so much. Walking around a city, sitting around a friend’s patio with drinks or scrabble… Sorry, I’m nerdy [...]
Color-blocked dresses have been a trend that’s got some serious adhesive. It’s been around since late last summer, and doesn’t seem to be going anywhere anytime soon.
