Two-Tone Oxfords: Huh?

Dec 15.10 / Jennifer Nicole

So I bought these oxfords. I paid full price. And I know Lindsay would shake her head and sigh, utterly disappointed, but she’s seen them on my feet and knows how amazing they are.  (Liner notes: they’re by Miz Mooz, cost $89.95, and the construction is impeccable.)  I also bought them at Nordstrom, which is [...]

Going to Ground

Oct 04.10 / Jennifer Nicole

It’s Jen! Lindsay’s bestie, co-Demoiselle, and author of the socially-conscious fashion blog, Awakened Aesthetic. You might have noticed that our blogs are getting cuddly – I’ll remove this text after we get to know each other! A few friends and I recently decided to get down and dirty about each others’ styles.  We each posted [...]

Obsession Overload: 30% Off at Tobi.com

Jul 28.10 / Jennifer Nicole

It’s Jen again!  Eventually, Lindsay and I will create obnoxious headers for each other’s sites so you know the difference.  Until then…deal with it.  You don’t know this about me yet, but you soon will: I’m kind of obsessed with Tobi.com. They have an entire section dedicated to eco-friendly designers and products, their customer [...]

Green Apples & Mint Juleps

Jun 11.10 / Lindsay

It is so humid today, I feel like I’m melting. Standing outside in my pajamas, holding my morning coffee, I could have sworn I’d woken up in Savannah, Georgia. The air was orange-tinted, and through my blurred vision, I could swear that I saw a shrimp boat trolling down Clark Street. It’s a good day [...]

Shedding Layers

Mar 06.10 / Lindsay

You know that feeling after you exfoliate your entire body, or after you scrub the hell out of your face in the shower with that Apricot St. Ives stuff, and you leave feeling like you could change your name and just be someone completely different because – oh my god – your skin feels brand [...]

I Want Candy

Nov 10.09 / Lindsay

Naturally, as summer winds (quickly) to a close, and winter begins to set… I have this amazing craving for dresses. Uncontrollable, nearly. I’m not even confident that I would wear any of them, I just want them. Now. Candystore Collective kind of ruined me that way. One stroll just through their sale section, and I’m [...]

B&B Loves Shabby Apple

Oct 01.09 / Lindsay

I’ve been swooning over Utah-based dress operation, Shabby Apple, for a while now. Actually, I need to admit something… I was kind of holding off on telling you all about them, because I wanted them all to myself. I know, how selfish, right? Well, you’ll understand why in a second. Shabby Apple’s mission resonates with [...]

Daily Outfit: A Little Different

Sep 12.09 / Lindsay

Alternate Title: Spotted & Dotted. I have to be honest… I hate taking outfit photographs. I believe that the way most women capture outfits (head-to-toe in frame) doesn’t do any justice to the clothing. Presumeably, it became the most often used method of outfit photography simply because it’s the most obvious, and to most, the [...]

A Prom Rack is an Important Rack

May 05.09 / Lindsay

I received an email from a reader, and discovered that I have readers who go to prom!! How exciting. I didn’t get a chance to attend my high school’s prom, because I was enrolled in a program called “Running Start” which allowed me to take my classes at a local community college. I wasn’t on [...]

The Pink Dress Gets Another Chance

Nov 23.08 / Lindsay

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, [...]
