Trend Whoring: Leggings & Socks & Sandals

Dec 02.11 / Jennifer Nicole

All the things that are wrong. Together. In one place. For your eyes to see. Oh! Wait! Pretty? When Lindsay and I bought these Nine West sandals (yes, we both have a pair, and bought them on…the same…day…) I knew that I would wear socks with them. I didn’t know if it would look good [...]


Shoe Porn: The New Sneaker: Moccasins

Oct 26.11 / Jennifer Nicole

So, this is awkward. Lindsay and I don’t know how to feel about moccasins. Scratch that: Lindsay knows how to feel about moccasins. She hates them. I’m…I don’t know. I mean, really, I just don’t know. I look at moccasins and I think, “Hello, house shoes.” I think, “My dad wore these while mowing the [...]


Hurry! 8-Hour Steve Madden Midday Madness Sale

Oct 05.11 / Jennifer Nicole

Ever since I had to return my lovely yet star-crossed Anvils, I’ve been waiting for Steve Madden to show me the perfect boot, during a perfect sale, so I could use my perfect 20% discount to procure a perfect replacement for those not so perfect boots. I’d make a glass slipper analogy, but that conjures [...]


WYW: Brightly-Colored Jeans?

Oct 03.11 / Jennifer Nicole

I aaaaalmost bought a pair of burgundy skinny jeans at Marshall’s this weekend. The jeans I almost bought were basically these ones by Current/Elliot, except mine were a hell of a lot cheaper. The “bright jeans trend” first emerged on the S/S 2011 runways, and Lindsay fell in love with it back in June. As [...]


Fashion For The Nerdy Girl

Sep 08.11 / Lindsay

Some of you who know me personally make think this is obvious, but for those readers who have just stumbled upon the site – I have a confession: I am an enormous geek – and Jen is, too. We’re very, very different types of geeks, though. I am the type of geek who stays up [...]


I’m Wearing: For the Birds

Aug 15.11 / Jennifer Nicole

Last week, we posted a little preview of today’s outfit post on Facebook, in the form of my tights. They’re ostrich-patterned, or so I was told, and apparently, they’re also love-’em-or-hate-’em. Baileymarie says “kind of loves them,” while Liz thinks they look like “cellulite under a microscope.” Oh my. PS: This is the last time [...]


The Broke-Ass Babes in: Mobili-tea

Aug 05.11 / Lindsay

JCPenney handed us a Summer Assignment to create the best summer tea party possible in Seattle. They challenged us to grab our girlfriends, grab some dresses, and create a whole new story from a frock and a teacup.


I’m Wearing: Red Leopard

Aug 02.11 / Jennifer Nicole

…Rawr? I’ve been trying to disassociate the idea of leopard print with my memory of bad outfits from the late eighties, with their garish colors, synthetic fabrics and wide, coke-altered eyes. If I really think about it, the reason I ran screaming from animal print wasn’t the eighties: it was the gaudy, self-esteem deprived women [...]


Inspired By: Summer Style

Jul 25.11 / Lindsay

Some of you might know (especially if you follow us on Facebook) that I am a blog fanatic. Not only do Jen and I collectively run five websites, but I personally follow (and stay up to date with) over 300 style blogs. Endless inspiration, beautiful imagery, and fashion pornography are only a few of the benefits [...]


I’m Wearing: Wedding Weeds

Jul 25.11 / Jennifer Nicole

When Lindsay and I get together to take photos of our outfits, it’s an all-day event. We like finding those perfectly hidden, often overlooked locations, then spreading out our tote bags and purses and lip gloss and shoes (…so many pairs of shoes…), claiming the area as our own before shaking off that camera-shy feeling [...]
