The Season of Toes

Jun 10.11 / Lindsay

Sometimes, we learn things best when we learn them the hard way. My Mom and sister whisked me away one afternoon in search of thai food (which we thoroughly enjoyed at Chinoise, down the street) and then, onward to one of the most relaxing, luxurious experiences a girl can have on a rainy weekday afternoon: [...]


Peer Pressure: Bright Jeans

Jun 07.11 / Lindsay

Yet again, my Google Feed Reader has made me yearn for something completely out of my typical interests. This time, it hails from The Owls Are Not What They Seem – a blog near and dear to my heart not only for the two owners’ amazing sartorial choices, but for the blatant homage to one [...]


Dream Outfit 5.6: Casual But Not Really

May 06.11 / Jennifer Nicole

Lindsay I met as we were both going through that awkward phase where you think you’re the smartest, most forward-thinking person in the world but you’re really not, and you come up with phrases that epitomize the kind of style you want to portray, but you’re still pretty lazy about actually portraying it. Now that [...]


Oxfords Anonymous

Apr 20.11 / Jennifer Nicole

The days are getting longer, the sun is starting to shine (intermittently, anyway) and I am still stuck on oxfords. The first pair I ever loved – and you always remember your first – were my Miz Mooz Histerics, and we’re still together. I shine them once a week or so, and waterproof the toes [...]


That’s Why I Still Love It Here

Apr 19.11 / Jennifer Nicole

“I can’t let this go, I’m on my way And you can only hold my diamond ring. I go crawling back to the city I love ‘Cause it’s already taken everything.” I already have so many trips planned for this summer: Mississippi in May, Utah in August, and at least a couple of trips to [...]


The High Low

Jul 15.10 / Lindsay

I own only two maxi dresses, but they’re rarely worn outside of the house. Why? Because I hate the idea that they must always be summery and worn with crappy sandals. Not that the sandals are crappy, but that sandals with such a pretty, graphic, long dress is the easiest, most acceptable method of wear. [...]


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 [...]


Wanted: Uniform

May 24.10 / Lindsay

Could I just wear this every day for the next three months, please? I swear I’ll be good, and I won’t get bored with it. All Saints Escape Cardigan, £56.25; New York & Co Red Label Silk Shorts, $39; Volcom Request Line Handbag, $42; Lulu’s Sultry Stranger Sunglasses, $9; (Shoes, L-R) DV by Dolce Vita [...]


I Love… Bubble Shorts

Jul 21.09 / Lindsay Wayne Bubble Short Shorts in Print

Just a mere 8 months ago, I sat comfortably in the “I Hate Shorts” zone. Now, I’m living in a city where heat is supposed to reign in once it hits July – and all I can fet out of it is a measly 72 degrees. One might think that, for a shorts-hater – this [...]


Playing Dress-Up with Bluefly

Jul 07.09 / Lindsay

Bluefly is offering new customers $20 off their $100+ order with the code: AFF20 via their affiliates (me!) for the entire month of July. Don’t get stressed – you have all month! What better excuse, though, to play “Dress-Up-With-Things-That-Cost-Less-Than-$100″? I can’t think of one. Actually, I can think of a reason not to play it… [...]
