I know it's the season of sandals, but that doesn't stop this shoestring budget blogger from scoping out the perfect flats for chilly nights and early autumn. 6pm.com is brilliant for finding amazing clearance deals. I rarely get out of bed ...
Since this year seems to be maxi-palooza 2011, it's not surprising that I'm pretty overmaxurated. (See what I did there?) Seriously, maxi dresses are starting to get so, so, so boring. Ooh, look. Solid color maxi dress with a tier ...
Good morning, Friday. This dress. This draped, flowing dress...can you imagine the way it moves? The way it feels on skin? Because that's all we can do - imagine. This stunning perfection, made by Donna Karan and available at Net-A-Porter, ...
I have been a blogger for almost four years now, and you all would cringe at the number of times I have hoarded things, for fear that you might buy all of them and leave nothing for me. ...But not ...
I own a dog. Every morning I take that dog outside, twice, and every morning this summer, I've taken him out in sandals, forgetting that the grass in my back yard is still covered in dew and that I am ...
Jus Animalium Culture Apparel (JACA) is a company that has devoted their aesthetic gifts to helping spread the word about animal cruelty - in the fashion industry and otherwise. (See the Jus Animalium Ethical Designer Profile for proof of their ...
I've been really attracted to this silhouette lately: a high-waisted, narrow, pencil skirt with structural, boxy tops. I'm sure that there are a ton of publications saying that specific body types "shouldn't" wear this silhouette, but I really encourage you ...
Seems counter-intuitive, doesn't it? Bigtime heat-waves plus knit things? Sounds sweaty, right? I, for one, love sweaters in summer. Particularly summer nights spent outside. Big, baggy, and cozy, paired with shorts and wedges. Open-weave sweaters are my favorite, as you ...
It's Monday, and lord knows I didn't get enough sleep. I stayed up too late Saturday night, and though had enough forethought to get up early on Sunday morning, I couldn't help taking a nap mid-day. It ruined my circadian ...
The details around this summer shopping guide are starting to become a pattern. We don't mean "look at the pretty dresses," of course. We mean that every time we get together to work on Saturday night we end up going ...
I'm big into jewelry: chunky necklaces, delicate bracelets, cocktail rings. Gotta catch 'em all. Like Pokemon. (Full disclosure: I don't know what that means. I never...played? watched? did? Pokemon.) Jewelry in summer is hard, though. I sweat, and my bracelets ...
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 ...
Last week, I finally got to try the Borghese B Moisture Advanced Care Lipcolors that Lindsay and I were sent for review. (Lindsay's review of the Carnivale Red lipcolor can be found here.) I grabbed orange first, then purple, and ...
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 ...
Ok, we're not really going to steal anything... But we are going to do a bit of creative imitation of some of the cutest sandals in high fashion right now - the Capretto sandals by Miu Miu, which are currently ...
I have a confession to made: I have a bigtime shoe crush on a fellow blogger['s shoes]. Ever since I started reading ThinkThruFashion by Sydne Summer, i've enjoyed watching her rock her monthly staples, and her absolute diligence for daily ...
I turned 26 two weeks ago, and I have made a lot of very important decisions: I no longer care about weird stares on the street (we call this "the year we stopped giving f**ks"). I need to start being ...
I did. I thought I'd seen them all. Birds on a wire. A chandelier. A damask frame. Bamboo. A psalm or quote by someone heartwarming. Never did I ever expect to come across this in my search for the perfect ...
I'm trying to be more disciplined. While my busy life works best with a schedule - my main "blog work" days are Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evening, and Monday nights are for doing nothing productive at all - ...
Yesterday afternoon I lost track of time in Nordstrom Rack. There were shelves and shelves of sunglasses, all on sale, and I couldn't resist. Sunnies in the kitchen. The sunglasses are by Fossil, which a friend told me is ...
