I know, I know - it's been a steady stream of faux leather lately, and I promise it'll let up soon. There's just something about August that makes me excited for the upcoming months when thinking about leather gloves won't ...
If you're like me, your first thought when thinking of leather shorts is: sticky. Sticky thighs, sticky butt.... Sticky, humid, awful. And you're rightish. I add ish because the beautiful part of leather shorts is the seasonally transitive properties (it wear ...
There are so many brands that I come across randomly, fall in love with, and promise myself I'll remember. The frequency of which I actually follow through in looking up said brands is... predictably and extremely low. I don't really ...
This post has been a long time coming because I have been looking at these shoes for a long time. PUMA was one of my favorite brands when I was in high school, and I had no fewer than three pairs ...
Stripes strike again. I am a moth to a 2-bit, monochromatic flame, and I have no interest in curbing my out-of-control habits. This time it was triggered by the friendliest horizontally-striped skirt I've ever met. I've met a lot of ...
Admittedly, part of the reason I'm posting this is because I'm just plain ol' fascinated by it. Namely because it took me about 15 minutes to figure out why/how this was a "horse print" shirt. I thought it was a ...
This morning, while was drinking my coffee, I looked outside the window by my desk and saw the most horrible thing... Someone was raking leaves. Leaves. That means they are on the very un-summery ground. I mean, I get that ...
Lately, I've been gravitating towards purple. I love just about every purple from lavender to violet, but it's the nearly-black hues that I salivate over. Something about that "black but not really" vibe makes me feel sneaky, which I like. ...
Today, I thought we'd a little nod to the upcoming seasonal shift with a closed-toe wedge. But, as per usual, it's no ordinary-boring-time wedge, it's got details. Swirly, paisley details! Thousands of tiny dots, enhancing your shoes one millimeter at a ...
While combing for Daily Deals at Loehmann's, I came across a series of dresses that made me feel awesome inside. Maybe it was the perfect shapes or the explosively abstract yet artistic patterns, whatever it was, I liked it a lot. ...
I'm already taking full advantage of H&M's new online capacity and taking daily opportunities to revel in the loads of sweaters and boots that fill my screen every time I stop by. I have a lot of time to make up ...
I like basics, but basics that are too basic are just boring. I like my black leggings, and I like my ribbed tanks - don't get me wrong, basics are important. But in the interest of multitasking, would it be so hard to ...
When it starts to get humid, I start looking for ways to wear as little clothing as possible without venturing in to "arrest-able offense" territory. This typically means dresses, but not all dresses are created equal. I mean, I wouldn't want ...
How long have we been promised this? How long have the rumors been circulating and morphing and recirculating? Years. Now, the time is finally upon on and, yes, I've double-checked three times to make sure that it's not a joke or ...
I'm just starting to warm up to peplums... now that they've been prominent in fashion for months and months. The closest I've gotten to embracing peplums, though, was when I tried on a shirt similar to this one a few ...
I'm willing to bet that no one has ever said "there's nothing in my closet except mary janes and it's not a good thing!" or "why don't these mary janes go with anything?" Mary janes are the wild card of ...
My weakness for stripes is particularly weak in the summertime, what with all of the obscenely kitschy "stripes on a boat" and "stripes on a beach" opportunities and all. When I saw these Trey Espadrilles on sale at the newly-forgiven-by-me Anthropologie, ...
Remember DesigNation at Kohl's? They are on fire with their designer collaborations, and it's shocking how fast they hit the clearance section sometimes! In this case, Derek Lam's collaboration with DesigNation was very awesome but felt under-publicized. There were so many cool ...
Leather or leather-esque jackets probably don't seem like something you want to think about right now, it being the middle of July and all - but I promise that thinking about faux leather jackets right now will totally pay off ...
On the off-chance that you'd like to escape the summer heat by dressing up, attempting to apply cosmetics to your face, and stepping out in some heels - today's Monday Wedgie is for you. But I have to ask... why are ...
