Sometimes I get into a fashion mood or phase where I am just wearing the same jeans, the same neutral jackets, the same neutral shirts, and really only have the creative energy to express my alleged joy and vibrance through statement shoes. ...
We just had our first (of hopefully a few...!) snows in Seattle, and it stayed cold enough that the western Washington area was white and snowy for almost a week! But now, the temps are rising to a balmy 44°F, ...
Originally, this post was just going to be a drop box for my favorite new boots of the season, but it ended up containing about 85% boots with buckles on them, so I figured I should quit lying to myself ...
Every micro-generation has their own classic sneaker. Sometimes, there is one shoe that everyone has, and you are the furthest thing from cool until you get a pair. Other times, like my generation, there are several iconic sneakers, thanks to the ever-increased ...
Now is a good time to get your hands on some shoes that maybe don't really fall into a seasonal category. We're firmly into fall now, so all of those late-summer, confused shoes are on big sale. These Crown Vintage ...
Finally, I can check another thing off of my "adult" list: high-performance, outdoor boots that aren't ugly. And they exist for a price that I am comfortable with, given the amount of years I expect these things to last. These ...
Milwaukee-based department store, Bon-Ton has recently taken hold of the fashion internet as I've been seeing them everywhere, and they have announced their fall/winter private collection of clothing from their in-house Ruff Hewn line. The collection, called Ruff Hewn GREY, features a lot of edgier styles ...
Just because the Monday Wedgie is on vacation doesn't mean I've stopped, slowed, or even considered pausing my love of all things wedge heel. I've been hunting and tallying my favorite iterations of summer wedges since early spring. I have ...
First I saw the lilac, then I saw the mint. Then I felt too girly, so I went for the black. Then I felt like going timeless and boom, there was cream. Each one, a perfectly interesting, perfectly wearable, closed-toe ...
My sudden hyper-interest in sandals may also be due to the fact that I can't find my flip flops anywhere. They've been absorbed into my bedroom, and who knows when I'll see my Havaianas again? ...
As far as "basic high-top sneakers go" - I don't think such a thing exists. At least, not in a form we can all agree upon, because I look at these white, faux leather, snakeskin high tops from H&M and ...
Sandal season is upon us, and I've already broken down and bought myself my first pair of Havaianas to celebrate. Unfortunately, rubbery flip flops are not suitable for all occasions. Sure, they look fine with a maxi dress, but when ...
My quest for comfortable-yet-flashy gear has reached a new milestone in its development, and that milestone's name is satin jean leggings. Yes, both jeans and leggings - but not jeggings. No, no... not jeggings at all. ...
I've always shopped with my heart on my sleeve. I will happily give my heart to any piece that gives me goosebumps or makes me feel like a million marshmallows (read: comfortable and delicious). Shopping for "outfits" is something I only ...
Clothes are a lot like cars in the sense that, when you buy a new one and drive it off the lot, the value drops instantly. A piece of clothing can have the tags on and be completely unworn, but if ...
Here's a confession for you: I often shop in the sleepwear/pajama department for clothes I fully intend to wear outside the house. With heels. Without shame. ...
A while ago, I had a momentary obsession with the combination of silver & tan leather on shoes. It's since subsided, but seeing these faux leather and wicker wedges by MIA in 6pm.com's clearance section may have revved it up ...
All the luxurious fabrics of wintertime, compounded and layered like a crazy onion of fashion elegance. Velvet on top of silk on top of fleece on top of wool... Sounds insane. Probably is. I have accepted that as a possibility ...
I've developed a lot of different uniforms over the years. It seems like every 3-6 months, I end up whittling down my wardrobe to a basic canon of dressing that leaves me with a super easy, but still interesting outfit ...
Continuing the Green Period of my life, I have now added a desirable pair of green, strappy wedges to my "need to have it ASAP" list, which is mostly full of other green things.Nice, dark green leather, not to mention ...
