Ladybug Blazer: Penguin (layered for cooler weather in this post) Ribbed Tank: Gap Lace Shorts and Shoes: Madewell Sunglasses: Ray-Ban Special thanks to my friend KC for taking these pics for me and for suggesting that I put my foot on top of the hydrant outside Le Petit Marche’ in […]
One of my friends* from public health school suggested Le Petit Marche’ in downtown Kirkwood as the perfect spot for a casual brunch group meet-up, and boy, was she right! We all enjoyed our meals, of course, and the relaxed, comfortable French country environment was just perfect. I’m not-so-secretly hoping […]
While my preferred aesthetic definitely travels in the “preppy” direction, I try not to define my personal style so tightly that I feel boxed into a specific look or forced to categorize things as strictly “my-style” or “not-my-style.” Similarly, I try not to think of individual items of clothing as […]
NaturAlmond Hand Crafted Almond Butter (widely available here and here) Let me begin by saying that while I’m on my second jar of this almond butter, I should be on my fourth… or fifth. It’s been out of stock at my usual grocery store for far too long! I jumped up […]
I replaced the wide leg houndstooth pants in this post with these bright green chino shorts for a casual day out. I love how the pop of color separates the neutral mixed prints. I also love a simple, 3-pieces-including-shoes look just as much as I dig multi-layered ones. Striped Top: J […]
Spring/Summer: Jacket: Zara Kids Tank: Gap Shorts: Madewell (styled 2 different ways in this post) Kicks: All Stars Sunnies: Ray-Ban Fall/Winter: Denim Vest: Old Navy Button Down: Club Monaco Jeans: Denim & Supply Ralph Lauren Boots: Steve Madden
Of all the millions and zillions of sunnies out there, I always gravitate towards these two unadorned classics: Ray-Ban Aviators and (new) Wayfarers. I’m still on the hunt for the perfect pair of cat-eyes to round out the set 🙂 Update: While I still haven’t found cat-eye sunglasses that I […]
To me, Little Luxuries are those small things that don’t cost a fortune – or anything! – but that never fail to bring a bit more shiny, happy Joy and Sunshine to my day 🙂 Acure Organics Dark Chocolate + Mint Lip Balm I stumbled upon this organic dark chocolate + mint […]
One of my go-to combinations for relaxed, easy, barely-ironed, zero-thought dressing 🙂 White Denim Vest: Old Navy Popover: J Crew (also worn here; love this chambray one) Sweatpant leggings: J Crew Loafers: Cole Haan Sunnies: Ray-Ban
I love hosting big cookouts and get-togethers* for close family and friends, and these inexpensive entertaining/buffet sets from World Market are high on my list of my must-haves for easy entertaining. The quality and durability beat plastic/paper/styrofoam plates by a landslide; clean-up is one-step (pop them in the dishwasher); and the […]
Leaf Print Cutoffs: Madewell Stripe shirt: J Crew (styled differently here; in a different color here) Crossbody bag: Fossil Kicks: Converse Sunnies: Ray-Ban Denim Shirt: American Eagle (More pics and outfit details in this post) (More pics and outfit details in this post)
I swapped the coral shorts in this post for a flowy black mini that I admit has been one of the most challenging items in my closet to style. I’m all about the concept of a flowy mini, and I love the way they look on everyone else… It might […]
