Two cray things are going on here: The wind is blowing like nobody’s business, and I’m wearing hubby’s glasses. His actual prescription OMG-can-he-see-at-all glasses. Backstory: I accidentally left my Ray-Bans in the car and really didn’t feel like walking the 10 steps back to get them. Hub volunteered to grab […]
Remember this owl print sweater + mint shirt combination from the double denim post? To switch it up a bit, I swapped the skinnies for a tweedy pencil skirt. On another, but related, note: I look like one of the “Desperate Housewives” in this picture. Love that tea mug, though; […]
Blazer (similar), Sweater Vest, and Belt: J Crew Buffalo Plaid Shirt: Ralph Lauren Boys’ (also worn here) Jeans: Madewell Boots: Ecco Bag: Vintage (left over from a boho-style phase I went through in grad school :-))
Last weekend, I was throwing the football around in the backyard in shorts and a tank top. Fast forward to Thursday/Friday, and it’s 40 arctic-windy* degrees outside! Well hello there, Spring! 🙂 *My hair is all over the place in these pics, thanks in part to the above mentioned breezes. […]
Jacket: Ralph Lauren via Labels (I had it tailored to be more fitted.) Sweater: J Crew (also worn here) Camouflage pants: Zara (styled more casually in this post) Belt: J Crew  See another way to rock camo + stripes on the Joy and Sunshine Facebook page! Â
There’s something about monochromatic dressing that I’m into right now. Maybe it’s the ease of dressing (just throw on a few things in the same color…exactly zero time and effort expended), or maybe it’s that I get to wear my favorite colors head-to-(almost)-toe. It’s probably a little of both 🙂 Side […]
Yo. Post pause: My friends IRL know that when I start a sentence with either “Yo” or “Y’all” I’m about to say something serious. Like a couple of months ago when Similac randomly mailed me cans of formula and a note – addressed to me by my FULL name – […]
Before I started trying to figure out my personal style and what it is that I truly like and want to wear, I never – ever – wore bright colors. It was all navy, gray, black, white, and tan all the time! I’ve overcome my color shyness since then (thank […]
I picked up these rust colored semi-skinny jeans a while ago, and I’ve been wearing them to pieces. Side Note: I noticed that the price of these jeans – and not just these jeans…lots of items – fluctuates considerably on the Macy’s website. I got them last year for around […]
Olive, hot pink, burgundy, and navy (not to mention wide stripes, thinner stripes, and dots)… I know: it sounds like a lot, but I really do like the drab + bright color combination. Also, olive is right up there with navy and gray as my favorite pair-with-any-and-everything neutrals, so it […]
Image courtesy of Gap I picked up a denim blazer from Labels, my favorite consignment store, ages ago, but I could never decide how I wanted to wear it. That is, until I saw this old Gap ad in a magazine. I even have a yellow tee – random, I […]
This look is a departure from my usual preppy tomboyish look, but here’s the deal: I had bronchitis, was coughing like an extra in “Outbreak” every two seconds, and could barely bother getting dressed. I was also freezing, so there was no way I was taking off the big, warm, […]
