Stripes and Plaid

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 […]

Quick Change: Owl Sweater and Mint Button Down

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; […]

2 Ways to Wear Rust Colored Jeans

2 Ways to Wear Rust Colored Jeans

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 […]

2 Ways to Wear Olive, Pink, and Burgundy

2 Ways to Wear Olive, Pink, and Burgundy

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 […]

2 Ways to Wear Sweatpants and Heels

I’m linking up with Eboni of the Fashionista Next Door again – check the “Daytime Sequins” link up here! – to put together looks featuring sweatpants and heels. Yes, AND. These two seemingly not-even-in-the-same-area-code items actually pair well together, and it’s an easy way to feel both put-together and comfortable. Mmmm… dressed up […]

2 Ways to Wear Orange Jeans

Remember this past summer when bright jeans were EVERYwhere? I’m not a big fan of labeling or wearing pieces strictly by season (see Exhibit A & Exhibit B) – my budget isn’t a fan either 🙂 – so when these jeans nearly blinded me when I walked into my closet […]

2 Ways to Wear Mini Skirts in Cooler Weather

If you were following me for a bit before all my blog-related technical issues, then you already know that I love, love, LOVE short shorts and mini skirts. (Quick recap for the newbies: My legs, especially below the knees, and ankles are practically see-through, and I’m fairly deficient in the […]
