I’ve recently been going back through some Pinterest boards to do some reorganizing and I stumbled across this outfit that I pinned a year ago. Then I remember WHY I pinned it – it’s the perfect, every day spring/summer ensemble that is super easy to pull off and even modify if needed. After all, it’s [...]

Image via Patrick McMullan I’m always on the lookout for outfits that can do double duty – in life or on vacation. Classic pieces that get remixed for an edgier daytime vibe are perfect for this – and Ashley Olsen is the queen of pulling this kind of combination off. A simple white bandage skirt [...]

It’s Spring Break week here and I’ve been thinking about an upcoming trip to Miami in early May. I’ve never been to Miami, but I have a Life List item to dance is a small dress and tall heels in South Beach. I’m hoping I get my chance. Until then there is daydreaming about conference-going [...]

Spring doesn’t always have to be about pinks, flowers and wild prints. When I stumbled across this ensemble on Pinterest it struck me as clean, bright and polished without being over the top. With a subtler necklace it can go to work and with white jeans it can go anywhere else. The black accessories ground [...]

(And street style totally counts as runway during Fashion Week in New York.) Inspired options: Blazer, Hugo | Sweater, Vivian Tam [...]

There is a belief that your home and your wardrobe should be similar – a reflection of your true self. I think in this case they might be right.

When I saw the Emilio Pucci runway image on Pinterest, I was instantly in love with the army green + fuschia + navy color combination. I love the richness of the look and it’s easily reinterpeted for an everyday look. Rag & Bone Tomboy Cotton Shirt | J. Crew Wool Cafe Capri Pants | MICHAEL [...]

Want to know what I’ll look like when I’m out running errands this spring? (Or possibly next week?) THIS. Everything here is perfect. A comfortable rugby-striped sweater, killer bright royal blue jeans, the classic Chucks and a great bag. This is the transition from winter to spring on my mind. Old Navy Rugby Stripe Sweater [...]

There’s something about fur that just feels a little luxurious – even if it’s a long faux fur vest. I’d like to imagine myself in Aspen just back from shushing, but in reality it’s Houston, TX with oddly humid cold weather that can’t always make up its mind. Out to dinner in jeans, a black [...]

All images thanks to Christine Tremoulet of Big Pink Cookie I stumbled across these Viggos skinny cargo pants at Saks Off 5th and I swear if it were feasible to sleep in them, I would. Perfect for a day of errands, parent-teacher meetings and a bit of holiday shopping. I’m a sucker for a mostly [...]
