As the weather gets colder here in New England, my motivation to wear skirts and dresses decreases drastically. I’m cold pretty much all of the time, which directly impacts what I decide to dress myself in each morning. On especially cold mornings, you’ll find me in my closet staring longingly at my sweatpants and cozy…
This season, Anthropologie has seriously wowed me with their adorable shirtdresses. I’ve wanted ALL of them. I love that they’re the perfect transitional piece to move into these colder months, by pairing them with tights, tall socks and boots. This particular shirtdress, by Holding Horses, is a bit of a different length than some of…
I wanted to revisit my outfit that I wore on Monday, because it was a particularly comfortable look that still made me feel very put-together. This defines my weekday outfit choices because I often have to spend about 13 hours a day in these clothes. Since joggers and a t-shirt are not appropriate to wear…
I just love the different textures and combinations of materials that the fall offers. As I start to layer up, I pay attention to the different textiles in each of my outfits. I especially love combinations like leather and suede, or leather and a chunky knit. The smoothness of the leather really highlights whatever material…
I’m a huge advocate of any piece of clothing that takes an outfit from boring to chic. Since a fair amount of my closet is made up of basics and solid colors, I rely heavily on fun additions to my outfits. This could mean adding a funky necklace, a hat, a scarf, or a top…
I’m so happy to be able to throw on a pair of overalls and not feel like I’m sporting Osh Kosh dungarees circa 1995. These days, the selection of flattering and on-trend overalls is out of this world. There are so many amazing options, at a variety of different price points. Pretty much every brand…
I feel a great sense of satisfaction in owning quality leather goods. Just a note: I don’t mean to upset anyone who may be vegan or is ethically opposed to the use of animal products, however this is one material that I can’t deny loving. Quality leather lasts a lifetime. It’s the only material I know…
Well, the weather has officially changed here in Connecticut. My early morning walks with Kit have gotten much chillier, and I’m forced to keep adding layers. I really enjoy fall styling, though, so I’m looking forward to putting together some layered looks for the blog. There’s just so much more room to play around with…
It may be Monday, but I’m still dreaming about the weekend. Today I’ve got a 12 hour work day, so I’m trying to think about happier times. I recently took on a part-time job on top of my day job, working nights Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The weekends are really the only time I have…
As much as I’m attracted to vibrant, bright colors, my style is loyal to a truly neutral palette. I love beige, white, tan, shades of grey and black. When I found this adorable plaid peplum top from Anthropologie, I knew I had to have it. Not only do I love this silhouette, but it’s a…
