Here’s a little fun fact about me: I am always cold. On those dark, chilly mornings when I’m getting dressed for work, I just want to throw on the softest, warmest pieces of clothing that I can find. Unfortunately, those super cozy clothes are not always the most fashionable. But, as you know, I’m always on the…
A few weeks ago, I wrote a post confessing my love for high rise jeans. I find them to be the most flattering fit for a few very important reasons. If you missed the post, I’ll get you up to speed: Mid to high rise denim does a great job at smoothing out the mid-section…
As usual, mother nature is playing her seasonal games. Last week was freezing (hence my frantic winter coat hunt), and this week the temps are back to the upper 60s, so I’ve been running around jacketless! I even opted for a little floral midi skirt today, which was a nice treat. It got me thinking…
After a couple of really cold October days, I realized that it’s probably time to get my rear in gear and get serious about winter coat shopping. For some of you, winter coat shopping isn’t even a thing- I’m looking at you, southern state dwellers. But, for us in the Northeast (and anywhere that experiences…
I don’t know about you guys, but I have a habit of filling my online shopping carts and staring at them longingly. Since I’m always searching for the best deal, I only bite the bullet and checkout once I’m sure I found the lowest price. My Free People shopping cart is especially large, since I…
I’m not really sure where this trendy little detail came from, but I’ve been really drawn to the knotted-front dresses and skirts. As far as I can tell, it’s almost entirely decorative and serves no real function for most garments, but it looks so darn cute. It’s actually a little reminiscent of how we used…
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…
If I’m in a rush, and I don’t have time to stand in my closet pondering outfit combinations, then I’ll most definitely be throwing on a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. Pretty basic. However, I’ve been trained in the art of accessorizing. I have my go-to accessories that are my cheat to a quick…
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…
