A coworker of mine told me my makeup looked really great on Monday---and I hadn't changed anything, so I knew it was the pink shirt I was wearing that I got at GAP over the weekend. Isn't it great when a color brings out the best in your skin? Shirt- GAP (buy it here) Skirt- Zara (similar) Shoes- Nine West (buy them ...

Weekend Snaps, What’s in My Fridge & A Lost Outfit
Happy Sunday! H and I went grocery shopping today and I was so proud because I cleaned out my fridge. I love a clean, organized fridge. I wore a super casual outfit to run errands today: Top- J.Crew (another cute option, love this, and this) Shorts- Buckle (similar, similar) Sandals- Reef (similar) Necklace- Banana Republic ...
Saturday Snaps: Cute Finds from GAP & I Cracked my iPhone Screen
Today is the day that will forever be known as the day I cracked my iPhone screen. Fortunately, I only cracked the top left part (where it's all black) and not the screen that I actually use. I had planned to upgrade my phone soon since I'm eligible for an upgrade, so I'll probably look into getting the iPhone 5 (maybe in white this time for a ...
Emily on How to be a Stylish Mom
I first discovered Emily's blog, The Jacksons, through her sister Rachel, who blogs over at Pink Peonies. I immediately followed both sisters---they've definitely got a style gene going on in that family! I thought it would be fun to have Emily guest post since she is a momma to a sweet little one year old girl, Capri. I realize a lot of ...
A Place for Lace
I went on a little bit of a hiatus from this navy skirt from Zara and didn't wear it very much when I first got it. But over the past six months or so, it has quickly become one of my most-loved pieces. It pairs well with so many textures, colors and patterns. I love this blood orange and navy combo. Both colors are rich and ...
Watercolor for Polo
***Before I begin this post, I want to send my heartfelt thoughts and prayers to everyone affected by the tragedies of 9/11. Today is a day of remembrance.*** I attended a Polo match/fundraiser on Sunday and had no idea what to wear. A hat was a given, but what kind of dress? Since it was so hot out, I opted for my watercolor print ...
A Discussion About Undergarments & Vanity Fair® Bra Reviews
Okay ladies, we are about to get real personal here, because we're going to talk about undergarments today. Though they are often an afterthought (I mean, you don't exactly plan which bra you're going to wear the night before your workday), undergarments can affect how your clothing looks, so the topic's worth discussing, no? Now I'm not going to ...
Fall Trends at Simon Fashion Now Fall 2012
Every Spring and Fall, I attend Simon Fashion Now at my favorite mall, the Houston Galleria. This year, Simon hosted a blogger preview event so we could get a taste of the trends that would be hitting the runway during the big fashion show on the rink the next night (they cover the skating rink for the show). We had a BIG group of local ...
Fitness & Food Updates & How to Wear Your Hair at the Gym
Keeping up with my fitness and eating posts is important because it motivates me to be accountable. I mentioned on Facebook that a new fitness studio opened less than a mile away from my house, which is awesome because the one thing that always frustrated me was having to drive to go to the gym (I don't mind driving, I just hated driving really ...
In the (Yellow) Bubble
Learning to use my new MacBook Air and its programs has been both a challenge and a joy. Now that I'm used to the track pad, I don't quite know how I ever lived without it. The command button is now my friend and iPhoto and I are on speaking terms again. You may have noticed an inconsistency in the sizing of my photos lately, but thank ...
