I woke up at 5 a.m. this morning to do a quick work thing where I had to be on-site somewhere. I wore a tee, my VS PINK thermal hoodie and my Zara jacket that I bought for our trip to Paris. Let's just say that being outside even for 5 minutes felt awful even though I was wearing layers. I finally came to terms with the fact that my lined ...

Weekend Shopping: Hunter Boots, Nordstrom Rack, Sephora & Banana Republic
I'm sipping a cup of mint tea after a long day of shopping with my H. We had an awesome day together---breakfast and lattes at Starbucks, shopping and then a late lunch/early dinner at Chuy's (a Mexican food place in our area.) Our shopping began at Nordstrom Rack so I could use our $50 Groupon. I got a dress by Andrew Marc. I think ...
Weekend Finds & Lauren Conrad Style Book Review
Happy Sunday everyone! Today Kevin and I went to Rice Village to try and find a coat for him for our trip. We didn't have any luck at any of the stores we checked out, so we'll probably have to try the Galleria next week. It's more difficult to find stylish, heavier coats here in Houston since it doesn't get that cold here, even in the ...
Finally Colored My Hair & Weekend Shopping (Some OOTD’s too!)
I am SO HAPPY today! You know how I was all nervous about getting my hair done and going to a new person to get my hair colored? Well, I think a picture says a thousand words: I am THRILLED with the way my hair turned out! I went to Stephanie at Cutloose and she totally understood exactly what I wanted. I am SO happy I found such ...
OOTD: Geometric Prints
Hello lovely readers! I hope everyone had a great day today. My day at work was really productive and I love having those days where you feel like you got a lot accomplished on your to-do list. I know this BR skirt is not a favorite for some, but it always makes me happy when I wear it. It's crisp and pretty! I think it photographs a ...
OOTD & GAP’s New Line of Dress Pants: Black Magic?
Happy Wednesday everyone! I had a meeting today for work so I decided to stick with a simple look: all black, of course. As you all know I wear black a lot because it's easy and flattering. Yesterday one of the ads I showed from the September issue of VOGUE was a GAP ad for their new line of dress pants called "Black Magic." I hope ...
Finally Back! With Some OOTD’s & More!
Where have I been? All over the place. Between co-hosting a baby shower last weekend, doing two blog sales and having my sister-in-law in town (oh, yeah, and putting together a big press conference at work) I've just been slammed and didn't have the time (or energy) to post. But I'm back today...and although I'm exhausted, I certainly ...
Essie’s “Van D’Go” Was A No-Go & A Coral Outfit of the Day
I had high hopes. I really did. I went out of my nail polish comfort zone and tried out two coral/peachy colors: Essie's "Shop Till I Drop" and Essie's "Van D'Go". In the bottle both colors look bright and beautiful, but on the nails, it's a whole new story...with an unfortunate bad ending. So, because pictures speak louder than ...
