When it's over 100 degrees outside, clothing options are limited. H and I were running errands on Saturday and I wanted to wear something comfortable that would also keep me cool. So I went for a mint chocolate chip look with a little leopard thrown in, for good measure. Tank- Banana Republic (love this; also LOVE this, and ...

Pleats, Please
Today I wore my Banana Republic accordian pleat skirt and it continues to be one of my favorite new pieces. You can see how I styled it previously in my Banana Republic Desk to Dinner post. Even though it is more of an A-line shape, it wears just as well as a classic pencil skirt and is just as versatile. Fuller skirts with pleating ...
From Desk to Dinner- Styling Banana Republic’s New Collection
When you work in an office, it's important to have pieces in your wardrobe that can transition from day to night. You'll get more wear out of the item and it will become a staple piece in your closet. When Banana Republic contacted me about their new Desk to Dinner collection, which features work-worthy styles that easily transition to ...
A Great Investment
I feel like I've written this before about this blouse, but this is probably one of my best investments of 2011/2012. It goes with everything and is incredibly comfortable. I think the black and white classic stripes make it quite seasonless as well, which is a bonus. Shirt & Skirt- J.Crew (similar vertical stripe; ...
Minty Monday & What I’ve Been Doing to Keep Fit!
No Motivation Mondays today---but maybe this will motivate you---I'm so sore, I can hardly walk! Now that I'm back into regular workouts, I've come to really embrace my Sunday afternoons. I have a whole routine--- go to the gym, reward myself with a little scouting trip to Marshalls Home Goods and then go grocery shopping (and I'm ...
The Classics
Is there a more classic look than a crisp white shirt with a navy blue blazer? (that's a rhetorical question). I feel like I've been showing a lot more classic looks lately and I actually hadn't intended to do two similar outfits in a row, but these were taken last week and I hadn't posted them yet. I could not be more thrilled with ...
Royal Blues & Outfits from Last Week
I feel like it's a miracle that I'm posting an outfit right now. Ironically, I've been loving my outfits lately but sometimes I don't have time to snap more than a quick iPhone pic before I leave the house (thanks to having to leave earlier because of Houston's horrific drivers, who make traffic even more of a frustrating expereince than I ever ...
Tickled Pink
Don't worry, I'm not converting to a pants lover. Two days in a row of pants is a rarity for me, but like I said in my last post, I have come to appreciate them more once I made more of an effort to style them. Thursday I wore another pair of Editor pants from Express---these are the ones with the normal waistband and belt loops (my other pair is ...
Pinktastic & Stripes
This morning whilst exploring my closet, I decided to go a little overboard with pink (ie: wear a lot of it). I guess it was just that kind of day. I've gotten a lot of comments on my formspring page asking me to please FOR THE LOVE OF GOD stop wearing tights, but honestly, my office is too cold for me to go without them, so my advance ...
Double Take
I like to share more casual outfits on my blog as often as I can and here are two very different yet casual outfits. Here's the dressier of the two: Dress- Nordstrom Rack Cardigan & Scarf- Forever21 Tights-Target (Merona) Boots- Jessica Simpson Here is today's casual Friday outfit (thank goodness for rain---it means I can break out the ...
