In part two of my fall must-haves series, I'm showcasing yet another way to wear polka dots. This sweater has larger polka dots that are more spaced out and I just love it. Simple skinny pants were all that was needed to pull the look together. Sweater- J.Crew (similar, similar) Pants- Banana Republic (buy ...

Fall Must-Haves: Featured on CultureMap
I kind of took a break from blogging last week. I don't know why, but every once in awhile I get a little burned out and need to take a week off to refresh and re-motivate myself. Thanks for your patience and for all of the sweet ladies who sent notes wondering if I was okay. I assure you, all is well, I was just tired. I'm ...
Sunday Brunching
This Sunday, a group of us blogger gals got together for some brunch at Cuchara Restaurant. I can't say I loved the food and tiny menu, but the amazing company more than made up for it. From left- Bethany, Jamie, Magen, Mishelle, Meg (with baby Kennedy) and moi. Also, I got to look at this adorable face all afternoon: Kennedy is ...
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 ...
What I Wore: Dinner at Smith & Wollenskys
Friday night, I met up with my blogging beauties, Bethany, Magen, Mishelle, Monica and Nina. We dined at Smith & Wollensky's (my first time ever) and since it was Houston Restaurant Week, I got an appetizer, entree and dessert for $35 (plus tip, of course). It was delish! I FINALLY started using Instagram and now I know why ...
Weekend Shopping & Brow Planing at Michael Kemper Salon
I've had the busiest Saturday, but I LOVE being productive, so I'm not complaining. I woke up, had a bowl of Fruit Loops (don't judge) and cup of coffee and then I got ready and had H shoot a few outfits for a fall trends story I'm working on with CultureMap. After that, I dropped off my husband at this fantasy football draft and ...
Lace, Lilac & Lulu on a Friday
Though I haven't quite jumped on the peplum train yet, I do have one top, that, when belted, nearly fits the bill. It's not quite the same look, but it's a nice change over having every top tucked in. Perfect for a Friday at the office. Lace top- Zara (similar, similar, really cute option)Skirt- J.Crew (buy it ...
Monday Gingham
I like to start Monday off with an outfit I love. But with love sometimes comes loss and I say this because I pretty much lost circulation in my feet because of these shoes. I'll be the first to admit that these shoes are horribly uncomfortable, but they are super cute (and it's not so bad if you'll be at your desk all day)...or so I tried to ...
Pop of Pink!
As I mentioned in my last post, I've been skipping outfit photos because I'm figuring out the best route to take to my new job and trying to figure out what time I need to be leaving every morning. I woke up a little earlier this morning and was finally able to squeeze in some outfit photos! Speaking of which, I've been getting a lot of ...
OOTD: Put A Flower On It
This week has been great because H and I finally started going back to our bootcamp! It's so nice to know that in a just a few weeks I should be back to feeling energized and get some of my muscle mass back on. I really did start to feel different (physically and mentally) when I was not working out. I had a stressful month at ...
