Good Lord, my legs are pale! I guess you don't see it until they're photographed, right? Note to self: gradual self tanner, STAT. Having said that, this gingham dress from Old Navy is just too cute not to share. I wore it today to run errands and then later to a casual birthday party at a friend's home. I also carried my new Tory Burch Thea ...
Nordstrom
Half A Sleeve
I absolutely love half-sleeve tops. This one is a recent purchase from Banana Republic and it's so easy to wear and is a great transition piece between our searing hot summers and our (less) searing hot falls. A simple cream and black outfit is always classic and today I added a faux calf-hair leopard print heel for a little interest in an ...
For the Beach Two…
Over the weekend I shared with y'all a super cute cover-up I purchased for our upcoming trip to the Bahamas. I recently found this adorable dress at Topshop @Nordstrom so I thought I would share this one too. It looks quite muted in these photos, but it really shimmers and is more striking in person. I love the way this dress looks with a tan and ...
Wednesdays in White
Thank you for all of your feedback on getting back to the DSLR photos! Kevin has been a champ dealing with taking these every morning while holding Harper on his hip, so if there's anyone to thank for no more mirror photos, it's him! I pretty much compulsively buy white dresses and this J.Crew bow-back dress from a couple of years ago is a ...
Recent Purchases + Haul Video
After sharing my hair tutorial video recently on my YouTube channel, I got a lot of sweet notes and wonderful feedback about making more of an effort to keep my channel up. I promised to try and film one video per month so I shared some recent purchases today in a "haul video" (I still think that's a bit of a funny term, but it is what it is). You ...
A Jeweled Collar
Did y'all know that J.Crew changed the design of their No. 2 pencil skirt? What the heck! Aside from the fact that they wrinkle like crazy from sitting/general wear, they are nearly perfect in terms of fit. Now, to be fair, I haven't tried the new style on, so I could very well like them as much or more, but the feedback I've gotten so far has not ...
Lace + Chambray
I'm having a lot of my favorite work dresses altered at the tailor this week so sign me up for a week full of skirts! This navy blue lace skirt from Zara has been one of my most favorite pieces for a few years now. It's so feminine and easy to wear. I've also been wearing my Vince Camuto Effel sandals like crazy. They're SO comfortable. ...
Black With a Flare
I'm still on my dress streak and I've been loving fuller skirts lately. Over the years, I've worn this Club Monaco dress too many times to count. It's such a substantial cotton---but still feels airy enough for these hot and humid days. I also have to acknowledge my gold key necklace. This is a super old find from F21 that I got for like $4. I ...
A Full White Dress
I love a white dress. Over a month ago I tried this one at at Gap. I loved it, but wanted to order the tall version since I needed the extra length. It looks like a lot of other people loved this dress too because it was on backorder. It finally arrived last week and I love it just as much as when I first tried it on! The full skirt is so ...
Three [Great] Purchases
Lately I've been really trying to pare down my closet. What I notice is that I tend to wear the same pieces over and over and some are left collecting dust…sometimes for a year or more (cue my embarrassment here). I've been giving away pieces I never wear to friends or donating them to charity. The items I give away actually prompt me to evaluate ...
