If you’re going to invest in a summer staple, now is the time!

July 28, 2018 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

There’s always this odd time in the middle of a season when it becomes hard to shop. By now, retailers are starting to move out summer clothes to make room for pre-fall items. Personally? I tend to hunker down once we’ve hit the mid-season slump, saving my money for fall.  But, if you’re looking for staples—easy pieces that pull outfits together—to add to your closet, now is the time to Continue Reading

Latest obsession: straight leg jeans. But how to wear them?

June 12, 2018 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

I am a jeans adorer. Most days, you’ll find me in skinny jeans, a tee, and sandals because jeans are both classic and chic—and go with everything. Typically, skinny jeans are my go to. I have ‘em in all different washes and in various distress levels. Ripped knees; ripped knees and thighs; no rips; distressed hem. You name it, I probably have it. (Also. I’d be a very rich woman by now if I had a Continue Reading

Money saving hacks to keep shopping the brands you love

May 12, 2018 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

Who doesn’t love saving money when shopping? I’m not gonna lie—convince often times keeps me from pursuing the cheapest option. For example—culling through racks at T.J.Maxx, Goodwill, and Ross WILL find me fashionable clothing for less. But! It takes determination and focus. (Two things I lack when shopping.) I want ease. I want space. I want visuals. Department stores attract shoppers with these Continue Reading

Denim

April 16, 2018 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

One of the hardest things to shop for? Jeans. Am I right? Not only can they be unforgiving, they can also be expensive. Thankfully, however, retailers are understanding our plight and are offering a wide range of styles for a wide range of prices. This spring, I’m looking to fill my jean wardrobe with a few of spring’s latest trends. On a budget. Here are the three styles I’m looking to shop Continue Reading

When in Doubt: Monogram It

February 9, 2018 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

There’s something classy about monograming, don’t you think? Putting your initials on an item instantly takes it from a generic trend to individual style. Nowadays, you can monogram just about anything—mugs, pillow cases, plates, keychains, purses, jackets, even jeans. And thanks to stores like J.Crew and Madewell, monogramming is as easy as 1-2-3. When it comes to monogramming at J.Crew, Continue Reading

Universal Thread: Target’s Latest Collection

January 19, 2018 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

Denim is such a staple nowadays in anyone’s closet. Denim for casual days; denim for work days; denim for date nights; denim for girl’s nights. Whatever the occasion, there’s a style of denim for it. But, unlike sweatpants, denim isn’t a one-size-fits-all item of clothing, making it hard to shop for. Plus, well-fitting and long-lasting denim is often expensive. The solution? Universal Continue Reading

Another fall fashion trend to try? Menswear for women.

October 8, 2017 By Robin Puelma 1 Comment

Have you noticed? I’m slowly going through this season’s latest fall trends. First, it was velvet. Last week, it was plaid. Today’s post? The power suit. Now, to me, the power suit is an 80s flashback; nothing but shoulder pads, wide ties, and pinstripes. But like most styles that come back around, there’s always a twist. And this season’s twist on the power suit is a nod to menswear scattered all Continue Reading

Favorite Fall Trends: Velvet Everything

September 24, 2017 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

One of my most favorite trends for this fall is velvet. It’s luxe; it’s sophisticated; it’s classy. And? It’s everywhere. Which means you can wear velvet morning, noon, and night and no one will question you. While the trend took off in 2016, it’s here to stay this season with a slightly elevated twist. We’re talking tailored suits, full skirts, platform sandals, elegant dresses, ankle booties, Continue Reading

Transitional pieces — wear now; wear later

August 14, 2017 By Robin Puelma Leave a Comment

With August slipping by and September coming soon, transitional pieces are on my mind. Wear now, wear later. True, weather here never quite feels like fall until November. But! With the right pieces, you can transition your wardrobe from summer to autumn without too much bulk or too much money. Sounds like a win-win to me. So, where to begin? Let’s start from the top down. The hat. Time to Continue Reading
