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?
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.

Another fall fashion trend to try? Menswear for women.
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
