here we are, the third and final look in the series one flannel, three ways -- what i like to call my "date night outfit." truth be told, i wore this look out to dinner on saturday evening with S and my parents. if you hadn't realized by now, i'm a big fan of the high-rise ...
if you're just tuning in, this is look #2 of a three-look series featuring my new j.crew flannel (view look #1 here) -"one flannel, three ways." the next way i paired the blue and red button-down was with a flirty skirt and booties. maybe it's the primary colors, but this outfit feels very school-girl to me. ...
it's officially flannel season (hip, hip, hooray!). to celebrate, i recently picked up a new blue and red patterned one from j.crew to add to my collection. normally, my default way to wear flannel is paired with my medium-wash gap always skinny jeans, but in assessing my closet, i soon realized just how versatile it ...
when i was in school, making the transition from summer to fall was always bittersweet. while i loved school (i really did, i used to cry when i had to take a sick day!), saying goodbye to summer vacation was never easy. now that i'm an adult, i relish in fall's triumphant return. mostly because ...
as i mentioned before, we won't be taking our real honeymoon until july (and it's official, we booked it last month!) but we of course wanted to take a little time to relax and enjoy our first days as husband and wife. so we booked what we're lovingly referring to as our "mini moon" at rancho bernardo ...
happy new year's eve, y'all! can you believe it's already time to say goodbye to another year? in anticipation of its closing, i penned a little message (and recap of) to the year 2015. enjoy! dear 2015, you were a blur. i know that's cliche to say but it's honestly how i feel. somewhere between ringing in your ...
hello my loves! it's hump day! to celebrate, i fixed you up a hump day treat. today i teamed up with miss carylee of more pieces of me to bring you a little mid-week style inspiration. after last week's flannel feature, i loved the idea of taking one closet staple and styling it for different occasions. this week's focus? ...
we made it -- happy friday, loves! i must say, it has been a relatively quiet week and i'm very much looking forward to that trend rolling right into my weekend. other than S and i getting gussied up for a wedding on sunday evening (see items #5 & #6), we're pretty much laying low. ...
with new york fashion week kicking off tomorrow and on the heels of some pretty spectacular labor day weekend sales, i'm feeling quite ready to embrace fall fashion once again (though i'm never not ready for boots, scarves, sweaters, and tights). if only the weather would cooperate... so to prepare for the best season of the year (IMHO), i treated ...
since the weather today is finally starting to feel a little like fall, i thought it quite apropos to discuss my affections for autumnal dressing -in particular my love affair with all things plaid. my madness for plaidness, if you will. i love it for blouses and trousers and skirts and most definitely on members of the ...
