style, stories & everything in between
is there anything more whimsical than a tulle skirt?! in honor of our 1st wedding anniversary on sunday, S and i got gussied up for a nice dinner out on the town on saturday night. i took the occasion as the perfect opportunity to get extra mileage of my "adult tutu" (as i lovingly refer ...
it's been a while! i'm back with a few new outfits this week that i'm really excited to share. this first one features one of my recent purchases -a pair of everlane's highly-acclaimed boss boots. i had to wait months for these babies to come back in stock but i'll have to say, they were well worth ...
my apologies for the radio silence last week, i was hit with the plague and spent my entire new year's weekend in the horizontal position on the couch, going through kleenex boxes like it was my job. THANKFULLY i am on the mend and S and i were finally able to get out of the ...
whenever i think of the phrase "travel style" i immediately envision those spreads in the gossip magazines of victoria beckham and rosie huntington-whiteley walking through the airport in their big black sunglasses and some sort of terribly chic outfit that includes stilettos and a perfectly tailored blazer. while i'd like to *think* i could look ...

for christmas, my mother-in-law and i surprised S and his dad with tickets to an NHL hockey game featuring a match-up of their two favorite teams -the anaheim ducks and the los angeles kings. though i grew up loving the mighty ducks trilogy (gordon bombay forever), my loyalty will forever lie with the kings as it is ...
one of the biggest things i consider before purchasing a garment is its versatility. can it fit in the many aspects of my life? is it a piece i can remix over and over again to create fun and interesting outfits? and given that i live in san diego (where all four seasons kind of ...
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 ...
it was inevitable. after becoming obsessed with the wide-leg pant silhouette, it was only a matter of time before i translated that love into my jean collection. after spotting wide-leg cropped jeans on one of my instagram girl crushes, i decided to try the style for myself, snagging these on MAJOR sale after the holidays. madewell ...
