style, stories & everything in between
for a gal that never brought a jacket to anything ("i'll just think warm thoughts"), i'm all about outerwear this season. perhaps it's the fact that i'm not having to think about "dressy" jackets to go over office-appropriate fashion or that for the first time in a while, we're experiencing winter-type weather, but whatever the ...
we took our photos for this year's christmas cards on saturday afternoon (i can't wait to share them!). i left the outfit selecting to my instagram community and of the four choices, this overalls/chambray combination won by a landslide. which is just as well since i could easily declare 2018 as the year of the ...
in anticipation of sweater season, i recently ordered this ribbed cardigan from j.crew's point sur collection. when it arrived, i wasn't 100% convinced it was a piece i could see living in my closet. so after hemming and hawing over whether or not to return it, i decided to try my hand at styling it ...
after realizing that this recently ordered cardigan came with an unwanted accessory -a plastic security tag! -i popped into my local j.crew store on monday to have it removed. with the afternoon at my disposal, i opted to stay and peruse a few goodies from the brand's latest collection. let's just say i ended up ...
since my style is about to get a heck of a lot more casual, i figured it might be time to add a couple more pairs of jeans into the mix since i have no doubt i'll be living in a combination of workout leggings and denim. j.crew recently launched more denim styles for the ...
if you haven't noticed, zara has been killing it this season. and by killing it, i mean taking all of my money because their spring collection has been on POINT. after ordering two white eyelet blouses (here & here), i recently ordered a third in a similar style (clearly i have a problem). when it arrived, i ...
technically this post should be titled "the day before easter jumpsuit" but that doesn't quite roll off the tongue as well, now does it? seeing as it's not yet quite warm enough to wear this jumpsuit on its own (spring weather, where are you?), i decided to layer a simple white tee underneath for extra warmth. j.crew jumpsuit (similar) ...
good morning! i'm popping in on a saturday to say happy national stripes day! j.crew created the holiday last year (as you may recall from this post) and they're continuing the tradition in twenty-eighteen. so in honor of the holiday, i'm sharing some of my favorite striped looks i've worn over the years for a ...
summer may still be a few months away, but as far as i'm concerned, i've discovered a little slice of the season with my new pair of madewell's perfect summer jeans. after starting to tire of my skinny jeans, i had been itching to try a new silhouette. enter the perfect summer jean -a "mom jean" ...
our holiday events tend to err on the casual side, so this year, my parents planned on taking S and i out before the christmas whirlwind so we could have the opportunity to get a little fancy. we headed out to our favorite restaurant, vintana, for brussels sprouts (my favorite!) and delicious cocktails (and proper dinners, of ...
