How to: White after Labor Day

If you haven’t already, throw that rule away! You can always wear white after Labor Day. I mean, geeze, it was 90 degrees out when I was taking these pictures, there was NO way I was putting on fall clothes. Honestly, I may even go to the beach this weekend. My rule of thumb is, if I can still wear shorts, I can wear white. And then there’s winter white too. I digress. Now that I’m done with that, lets take a look at this week’s outfit. Blazer: New York and Co., similar, similar | Top: Nordstrom | Shorts: H&M | Shoes:…

Lace and Neutrals

Hi All! For my post today I decided to bring out a feminine lace dress that I’ve been dying to wear. For me, dresses are always harder to style and to really create a look. I mean it’s once piece, what else can you do to pull it together? I thought this hat would look great and give the dress some style. Take a look. Charming Charlie’s, similar | Dress: H&M, similar | Shoes: Stewart Weitzman, similar This is a very feminine look, even for me. But it’s all about having fun and doing different things, right?! This is great for going to lunch or dinner…

Fashion: Work Style

I haven’t had any jewelry inspiration lately, so today I’m going to talk about making your wardrobe part of you “workdrobe.” I think we all have a lot of staple items in our closet, for example, black/white go to blouse, black blazer, black dress pants, and LBD. These items can almost always transition into your work style. Here are a few of my most recent work looks… Blazer: Nasty Gal, similar | Blouse: Forever 21, similar | Pants: H&M | Shoes: Vince Camuto | Bracelets: SimoneJ jewelry Most of these looks are more generic than my usual more…

Fashion Friday: The Boyfriend Jean

It’s Friday the most loved day of the week, DUH. And guess who has the weekend off? ME! Sorry, I worked in retail a long time, it’s hard getting used to having weekends off. It used to be such a luxury. Anyway, on to what you probably thought I’d be talking about, boyfriend jeans. So boyfriend jeans NEVER look cute on me. I have no idea why. I mean what wouldn’t look cute on me. Kidding! HA. So these aren’t jeans you can go out and buy, (sorry) I had to cut them myself. (Annoying) We’ll lets take a look..…
