Boho Print & OTK Boots
Typically I steer clear of overly bold patterns or clothing pieces that are really loud. They use make me a bit nervous and if/when I would wear something more noticeable, I was always wondering if people were looking at me like 'what the heck was she thinking!?' That...
Grey Day
It is no secret to anyone that grey is my color. Kyle is quick to comment every time a new grey sweater comes in the mail or he sees me pop the tag off of a grey v-neck tee. No apologies here. Sometimes you find something that is so you and you just stick with it. For...
Haute Bauble Basics
I'm someone who typically wears minimal jewelry. About 75% of the time you'll find me accessorizing my outfits with what I dub my 'essentials' that include my wedding ring, pearl & diamond studs, this Infinity ring, and a gold bar necklace that Kyle had engraved...
Valentine’s Day: Classy Evening
For my last Valentine's Day look I wanted to do something show-stopping. Not everyone is like me and wants to stay in wearing an outfit like this and others venture out on dinner dates dressed like this quite often, so they'd prefer to amp it up a bit on this special...
Valentine’s Day: Simple Dinner Date
After Monday's post I just wanted to clarify that I definitely do not hate Valentine's Day and I totally do not hate love. I LOVE love actually. I just think we should tell our significant others and those that mean a lot to us how much we love and appreciate them on...
Valentine’s Day: A Night In
It's interesting the way our view changes on holidays like Valentine's Day as we get older. I've never been one to give the day much thought because as cheesy as it may sound, I think love should be celebrated every day. I also don't think your love for someone is...
Olive Tunic
Am I the only one who is super happy that January is over?? I've seen posts referring to January as the Monday of the months and I can totally relate. Sure we set our New Year intentions during the first 31 days of a new calendar year and positive {and negative}...
Wool Polka Dots
Sometimes we find pieces of clothing that are totally different than anything we own so we pass them by without much thought, even though they may be perfect for us. With my current wardrobe consisting of mostly neutral tones, lots of cowl necks & oversized tops,...
Buffalo Checks + Faux Fur
Long gone {but not forgotten} are my college days when I could've cared less what the weather was like outside when choosing my weekend attire. How I ever managed to walk up & down Welch Avenue in 4" heels with snow/ice all over the ground is beyond me. Often...
Coat Cravings
It is no secret to anyone that a majority of the country is experiencing frigid temperatures and snow storm after snow storm. With the days constantly cloudy and no end in sight, I cannot help but crave SUN. I mean I'm in some need of massive quantities of Vitamin D!...
