Who says white jeans are just for summer? Not me! Winter whites and the crisp clean monochromatic look of this unexpected color for winter is the perfect statement maker. There's a reason why it was all over the runways at NYFW. It's subtle yet bold at the same time, and has the same power as its opposite color, black. It's sleek, it's sophisticated, it's minimalist, it's perfect! I've put together this great look from CK and Company in Oklahoma … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: The Frenchy
I don't know why I'm feeling Frenchy, but I am. I took those pictures on vacation a couple of summers ago in Paris (pre fancy camera!). Yesterday I posted about the Parisian doors (see that HERE). Today I'm sharing a Parisian drink. The Frenchy. Clever, huh? I didn't make it up, but it DOES put good use out of that fancy pear vodka we used a few weeks ago, remember HERE? Well, with a simple change of one of the juices, bam, we have a whole … [Read more...]
Make A Grand Entrance: Paris Doors
Purchase the print of this beautiful door from Rebecca on Etsy! via via via via "You never get a second chance at a first impression." With home decor, when it comes to doors, nothing could be further from the truth. From the second we walk up to a doorway, we get an impression of what the house will be like inside. And if your goal is to have a grand home, then why not purposely have a grand front door? I … [Read more...]
What To Wear: From Desk To Dinner
As much as I love fashion and style, what I love more about it is how I feel in what I wear. This is one of those dresses that makes me feel as bold as the print is. Color blocking, along with the style and cut of this dress made me feel like I could go from the boardroom to a dinner date. Do you remember THIS post I did for the grand opening of H&M? In the video I took of the event I talked about a dress I wanted to hurry up and snatch … [Read more...]
All Choked Up
One of my favorite outfits in high school, I remember it vividly, was a light pink button down loose fitting rayon blouse, a white mini skirt, and a brass choker. Big bangs were an extra free perk to go along with it! Believe it or not I can't remember the shoes, but I DO vividly remember this brass heavy choker, and what I wouldn't give to still have it now! They're back. What comes around goes around. And seriously you guys, when I said … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Fireball Cider
I'm DYING over here in this Oklahoma heat. Seriously y'all... (ok for me to say that means I'm REALLY talking straight talk!)... it's MID October and I'm going.... bring out the Banana Boat and let's have Pina Coladas poolside? Come on now! We're having temps in the 90's and I can't take it. So I'm FORCING fall with this one. And I got the inspiration from sweet Joanna over at Motherhood & Merlot. Remember that October Scopers thing … [Read more...]
What To Wear: The Cold Shoulder
I've always had a thing for the cold shoulder. No, I'm not blowing you off. The "cold shoulder" is where there's a cut out by the shoulders on a top. It's a unique little touch that revealed a little bit of skin, while covering up. Almost as if you're playing "peek a boo", and a hint of sexy. If you're looking for that kind of feeling, then buy one of these tops. It's how it makes me feel (wink!). Anything revealing any bit of the shoulder … [Read more...]
Step Into My Office: A How To Guide
Work. Do you love what you do for work? The word itself isn't a pleasant thing in my opinion. Even the word "job". I like to use the word "werk", because it has a bit of a kick to it. And also because I don't ever feel like I'm working when I'm working. A big part of loving what we do is do we love the space we've created to in which to actually do the work in? I redid my office last year if you recall, I shared it HERE, and I never … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Salted Caramel White Russian
On one of my recent trips to the liquor store, they had a big barrel at the front of the store full of flavored vodkas at a really good price. There was one that caught my eye that I couldn't pass up. Salted Caramel. I was like SERIOUSLY? I'm obsessed with everything salted caramel. I can't ever pass by dark chocolate and salted caramel bars when I see them at the store. So when I saw this vodka, I had to try it out. Nothing really to … [Read more...]
Celebrity Style: Lauren Conrad
I love to get a sneak peek into the homes of celebrities. Part because a girl can dream, and part because it always gives me inspiration to try something perhaps similar in my home. Not to the scale maybe that these big namers have but just if I can somehow get some sort of ideas to try for myself. It's been a while but I've shared some famous closets and homes in the past and I might be doing some more of that moving forward. It's always fun … [Read more...]
