What is it about closets that "have me at HELLO" I have no idea. Is it that I just love the organization of it? That everything seems to have it's place and it seems so "perfect" (because I am a perfectionist)? Is it because it's the "home" for all of the things I find lovely that make us feel great every day, as in our wardrobe? There's something about dream closets I obsess over. And while mine might never look like any of these, a girl … [Read more...]
Closet Classic: White Jeans
One of the "must have's" in our closet is white jeans. We definitely can do em up in cooler weather… they're not exclusive to the warmer months by any means, but it's one of those that I need AT LEAST one pair of.

Mixing Up Staples
Perfect for a spring luncheon, a shower, a graduation party, here's a little ensemble I put together. I used a few staples I have in my closet. A basic white crinkle skirt and my favorite nude shoes.

My skirt I've had for a few years... my first … [Read more...]
