Today, I'm talking Pinterest. I am a Pinsomniac. Once I start I can't stop. So much so that my phone app crashes. Does that happen to you? Well, anyhoo, I love Pinterest, and I'm not always on it only because it sucks me in, but it's another place to see what I'm loving and what inspires me. I think it's a place that really takes us to what we "aspire to"… I know for CERTAIN businesses flourish because of it, because of its visual media … [Read more...]
The Black Jumpsuit
I love to talk about building "wardrobes" and classic pieces that have style but yet are timeless. The little black dress is a must have, and I've talked about that before. But what about the LBJ {wink}. I'm talking about a black jumpsuit. Jumpsuits have made a big comeback, but it's something I've loved forever. In fact, I'm embarrassed to say, the piece I'm wearing today I've had in my closet way before the past few years. But like I've … [Read more...]
Traveling? Look At These Bags
Anyone who knows me knows I call myself the "bag whore." I am not kidding you. Bags are my thing. For some women it's shoes, and yes, I can't say I don't love shoes, but there's something about wearing a great bag that I love. I can't have enough. … being my authentic self here… I've gotten messages from people saying I need help (I kid you not!), none needed, thanks! HA! But I look at them as fabulous accessories that have a form and … [Read more...]
Unique Finds: Free People Skirt
I was recently talking to a friend about my style… both for the home and for my wardrobe. So I thought I'd share one of my philosophies on shopping. Because I think I'm a self proclaimed expert at this shopping thing. {wink!} I recently came across this INCREDIBLE amazing skirt from Free People on one of my recent visits to Nordstrom Rack. I wasn't looking for a skirt, especially a pink, fluffy, tulle cotton candy skirt. … [Read more...]
Hairless, Healthy and Fabulous
I recently saw a post come thru my Facebook feed from a sweet friend of mine, Priscilla "Prissy", sharing with us that she just got diagnosed with breast cancer. Amidst a big transition in their lives, a big move from Paris to the US, new jobs, and a mother of 3 little ones, 10, 4, and 1, this came their way. And not JUST breast cancer, but an aggressive form of breast cancer. My heart sank with a feeling like SERIOUSLY? This CAN'T be? This … [Read more...]

Kaftan for the Copacabanna
I wore this dress a few weeks ago that I got a year and a half ago, and my family just looked at me like, "ARE YOU SERIOUS????" They didn't have to say it. It was written across their face. But I didn't care. I bee bopped all over town wearing this mocha flowey "gown". I can't deny I felt eyeballs on me, I think because I looked "different"… but again, seriously, I didn't care one bit. I was walking into Target and saw my reflection in … [Read more...]

Google Glass and Wearable Technology
What do you think about all this wearable technology? First let me say… I remember when the first cell phone came out.. OMG looking back on those what MONSTERS they were… Who remembers that? I think it all began with headgear and headpieces operators used to wear. Remember those? Do they still make them? I wore them when I was a financial planner WAAAAAAY back in the day! LOL!

Hot Pink and Mint
Yesterday I talked about a staple for our closet, the white jean. Just one of many ways to wear it, today I've paired it with a fun new top from BuddyLove and Bow and Arrow. You guys have seen my uniform, so many grey's, neutrals, browns, that this definitely shouted out HAPPINESS and cheer to me. This top instantly made me smile and instantly brought on cheer. It's not neon, but it's not subdued… a perfect color for the … [Read more...]
Poolside to Partyside
When it comes to summer, the thing I think most of is travel… and with that comes packing and my wardrobe. I know I'm the WORST when it comes to packing light. I'm NOT going to deny it. I want to bring extra stuff "JUST IN CASE"… you guys know what I'm talkin about, right??? yah….. uh huh…. you do it too! {wink!} So finding something that can be worn day to night is always a fun thing. I did an outfit like that in Paris for last year, "from … [Read more...]
Blue Simplicity
Having pieces in your closet that are classic that can go for church, a graduation party, a luncheon, a shower are things I love to look for so that when one of those occasions come up, I'm always armed and ready with that perfect piece in my closet. That's what I thought of when I saw this blue dress from Gil's. It is simple, the lines on it are classic, but the fun curved front on the skirt makes it a bit … [Read more...]

Lady In Red
If you've been following me for some time now, you probably have figured out my love of stylish, fashionable, sophisticated classics. Don't confuse classics with boring. There is NOTHING boring about what I'm sharing today! You've seen me share a few ideas on the LBD here, well, today, RED is the new BLACK! Meet the LRD or the little red dress {wink!}. Red seems to be a kind of "va-va-voom" color, and I felt VERY "va-va-voom" in this dress … [Read more...]
Basic Black and White
Classics are classics because they are just that. You can never go wrong by putting together some classic pieces and look stylish and look put together no matter what the occasion. Dress it up or down with your accessories and tweak it to your liking and your personal style. But in my opinion, a crisp white shirt and simple black skirt is one of my can't-go-wrong outfits every girl needs in her wardrobe. My key to take it from OK to WOW is 2 … [Read more...]
The Wedge
Not the salad. Not a slice of pizza. Shoes. Wedge shoes. I have lots of wedges, but today I've picked my slides. One of my favorite pairs I got in Greece last summer at Koniaris is what I'm sharing today, simply because you need to see "my uniform" yet again. (Are you seeing patterns of things I'm drawn to…. over and over and over again?) Neutrals, nudes, whatever you wanna call them. Yeah, that's them. I personally love shoes like these … [Read more...]
A Stylin Friday
You've seen my posts this week about fashion (those of you who have been following me know I don't post about the same topic every day, but this was an unusual week)…. One person commented on Facebook that they didn't see much that was actually wearable. True! Many of the things are really not ready-to-wear, however many were. But the ones that were not, we should look at that fashion as another form of beautiful art. Wouldn't you agree? … [Read more...]
