I told you you were going to see more off the shoulder tops from me! (wink!) This beauty is so fabulous for a few reasons. One, it's ultra comfortable, soft and flowy. And because of that, it makes me feel feminine yet fierce. The inner feeling you get when you FEEL beautiful inside gives you some sort of super power, don't you think? The second reason why I love this blouse? It's PRICE! You don't hear me talk lots about prices here, but … [Read more...]
What To Wear: Winter Whites
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...]
What To Wear: Weekend Shopping for Sales
With the long holiday weekend coming up, lots of us will be be-bopping around town shopping, either where we live or even out of town. Finding great shopping districts is like finding special hidden gems, and with major sales this time of year, it's a win win for me. And this time of year, shopping for sales and good deals are a must! We all know I love me some sundresses, but being summertime, I'm thinking shorts are part of the summer … [Read more...]
Blush Bags
If you've followed me for any bit of time, you know one of the colors I'm into for many things is nudes. This coming spring, one of the hottest colors you'll see out there is Blush. I consider it an offshoot from the nudes because it goes with just about everything and every skintone, it has that hint of pink that makes it a bit sweeter. So I call it "blush nude" As we're building our wardrobe, planning towards the next season, I think a … [Read more...]
Shop Your Closet: Casual Ponchos
Ponchos have never been a huge thing for me but I do think they look pretty great so I thought I'd try one out. Earlier this winter I stumbled across this fabulous fur hooded poncho at Take Out Treasures in Oklahoma City. Starting out as just a jewelry and accessory store, this gem of a shop has expanded it's offerings to so many more things other than jewelry and accessories. They have a cherry picked selection of clothes, fun gifts, even a … [Read more...]
Shop Your Closet: White Jeans, Fall Not So Fall
Fall is my FAVORITE season of the year. I absolutely LOVE to wear beautiful coats, jeans, boots, and just the whole feeling of the crisp in the air. While we're in the month of October, it's yet to truly feel like fall. We might have had a day or two of cooler weather, but nothing to say it's here to stay. So what to wear on the days where we hit the upper 80's and then some? I pick neutrals in my closet in colors that will keep me cool. … [Read more...]
White on White
You've seen my love for white jeans HERE and HERE, so today I hopped onto the Coast to Coast challenge today pairing whites with whites because I couldn't resist another white jean post. {wink!} I paired white jeans with a t-shirt that's not-so-basic. It's a white T with gold writing for ME, the Western Scout {wink!}, and with that I added a fabulous belt, shoes and bag. Nothing complicated, … [Read more...]
Denim Herve Leger
Herve Leger is a brand known for its classic pieces that don't go out of style, and also for the sexy form fitting ribbed fabric that shows off women's curves in all the right places. What woman doesn't love to feel all that? That is exactly what this outfit made me feel like. Just one of several lines that are found that make a woman feel that way at Liberte' in Oklahoma City in Classen … [Read more...]
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...]
The Uniform Dress
Do you gravitate to one or two particular colors or pieces in your wardrobe? I do. For me, it's either browns or oatmeals and grays in different shades. Simple knit dresses that I can wear to travel, run to the store, meet a friend for lunch, have a business appointment are staples in my closet. I can dress them up or dress them down as much as I like with my accessories. Lately I've been thinking "less is more." You can see a glimpse of … [Read more...]
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. To that, anything can be added. The best part of all this, some of this might be higher dollar, the others, not so much. For real... you'll laugh when you check out my blouse... My skirt I've had for a few years... my first … [Read more...]
Black and White Chevron
The chevron trend is still going on, and I know it won't be too long from now that we will probably be saying, "remember alllllll that chevron?" It will be the 2012-13 fad and will die who knows when. But, for now, I'm loving it! So I'll milk it now as much as I can. Here's a great little outfit for a luncheon, a shopping day, a shower... something that can be worn to lot's of places... Some might wear this little top without a belt as a … [Read more...]
Revelry T Fashion Post
Loving all my T's I've gotten from the fabulous Meg Biram's great and clever Manifesto T's. Each month there's a new shirt with a new word on it. You can see me styling a few others HERE and HERE. April's was REVELRY. There are SO many ways to style a great white T. And if it has GOLD in it? Well.... that just makes it the BOMB of a t-shirt that I won't be able to live with out. Mini-me was my photographer and she went a little camera … [Read more...]
Sunday Dress
Diane von Furstenberg is one of my fave designers. I did a post on here HERE. Her clothes are always on top of style, fashion, and trends without being "trendy". Her clothes can be in my closet for years and they still never lose their look. I recently picked up this number from Cayman's that I shared with you HERE. I paired it with my black patent Luciano Padovan's that I've had for several years... again, some staples I can't … [Read more...]
Lady in Red
Ten days from now we celebrate Valentine's Day. I don't know if you're celebrating with your love, but if you are, and are planning a dinner out on the town, what could be more fitting than fabulous red dress. I put together this little outfit knowing that all these pieces can be worn so many other ways. BCBGMAXAZRIA Dress / Prada shoes / DVF clutch / Adia Kibur cuff / Trina Turk earrings Now, just so you know, I'm a sale girl. The … [Read more...]
It was love at first sight.
This was the first thing in front of me as I was leaving the corridors of the mall restroom.... It was like "FEAST YOUR EYES ON THIS!!!" I about DIED! It attracted me like a magnet to metal and I gravitated to the GOLD letters, not to mention huge PRADA sign on the right display window. This new store, only open for a few weeks in Oklahoma City is going to be THE store to see. I can promise you that! And if you don't live in Oklahoma City, … [Read more...]
Feelin Retro.
After going to the Duran Duran concert last night, still in awe of the Fab Five that I drooled over in jr. high, I couldn't stop singing "The Reflex" all day. So in honor of my nostalgia, I thought I'd share a little retro inspired photo shoot done for Oyster's 100th issue retro story. These images spoke to me. A little Melanie Griffith, "Working Girl" inspired, early 80's. images via … [Read more...]
Color Blocking
Something you will see all over this season... COLOR. You will see me talk about color lots in the coming weeks ahead. I noticed early this year when I went to Target and they were starting to hang decorative props from the ceiling that were all these vibrant colors. The next thing I noticed were some of those same props on their ads on TV. Yup. Color had made its arrival. Not only that, color blocking, where contrasting colors are put … [Read more...]
