Femininity is a huge look this spring. We're seeing florals, and ruffles and light and airy colors. So today I've pulled a few ruffled tops that would be great with a pair of blue jeans (like I'm wearing), to white jeans (my ultimate favorite!), to shorts, to flared pants. It's a great mix and match type of piece that gives a feminine touch to a look you're going for. I've paired my blush top with a Valentino pink clutch, a … [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: Joggers and a Graphic-T
This weather is just not wanting to make up it's mind. One day it's in the 90's, and the next it's in the 60's. So how's a girl to dress? Technically, it's not OFFICIALLY fall, but with the drops in temps, and the fact that it's post Labor Day, we know we need to be more "fall-ish". So shopping my closet, picking my olive green satin cargo joggers I got last summer at Zara in Greece, I paired it with one of my favorite love T-shirts from … [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...]
Think Pink: This and That
Pink isn't just for the summer months. I'm loving this pale shade of pink I call "blush". "Blush" pink can be as versatile as black. Wear it with jeans, with black, with chocolate browns and grays. Here are a few I've pulled together that can be thrown into your look for a bit of "freshness". If you wanted some ideas for Valentine's Day gifts that wasn't for lovers but maybe for your mother, daughter, sister, or bff, these might make some … [Read more...]
Gifting Guide: Coffee Table Books
Coffee table books in my opinion make fantastic gifts. I've gotten several in the past and I LOVE em. Partly because they reflect something about ME (the gals bought books they knew I'd love), and partly because they help beautify my home. Beautiful books are simply lovely. (images via Pinterest) (image via me) If there is someone on your list that you might not know … [Read more...]
