On a recent out of town trip I "acquired" some mix and match pieces at one of my favorite places we don't have in my hometown of Oklahoma City. That would be Zara. Every time I go away to a place where there's a Zara, a visit is a must. I find fabulous pieces that are trendy, stylish, sleek, and go from day to night, casual to professional. So I found a few pieces I could definitely wear separate but for sure loved the … [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...]
Shop Your Closet: DVF Kaftan
When I spot a deal, I grab it and keep it for when I need it. Then, when I need to wear something either for a special occasion or just to have something fresh and different, I just shop my closet. Last time I talked about it HERE, and such was the case with this DVF blue tropical number. I think I got this last winter on sale and snatched it up for a use I KNEW I could find in the future. {wink!} I took this with me … [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...]
Zara Neoprene Dress
This isn't a #tbt Throwback Thursday post, but this fabric and this trend I'm seeing DOES make me think of styles from the past. Neoprene, or as I call it, stretchy bathing-suit type fabric. {wink} I'm seeing it everywhere, and if you haven't yet, you will. Especially for the coming warmer months. In geometric, obscure, and floral prints. Kinda lycra-ish I guess you could say, sucks you in, and kinda pulls you together. At first I was like … [Read more...]
Target Retro Striped Dress
You guys know by now I love knit dresses that I can throw on with some boots, flip flops, sandals, or in the case I'm going to show you today, heels. I think the reason why I love these easy going dresses so much is because they are so versatile. Dress them up, dress them down, they're comfy, easy to pack, and best of all, inexpensive! I call this a retro look because it reminds me of some things I had back in the … [Read more...]
Run Around Town Look
When I have errands to run, but nothing like "appointments" that I have to go to that require me to be "dressed up", I wanna look great and stylish, but at the same time comfy. I don't want to wear sweats, but I want to be casual. Jeans aren't always something I'm reaching for either. So my look has to be one that is cute, fun, comfy, easy going, relaxed, and have some style. Since my "work" is from home, it allows me have looks like this … [Read more...]
Zara in Greece and Fish
I'd like to call this a Flashback Friday post because I'm thinking back to some recent days of shopping in the mother land. And because now that my kids school has begun, it's back to routine and the daily grind of life. Ahhhhh, the reminiscing of days of travel are good feelings, so I plan on sprinkling a bit of that here and there as an escape. After all, who doesn't need an escape every once in a while, right? And being that we all love … [Read more...]
Hiya Stud.
On a recent trip I couldn't help but notice some super trends that really shouted out to me. Gold studs and gold detail. I took these shots at Zara. Forgive my shots for their non-professional look, but I had some jaw-dropping moments, and only took these few shots because the sales ladies were like, "WHAT SHE DOIN????" If you've never been there or heard of it, Zara is some goodness you wanna take home with you everytime you walk into the … [Read more...]
