There have been some big changes in the past few months; an out of state move, selling a house, starting a new job – so that’s why I’ve been so absent! Many of you have asked when I’m coming back … Continue reading
fall preview
Neutrals are big this fall – and two of my favorites, gray and olive green are all over the place right now. These are two colors that don’t take much thought when mixing with any other color on the spectrum.
Gray in many forms feels refined but cool. You can wear one piece alone or mix up shades of gray for a head-to-toe look.
The military look is big right now and of course olive green fits right in with that trend. It’s easy to mix it with almost any color in the spectrum, but pairing it with red may be a bit much, so I caution against that unless the holiday look is what you are trying to achieve.

The other day, I showed you dresses available at Target right now — all under $50. Today I’m bringing you jewelry and shoes available at Target right now — all under $40.
Once again, having a hard time picking favorites, but I personally bought 1, 2, and 4 from the jewelry and 2 (in nude) and 3 (in leopard print) from the shoes. The jewelry is great – the bracelets are a lot of fun and are really cute in person and the necklace is something I’ve been trying to find for a while. I don’t have the shoes yet so we will see if they fit. I’ll let you know. So many great options!

It’s official. It’s spring. Because I said so. As much as I love my boots, sweaters, coats, etc., I’m ready to move on. When the spring stuff starts arriving in stores in January and February, I’m usually not ready for … Continue reading
hello, lover
It’s safe to say Carrie Bradshaw on Sex and the City was obsessed with shoes. The episode where she talks to the shoes through the window saying “Hello lover” is quoted a lot. That’s because shoes are an important part … Continue reading

winter survival tips…
Well, even with the warm weather that floated through the U.S. again this week, we are now back to colder temps (for most of us, anyway!). I can tell a lot of people are itching to get out their spring wardrobe because I’m seeing more and more spring outfits on Pinterest. And the stores have completely put winter clothes to the side to make room for all the pretty spring stuff. But, let’s be realistic. It’s only the end of January. We still have a while to go, people. So, let’s talk about a few ways you can beat back those winter blahs!
1) Winterize a warm weather dress and add a pop of color!
2) Take Care of Your Skin
Winter puts a beating on skin. Make sure you continue to use sunscreen (Yes! Even in the winter.) and properly cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize for your skin type. Aren’t sure of our exact skin type? Click here to figure it out.
4) Paint your nails with some pretty colors.

5) Take advantage of the great winter sales going on right now. Places like J. Crew, Ann Taylor, Loft, Banana Republic, Limited, and others are trying to shove their winter wear out the door with you. Many of them are offering 40 – 60% percent off their already reduced prices! Now is the time to buy winter coats, wool pants and skirts, blazers, and sweaters.
on the cheap
Let me tell you, I like finding a deal more than anyone. I’m not a label snob, although I do appreciate the quality that often comes with the price and name. When I want something that I know will last … Continue reading
