I probably should have titled this post "Apparently Its Spring", seeing as how I spent about 15 minutes total in the glorious California sunshine today. The majority of my waking hours were s...
Yesterday I braved the mall with my momma for the years least enjoyable shopping trip, The Dreaded Annual Swimsuit Shopping Run. I dont think it matters what size or shape you are - swimsuit sh...
I wear heels - high, like 4" inches or higher - heels for extended periods of time on an almost daily basis. And I get asked surprisingly often, "How do you do that?" or hear "I...
My somewhat sudden and relatively lengthy hiatus from the fashion blog-o-sphere has left me a little disoriented. For a minute there pre-hiatus, I was feeling like I had begun to finally figure out t...
This is probably technically cheating, but please indulge me for a minute. Youve already seen this outfit here (in good old mirror shot form) and these shoes here. But youve never seen them TOGETHER,...
MJ of Teaching in Heels is one of my favorite SoCal bloggers. Shes incredibly sweet and stylish, and her adorable blog never fails to perk me up. Needless to say, I was thrilled when she offered up h...
I couldnt have been happier when another one of my favorite bloggers, Lydia of Shopping and Spreadsheets, answered my SOS call. Im going to be perfectly honest when I say Lydia had me at her awesome ...
Meet Sorren of Classic Noise, my Canadian girl crush. Not only is she incredibly stylish, more photogenic than one human should be and have an extremely cool name, shes also witty and well-spoken and...
I dont know if you recall, but a few months ago, I did my very first guest post over at Jens previous blog, The Art of Being You. I had such fun writing for her (plus, shes a total sweetheart) and I ...
The image on the right is what Ive looked like every night after work this week - exhaustedI know Ive been conspicuously MIA this last week, and I am so incredibly sorry! Ive missed you lovelies like...
I was thrilled when the lovely Jess of Thula Jewelry reached out to me about sponsoring Honestly Kristen. I got even more excited when I visited her shop and fell in love with her simple yet stunning...
This is about as festive as I get for St. Patricks Day. Green isnt really a staple in my closet, so I was thrilled to remember I picked up this Old Navy blouse a few weeks ago. Pinching problem solve...
As you can see, my apartment has been taken over by one roommate moving out and another one moving in. A massive pile of furniture has commandeered my living room for the next few days and instead of...
Like the new photo spot? I had to get creative after my roommates moving boxes have been occupying my usual outfit taking location for the last 72 hours.Please excuse the slight grainy-ness of these ...
To say I freaked out a bit when Lauren from Olive & Bleu emailed me to inform Id won her $50 Anthropologie gift card giveaway would be an understatement. I was at a red light, checking emails whe...
My original plan was to do an outfit post for today, but when I woke up this morning, my roommates (very heavy) moving boxes had taken over my usual outfit photo spot. I was a little disappointed abo...
No, Adele isnt some hot new designer collaboration at Target, nor it is an incredible new cheek stain from Sephora. Adele is my current musical obsession, and her new album 21 hasnt come out of my CD...
I was beyond flattered when the incredibly sweet & very talented Jenna asked if she could feature me on Smarter.coms Fashion and Beauty blog. Oh, and if you have a minute, check out Jennas corner...
Something about the combination of this army green faux-silk button down and the rhinestone necklace, paired with denim made me feel a bit like Jenna Lyons on Friday. Im normally not one of those gir...
Yup, these are totally what you think they are: iPhone photos. Work has been insane lately and I find myself in the office earlier and earlier, which means Ive traded my usual morning routine of taki...
As always, lets begin with the good: Mila Kunis in Elie Saab was my favorite of the night, hands down. Loved how it was simultaneously sweet, sexy, and stylish. Perfection. Take note, fourteen y...
Since California has been far too cold for peep-toes lately, I figured the Pradas needed their own post or else they wouldnt make the blog for awhile (and you have not been shy about asking to see th...
Todays my twenty third birthday. In a little less than two hours, I will officially be 23 - one step closer to my mid-twenties.Honestly, I didnt have very high expectations for this birthday. Typical...
I dont know if youre familiar with the Xbox Kinect video game thing. Its like the Wii, except you dont even need remotes. It just senses your body movement and controls the game that way. Weird? Yes....
But wait a minute, youre thinking, Kristens in her apartment? Right you are. Technically, I AM in Arizona right now, but I had thirty minutes to kill yesterday before I left for the airport, so like ...
Lets pretend Im wearing skinnies with this outfit, rather than these straight leg jeans, okay? You wouldnt think the silhouette of the leg could make such a difference, but it does. IT DOES. And whil...
The dress Im wearing today? It was the first dress I ever wore to the office. Yup, way back when I was a wee little intern (about 2.5 years ago), I didnt quite have the same office style I have today...
I didnt plan on putting this somewhat romantic outfit together for Valentines Day. It just kind of happened. I bought myself these nude Franco Sarto pumps as a Valentines present and immediately had ...
I was extremely flattered when the incredibly sweet Jennifer over at The Art of Being You asked me to write a guest post on dressing stylishly at the office. It was my first guest post ever and I had...
On Friday, I had to be in the office at the ungodly hour of 7 AM. I swear Im a morning person, but Im also a schedule person, so when my usual sleep schedule gets interrupted, I am not the happiest o...
