I recently did something that I knew I should do but was too scared to do ... I added up how much money I spent on clothes and shoes since the beginning of the year. Lets just say, it was eye opening...
... I wore a sweater and boots. In July. Its supposed to heat up a bit more next week, and Im looking forward to it. Sorry for all the non posts. Im so exhausted everyday lately, and to be honest, Iv...
So My Favourite Things asked me to do a Polyvore set for warm weather. This is a bit of a challenge for me, because where I live, its only truly warm about 3 weeks a year. I mean, the days that reach...
This isnt much of a post, but since I started playing around on Polyvore tonight, I decided to share this collage on my blog. This pretty much sums up my current mood lately. All I want to do is wear...
Just a really quick break from my super hectic summer schedule to comment on how much I love lagarconne.coms styling, not that Im the only one. I think I should just hand them my pay check every mont...
I suppose summer is officially here, although youd never know it based on the weather were having. But my workplace is packed with students, and given that Im mentoring a student this summer as well,...
Theres a lot of talk on the internet related to committing to a certain style or finding your personal style. I absolutely love the idea of finding my own style, a style that makes me feel comfortabl...
Have you ever become completely obsessed with a certain fashion item, be it a jacket or a purse or a necklace? To the point where you are constantly thinking about that item and become completely det...
My mom passed away in 2005 after a quick but painful battle with cancer, so she never did have a chance to see me become a mother myself. Ive thought about writing more about her and our relationship...
This past weekend, we went into the city to do some shopping for my upcoming birthday. Ive been dying to visit the Chanel boutique, if only just to touch and drool over things I cannot have, but secr...
Ever since I saw this editorial from Glamour UK several years ago (which Im sure everyone has seen a million times already), Ive been in love with the idea of wide leg jeans. Theres something about a...
Ive dont know whats come over me, but lately Ive developed a bit of a Chanel accessory obsession. Its interesting because my mother was a total flashy, glam, big logos and giant furs kind of woman, a...
Sorry, just a really quick outfit post. If theres one thing Ive learned from Dries van Noten, its to not be afraid of mixing something that seems dressy with something extremely casual (in particular...
Ive been incredibly busy and will continue to be for at least another week or two, so Im being a bit lazy by posting an old picture of an old outfit. I used to love peasant tops like this Etoile one ...
Recently, I was emailing with another blogger, and we were talking about how, in our particular environments, we try not to draw attention to the fact that we have such a great interest in fashion, f...
So Im finally getting my act together and am planning to totally clean out my closet (very slowly) of all the things that have been languishing in my closet for years. I have a lot that I dont think ...
So Ive been thinking a lot about the whole concept of building a lasting wardrobe and what that really means. There has been a lot of discussion about this on various blogs, and its generally agreed ...
So after spending an excessive amount of time looking at street style pictures of Emmanuelle and Geraldine last night, I finally decided to give some of my resulting inspiration a try. Namely, the be...
Yes, much like everyone else in the blogosphere, I have a huge girl crush on Emmanuelle Alt, although my particular crush on her is a rather recent thing. Ive always thought she had great style but n...
So you may remember the Etoile red/navy/white sweater that Ive already devoted 2 posts on. Well, after instantly falling in love with it, first in theory based on pictures on the internet, and then i...
Alright, heres a real picture of the new sweater! I dont think I will wear it as much as the cream version, but I definitely love the color and have to keep it. Its interesting because I saw a tumblr...
So first of all, I clearly havent exactly "slowed down" my posts, like I thought I would! Perhaps I just didnt want to bother with taking real photos ... going through ones archive of photos ...
So I have a confession ... I bought the same sweater in two colors. This particular faux pas is actually two-fold ... not only did I buy multiples, I even settled for the same sweater in a different ...
After semi swearing off skinny jeans, Im suddenly in a jeans kick. At the end of the day, jeans really are the easiest pant option, especially when living with dogs and a kid. Lately Ive been interes...
IM s/s 2008, elle.comHeres an Etoile jacket that Im wearing with an APC dress and Rachel Comey boots. I was obsessed with this jacket at the time, but I dont know if Im feeling such blatant military ...
So I said that I would try to post some of my older items that maybe I dont wear as much anymore, in particular old IM pieces. Well, Im too lazy to take new pictures atm, so I will make due initially...
limi feu & dries van noten; style.comIn my fantasy life, I would have reasons to wear dresses like these. Id also apparently not have a terribly consistent style! Although when you really just take a...
What I wore yesterdaySo I think Im nearing the end of my initial burst of blogging posts. The outfits are starting to get repetitive quickly, and I just dont have much else to say fashion-wise at the...
etoile coat and sweater, current/elliott jeans, repetto loafersThe weather, while still a bit chilly in the mornings, is finally sunny around here. So I think it may be time to put away my winter coa...
My IM cable knit sweater arrived, and unfortunately, this is definitely going back. I really like the fit and style (more fitted and cropped than my previous Etoile sweater without being tight), but ...
