I’m trying to be extremely careful with what I purchase this fall; this year has taught me I can live on less and there’s some pretty spectacular items already in my closet. But I do see some holes, and I’m trying to purchase higher quality and more timeless pieces to fit those wardrobe gaps. Some…
I just bought the Banana Republic Rorie wedge in gray suede…love the shoes but am having such a hard time styling them for work…know that you’ll have great ideas…thanks for any help you can give me!! Wedges are great because they’re so comfortable and wearable for long periods of time. Gray suede is so beautiful,…
One of the best parts of blogging is getting to know brands on a different level. Not just a label in a boutique or department store, you learn the story behind the name, their purpose, their history, and sometimes, they become friends.

Last year I had the opportunity to head to NYC and style a photoshoot for Foxcroft Collection. I’ve been a fan of their no-iron shirts for a while (and love that they come in Plus and Petite), and it was fun to support them with this project. And it wasn’t any old project either. To…
I have decided to get a new job and find a healthier work environment. Thing is I don’t own a suit and I can’t spend more than $150 on interview clothes. Any suggestions on where to get a suit? While you may luck out on the clearance rack of Ann Taylor or Banana Republic (and…
