Banana Republic is a whole vibe right now and I’m loving it! The company known for their passion for expedition-wear from faraway places is yet again giving it’s own 90s Preppy Safari looks… and though there’s nothing new about it, it somehow feels refreshing again. Though I do love a good “I just got off …
Winter+Spring Outfit Styling Inspo // Cropped Wide Leg White Jeans
Last fall I bought a pair of ivory/white cropped wide leg Levi’s jeans with cute orange and pink and purple “V” stitching detail on the back above the pockets to wear with my brown Dr. Marten boots and rusty warm colored sweaters. However, I never ended up wearing them and they’re sitting in my closet …
Fall Outfit Ideas // White with Rusty Browns, Camel & Tan
In an effort to get excited about fall (ugh) I went to Pinterest and subsequently, Instagram to pull inspiration for fall looks and style and was immediately drawn to a white and camel-rusty brown color palette. What seems like an obvious fall choice, rarely do I think of “white” for fall… but it’s a surprisingly …
Bridgerton Costumes and the Return of the Empire Waist
As I mentioned in a previous post, I have a small, or maybe not so small obsession with the new Netflix show, Bridgerton… and I am to bet that you might be in the midst of the same obsession at the moment because well, we’re still locked down with nowhere to go and nothing to …
Spring Trend Alert // Super Fancy Embellished Slides & Sandals
What really began a few years ago (check out my DIY Spiky Sport sandals – I think they need a fresh makeover) is finally making its way back to the mainstream and after the minimalist phase, I have to say, I’m kind of loving it. Although part of me feels like this trend conjures up …
Fashion Trend Alert // Ultimate ’90s Dad Sneaker ~ Designer Runners
Okay, my initial reaction upon seeing this trend was why the crazy ’90s Dad Sneaker?, but when I thought about it a bit more I couldn’t stop thinking it was a direct throwback to the mid ’90s when it suddenly became trendy (but not fashionable) for “career women” to swap their heels for running shoes …

Music Festival Mainstream: 60’s Flower Child meets 70’s Bohemian meets 90’s Grunge… and I’m in love.
The only time I really find myself wishing I were younger, is when I feel too old to wear certain styles. Yes I was part of the original 90’s grunge era, and it was fun, but this new grungy style mix, and what I’m referring to as Music Festival Mainstream: 60’s Flower Child meets 70’s …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends : 8. Random Ruffles…
With so many clean lines and minimalistic collections on the Spring runways, the random frilly ruffle here and there was like a pop of color in a sea of black and white ensembles. Next up in my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends refresher series is jut that, the random yet large ruffle, that popped up around …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends : 7. Well Suited…
Coming in at number seven in my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends refresher series is a fresh new take on the suit or tuxedo for women. Some designers kept it traditional, others Minimal and some went avant–garde. And I love it. If worn right and fitted to perfection, a woman in a suit and heels is …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends : 6. Leather. Leather. Leather…
It’s always fun to see leather return to the runways and coming in at number six in my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends refresher series is just that. Leather was everywhere and not just in expected wasy like pants, but in all different silhouettes. I’m loving the clean lines of the Celine jacket and must admit …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends : 5. MAJOR STRIPES…
I still have a few more trends to go in my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends refresher series and this one is a FAVORITE! Stripes are always fun and black and white is always classic. The boldness at which these stripes are coming at us just adds to the fun and the Marc Jacobs collection was …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends : 4. Head to Toe COLOR…
While I do love a great monochromatic look, these BOLD and BRIGHT head to toe looks in my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends series may be a bit much for my eye to handle. I love it in gowns and even here, in a few of the suits {like the Gareth Pugh}, but some just miss …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends : 3. Black Sheers: Lace, Mesh, Nets, & Cages…
The third installment of my Spring 2013 Fashion Trends series is deep, dark, sultry, and mysterious, but almost completely wearable sheer black ensembles! It’s so amazing to me how some of the lightest, flowing, and airy fabrics portray such dangerous and powerful auras regardless of the silhouette, don’t you think? These looks are fun because …
Spring 2013 Fashion Trends…
While fashion’s all a buzz with Pre-Fall 2013 collections, I’ve been so preoccupied with decor and home furnishings as of late, and dressing for my new freezing and fun snowy environment, that I have barely been paying attention to anything fashion-related at all {well, other than a bit of shopping here and there ;}. But …
