Shopping Indulgence: J Crew Herringbone Tights

Okay, okay, I broke down yesterday and bought something completely overpriced and frivolous. Granted, the final cost was under $25, but it was only for a pair of tights after all – and not even on sale – gasp! I just had to do it though. You see, the J. Crew herringbone tights that I [...]

Pair This with That

I’m a huge fan of mixing high and low fashion. It’s such a great way to pull together a stylish looking outfit, and mixing in the low price items with expensive pieces you own elevates the whole look.  Guiseppe Zanotti’s fall collection includes a pair of black leather peep toes with a zipper-edged rose on [...]

You Got That Where?!

Take a good, long look at these stylish baubles. Lovely, right? If I didn’t know where they came from I probably would have guessed they were sold at J. Crew or Anthropologie and cost somewhere between $40 – $100. I’ve lusted after so many J. Crew and Anthro jewelry pieces that I’ve lost count, yet [...]

Emerson Made

After my last heavy post, I thought I’d pass along a sunny new blog / accessory line I happened to find. The blog, called Emerson Made,  is mainly a marketing tool for a small accessory company of the same name.  Emerson Made somehow manages to be an incredibly lighthearted, whimsical and intriguing despite serving as [...]

New Jewelry Line: Annoushka

While poring over my Women’s Wear Daily, some gorgeous baubles caught my eye and I wanted to share them with you, my fellow fashion lovers.  The jewelry is crafted by new jewelry company Annoushka, which was founded by the same people who created Links of London.  Though the pieces aren’t in stores yet, once they [...]

Style Crush: Emma Watson

So, being the absolute nerd that I am, I’m very excited for the Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince premiere this week.  Not only do I love Harry’s character, but Hermoine is one of my favorite characters in a series – she’s smart, sassy and brave; the perfect strong female character. Emma Watson depicts [...]

American Classic

I swooned when I saw the ensemble featured on Shop Bop’s front page today – it looks like something off a Michael Kor’s or Ralph Lauren runway. I just love the American classic style, and have always been a sucker for nautical navy and white stripes. Two items stick out in this styling that really [...]

I Want.

J. Crew, how I love thee. Your beautiful sorbet summer hues, classic clothing with a touch of sass, and Americana basics are just the things I want to fill my wardrobe {regardless of the fact that it’s already bursting at the closet doors}.  And of all the lovely things in your store, these shoes have [...]

If I Had a British Wedding To Attend…

…I would most certainly wear a fabulous feather hair piece.  Mike thinks I’m crazy for wanting to put large feathered (or silk flowered) objects in my hair, and sadly I can’t seem to impress upon him how fabulous it looks.  Feathered flowers and other millinery is just so unnecessarily frivolous, which is what makes it [...]

Stunning Summer Sandals

For those of you who are wondering what to wear underneath your lovely maxi dresses, the best shoe to pair them with is a summer sandal. Though I adore flats, I just don’t think they look right with a patio dress – unless they are super strappy and open toed, at least. The best summer [...]
