Dressy Casual: Glasses Edition

Sometimes you’ve got a few daytime meetings to go to and you want to look put-together, not too sweaty, but don’t need to get super dolled up because you live in Austin, after all. I find a great balance to be the sleeveless blouse, cropped jeans, and heels. The blouse is light and breezy, the […]

How to Make Shapeless Work

There are few things I love more than a short mod-shaped dress. This weekend required a little retail therapy, and I didn’t even have to try this baby on to know it was going to become a new favorite. The collar, the pleats? Please. But how do you wear this kind of dress without feeling […]

Fresh and Green

Colored shorts, people. An obvious one for me, of course, but so easy to wear it’s like you don’t even have to think about it. This pair was discovered at Anthropologie, and they are so soft and stretchy that it doesn’t feel like I’m wearing anything when I put these on…okay maybe it sort of […]

Sheerly Sheer

Here I am again, rocking the sheer blouse during the day like I don’t even care! I thought it would be fun to do a little black on black layering, and I was right. The loose blouse is more exciting with this tight little cropped tank underneath, and the high waist of the skirt makes […]

Birthday Gal

Last week I celebrated my birthday by having dinner with some of my favorite people in the universe. It was only fitting that I wear my favorite skirt in the universe! Silk isn’t the best thing to sit in for hours, but this pattern is super forgiving with wrinkles, and who cares about wrinkles when […]

What to Wear to a Summer Wedding

Oh summer weddings. There are so many of you some years! What the heck are you gonna wear when you want to look pretty and fresh and celebratory, but it’s hot as heck? I got a chance to try the following tips out last weekend, when I was lucky enough to attend the beautiful Christina […]

Just a Quick Kiss

From me to you on my birthday. Here’s a little shot of what I wore to my party Saturday night. Dress from Target purchased three hours prior to the party, cowboy boots, Flamenco by Chanel lipstick. That’s how I roll. Thanks to all who helped make this a super special weekend. I loves you! More […]

Striped Shirts and Biz Love

As a small business owner here in Austin, you get a lot of opportunities to hobnob with other business owners. It’s a super supportive community, and we like to help each other out if we can. Helping can be real fun, like when you get to blab about yourself on a fellow biz owner’s blog, […]

Trials and Tribulations: The Silk Top

I am not afraid to admit that silk terrifies me. It’s less scary to admit to things than to wear silk, in my experience. Silk wrinkles when you touch it, shows every speck of liquid it comes into contact with, and it’s expensive, so I hate messing with it. But this pajama-looking top was on […]

How to Wear Jorts Without Dying of Boredom

Austin weather has returned, which means it’s time for endless shorts and sandals again. But what if you want to wear something super comfy casual but want to avoid being bored with your routine tank and cutoffs getup? Look for a jersey tee in a cut that’s a little different than the norm! I found […]
