Reality Bites.
Every so often I get a wild hair to wear these hideously awesome boots from the 12th grade. Yes, I help people part ways with their unworn clothing as a profession, but I do feel there are a few key pieces no one should ever throw out, even if they languish for years collecting dust. […]
New Hat and an Outfit for Brad
I finally found a hat that doesn’t make me look completely like a little boy with a peanut for a head (only partially). Hooray! I thought this would be a good outfit to wear for meeting Brad Goreski, the most adorable stylist around, and a fellow die-hard color fanatic. I got offered to interview him, […]
Velvet Hangers Before & After
I’ve been meaning to post about my late-night closet redo for some time now, and today seems like the perfect day! See how awful my closet used to look? So many hangers, so little color coordination. I’d been thinking about getting those super thin “huggable” hangers for a while, and when they came in the […]
Hey, Shorty
It’s nearly shorts season full-time round these parts and I am already stressed out about running out of warm-weather options. This sweater-loving girl gets a little anxious this time of year. Luckily, it’s still that in-between time when you can wear a sweater WITH your shorts. This is a fleeting 3-5 outfit phase, so don’t […]
Leggy Stripes
This shape of an outfit has edged it’s way into a top place in my heart over the past few months. It’s like the bare-legged version of my swagger-infused outfit, and I feel extra myself when I have a little shift, clunky shoes, and a long necklace or cardigan on. Finding those outfits that say […]
Shiny Shiny Girly Dress
Once in a while a person needs to go out and get all fancy. Even if you live in Austin, and it’s never that fancy anywhere, it’s fun to take it to the nines (or ten) and go all shiny and fuscia-lipped. I found the shoes of my dreams at Last Call the other day, […]
Pastel Brights and Forgotten Shoes
Sometimes I end up wearing many many colors at once, and I look down and sort of giggle all day long. Yesterday was one of those days, and I really did need a giggle or two. I found these sandals squirreled away in the back of my closet, purchased for a wedding and forgotten about, […]
Easy Like Sunday Afternoon
Some days, you just don’t have the time to dress up, especially on a lazy Sunday! That’s when you reach for the sweatpants of dress-up gear: the jersey maxi skirt. I got this one at Target, and it comes in handy when you want to look as if you’re making some sort of an effort […]
Crazy Pant Inspiration
About this time every year I get out the crazy floral pants again…I wore them last year with glee (and a white blouse) and this year with the ever-versatile denim shirt. The denim shirt is a powerful thing. This week I met up with three of my favorite ladies: Michelle, Cristina, and Lauren (all fashionistas) […]
Tackling Sheer Again
Since sheer is everywhere right now, and I happened to stumble into Forever 21 the other day (by accident, of course), I decided to give sheer a go again and this time add an extra challenge: cropped. YIKES. I noticed a lot of super hip-looking girls rocking these all-the-way-buttoned blouses this spring during SXSW, and […]
