This has been probably the most gorgeous winter in my entire lifetime of winter memories, weather-wise. This 72 degrees business is a far cry from frozen water heaters, 8 feet of snow, no septic tank, and intermittent electricity! If I still lived in Maine or New York I would have to wait til May to […]

I haven’t done a date post in a while, but since Cathy has requested it of me, I am here to deliver. I do whatever Cathy says because otherwise she threatens to steal my cardigans. ANYWAY, I think it was worth the wait, right? Wintertime dates are tricky because sometimes they require covering yourself with […]

I went out with some buddies last night, first for a catch-up happy hour, and then to try a new restaurant with another friend. I needed something comfy since it was raining, but something fun because who better to look fun for than the ladies? They are usually the only ones who really notice anyway, […]

If I had a nickel for every client who has told me she selects her shirts around how she feels about her belly (that day or in general) I would have lots of cents! My task is show how a belly can can be concealed without giving off that pregnant hippie vibe many women who […]

I don’t usually find myself doing a whole lot of editorial styling, but every so often a fun opportunity comes along that I can’t say no to. Styling for photoshoots is stressful to me because I never know how the pieces will fit until the last minute, there is always a huge fear that none […]

There is certainly something to be said for feeling overdone, especially in Austin, where people go to the store in sweats all the time. But sometimes an outfit doesn’t look quite done until you add one more thing, and […]

Weeee! It got cold again today! Cold enough to wear some cozy layers over my trusty maxi-dress. What is more comfortable than an ankle-length sweater? Not much, I tell you. When you’re trying to think of new ways to wear your maxi dress think cardigans, crew-necks, and scarves. They can change the outfit completely, and […]

I haven’t worn this blouse in what seems like forever! I think it’s because it has this annoying elastic along the bottom waistband: one of my biggest pet peeves as a stylist. I am not certain who exactly is made for the elastic waistband that many otherwise adorable shirts possess, but they can be a […]

What do you do when you have this really crazily-printed cardigan and you want to wear something with it that’s a little different than just jeans? Well, why not try a black dress with some complimentarily colored tights? The outfit is simple but still interesting and step more exciting than if you’d just worn regular […]

Another day, another way to layer a button down with your sweater. I doled out a few layering tips for you yesterday, and today I’m pulling together another outfit that balances out the length of the shirt with some heeled ankle boots, and creates an interesting silhouette with the boxy top and slim cropped pants.
