I don’t know what it is lately, but I have been on a black kick. I’d resisted it for a while, and even wore (gasp!) white on Morrissey’s birthday a while back! Some may say that summer is the worst time to wear black, but I think it brings an unexpected dose of sophistication to […]

Hell hath frozen over people, because I actually wore an outfit that revealed my rarely-seen bellybutton. I would be more ashamed if this outfit didn’t make me feel so good. I loved every second of sharing a narrow slice of midsection to the 104 degree world on Friday. I went to one fun party and […]

There’s nothing that excites me much more than good denim. I mean, have you read my blog? I probably wear jeans 80% of my life, and feel that they are always a wise investment if you find a really great pair. So what could be MORE exciting to a denim fanatic than colored jeans? I […]

Since I haven’t been shopping all that much this year (save for my May binge), I have been repeating my pieces a whole lot, but try to do so in a different way each time. Here’s the top I wore last week, and also layered here, with the skirt I wore with Chucks during SXSW. […]

I had high hopes for this trip! I really thought about what I wanted to wear, and I even had a color theme to make my life easier when I arrived. I filled my carry-on with all of my favorite red, black, and navy items, with some fun patterns and layers thrown in for some […]

It’s difficult to write about a weekend that just happened, especially after having just returned home on a red eye flight with a grandly dysfunctional layover in Minnesota. Today I will try to show you some of the stuff I saw this week, and tomorrow I will tell you more about the style, so if […]

I’m posting today from sunny California, where the weather is too chilly for this outfit from last week. It’s weird how you totally forget what normal weather feels like until you experience it again. I can’t really imagine a more perfect climate than California, actually, though I miss looking at my recently planted tropical plants […]

Last week a client and I shared a wonderful a-ha moment when we discovered that her skirts look best when they are sitting higher than usual, on her natural waist. It’s a beautiful day when you find the clothing that makes you feel lighter and happier, and sometimes that involves discovering long-ignored body parts! I […]
