Video: How to Wear a Denim Shirt (3 ways)!

Another week, another video up on Trophy Boutique TV! Since I basically rotate through my 3 different shades of denim shirt each day of the week, I thought I would share all the myriad of ways this magic shirt can be worn. I love the casual but tailored vibe of these things, and they are […]

Cobalt Shorts

Hello, summertime! It’s time to get out that self-tanner again and wear my bright & happy shorts! I love these because they’re high-waisted, stretchy, and a fetching shade of bright cobalt blue. The best shorts flare slightly away from the thigh and dip down long enough to let nothing hang out (obviously). I like to […]

Dressy/Casual: How to Wear a Linen Blazer

I’ve been in hot pursuit of a linen blazer for what seems like eons, but is probably more like 2 years. My dreams came true at Last Call (where so many dreams are made) last week when I found this cropped tuxedo-style linen blazer in my size for next to nothing. In my fantasy world, […]

Maxi Skirt in Winter

Winter isn’t the season you usually think of as being conducive to maxi skirts. Winter generally involves a lot of warm layers, trudging, and sitting around inside, but not this week in Austin!

When to Invest: The Grown-Up Blazer

There comes a time when a grown-up lady needs to invest in grown-up lady clothes, and I’m starting to do this slowly, over the course of the fall, with my trusty Discover card and crossed fingers. I’ve spoken from time to time about investment pieces throughout this blog’s history, but I’ve reached a point in […]

Layered Blazer

I’ve spent an embarrassing number of hours in search of the perfect blazer. This one isn’t perfect, but it is bright orange! To temper the alarming shade, I layered it with cooler colors underneath–the blues balance the brightness nicely. I also like the idea of wearing a denim shirt with a blazer because it dresses […]

Last Days of Summer…

…I hope! I am wearing long sleeves and have all the windows open as I type this, so things are looking better for this tights and cardigan-loving lady. Last week, though, it was still hot and I was still searching for new summer outfits to wear that didn’t make me die of boredom. Printed shorts […]

Boots with Dress Season

It’s that time of year again…You know, when you want it to be fall so you can wear layers, but it’s still 100 degrees outside so it’s impossible to wear anything with sleeves. So therefore, I like to think of this time of year as “boots with dress season.” You can give a little nod […]

Birthday Dress

So it was another birthday last week, and the only thing that softens the pain of getting another year older (besides spending time with the people I love) is getting a new dress. This year my birthday was smack in the middle of the week so it was the perfect time to sneak over to […]

What to Wear to a Presentation

From time to time I give little talks or presentations. I work with companies to give little workshops on style to their employees, and sometimes I’ll pitch services to businesses who need their staff to feel & look better in what they wear to work. Or, sometimes I’ll go to a party and engage the […]
