This is probably the cutest thing I’ve seen all day! Special thanks to David the Majestic and Beautiful Laura of Birdie Royale Adornments. The music is Ondulé by Mathieu Boogaerts. I love this video so much – and we had such a great time shooting photo and filming! Yay! Thanks again to Laura and David [...]
I bought Style Statement as the ultimate lifestyle guide/workbook. Danielle LaPorte and Carrie McCarthy put a lot of time and effort into this book and gal pals raved about it. Nothing but glowing reviews and two-word revelations about how people I knew had found their true selves. So when I became so suddenly unemployed, I [...]
I don’t know how many times in the last couple months this thought has run through my head. If I had the cash, I could spend money on this and write about it… if I had the cash I’d do more online browsing… I’d do more in-person shopping… I wonder; Does having a couple extra bills [...]
Not having a whole lot of extra spending money, I’m constantly trying to look for ways to update what I have for cheap. I still love the thrill of a purchase, but I have to be very choosy when it comes to what I’m buying. I’m looking for quality items that work with what I [...]
Since it’s been so rainy, I’m sitting around in my fluffy robe and my fuzzy slippers sipping coffee and making “Love or Lose” lists. I’m doing it because I’m putting off getting dressed… because getting dressed means slopping on my galoshes (GALOSHES!) and trekking out into the rainy, gray yonder. Though I guess it won’t [...]
I recently re-enrolled in French classes – it’s been a long time since I’ve studied the language, but it’s a labor of love and I feel the need to refresh my brain a little on the finer points of French conjugation. To wash away my nerves, I decided to don a plucky little outfit and [...]
How do fashion bloggers do it? Since this girl doesn’t have the reliable income she once did, I have to find a way to be a “fashion” blogger on $100 a month. That means if I want those ‘Vogs everyone is talking about (and I do!) I have to save for OVER three months to [...]
Looking out my office window I can see as the sun comes up on the buildings in our neighborhood, some of them still clothed in shadow. I feel like that’s what this coming fashion year will be for all us girls who loved, but are fatigued of the ultra minimal, paired down, “greige” looks that [...]
Let’s get personal for a minute… I was looking through my Flickr and noting how I had played on my projected 2010 style direction. I was pleased at how I’d presented myself through photo, even though I completely lost track of my anticipated direction. I had a heavy series of outfit posts at the beginning of the [...]
Wow. It seems like this summer has passed so quickly – and today I’m channelling the cusp between two seasons (more on that later). But today is all about the up-and-coming – the looks for fall that fill my brain. I want GRAPHIC. I want ROMANTIC. I want red-orange/oxblood/cinnamon and black. I want black or [...]
