Summer Statement Tops

I LOVE separates and I love texture, and more importantly, I love a statement top. So I decided to round up a bunch of really cute tops to have in your closet that you can throw on with jeans for a summer date night and still make a statement, or pair with skirts and dress pants for something a little dressier like a shower or function. Personally, I love a fancy top that you can wear with shorts or jeans,…

Madewell Favorites

Madewell jeans are truly the best fitting high waist jeans ever. For everyone. Every body type. Especially mine. They understand that some people need high waisted jeans, and raised the stakes coming out with the 10 inch rise. This is the one I need because I have a long torso and the 9 inch just isn’t tall enough. There is always enough stretch in the thigh and crotch, and always always gives you a butt. No matter what. I’ve been…

Mother’s Day Gift Ideas: Something Charming

You might have remembered my Valentine’s post with James Avery, where I talked about how sentimental and special this brand is to me. I just love browsing the site, and while doing so, had a great idea. Since you can cater to the recipient because James Avery has so many pieces to choose from, I thought this was the perfect idea for a Mother’s Day gift idea. Mother’s Day never has to be extravagant. My favorite things to get are…

NYFW: How To Look Chic While Layering

Since I live for layering in general, I figured I would dedicate a post to it. I do get questions on how to look chic doing this or that, and it’s definitely about well placed details. My fur coat is what saves me when its bitter cold, so I would say first, pick a really warm coat that also looks good on. The one I brought to New York with me honestly is the warmest ever. It’s fox and blocks…

Fringe Sleeves

Sometimes you just have to spice up your wardrobe with details that you love. And for me, that is anything with ruffles, shimmer, fringe, or pom poms. Today’s top is a little different but it caught my eye and reminded me of baton twirlers. This fringe sleeve top is actually a bodysuit which don’t always do well for long-torso people like myself, but I went for it. The fringe sleeve is of course not practical but looks cute, and sometimes,…

Blazer Dayz

One of the most classic outfits is jeans, a tee, and a blazer. You can literally be wearing any tee (casual or dressy), any jeans (I would do a skinny or not too sloppy), and adding a blazer is the perfect finish! AND guess where this one is from?!? Target, people! I love the style because it’s the perfect cut and on trend, as it’s a little longer, but perfectly fitted in the arms and top. If you look closely…
