Bumbrella the Hip Slip

Do you have that one dress hanging in your closet that you just NEVER wear because its just too sheer but you can’t seem to bring yourself to wear a slip? (Last time I wore a slip, I think I was 7-years old and it was my First Communion.) I have that one dress. I bought this awesome dress over five years ago and wore it once for a work event. I was…

Review: SoCozy Hair Products for Kids

Thank you to SoCozy for sponsoring this post. All opinions expressed are mine.  Last year, our then-5th grader decided she wanted to go to sleepaway camp. We did a ton of research, received a lot of direct mail from all these camps and landed on one that we felt was perfect for the girls. I thought that was the hard part of the process. What I didn’t realize was all…

J.McLaughlin Catalina Cloth Collection Perfect for Travel + Holiday Gift Guide

With the holidays coming up and a handful of school breaks not too far after, I am always looking for stylish, travel-friendly and packable styles. I recently went to the J.McLaughlin Spring 2015 Preview and found the most amazing fabric: J.McLaughlin’s Catalina Cloth ™.

Review of the UGG Chancery Boots

My UGG boots are about 4 years old: they’ve got a rip in them, the fleece inside is a little matted down, but it keeps my toes WARM. And with the way the Polar Vortex has been visiting the United States lately, I won’t be throwing them out anytime soon. BUT, I needed something newer looking than my 4-year old UGG classic boots, but something that kep my feet warm…

Textures and Details with the CAbi Collection

Audrey McClelland, Vera Sweeney and Nicole Feliciano invited me to attend a Fall 2014 CAbi Fashion Show. I’ve heard and read about CAbi but never went to a show before. First of all, what a pleasant surprise I had when I saw a familiar face from my corporate marketing days. The creative director of CAbi, Daniele Trussardi, and I worked with several years ago when he and I were both…

Fall Style with the Pure Jill Collection from J.Jill

I’ve been reading one of my favorite childhood books, Anne of Green Gables, by L.M. Montgomery, and one of my favorite quotes from the book is, “I’m so glad that I live in a world where there are Octobers.” Between the apple & pumpkin picking, shopping for Halloween costumes and baking my favorite pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, October can’t get any better. But it can. J.Jill has launched its Pure…

How to Wear White in the Fall

Wearing white post-Labor Day has not been as controversial as it has been when I was growing up where the rule was pretty much tough.  Wear white after Memorial Day. Don’t wear white after Labor Day. Now that the weather is pretty unpredictable, I’m thinking anything goes, especially with fashion. Here’s my take on how to wear white in the fall. This post contains affiliate links for easy shopping! I’m…

How to Wear: White Denim and Chambray

Although I’ve been getting emails for Halloween costumes (on sale!) and it is back-to-school season for half of the United States, it’s still summer out and that means wearing white denim still looks fresh, and seasonally appropriate. I love pairing white denim with denim, and my chambray shirt is a go-to piece in my closet. I like rolling up my sleeves for a super-casual look, and I love being able…

9 Perfect Fall Boots from $45 to $400

It’s August and that means it’s time to start thinking about…FALL BOOTS! I’ve been through this before. I’ve fallen in love with a pair of boots and decided that it’s too warm to even think about buying them. Then it’s October and the pair of boots that I madly fell in love with are GONE. Or they don’t have my size. So, dear reader, I am sparing you the fashion…
