Spring Refresh & Shopbop Sales Event
Shopbop is having one of their FANTASTIC sales again. I picked out a few items to freshen up my spring wardrobe, let's call it a spring refresh. Original, no? To be able to afford your shopping desires, you can try winning some money on games like 해외토토사이트. It's exactly what I need right now. I've been pushing hard in my daily workouts with the motivation that I need to because in work and my personal life things are not going so stellar. A little kick from the post-workout endorphins is in order. I'm not hustlin' with work because I'm taking care of sick kids, we added spring sports into our schedule, real estate heats up this time of year (that's a great thing!) and we found out last week that our dog, my baby, has congestive heart failure. We are making his last days comfortable … [Read more...]

5 Reasons Rent the Runway is Worth Trying
I've been a fan of Rent the Runway (RTR) for a long time. So much so that I have come to rely on it for business dinners, galas, special events and even a meeting or two. My love for it and its convenience goes beyond pretty dresses. Just look at this tuxedo-style jumpsuit that I wore to a gala I attended with H last Friday. Badgley Mischka 'Emma' Jumpsuit I loved this jumpsuit for a lot of reasons. It has pockets. It's a jumpsuit and not a dress and it shined on its own and didn't require me adding more accessories to it. I felt like I could throw it on and go. The next day I just bagged it up and sent it on its way. It was worn to a real estate gala but it wasn't going to take up any real estate in my closet. BOOM! It's fast and convenient. But you already … [Read more...]
Whatcha Wearing Wednesday: Stripes and Leopard for Spring
Stripes and leopard. It's all about mixing prints and patterns and it isn't as hard as you think. Spring is a great time to experiment. Think about matching a floral pencil skirt with a stripe shirt. Still not sure? Here's an easier way. Start with neutral colors like black, white and navy if you are feeling skittish and work from there. I took my neutral leopard heels and paired them with my tried and true black ankle pants and a new striped shirt I picked up from J.Crew Factory. The stripe shirt gets and update with the ruffle added to the sleeve. Ruffles are really big this spring. Wearing a navy blue multi-strand necklace adds a hint of color while also staying in the neutral zone. I felt like this look was both fresh and classic. It's updated with the ruffles and has an … [Read more...]

My Uniform
They say many designers and fashion editors wear a uniform. A certain combination of clothing that is a mix of form, function and style. I have a uniform too. Emmanuelle Alt, Editor-in-Chief- Vogue, Paris For as long as I can remember I have loved button down shirts. It can't be a tunic or pullover. It has to be a straight up button down. French cuffs? Yeah, I'm fine with that. But I just LOVE a button down- tucked in a variety of ways or not at all. When I'm unsure of what I want to wear, the button down never fails me. It's my uniform. Do you have a uniform? I love a good button down shirt with jeans, slip on sneakers, ballet flats or even heels on some days. The beauty is in the button down. It makes me feel both efficient and sexy all at the same time and with the … [Read more...]
