I traveled to Chicago for Blogher 2013 last week and took some pics of a few of my outfits. I was quite happy that I managed only a carry-on sized bag for the conference and didn't need to use my second duffel that I had packed on the route home. It was also the first year that I didn't buy anything new to wear to the event. No costumes, sweet dresses or anything else were needed. When I mentioned on Twitter that I had packed only two pairs of shoes my friend Jodi declared, "Two pairs of shoes for BlogHer? You win at life." Maybe just in packing skills.

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday- Summer Days
We've been having a real laid-back life here lately. It's what we need and what summer is all about. I think that if you can grab that time, then go for it. Since a majority of my time is being spent at swim lessons by the pool or hosting kids at my house, I'm not into layering accessories or wearing a whole lot more than shirts and shorts. This happened- … [Read more...]
Whatcha Wearing Wednesday
Just back from a week long vacation spent in the sun, at the pool and on the beach, I have no inspiring outfits to show from the whole trip. It was just me and my bathing suits each day with various pairs of aviator, Jackie O sunglasses and hats put on for cover. I may look tan but it is really just one giant freckle glommed together despite SPF slathered on from head to toe. I wore the heck out of that swimsuit! I packed at least two others but found this one just made me happy each time I wore it. It wasn't until the second time that I realized it was a yellow polka-dot bikini. Beach day! We spent a gorgeous day in the ocean until dark clouds approached and soaked us to the skin just before reaching the car. One of our favorite days away. Home again, getting … [Read more...]

Watcha Wearing Wednesday-Royal Purple
Long ago I bought this royal purple dress and thought it would make the perfect throw on and go sundress. Meh. I love the color on the hanger but I can't tell you how many times I have pulled it out only to put it back in the closet and wear something else. Here I am in 2011 at Blogher, San Diego wearing it for the first time. Oy. Looks like Mommy went on a little business trip. Heh. … [Read more...]

What I Wore Wednesday
It's time for this week's edition of awkward photos and What I Wore Wednesday! It seems hard enough lately to remember to take a picture of what I'm wearing. Besides lately it's been rather practical for working out, preschool drop off and cleaning the house. I promise I'll take a date night pic this weekend. … [Read more...]
Colored Moto & Bomber Jackets Under $100
I've been in love with motorcycle jackets and short leather bombers ever since I can remember. The one time I found a black one at Contempo Casuals in the mid 90s was like a dream come true. I was my very own version of Bridget Fonda from 'Singles'. I have a different version these days that I found at my local Target and it makes me happy and gives my outfits a bit of an edge every time I wear it. I love that they are back and in a variety of colors too. Here are my faves all at accessible stores and under $100. … [Read more...]
