Mix & Match Travel Capsule Wardrobe

July 24, 2019

There’s nothing quite as fabulous as going on vacation, yet trying to decide what to pack can be a headache.  It’s your vacation and you want to look amazing … but you also don’t want to lug around three suitcases.   Have you tried packing a capsule wardrobe for a trip?  I took some of my favorite Chico’s mix and match pieces and created a travel capsule wardrobe to keep you looking chic every single day of your trip!

Ruti – Grown-Up Cool

April 26, 2019

I’m excited to introduce my readers to a designer I’m just loving. Have you heard of Ruti? I got the very special treat of visiting the Ruti designer store in Palo Alto and … wow, I really vibe with this designer! Everything is made for the grown-up cool girl, and that’s just who I am! (Or who I think I am, anyway!)

Statement Coat & Bag

April 18, 2019

Sometimes just the right statement piece makes the outfit … and in this case, I think two statement pieces did the trick! Starting with some black basics, I added this Lafayette 148 NY Topper and Hester Van Eeghen clutch for a sharp city chic look.

Crochet in the Winter

January 20, 2019

This is the time of the year when all the spring trends start hitting the stores and the magazines, and yet for most of us, it’s still chilly and will be for awhile.  Crochet is going to be big for spring 2019 and here’s my take on wearing the trend on a cool day.

Cozy Coffee Look

January 9, 2019

One of my favorite things to do is to go out for coffee, especially when there are pastries involved.  AND especially when I have time to relax a bit, either chat with a buddy in person or interact on social media with my friends from all over the world!

I made sure to take a little coffee break to myself over my 2 weeks off from teaching.  Here’s what I wore, and even though it’s a great out-to-coffee look, it’s also a perfect casual work look and I’m sure I’ll be wearing this head to toe for teaching one of these cold days (edited to add: wearing it today!).
