The blue color goes with everything from neutrals to brights. blouse- banana republic (this nearly identical one from BR is beautiful! USE CODE "BR40DAYS" FOR 40% OFF OF YOUR ...

Three [Great] Purchases
Lately I've been really trying to pare down my closet. What I notice is that I tend to wear the same pieces over and over and some are left collecting dust…sometimes for a year or more (cue my embarrassment here). I've been giving away pieces I never wear to friends or donating them to charity. The items I give away actually prompt me to evaluate ...
The [Top] Top
When we were in Toronto, I didn't buy many things for myself. I always enjoy shopping at Yorkdale but I didn't find too much I wanted the day we went. However, I did pick up this gorgeous top from Zara which is quickly becoming my most favorite top of the summer. First of all, the pattern is lovely and secondly the detail on the sleeves is really ...
Kate Spade Mint Green Gabe Flats
This dress is a repeat---but I wanted to share a quick photo of my new Kate Spade flats! They came in weeks ago but I hadn't worn them until this week. They're a perfect mint green and add a fresh pop of color to any outfit. My right heels does have a blister from the first time I wore them, but this happens to me with plenty of flats. Other than ...
The Pom Pom Scarf
When I posted this selfie of Harper and me on Instagram today, a lot of you asked about my pretty scarf so I thought I'd share my outfit. The scarf was actually a birthday gift from Megan and it couldn't be more me! I absolutely love the colors and the navy blue pom pom trim is the perfect touch that makes it feel special and different. Today I ...
A Floral Blouse
When this J.Crew blouse first appeared online and in stores, I loved it so much that I bought it even though I was about 8 months pregnant. I knew I would regret not buying it and I was right! I really love the unique print and fun, bright colors on this top. I gravitate a lot towards emerald/bright greens so I knew my closet had to have ...
Bold Blue Stripes
I'm really glad I ended up keeping this Banana Republic half-sleeve striped dress. It's very comfortable and I love the bold stripes against the crisp white. I wore it with flats because I think the length is not a good one for heels and I did notice today that there is at least an inch to an inch-and-a-half of fabric in the hem and I may take it ...
Three Dresses
I've worn this dress several times since I bought it because it's so easy to wear and very comfortable. I have to say that most of Madewell's dresses lately have been quite short, but this one is just right. I appreciate it when brands carry tall sizes in dresses especially (Gap, Banana Republic and J.Crew do online!) Though this one is not a tall ...
The (Ripped) LBD
This morning after a few days of sporting my "uniform" (slim pants, a dress shirt and blazer) I was in the mood to dress up a little bit. I looked through my closet and pulled out this sheath dress from Zara that I've loved for years. I even wore this one while pregnant because it's so roomy! What I didn't notice was that the bottom of the dress ...
A Day for Chambray
I absolutely love chambray shirts. It seems like I'm not alone as nearly every woman in my office has one! It's so easy to mix and match with light, dark and bright colors, you really can't go wrong. Though I ended up swapping out my heels for flats after checking my calendar and seeing that I would be in the office all day, I adore these Steven ...
