I didn't buy a lot of clothes in 2013. I was pregnant for some of it, on maternity leave for some of it and then uninspired for much of the year. Sure, I bought a few pieces here and there, but nothing like before. While I'm so excited about all of the spring and summer clothes in stores right now, I can't help but love the fact that I'm also ...

A Timeless Dress
I haven't purchased anything at Club Monaco in a few years now (their prices seem to have skyrocketed from what they used to be), but one piece I will always return to is this simple button-front dress (which I also own in white, my favorite of the two). It's so easy to wear, has a nice full skirt and looks great belted too. I purchased this dress ...
Green Luncheon Dress
Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a luncheon hosted by the Blue Bird Circle, a wonderful organization that supports the peidatric neurology clinic at Texas Children's. The luncheon featured Barbara Pierce Bush as a guest speaker. She shared with us the impact she and her fellows are making via her organization, Global Health ...
Skirts with Bows
The lovely weather continues in Houston and that means I've been motivated to rediscover some pieces I haven't worn in quite some time. This Banana Republic bow skirt is one of them. I just love the bow and slit detail and the length is perfect for the office. I used to hate wearing flats with dresses and skirts but I've been digging the ...
Pink + Stripes
I was delighted to learn that it would consistently be in the 80's this week so that means bare legs! I was so excited to slip into one of my beloved J.Crew No. 2 Pencil skirts, which I pretty much used to wear daily before I was pregnant. They're just so comfortable and easy to wear. Plus, they go with everything from dress shirts, to blouses, to ...
Skirting It
It's getting to that temperature in Houston where when you get into your car after work, you have to blast the AC at maximum levels because your car has been baking in the sun all day. But I said I was looking forward to warmer weather, so no complaints here! Today I wore this beautiful full skirt from Madewell. It's comfortable and simple, yet ...

A Royal Dress
dress- banana republic (old, but this one is nearly identical, also from BR!) | jacket- zara | shoes- nine west | necklace- stella & dot ℅ My mom bought this royal blue dress for me when she was visiting from Canada when Harper was just a few weeks old. I love it. It's a fun, bold color and has a fuller skirt which is ...
The Right Stripe
I've been looking for a white striped blazer for quite some time and never found the perfect one…until now. I missed out when Anthropologie had a similar style a couple of years ago (see it on Chloe, here) and since then had purchased a black blazer with white stripes from Express (that I later sold on Poshmark) and another cotton striped blazer ...
A Tweed Jacket
Thank you to everyone who left a sweet comment on my last outfit post! I really appreciate your feedback. I also want to say thank you to those who have stuck around as my blog transitioned from mostly personal style and beauty to what it is now--- baby, baby and more baby…and a few DIY, home and beauty posts here and there. You can ...
