I kind of took a break from blogging last week. I don't know why, but every once in awhile I get a little burned out and need to take a week off to refresh and re-motivate myself. Thanks for your patience and for all of the sweet ladies who sent notes wondering if I was okay. I assure you, all is well, I was just tired. I'm ...

How to Style: Weekend to Work Week
Taking an outfit from weekend to work can be as simple as switching up one piece.

Falling for Pink
I broke out the wool this week! I was so excited to wear my J.Crew No. 2 pencil skirt in the pink color because I had set it aside all summer due to the fabric. Oh how I've missed you!

Sunday Brunching
This Sunday, a group of us blogger gals got together for some brunch at Cuchara Restaurant. I can't say I loved the food and tiny menu, but the amazing company more than made up for it.

The Navy Pencil Dress
Every time I take photos outdoors, I'm reminded by how much better they look.

This navy blue dress is one of my favorite, classic pieces. The best part is that my ...

Lace For Lunch
I had a luncheon to attend today so I wanted to dress up a little more than usual. I wore my trusty White House, Black Market lace dress that I got at their outlet store for about $30 (total score for such a classic piece!) It has a pretty cool back too---sheer black with a keyhole. ...and with a jacket: Blazer- ...
A New Fall Neutral
This burgundy skirt from Target was a steal at $22---and I'm loving the way it mixes with various prints and color combos. It's almost like a neutral for fall. I decided to add a tiny polka-dot blouse and a striped blazer in the same colors. If you're scared to mix prints, try using prints in the same color family to ease into the ...
What I’ve Been Eating & Other Randoms
I had an incredibly busy work week this week so as the weekend starts tomorrow, I'm planning to take naps and just relax and run errands. Sometimes it's nice to just kick back and do next to nothing. Here are some of my favorite meals I ate this week: Berries with Ezekiel cinnamon raisin bread and Justin's chocolate hazelnut ...
