After reading a post on J's Everyday Fashion, I decided it was time to make a Facebook page for my blog to connect more with you all. You can "like" my Facebook page here (only if you want to, of course!) and...if you're feeling mighty, let me know if you have any advice about what you'd like to see on my Facebook page. Hope everyone had a ...

Weekend Shopping…
Have you ever had something on your wish list for years? For me, it was the Tory Burch "Reva" flats. For some reason, I could never bring myself to get them because of the cost (about $200). Oddly, it never bothered me to spend $200 on a few items during a shopping trip, but I could never push myself to get the flats even though I had ...
Pretty Paisley
If you watched last week's haul video on my YouTube channel, you'll remember the paisley tunic I scored at Zara for $29.99. I absolutely love this piece---it is SO comfortable and perfect for a laid-back Friday at work. This tunic could work as a dress on someone much shorter than I am! Here's how I styled it: and without the infinity ...

Mixing Business with Watercolor
I had an event at work today so I wanted to look professional and not too trendy. I chose my beloved J. Crew No. 2 pencil skirt and paired it with an item in my closet that has been ignored for the past year: my black blazer. I don't know why I don't wear it more often because it really is a lovely piece. After wearing it today, I'm ...
How I Edit My Blog Photos: Windows Live Gallery Rave!
It used to take me forever to edit my blog photos. Not because I was editing out blemishes or slimming my hips (sadly, my skills are not even remotely advanced enough for that)...but because I was spending time loading photos into Photoshop and then cropping and color correcting them all manually. Funny side note:When I first started my ...
Casual Cool
I get a lot of requests to share my more casual outfits---outfits I wear to shop, run errands or on casual Friday. I wore this outfit on Friday. Very simple and oh-so-comfortable. I was thrilled to wear my cognac boots for the second time this winter. It just hasn't been cold enough here to wear them more often. I do recommend investing in a ...
Curls, Without the Heat.
Last week, I showed you how to revive second, third (or fourth!) day curls using Bumble & Bumble's Texture lotion. This week, I'm taking it to a whole new level and sharing with you the growingly popular "heat free" way to curl your hair. I haven't had my hair curled with rags since I was a kid, but one of my internet friends, Kathy, ...

Going Faux (Fur)
Today was a more casual day where I knew I wouldn't be leaving the office so I tried to be a little more relaxed by wearing a simple cotton henley and a vest with faux fur...and I threw in a polka-dot skirt into the mix...you know, just for fun! I wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who left comments and tips about my new lens---I'm going to ...
