When I think of Fall - there’s always that one item that keeps me up at night. That one piece I have to have. Over the years it’s spanned from coats to denim to OTK boots. All closet staples. This year was no different but it was a bit of a wild card. What I mean is…It’s more of a loud statement piece, which, I am totally okay with. Any ideas?
Read MoreI was so incredibly surprised at the popularity of last week's #NSale post that I decided to bring back a final edit of what's left that you should most definitely scoop up.

I very much like Nordstrom but it isn't a mainstay for me. Once in awhile I find a piece for me but I also have A.D.D. when it comes to shopping. I'm all over the place.

It's interesting...with all the crazy things happening in this world...there is still a disconnect in supporting one another. Specifically amongst women. This topic is such a head scratcher for me because we all have something unique to bring to the table. Why not celebrate that vs. worry SO much about what our peers are doing?
Read MoreYou just know when you have a good thing...in off the shoulder dresses + tops. Clearly this is my anthem this summer. So okay...just one more. Everyone needs a version in black, right? It's a staple for Pete's sake!

If there's one fashion staple that helps me appear pulled together on even the most frenzied kiddo days - it's a hat. You can read more about that here. Be it a beanie, a wide-brim fedora (my favorite), a cloche hat, a baseball cap...I love 'em all.
