101 fashion bloopers - behind the camera lens.

Shocking as you may find this...I am not a model by any means. I know. I know. You'd never know I am a suburban mom. Believe me, I fool many-a-people. But in all seriousness, if you can't have a laugh at yourself than who can you laugh at? 

I present you the first of, what I can only assume, many fashion blooper posts. These are the photos that get trashed immediately for reasons...well...it's pretty obvious. See below.

6 trouser silhouettes to buy this Fall.

It's September. You can deny it all you want but the truth of the matter is that summer is over and you need to start prepping your wardrobe for cooler temps and pumpkin lattes. I say this tongue and cheek because I was just at an event last night joking with another blogger how cliche it is when we all post our first pumpkin spice latte on Instagram.

Windowpanes.

This is my second midi skirt and I must say, it's my favorite. I've learned that not all midi skirts are created equal. With a 5'2 frame, often times it looks like skirts are eating me alive.

Travel Essentials: fashionable flats + giveaway #4.

Being a heels girl, I only whip out flats when absolutely necessary. That said, there are times when heels just won't fit the bill including running after my children and during a day of travel. As NYFW approaches, I'm mentally packing and editing everyday. And, if you know anything about Fashion Week, you know that every fashionable gal needs a pair of chic flats for those long walks as you sweat profusely trying to hail the same taxi that 30 other fashionistas are trying to wave at furiously. Yeah, that means those cab to curb heels need to find a comfy spot in your tote or else you better bring a first aid kit!

I'm ok with it + giveaway #3.

It felt like the onset of Fall today. And, I'm ok with it. Generally speaking, by March I want to chuck all my denim out the window and light a match because our winters are soo long. Dare I say that I'm actually getting excited for Fall? Sliding on black denim sort of evoked a little wave of "yeah...where's my leather jacket" in me. Could it be that I am over you, Summer? 'Fraid so. Where's my plaid? Anyone?
