Like peanut butter and jelly, some things just work for every woman thus restoring her confidence on even the most challenging days. My peanut butter and jelly happens to be SPANX + Clinique cosmetics. Two brands that help me get out the door feeling my best.

Wedding season is upon us and dressing up on the weekends has become the new norm. I don't mind it much as it breaks up my denim and tee uniform. I see this as a gift to my husband who sees me more disheveled than not.

Every once in a while you have a weekend that hits on all four cylinders. Such was the case for this weekend. Between gorgeous weather, weddings and spontaneous family visits...I couldn't have asked for more relaxation.

Eyelet will forever be associated with Summer in my mind. Didn't every little girl have an eyelet dress?
Today's post brings you a modified, more contemporary version that can be worn with jeans or a skirt for dressier occasion. I suppose this is my favorite uniform of all: a boxy top with interesting details, distressed denim and a good pair of heels.
No one could ever accuse me of not knowing what I like.

You know summer is around the corner when you start to see an influx of silver jewelry hit the market. I suppose it goes hand in hand with festival season.
Me, I fluctuate back and forth. I love gold for dressier occasions but silver looks amazing with denim and bronze legs. Don't you agree?
