If you're going to sport the basics...details are everything. Like this navy top I found at the most adorable shop: YM Boutique. From the front it appears to be a basic, navy blouse which has a ton of versatility in and of itself. It's the lace detail in the back that really packs the punch. Paired with my favorite white denim - it's one of my favorite looks for the work week!
Read MoreI can officially tell you that these photos are outdated. What? Yes, I finally got my roots touched up. I think that's the longest I've ever gone....and it shows! Good lord momma needed a salon day. I feel like a new woman!
Read MoreI don't know if it's the impending snow flurries due today or the fact that my holiday season started in November and I'm already slightly annoyed at dressing up every day but I gotta tell you...throwing on some jeans and a big, chunky sweater just feels good. I actually don't mind the cold temps if I'm dressed right. Spoken like a true Midwesterner.
Read MoreI realized something about myself over the long weekend. My aesthetic has changed once again. I'll always be an early adopter of trends but I now know, in my late 30's, what works on my body. I can pick out the versatile pieces that will allow me to mix and match 2-3 different outfits vs. being limited to one look. While I've had a lot of fun with fashion, I decided it was time to trim my closet of the unnecessary and execute a major Poshmark Holiday Clean-Out. The perk? Mint condition items that have barely been worn at bargain pricing for you guys!
Read MoreYou didn't think I'd leave you hanging did you? While it's true that I took a break to enjoy my family and indulge in delicious food...there's no way I'd miss out on the tremendous savings that occur this time of year! I've shopped the girls, my husband, teachers, in-laws...you name it. I'm feel quite accomplished as a matter of fact.
Read MoreToday's shopping post is a favorite of mine - holiday dresses! If there's one article of clothing that I favor over any other...it's always the dress. I've rounded up six fantastically holiday choices for you and they're all under $150. I feel like this price point is my internal benchmark for quality and style. It's pretty rare to find one under $100 and not have it fall apart unless you're a super sleuth and scored an amazing deal!
Read MoreLast week I shared with you my interpretation of dressing up your favorite turtleneck. Today, I styled it casual...for work, a business lunch or even a holiday party. Long gone are the days of wearing next to nothing in freezing temps. As we all get older...I think we've figured out that you can still have function and not scrimp on the fashion.
Read MoreLadies, how many times have you been in a rush and run to the mall only to make an impulsive buy and hate it later? Maybe the fit isn't on the mark? Or worse, you find a flaw and you can't return it? Am I the only one raising my hand?
Read MoreThe holidays are a dangerous time for me. I always joke with a friend of mine, Hi Tiff!, that we subscribe to the "one for me, one for you" shopping philosophy. It's worked out nicely over the years! No wrapping required. (you're welcome Mother Earth)
