What I Wore: Casual Edge

Over the weekend, I tweeted that I wanted the world to know how much I loved my pair of James Jeans, and several days later, I have refused to take them off. I think they are just the best thing since sliced bread. I know what you may think. Any pair of jeans labeled as super skinny are surely not going to flatter anyone unless those two words also describe their body type. Guess what? My pair of Twiggy Super Skinnies do not only flatter my curvy frame by making me look longer and leaner, but also are beyond comfortable. I’m pretty sure we may be packing our bags and running away with each other in the very near future. Sorry, husband.

What I Wore: Holiday Card Shoot


I always look forward to “making” our holiday cards each year. I mean, what’s not to love? I get to have fun taking adorable pictures with my hubs – can’t hate on that! Although I won’t unveil the actual holiday card until Christmas day here on the blog, I figured it was a perfect opportunity for an outfit post – and another excuse to show off my adorable new haircut!

What I Wore: LA Living

I’m back from vacation, and I come bearing gifts! Namely, an outfit post! It feels like centuries since I did one, but I’m glad I was able to squeeze a few minutes out of our hectic visit to LA in order to shoot one. We were there for a friend’s wedding and had entirely too much fun. The weather was spectacular as well, allowing me to pull out all those new winter items I never get to rock back home. Leather jackets, boots, scarves and this immensely comfy sweater tunic. And yes, I’m bringing back jeggings (did they go away?) because they are possibly the best article of clothing when you are jet lagged, tired and hung over – not that I was any of those things when these photos were taken. I promise. 😉

What I Wore: Jewel Tones & Glitter Collars

Oh color. Oh silliness. Why do I love you so? Not really quite sure, but any excuse to bring both those out is one I will surely take and run with. This past weekend was my hubby’s birthday and we put together the infamous Pinterest balloon wall. It came out great, but unfortunately, we were all too busy socializing, drinking wine and enjoying ourselves to remember to snap pictures of people in front of it. What a fail! Oh well, at least I was able to take advantage of it for my outfit post! And I think it may be one of my favorites to date.

Neon Blouse: 3 Ways!

You all expressed that you enjoyed a good remix post, so here is another shot at one for you all! As you all know, I absolutely love my hot pink blouse that I picked up at H&M while on vacation in Los Angeles this past summer, and I do not mask the fact that I wear it often. And just because you wear something often does not mean that you will be sporting the same look over and over again. While looking through past outfit posts, I noticed that each time I wore the blouse, I went for a completely different vibe. Even if you are sporting a repeat offender, chances are no one will notice if you style it differently. And that’s what remixing is all about!

So which look is your favorite?
The modern pin up, the casual tourist or the trendy chick?
