My style: Pops of pink (J. Crew striped popover blouse + Hudson jeans + Celine Leather Luggage Tote in neon pink)
I try to avoid impulse shopping by going into a store already knowing what I want/need to buy, or waiting a few days to decide if I truly want/need it. And when I can’t stop obsessing over something in my head, it becomes a must-have. Such was the case with this striped J. Crew shirt and this neon/fluoro/hot pink Celine Leather Luggage Tote. I first saw the bag online on Savannah Brinson (Lebron’s...

And I love it all. This season I’m excited to have been selected as...
My style: Going for the gold (Yellow cardigan + Zara metallic jeans + Cleobella ‘Kaya’ Bucket bag + Charles David suede platform pumps)
There are those fashion essentials you need, and there are those you simply want. And there are those that fit into both categories. I never in my life thought I’d need or want metallic gold jeans, yet they appeared on Zara.com a few months ago and suddenly I both wanted and needed them badly.
Once they arrived, I wondered, “What does one wear with gold jeans?”
Well, here’s...

My Style: Test-driving the Knomo ‘Ravello’ laptop bag
As a writer/editor, I need my tech tools with me at all times – like my laptop for writing and editing, my iPhone for Tweeting and Facebooking, and my camera for street style and fashion snaps and cords to connect them all. So despite always carrying around large handbags, I need a separate one for tech stuff. Despite the many options, most tech bags just aren’t that cute. Sure they get...

Outfit yourself in this après-ski attire by Ashish for Topshop!
Let’s be honest – going skiing is less about hitting the slopes and more about hitting up the lodge. You know, sipping hot chocolate or other warm (spiked) drinks, and bringing the snow bunny look to life. We’re all about après-ski – the tradition of going out and socializing after skiing. Well, skip the slopes and head directly for the fireplace at the lounge in these ski/snowboarding...
