I grew up in the era of TLC and Aaliyah, so crop tops and baggy jeans were pretty much my (and my generation’s) standard uniform. Plus, in high school I worked at Merry-Go-Round and Dr. Denim, two stores that catered to the TLC/Aaliyah crowd, so most of my wardrobe was sourced from there, and other […] Read More »
Back to School, Back to Work
Hey, lovelies! How was your long weekend? I didn’t do much beyond relaxing and catching up on work. I remember when I couldn’t wait for a long weekend – it was the perfect excuse to hang out with my friends, go to clubs, dance and party all weekend. My girls and I used to take […] Read More »
Transitional Piece: the Strapless Flounced Top
Summer ’16 was the season of bare shoulders. It’s a trend that reappears every few years so if you have a few pieces you love, keep them! They’ll definitely be back in style again. I grabbed a couple of off-shoulder or ‘cold-shoulder’ items this year, and one of my faves is this strapless flounced top […] Read More »
Last Days of Summer
Happy Monday! I can’t believe it’s mid-August already – pretty much the ‘last days of summer’! The season is quickly coming to a end, much to my chagrin. I’m so sad because summertime is my favorite time of the year, with its hot days, beach trips, cold treats and chic summer outfits. This leaf/palm print […] Read More »
Gingham and Glow
Gingham has long been one of my favorite prints, especially for the summertime. So I was happy to see it making a comeback this season. I, along with many other fashionistas, have been obsessed with the many colorful gingham options for sale this summer, like these popular J.Crew gingham sandals that sold out in my […] Read More »
A Fan of Floaty Floral Dresses
I just can’t get enough of floaty, floral dresses for spring and summer! I love the versatility of this particular faux wrap front maxi dress. It has been my go-to piece for various occasions: my sister’s graduation, church, dinner, and just an average day out and about. I snagged this one for a steal at […] Read More »
After the Rain Comes the Sun + A Bright, Sunshiny Birthday Dress
“Yellow is the color of sun rays” That line is from one of my favorite songs, “Keep on Moving,” by Soul II Soul. I recently heard it on the radio and remembered why I always loved it when it first came out. It’s such a beautiful, inspirational song! Even though it appears to be about […] Read More »
Tutorial: DIY Pom Pom Sandals
Shoes are one of my weaknesses, and I’ll happily ‘invest’ in a great pair. But I tend to stay away from the expensive, trendy pairs that might be out of style in a season or two. This season, the pom pom trend is dominating the accessories market, especially shoes. The standout pair that I’ve seen […] Read More »
Bodycon Dresses are the New Bandage Dresses
Happy Friday! So, bandage dresses really had their moment over the last decade, but that trend finally came to an end. I was a fan of the trend, so luckily, I found a good replacement: bodycon dresses! Bodycons are the dress equivalent to skinny jeans: they’re both slim-fitting and figure-flattering. It’s like wearing Spanx in […] Read More »
Three Trends, One Top
Don’t you love it when your favorite trends converge so you can wear them all at once?! This season, ruffle blouses, off-shoulder and asymmetric tops are having their moment. I’m a huge fan of all three trends, so when I spotted this blouse that combines all three, I had to have it. This Asymmetric Striped […] Read More »
The Perfect Pair of Trouser Pants
If you’re a woman, you probably know the waist gap struggle! I have always had a little ‘junk in my trunk’, even when I was super duper skinny, so I could never find pants that fit me well. My waist was small, my legs were skinny and my butt was big. So no matter whether […] Read More »
Pink Overload
I’ve really been in a pink mood lately. Maybe it’s because the cherry blossoms exploded with the color everywhere, or just because the days are getting brighter and sunnier! Also, aside from black, pink is my favorite color so I’ll always find any excuse to wear it. This looks is a bit of pink overload. […] Read More »
What to Wear to Work This Week: Striped Trench + Geo Print Pants
It’s been a few years since I’ve worked in an actual corporate office environment, but when I did, dresses and skirts were always my go-to. I steered away from pants as much as possible, because it was always so difficult to find great looking work pants that fit me well. Curvy girls know the struggle […] Read More »
Canadian Tuxedos and Olivia Pope Coats
Happy Spring, lovelies! Even though it’s officially the season of warmer weather, we’re still feeling the leftovers of Winter. The sun is shining brightly, but it’s chilly out, y’all! So I’m staying bundled up in my ‘Olivia Pope coat’. It’s not too heavy, but not too light – but just the right weight and size […] Read More »
What to Wear for Easter
Getting dressed up for Easter is as synonymous with the holiday as making candy filled baskets for the kids. And I’m always looking for any excuse to get dressed up – how about you? Growing up in Philly, a new outfit for Easter was the norm every year. Whether you were heading to church, going […] Read More »
Three Ways to Wear: A Striped Blouse
My taste in fashion has changed over the years (as it should). In my twenties, I was more interested in fast fashion – I’d buy a new top or outfit just to wear to the club on a Friday night. I’d get a little more wear out of these party clothes but they weren’t sustainable. […] Read More »
Outfit of the Day: Bon Chic Bon Genre
Bon chic, bon genre (BCBG): (English: Good style, good sort) is an expression used in France to refer to a subculture of stylish members of the Paris upper class. Paris is one of my favorite places I’ve ever visited and a place I always look forward to traveling to again. I’ve been there twice already […] Read More »
Outfit of the Day: Back to Black and White
Nothing says classic more than black and white. It’s my favorite default color combo and I have and wear so much of it so often that I have to actively choose to wear colors. Especially during the winter. But wearing black and white is so easy and it’s a color combo that always works, on […] Read More »
