As my closet seems to grow smaller and smaller, I try to consolidate by buying items that I can wear all year long. This asymmetric striped skirt is one of those pieces that I’ve worn in every season, in both warm and cold weather. For Winter and Spring (when it was cold), I layered it […] Read More »
My style: Neon & leather (Leather moto jacket + Victoria’s Secret pleated maxi dress + Bottega Veneta sandals)
Since I’m an accessory junkie, I tend to dress around my bags and shoes. I picked up this silver bag from Zara recently, and loved it because it reminded me of Proenza Schouler’s PS11 mirrored-leather clutch that I’ve been virtually stalking. The clutch is a little out of my price range for clutches, so this […] Read More »
My style: Double denim; double stripes (UK Style by French Connection denim shirt + Hudson jeans + Bottega Veneta sandals)
Some celebrity or fashion/style trend expert decided it was a great idea to bring back the denim-on-denim trend, and I’m not complaining at all. It was a favorite of mine back in the 80’s, although with a MUCH tackier feel than today. I remember pairing a denim shirt with acid-washed jeans and embellished denim shoes! […] Read More »

Something about the color makes me feel like having fun, so I wore this yellow H&M dress to the beach one weekend recently. The Bottega Veneta […] Read More »

Of course I see tons of stuff I like/love/want. But I have to separate what I do from how and when I shop. Otherwise it […] Read More »
My style: Stripes & stripes (Maggy London Nautical Stripe Maxi Dress + Bottega Veneta sandals + Marc by Marc Jacobs Satchel)
Have you ever seen something on a commercial, in an ad or on someone and became obsessed with finding it? I have no shame asking someone on the street or the train where they got something, and searching for it until I track it down! Just call me a ‘stealthy shopper’. A few months ago […] Read More »
My style: Sway Chic (Neon yellow cutout blouse & Kabuki necklace + Kenneth Cole Palazzo pants + Bottega Veneta sandals)
I’m always on the lookout for what’s haute in fashion, whether it’s on the runway or in a local boutique, so I was excited when I recently discovered Sway Chic, a haute online boutique with a mix of modern-vintage and California chic styles. They’ve owned and operated several boutiques across California since 2003, but recently […] Read More »
