I love my skinny jeans but sometimes a girl just needs a break. And boyfriend jeans are the next best thing. The best ones are slouchy and look lived in, but I found a great pair at H&M, which is a sort of skinny/boyfriend hybrid, aka my two faves in one. Paired with a cropped […] Read More »
My style: Sunshine at the beach (H&M dress + Bottega Veneta sandals + Galliano Leather Heart Bag)
I’ve noticed a trend in my closet this summer: the color yellow. I seem to be drawn to the color in every form – clothing, shoes, and other accessories. 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 »
My Style: Baltimore Harbor (Zara blazer + BB Dakota top +DvF pants + Celine Luggage Tote)
Just a few weeks ago, the weather was just perfect – sunny and balmy outside. It certainly didn’t feel like Fall or Winter. I took these pics while visiting Baltimore Harbor on a gorgeous day, filled with strolling by the water and eating tons of crabs. Yum. A blazer is my usual go-to piece for […] Read More »
My Style: Peplum 2011 (Kersh top + Zara jeans & sandals + Jimmy Choo Mahala/Maddy bag)
On one of the perfect, sun-filled days we had at the end of the summer, I pulled out this Kersh printed peplum-style top. Admittedly, I was never really a fan of the style – peplum dresses always conjure up images of awful eighties style to me – particularly the clothes Jackée Harry wore while playing […] Read More »
My Style: Jill Scott at Jones Beach (Victoria’s Secret floral sweetheart dress + MRKT cork sandals + Beirn bag)
I received a surprise anniversary gift from my hubby – tickets to see Jill Scott in concert! She’s been my favorite female artist ever since she came out with her first album (and I’m not biased just because she’s a Philly girl like me) – she’s one super talented singer and any chance I can […] Read More »
My Style: Brights and Whites (Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent top + James Jeans)
I have a favorite, secret TJ Maxx store that has THE BEST designer stuff. I’m talking Pucci wallets, Katherine Kwei knot clutch bags, Prada pumps and Fendi bags. These are the just some of the things I’ve bought/seen there. And this Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent batwing-style tunic top. It was between this and an […] Read More »
My Style: White on White (E.vil Ribcage tank + James Jeans + Jimmy Choo bag)
I love the crisp look of white clothing but usually refrain from wearing it because I always get it stained. And today was no different. I spent the day brunching and shopping with my family and thought this was the perfect outfit for both. It wasn’t until later in the day that I realized my red […] Read More »
My Style: (Black tank + Blue Zara pants + Jeffrey Campbell zebra sandals)
Animal print never gets old with me. The past few seasons have been all about leopard print but I still held tight to my zebra print Jeffrey Campbell shoes. The truth is, they never go out of style. Punctuated by an electric blue snake print heel and trim, these shoes are super haute and super […] Read More »
My Style: How to Make a Statement (Necklace)
Lucky Magazine challenged a group of its Alpha Shoppers, including me, to create a piece of statement jewelry using materials found at Michaels. As a former jewelry and handbag designer, and all-around crafty person, I was up for the task. The real challenge was limiting myself to creating only one statement piece! With my $50 […] Read More »
My Style: Philly-bound (Kensie Denim jacket + Vince jeans + Jessica Kagan Cushman clutch)
The perfect day = perfect weather, the perfectly distressed denim jacket, perfect fit pants and the perfect bag. Wouldn’t you agree? We took a road trip to Philly for the day and the weather was sunny and gorgeous, but still cool enough to wear a light jacket. I love distressed denim, especially when you can […] Read More »
