For The Love Of Leopard
December 15, 2017
Today’s topic: leopard print. The trend of the season? If you ask me, absolutely. But if I’m being honest, leopard has always been a staple for me. It’s my neutral....
Wearing My Muggle Clothes Under My Quidditch Robes
December 3, 2017
I’m channeling one of my favorite fictional characters of all time in this velvet number. That’s right! I drew my inspiration for this look from The Boy Who Lived - Mr. Harry Potter himself! It is no secret that I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan - I have read and re-read every book and own all of the movies. It is the story of my childhood that I have grown up with and continue to cherish as an adult. I know I am not alone in this. But using the characters from J. K. Rowling’s world or witchcraft and wizardry as sartorial inspiration is definitely something new to me.
Black Friday Gift Guide
November 24, 2017
Sometimes (ahem... every year) Black Friday sales can be super overwhelming. So this year I have combed through the chaos of sale notifications being forced at us. And I have narrowed it down to the best of the best (and even picked my favorite pieces!). Stress free shopping from the comfort of your couch! And don't forget about the leftovers - I'm having apple crumble and a grapefruit for breakfast! I hope that everyone had a safe, beautiful holiday spent with the ones you love.
Consider Velvet Slippers & Dreamy Dresses This Holiday Season
November 22, 2017
I will be sharing more holiday recipes, shopping guides and most importantly heartfelt words over the next few weeks. But today, I bring you this dress. It is the unicorn of dresses, the holy grail if you will. I dare you to put on this dress and not twirl. HAH! I think it might actually be impossible not to feel like the belle of the ball in this dress.
Fashion Wovens For Life
November 18, 2017
Happy Saturday guys!! I have been having a love affair with fashion wovens for awhile now. Normally my favorites involve dramatic sleeve details or interesting necklines. While this shirt has neither of those things - it has something that most of my favorite fashion wovens do not - a kick a** back detail. Oh, and it’s *cropped*. I have worn this top dressed up - paired with a leather midi skirt or - wait for it - a pink feather skirt. And I have also worn it dressed down with jeans and a bomber jacket or my beloved camo jacket. I think that is one of my favorite things about woven tops with an over the top flair - their versatility!!

K, So I think fall just decided to do a quick fly by and it’s officially winter. How did that happen!? It’s exciting because it means that we can (finally!)...
The Perfect Flirty Dress
November 6, 2017
I love every detail of this flirty dress from the high neckline to the ruffled hemline. So naturally I wanted to wear it immediately. It is the perfect special occasion piece. But since I didn’t have anything JUST yet, I dressed it down for work or a date night. This leather jacket that I paired it with is perfect for this time of year - it has a quilted lining so it provides a little extra protection from the late fall chill!
Now Let Me Tell You About One Of My Favorite Dresses Ever
October 29, 2017
Let’s talk about *THIS DRESS*. It’s funny, As I began working on this post I noticed that I was putting more pressure on myself than normal. At first, I couldn’t put my finger on why exactly. But the more I think about it the more sure I am that it is because I loved wearing this dress so much that I want the post to do it justice. I want to the images to be perfect and my words to convey just how magical this dress is. So I have decided to go with pure honesty.

Living For Velvet
October 1, 2017
Happy Sunday and happy October! And just like that it’s finally feeling fall.Yesterday, was one of the first days that felt like fall here on the East Coast. Last week it was 80° and sunny and now all of the sudden, you can’t leave home without a jacket. Don’t get me wrong, it is about time. But the seasons are funny that way, in that they sneak up on you even when you know they’re coming.
