Modus Operandi around this time of year: Go into major overdrive and pull out all the stops on summer dressing. I'm a scrambling fool trying to load on as many summery favorites as I can into any single outfit whenever I dress, and the result isn't always the prettiest. But hey, when the sun's as much of a rare commodity as it is up here in the North East, a girl's gotta do what she's gotta do!
Read MoreHow is it that it's the end of August and almost Fall when I'm writing a post on the sundress, an absolute staple in any woman's summer wardrobe? Someone needs to slow the time down, I tell you. It's flying by like nobody's business, and I'm not even half done with summer fashion yet! In the spirit of making the most of what is given (including money, as I shall make clear soon enough!), I'm wearing my favorite summer sundress in today's post before it's too late!
Read MoreHappy Tuesday, everyone! Today, I'm on the trip of a lifetime. The kind that involves LED lights, blurred (un)realities and neon zebra habitats. Rest your fears, its only the heady mix of imagination and fashion that I'm tripping on, also known as Imagishion to those prone to making words up like me. Because there's gotta be a word to describe the talents of the creator of the psychedelic funky little number that's the star of the show today.
Read MoreOne windy, blustery mess of a day a couple of weeks ago, I wore this perfect summer outfit out for lunch with friends. Given my permanent state of amnesia when it comes to checking weather forecasts, this should not have surprised and hence, annoyed me. But it did. To the extent that I was yelling at the Gods in the sky like a mad woman on a crowded street.The Gods answered with a long and heavy downpour (of course! Not the first FML moment of the day, thankfully.), leaving us with just about five minutes to shoot these pictures.
Read MoreRemember this post when I pledged to introduce you to the many varied kinds of summery fancy pants? After silk pants and this post on printed pants, I'm bringing you the less fancy, more AWESOME jogger pants. You're thinking of the slouchy sweats you used to wear to the gym that now make for heavenly lounging partners at home? The same, but very much upgraded.
Read MoreHello from the Tropics, good folks! Me and the Toucan are adventuring in the jungles today, and you're welcome to join our little party! Fashion is almost synonymous with playing pretend, don't you think? Nothing beats the feeling of recreating whatever is taking my fancy on a certain day in an outfit. More often than not, I'm dreaming of traveling to all of the exotic lands our wonderful world is made of. Until the next time that I find myself in a tropical paradise, no better way to keep the dream alive than wearing it! Talk about wearing one's heart on the sleeve! ;)
