I can’t get enough of Zara. I love the baggy, but pegged pants in this collection. The “I don’t care” attitude in the styling. And the navy swing jacket in the first picture needs to be in my closet. Be sure to catch up on...

Fall has finally slapped me silly. Boy, it was windy yesterday. So windy I had a confused look on my face the whole day. Plus, I’m sick. Everyone is sick in my household, and I feel bad for our family members flying in for thanksgiving. I have...

First, I was disappointed in the workmanship of the Lanvin for H&M collection, and seriously don’t know what all the fuss is about. Like a good friend said, “lookout for at least 6 girls showing up to the holiday party in the same...

Glad it has gotten cold enough to bring out the leather, not that it makes a difference because I wear leather shorts/skirts when it’s warm out, but at least I can justify my leather wearing now. Had this jacket for over 6 years. It’s...

How’s this for memory lane. This dress I have on is so special to me. I bought it with my first paycheck when I worked at The Gap in college. I was 17 years old. I worked at The Gap part-time, so I could buy nice clothes from there with my...
