Accessorized: For A Cozy Winter Weekend January 06 2014

Let's accessorize this cozy outfit for a casual winter weekend.  The knit hat will be just right for an outdoor events or errands and the sweet polka dot bag will carry along any other essential warm weather belongings. I love the cobalt detailing on the zipper of the boots.  Nude nails compliment the look with a simple, dainty initial necklace (available in various lengths - I love the longest length).

Interior Design Love: Round Mirrors April 01 2013

I've been collecting some inspiration for my studio on and I noticed a recurring theme: round mirrors. I particularly love the ones with the leather strap and buckles. But ultimately I'd love to find a vintage round mirror with no frame.  I've been looking around for something similar but haven't had any luck yet.

Detailing In The Back March 12 2013

In love with tops with open backs or pretty, lacy backs lately. *I wanted to incorporate a pun using 'baby's got back' but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

Accessorized: An Outdoor Summer Event February 21 2013

What better way to combat the Winter doldrums then to dream about pretty Summer clothing options?  This simple color block dress is perfect for an outdoor summer event.  The neutral gray and white provide a blank canvas to allow accessories to be the focal point of the outfit.  Here is how I accessorized this dress:  I kept the shoes and belt in the same neutral color palette as the dress to allow the red clutch to be the centerpiece of the outfit.  A simple, dainty necklace completes the look without overpowering the other accessories.  How would you accessorize this dress for Summer?   What accessories would you choose to warm it up for a Winter look?

Fall Footwear October 30 2012

Which style would you choose?  The ankle boots seem like the most versatile Fall & Winter option because they pair well with long skirts, short skirts and jeans.  I don't know though, I love those booties and have had my eye on them for a long time.
