You know how you often see photos of girls jumping off planes in their tight jeans and high heels. Even better, you see photos of celebrities wearing tracksuits and strappy heels. I am not down with that trend. I hate the idea of traveling and being uncomfortable. I always want to be super comfortable, even on a few hour flight. I stock up on face moisturizer, pass on the make up and pop on the yoga pants. There is time to dress up later! … [Read more...]

Collar Details
How amazing is this collar detail on this blouse. I tried out the Daily Look boxes for a while and loved this shirt they sent me. Unfortunately, you can't purchase the shirt (one of the reasons I stopped) or find a good link to it. I think having a collar detail is so amazing and a great way to dress up a typical work blouse. I wore this to a house warming party for my friends who have the coolest new building. I may have even posted a few photos of the amazing details in their place :). There are so many ways to do a great collar detail. Lace Up Collar: The tie up the neck is such a fun trend right now and it makes for a great day to night shirt.

Boots with the Fur
I could not help myself with the title. These are really boots with the sheep shearing but that does not sound as cool. Side note on the song. It takes me back to my freshman year of college where my floor mates, turned roommates, turned best friends, turned bridesmaids and I made up a dance to the song. It has some really good memories. Let's hope these amazing boots help us make some more. I've toyed with purchasing Sorel boots for a few winters now. I clearly caved and now own two pairs! They are warm, water proof and perfect for my mile long walks to and from work in the Chicago winters. I truly feel like I will keep them around for years to come. I love an investment piece! Size the Look: Size 7.5 (They are a little tight, but I prefer that than loose) Shop the Look: Sorel Joan of Arctic Holiday Boot … [Read more...]
