Style you Sunday: denim shirt II
I loved this first denim shirt Style you Sunday, based on a Hilary Duff look. My friend Jen had asked for some tips on styling a denim shirt, so I thought I'd do another more casual, day look. I am not a fan on jean on jean, no matter what the shad...
Style you Sunday: Thanksgiving
It's nearly here- the day of giving thanks, cooking, watching football, spending time with family, and oh ya, eating a lot! Our family Thanksgivings are fairly casual, but I like to wear a little something special, with room of course, for a growing...
Style you Sunday: fall floral
One of my friends is in the market for a fall floral dress- this one from Ruche.com perfectly fits the bill. With the brown color base, this dress proves that floral is all seasons. I styled the dress with a warm sweater coat with a fur hood, tight...

Style me: leather shorts
Haven't done this series in a while, and I have been eyeing a pair of leather shorts (well faux leather due to my small budget), so I thought this was a great time to bring it back! I've seen this look on Whitney Port and Gwyneth Paltrow, and I foun...
SMG\'s studded scarf
Sarah Michelle Gellar (SMG, as I will further refer to her) looks fabulous in this effortless day look. I love the scarf especially. In recreating this look for less, I couldn't find a suitably priced studded scarf that was close enough to this one. ...

Floral tunic 3 ways
I saw this post on the Forever 21 Report- which is a site that you should def follow if you are a F21 fan (and who isn't?). They do reviews of F21 items (even being so honest to tell you not to buy something), styling, and look for less options. Lov...
