After a few unexpected snow storms and some frigid days, it’s finally starting to feel like spring. For some reason, once we get our first taste of warm weather we tend to get this overwhelming sensation to declutter our life. That old saying, “out with the old, in with the new” becomes our motto for […]
Seeing that Valentines Day is just around the corner, this past weekend I ventured out to the mall in search of an outfit that would knock my man’s socks off. After wandering in and out of stores for about 40 minutes, I had found a drop-dead gorgeous dress and the perfect accessories—shoes and clutch […]

Knee high socks are great because they fall into the category of being bold, sexy, and edgy. Fashionistas all around are channeling their inner Cher Horowitz […]
Shirt dresses are a clothing staple in order to transition from summer to fall seamlessly. I especially love this trend because they are appropriate to wear to work but are also great for a date night. While this dress can be paired with wedges during early fall, it is great paired with booties and tights […]
This spring, evoke your inner Bohemian babe by rocking some fringe in your outfits. Fringe has gone in and out of style over the decades, however, now it is back in a big way. The addition of fringe into your everyday wear is a great opportunity to add a bit of personality to your spring […]
