It's a scorcher out there today! I have "Happy Hour" plans with some life-long friends tonight and it's hard to plan an outfit in this humidity. Shorts are a must, but I always get cold in the air conditioning. I pulled out my "look book" for some inspiration. I adore this look. Oversized denim shorts [...]

Madewell Summer Picks
I love Madewell, mainly because not only do they carry their own brand, but others as well. Their clothing and accessories are casual or edgy, depending on how you style the look. They have a vast offering of merchandise, the quality is great, and the price points vary. It's a great place to find anything [...]
Denim Jacket 2012
Just when I think denim jackets are over, someone styles it in such a fabulous way that I need to pull mine out again. Jenna Lyons, the powerhouse behind J. Crew ( and one of my idols) sported a denim jacket and skirt to the Met Gala recently and I'm in love. She is so [...]
Cut-Off Denim (Never Goes Out Of Style)
I've worn cut-off denim since I was a little girl in the 70's. I usually prefer vintage Levis, but there are many, many other brands that offer the retro look with modern day appeal. So, what's the allure of the cut-off? In my opinion, they are super versatile and super sexy. There's something about a [...]
Fall Into The Gap
The Gap has previewed their Fall 2012 collection and it's super. They are finally returning to what they do best-cool, classic,style. The line features must-have basics like tailored wool blazers in rich autumnal hues, embellished sweaters, and classic khakis and denim (but with a cool, modern twist). They are plenty of statement pieces along with [...]
Style Inspiration-Gwyneth Paltrow
I remember the first time I saw a picture of Gwyneth Paltrow. I was on vacation in the desert of Arizona getting my tan on. And when I say the desert, I mean the DESERT. My dad and step-mom did Renaissance Festivals and this one happened to be in the sandy outskirts of whatever city [...]
Swim Into Summer At J. Crew
J. Crew has always been one my go-to shops for swimwear. For decades, they have offered versatile pieces in fabulous colors, prints, and fabrics. They may be on the more expensive side, but for someone who spends a lot of time in bikinis, I've learned you get what you pay for. They last for years, [...]
Style Inspiration-Carine Roitfeld
This week I have chosen Carine Roitfeld for my fashion inspiration. Carine was the editor-in-chief of Vogue Paris from 2001-2011 and is one of the most amazing stylists out there. Since leaving Vogue, she has done many freelance gigs, including Chanel's fall 2011 and spring 2012 ad campaigns. This fall she has two new projects [...]
Summer Dreaming
The grass is green, the trees have leaves, and flowers are blooming. I am dreaming of summer and it is just around the corner. I cannot wait for beach time, going to the Farmer's Market, and spending time on the water. I want sand between my toes and the sun on my face. Here are [...]
Lovely Finds At Anthropologie
I received the new Anthropologie catalog the other day and all I can say is "Wow". They have come so far over the last decade. The styles, brands, trends, and overall presentation is fantastic. Yes, the price range is much higher, but the quality and uniqueness makes it all worth it. It was hard for [...]
