Glittery look for less...then another for more.

Posted on: Friday, November 18, 2011


The Miu Miu glitter boot is the current "it" shoe. The price is a bit steep so I found two options that will give you the look without breaking the bank. I'm not sure I could pull these off... would you wear them?
Below, we're back to another "investment piece".
I would rock the Co-Op glitter ankle boot in a heartbeat. They are the perfect balance of casual+tough+girlie. I found a DIY version here, but I'm lusting after the real deal on this one.
Happy Friday!

The search for an iPhone case continues...

Posted on: Wednesday, November 16, 2011

I still don't have a case for my iPhone. I can't decide on one that I love. I'm really liking what iomi has to offer though. Super cute!
Also loving their new loafers, here.

There's something about continuing to wear white as winter approaches. It's just so crisp and clean.

I'm seriously ready for a snow day. A little winter weather always lifts my spirits. Especially when I get to stay home from work and do a little blogging.

How amazing are these slippers from Anthropologie?!
I'm loving the orange, but would be much happier if Santa slipped the polka dot pair under my tree.

Color Bug by Kevin Murphy

Have you been bitten by the bug? Colorful locks have been all over the runway but the commitment to permanent color can be a little more than your average girl is ready, or willing to take on. Stylist, Kevin Murphy has created the perfect product for temporarily dressing your locks. Color Bug wipes on high def color and washes out immediately! And, there's no messy liquid, it's actually made of pressed powders. You need to first apply hair product (like hair spray or a texturizer. The thicker the product the brighter the color), then rub Color Bug in the desired area. Take a look at Kevin's podcast to learn a few styling tricks.
I checked Amazon and it is entirely sold out of the product. If you're interested, I would inquire at your local salon. Pricing is about $20.00 and it is available in pink, purple, and orange (if you can get your hands on it).
Would you use this product? I totally would. And, am I alone on this one or do colored tresses make you want to rock leather pants also? No...no one? ...Bueller??

How many coats is too many?

Posted on: Friday, November 4, 2011






My problem with coats is that I don't grow out of them! So how can I justify buying new ones?
Well... I don't have any cozy fall coats like these? Perfect for the vineyard, apple picking, or any other outdoor activity you can dream up.
I'm totally smitten
Oh, and then there's this cape which makes me think the Pilgrims had it right all along...

Winter Warmth in Style

Posted on: Wednesday, November 2, 2011

Cold weather is on it's way and there's nothing better than a heavy duty blanket to help you stay warm. Here are my picks for serious warmth and traditional style. Above, (A), the Hudson Bay Company millennium point blanket has the perfect neutral color scheme. It would work perfectly with my living room rug. I love how it was used as a headboard above (although I don't think I could stand it in the summertime).
Below, B and C are Pendelton National Park blankets made from 100% pure virgin wool.

My current throw blanket is cashmere, but I love the idea of wool's durability. I'm also completely smitten with the stripes. Do you have any wool blankets for winter?
