I felt like a confection in this outfit. I threw it all together but I think it worked. The sweater (also seen here) is absolutely divine. I hope you’re having a good week! xo

Thankful

November 22, 20112 Comments

Counting one’s blessings is always a healthy and humbling thing to do. This year I’m thankful for a handsome new husband, a healthy and expanded family, sweet friends, puppies, yummy food, free time and so much more. I always think of Thanksgiving as a passage into six weeks of holidays and it’s lovely to be on the front end.

A happy girl is a pretty girl, don’t you agree?

Inspired by the 40s

I am currently inspired by the feminine silhouettes of the 1940s, the soft coifs, the bold lips, the high waist…re-imagined into a more modern replication.

Birthday!

Tomorrow is my brand new hubby’s birthday. We took the day off to celebrate (as if we really needed an occasion). Isn’t it so much fun to make merry and be carefree and just bask in happiness? Yeah the answer is yes.

I hope you’re celebrating something, anything this weekend!

I don’t know if pointy toe pumps ever really went out but either way, they’re back. They are such a feminine shape and they do wonders for the legs.

One of the undeniable staples of a woman’s wardrobe is the white oxford. It’s a classic must-have and can be worn in an infinite amount of ways. I realized yesterday that I have 6…oops I don’t feel guilty.

A Gaggle of Girls

I believe women dress for other women 95% of the time. Don’t you? There are rare occasions where we need/want/seek a male’s approval, but they’re pretty few and far between. That’s mostly because most of the men in our lives, namely love interests, aren’t quite adept at fashion or what is ‘in’ (for women) – and let’s face it do we really want them to be?

This is a wee dedication to girls everywhere that are rocking it out on the streets looking fabulous.
