I loved this collection. Clean lines, soft hues, cinched waists. For some reason I’m not very into Victoria Beckham, but I must admit that I do love her designs.

NYFW: Can we just skip Winter and go straight to Spring?
BCBG Max Azria Spring 11 was so very up my alley…
An Homage to White After Labor Day
Supposedly we are supposed to stash all things white from our wardrobes after Monday (save white button-downs or creams). While I agree there is no place for a full bright-white ensemble in 20-degree temperatures, I disagree that after Monday all whites should be shucked, packed and put away. I think my distaste for this “rule” comes from living in New Orleans for four years. There the weather can change on a dime and no one would mock you for wearing a chic white dress in mid-October if it were 75 and sunny (which it often is). While I am excited for Autumn, Summer is my favorite season and I plan to hang on to my white pieces a little longer…

Playing Catch-Up
It’s the beginning of another new week! Mondays almost always make me feel helpless, like I’ve got so much to do and haven’t accomplished as much as I expected. By Friday, this feeling fades into the very back and is replaced by excitement and whimsy.
This week, I really do have a lot to do to prepare for vacation (yay!!!!) starting Sunday. Emails to write, projects to wrap up, plans to make, packing to do. I hope your week is starting nicely.

The Week’s End
I love, love, love this photo. It’s been a rough week, don’t we all deserve a weekend? The weather should be beautiful and even though it’s hot, it’s still Summer! I have a friend’s birthday to celebrate, dinners to go to, a house to fix up and plenty of New Orleans music to listen to as Sunday is the 5th anniversary of Katrina. It’s hard to believe! I flew out on the very last flight. The Saints were on my plane…
I hope you have a wonderful weekend with at least a little celebration.
Hot, Hot, Hot
The second night in a row without air conditioning and I feel like a crazy person. I am officially ready for cooler weather!

Leather Lust
I am one of Summer’s biggest fans. But as much as I love it, I must admit the unseasonably oppressive heat in Arkansas for the last month has me jonesing for cool, crisp fall weather. I’m looking forward to football games, boots and keeping the windows down; I’m looking forward to wearing whatever I want and topping it with a thin, comfortable jacket. Preferably leather. A leather jacket can transform ANY outfit. I’m a dress-girl. I would wear a dress over pants or a skirt any day. They’re just more comfortable! Your cutest summer dress + chic leather jacket = perfection.
