Rising Hemlines: Part 1

IMG_9734

I recently took a bunch of dresses to a sweet little seamstress to be shortened. I felt like a floozy asking to take all these hemlines up but it was so worth it. This shirt dress was mid-calf length; awkward with a belt, sack-like without. Shortening was just the trick! More to come.
PS: do you like these winter wedges? They’re pretty amazing if I don’t say so myself.

The Fuzz

I love fur (preferably faux). It is just about the sexiest thing you can wear when it’s freezing and you’re showing a miniscule amount of skin. images via pinterest
Next up for me, a muff. Remember those? After our epic snowstorm, I have a feeling I’m going to need it.
If you’re in need of a (faux) fur, look no further than these great local spots: grey dog | lola Or online: asos | etsy

Celebrate Gift Guide

celebrate mag 12 2013
I have a very lovely friend who works for Celebrate Magazine. For the December issue, she asked my hubby and I to help her out with a pretty cool gift guide. As I said, I turned into a pageant mom when Ro modeled for The Independent. I thought it was pretty hilarious that we are both featured in the mag but not together. Photos by Jade Howard
Happy Holidays!
