Fall weather if fickle. One day it’s cold and the next it’s warm. It’s freezing when you leave in the morning, but by the afternoon you find yourself peeling off layers. Short sleeve looks are great for this time of year because they’re easy to cover up with a blazer of cardigan if it gets…
Red Velvet: Red Velvet Dress and Black Boots
I wore this red velvet dress a few times in the winter and have loved it every time. It’s a bit warmer than a typical summer dress but the weather is still unpredictable so it worked perfectly with a pair of black boots and a black crystal (but really glass I’m sure) necklace. …
Monochrome Black: Lace-Up Top and Leather Skirt
I put together another monochrome black look. I think I might be developing a pattern. This one is really simple too with more classic elements. I love the little details that keep this look from being boring; like the lace-up potions at the shoulders of the top and the leather texture of the skirt. Sometimes…
From Above: Long Sleeve Floral Top, Lace Tights and Shorts
I found these lilacs growing at the bottom of a hill while driving by hence the unusual angle for the photos. The smell was amazing and they’re such pretty flowers. I love all the various purple shades they come in as well and the sometimes crisp white. We have officially made…
Mountains: Graphic Tee, Leggings, Plaid Shirt and Combat Boots
I took another short hiking trip; this one on a mountain pass. The weather is getting ever lovelier and at this point it only really gets cold at night or on off days. I seem to be in the mood for combat boots lately. I guess my grungier side is feeding from the warmth. 🙂…
Into the Woods: Graphic Tee, Ripped Jeans and Combat Boots
This was my first hiking trip of the season. I took it easy as I shook myself from my winter hibernation and prowled the woods in search of the summer sun. I think I found the spring version, but you take what you can get. Of course this arduous journey had to be comfortable so…
Voluminous: Gathered Sleeve Button-Up Blouse and White Jeans
I love large sleeves in my tops and dresses. It doesn’t matter whether they’re gathered or loose and flared, I love them all. Something about the look feels a bit medieval to me and as a lover of high fantasy, this is a time period that I romanticize quite a bit in my head. I…
Cutouts, but Not: Mesh Insets Sweatshirt, Jeans and Combat Boots
I love cutouts in my clothing and think that a bit of skin can be a really fun way to spice up an otherwise simple piece of clothing. Nothing can really be simpler than a hooded sweatshirt so it’s a good thing that it has a version of this fun element. This is the mesh…
Crystal and Velvet: Mint Sweater, Crystal Necklace and Velvet Leggings
I realize that most people have already pulled out their summer clothes, but it’s still rather chilly here so I have yet to pack away my sweaters. I recently wore a pair of velvet leggings here and that post was also on the dressier side. I repeat the vibe. The necklace…
Working the Monochrome: Sparkly Black Top and Velvet Leggings
I shocked myself by putting together another monochrome look (black again like the one here) so soon after my previous one. This one has a different vibe though consisting of a dressy black top and velvet leggings. The crochet top is pretty sparkly and I love the hint or ruffle trim peeking out from the…
