Alright, alright, alright, first things first: I love you, I miss you, I love you, I miss you, I love you, I miss youuuu! YES it’s been too long since I’ve posted – and I’m afraid the Busy Bee Train has kept chugging through June and will likely steam on into July and our little […]
This look is the perfect example of what happens when you mix WASP and Latin flavors – that measured, self-conscious modesty of a well-tailored knit married with the unapologetic, let-it-all-hang-out lust for life that only a ruffled bodycon silhouette could bring. I’ve long been a champion of the fitted knit dress, as it embodies the […]
So what if my ideal power suit includes a crop top and a belly chain? In the Stig boardroom, there are only two rules: 1. Wear what honors who you are and what you’re up to, and 2. Never hang knits. Nowhere in Company guidelines does it say to never mix midriff and shoulder pads. […]
Lemme paint you a picture: it’s a a spring evening, warm – say, a balmy 70 – and you’re drinking a glass of red as the sun sets over the olive orchards. You’ve had fresh pasta with young asparagus for dinner, the air smells like lemons, rosemary, and clean soil. You feel robustly squishy and […]
Every now and then, an outfit comes along that surprises you – this knit set was one of them. I mean, a polo shirt? A midi skirt? All knit, like an extra’s outfit from The Queen’s Gambit? And in lime??? Ah, yes, people: it happened. It was just so clingy, so shiny, so demure yet […]
I’m just going to leave this right here in case you’d like a Valentine’s outfit suggestion: a cozy knit and a bomb corset top. Trust me – no matter your plans, you can’t go wrong with this one. Unless, of course, you plan on going hiking, or participating in a rodeo (not the metaphorical kind, […]
We’re talking KNITS! Specifically doing it up SWEATER DRESS STYLE! Whoop! They’re slinky, they’re cozy, they’re sweet – but not at all demure. This specific combo, the sweater dress over a turtleneck, was a fixture in my childhood. All of the Moms and Teachers wore sweater dresses like this, with chunky gold jewelry and pumps. […]
Ok, before we start on my fave looks of 2020, I know that no one is particularly eager to look back fondly on this year – and it was a year. And while I’m the first to say that there are no guarantees that 2021 will magically be better (I’m not one to sugarcoat things), […]
I’m not saying that the blue on blue look is a political statement (but it’s totally a political statement). I wore this ensemble last Wednesday to run errands and frankly, I was exhausted. Four days of working the polls in Alameda County had taken their toll. 12- to 15-hour days in a high school auditorium, […]
I know, I know – I said that this was the easiest date night outfit – but trust me when I say that this short suit gives it a run for its money. The short suit has been everywhere this summer, hasn’t it? In cotton, in tweed, in linen like the one I wore for […]
