Sometimes you just want to wear a sweatshirt, can I get an amen? I don’t know about you, but for me there are days when I want to let my body hang loose and snuggle up in some soft, fuzzy cotton. But you see, there are days when vanity still shows up for duty, even […]
Yesterday was not a lazy Sunday for me – lots of errands, work obligations, and running around, it just didn’t have the rhythm of a Sunday. But my body was feeling that lazy weekend vibe and just wanted to be in something stretchy. An easy, easy, easy outfit. Ribbed bodysuit: check. Sweatpants: check. Suede (esque) […]
Today’s offering is a mini-post of sorts, since next week kicks off Fashion Month and it’s going to be very content-heavy (who’s excited?!? Moi!). So let’s get to it: May I recommend Nicholas maxi dresses? Hear me out. Last week, my mom and stepdad were in town, which meant lots of delicious family dinners and […]
It has been BALMY here in the Bay Area! So on Friday, when I had plans to meet a friend for a fitting in the City (more on that in another post, I promise), light-and-airy was the wardrobe mode of the day. I love a green and blue color palette, so this dress – complete […]
Last weekend, one of my best friends had her bachelorette party (or “Final Flamingle,” as we called it, since the bride has a thing for flamingos!) up in the Sonoma wine country. And O. M. G. was it a blast! Her sister, one of the Great Organizers of All Time, arranged everything with the help […]
Palm print is absolutely everywhere nowadays, including at our latest family barbecue. There is something slightly campy about a palm print, isn’t there? Maybe that’s why it’s such a fun choice for summer, a time when we indulge in a lighthearted sentimentality that takes us back to summer camps or vacations of yore. We had […]
I went braless for a day, and the world didn’t fall apart. Not only that, but I went braless to a meeting. Like, with a real, important businesslady who politely scheduled a meeting time with me in a very civilized and sophisticated manner. Granted, it was at a coffeeshop by the BART station, but still. […]
How was your Fourth of July? We spent ours here in the Bay, taking it easy with friends and family. A longtime family friend has a beautiful property in Walnut Creek, and every year they host a barbeque. It’s a wonderful excuse to get together and catch up! Fourth of July calls for laid-back, comfy […]
Are you a gingham person? I hadn’t given it much thought, to be honest. In the back of my mind, I associated it with Dorothy, Lady and the Tramp, and summertime picnics. It didn’t feel “fashiony”. Then I saw this dress/jacket/kimono/??? from the brand Acler. On the hanger, it looked like a craft project gone […]
My sister and I have had a tradition since we were kids of going into stores and picking out the most ridiculous items possible to try on. The uglier, the more ridiculous, the more potential to cause a traffic accident, the better. Is it made of multiple forms of plastic? Great. Is the ratio of […]
