Striped Skirt

July 28, 2014

These days, a-lines dominate my wardrobe, but there was a time in my life when pencil skirts commanded their fair share of closet real estate. This was especially true while working in conservative offices, where black, gray and navy reigned supreme. I’m in a more creative environment now, but I still have a soft spot for the classic cut. Just serve it up with a side of summery stripes and the pencil skirt will always have a place in my heart.

Tribal Trip

July 14, 2014

It’s Monday, so while it’s back to the grind in the office, I can guarantee you that my mind is wandering elsewhere. Maybe reminiscing about my tropical vacation in May … maybe planning my upcoming week in Arizona next month … maybe I’m just wearing these tribal print pom pom shorts, because it’s the closest I can get to feeling like I’m off on a trip somewhere. Just maybe.

Big Red

June 18, 2014

While we’re on the subject of season-appropriate jackets, allow me to introduce you to my new summer showstopper: a bright red anorak jacket. You know I love this good utility jacket, so it’s no surprise that it was love at first sight with this bold-colored beauty. I promise you, summer storms feel slightly more bearable with this little nautical-inspired topper.
