So whenever we can’t find anything to watch at night, my husband and I watch Hoarders On Demand. It is one of the most disturbing shows I have ever watched, but it’s very interesting and I really feel for the people, especially the one’s who have faced loss and can’t get rid of their loved [...]

I love featuring other stylish girls’ outfits. Not only does it take pressure off of me to dress well all the time (kidding!), it also gives a nice fresh perspective to observe. Today I am showing off Shauna E (@Meowsk), one of my twitter followers who also enjoys a great pair of brightly colored tights. *click [...]

Here’s another quick hair tutorial to create a faux curly bob. This is a great look for those of us who don’t want to chop off our long locks, but still want that cute short hairdo from time to time. It’s also one of the easiest and most complimented hairstyles I know how to do! [...]

Ok, so I admit I haven’t see Avatar yet. I know, I’m missing out on the “amazing graphics” and “epic love story,” but I just haven’t had the time or will to go see it in theaters. I think this will probably be a renter for me, but one thing I wont put off is [...]

It’s no secret that I am an Aveda believer. I’ve stocked up on most of their products, from hair styling to tea. So it’s no surprise that I got my husband into the Aveda craze. While he still supplements his pomade with the occasional drugstore gel, he sticks to Aveda Men Pure-formance Shampoo and Conditioner [...]

Every now and then I just get an urge to wear all black. I think it’s sort of like a superhero mentality; your putting on a disguise that feels mysterious, powerful, sophisticated, and a little bit dangerous. It’s an outfit you can’t wear all the time though, or it loses it’s mystique. *click images for a [...]

For today’ post I wanted to feature another etsy seller and cute thrifter, Tess from *EDIT* Tessaboo.typepad.com. “sweater- trade on etsy; tights- hand me down from sis; scarf- gift from sis; dress, belt, and shoes- thrifted” There’s a lot of amazingness going on in this outfit that we can take as inspiration for layering our own pieces. First, Tess [...]

So the other day when I was meeting with some of my close friends for lunch, we got into the discussion of green living. We talked about how a lot of times people see it as a liberal, cooky spiritual way of living, when in actuality it’s something we can all participate in order to [...]

I thought I’d post what I wore this last Saturday to show you a simple, comfortable outfit for the weekend. I think people often get the impression that being fashionable means 1. a lot of effort, and 2. being uncomfortable. Untrue! I find my most flattering, successful outfits are the ones I didn’t “try too hard” [...]

We all fell in love with Audrey Tautou as the quirky Amelie, but her talent has only cultivated and blossomed as seen in her 2009 portrayal of Coco Chanel in Coco Before Chanel. Predictably the amount of beautiful garments in the movie are endless, but one of my favorite outfits Audrey wears is a simple [...]

Today’s Friday favorite features Sephora’s Ultimate Blockbuster makeup palette. I got this giant palette for Christmas, and I’m in love with all of the colorful eyeshadows, eyeliners, lip-liners, lip glosses, and blushes. I feel like a child with too many toy options, and I couldn’t be happier! While Sephora palettes tend to get a bad rep [...]

Animals are perhaps even more susceptible to harmful chemicals because they just don’t know any better!

To start off the new year strong, I’ve given Bachman’s Sparrow a whole new look! A better layout, added features, and more user friendly applications were called for, and I’m excited with how the progress has come along. Today I wanted to take some time to show you all the changes that have taken place: First [...]

Not “lit-erally” of course, but today’s outfit is definitely inspired by the infamous stylist star of Bravo’s Rachel Zoe Project. After a few years of skinny, skinny jeans and the occasional bootcut, Rachel showed me there were other cuts out there to explore. I guess I’ve been hesitant to stray from the skinny when I [...]
