While many of the outfits that walk down the runway would be impossible to wear for most of us, they do provide a good source of inspiration when it comes to our own wardrobes. In particular, I like to observe how certain shapes and pieces are put together as well as what colors are popular [...]

One of the best ways to add interest to an outfit is by incorporating a scarf into the mix. But, it’s easy to get into a “scarf rut” and wear it the same way of simply wrapping it around your neck every day. The following are a few different ways for women and men to [...]

Thanksgiving makes me think of pies, and pies make me think of the Pie Maker, which of course makes me think of Pushing Daisies. The show may be gone and off the air, but the brightly colored cinematography and wonderfully retro clothing will not be forgotten. In particular, Charlotte (better known as Chuck) Charles’ wardrobe [...]

This year has been an amazing one for me. I graduated from college, I got married, and I am starting my own business. While some might find all these changes overwhelming, it’s been nothing but an adventure thus far. And that in itself is what I am thankful for this year. A couple of years [...]

I am always torn on what to wear during the holidays. Half of me wants to be as cozy as possible in order to fully enjoy my day off. The other half knows that photos will almost certainly be taken, and I have had enough memories of me looking awkward to last a lifetime. So [...]

I love Maggie Gyllenhaal and it’s not just because she shares her face with Jake-y. She has an old Hollywood + New bohemian look about her that she pulls off effortlessly. And on top of that, she has some real talent to boot. I think my favorite role I’ve seen her in so far was [...]

When your natural color palate is a bit monotone like myself (especially now that I am back to brunette), adding some pigment to your skin with blush makes a world of difference. It has the effect of lighting up your entire complexion, and gives you that sexy “I live life to the fullest so I’m [...]

In honor of the much anticipated New Moon premier, today’s post will help bring out your inner vampire. From different textures of black on black, to pale nude lips and deep sunken eyes, who better to look to for blood thirsty fashion than Marc Jacobs?

Whenever I see Natalie Portman grace a magazine cover I fall in love. The latest V Magazine is no exception as they bring out Natalie’s inner androgyny clothed in Swarovski embellished Calvin Klein Jeans. Here are a few images from the magazine’s spread: Leather and White tees by Bachman’s Sparrow featuring Splendid These photos are prime examples of [...]
