Spring Fashion Trend: Ruffles

Ruffles…not just for the bums of baby tights anymore! Ruffles are everywhere right now and are huge for spring fashion. But as an adult how do you incorporate a ruffle without looking like a 3 year old? I bought this amazing faux leather jacket from Zara recently that has just a hint of ruffle onContinue reading “Spring Fashion Trend: Ruffles”

What to Wear this Summer

We’ve had summer-like temps around here lately and I have felt rather unprepared – I was out of sunscreen, my sandals were packed away, and I really felt like I had nothing to wear. I haven’t worn my “normal” summer clothes in 2 years now (I was juuuuuust post-partum last summer so my regular clothesContinue reading “What to Wear this Summer”

Margherita Kids by Margherita Missoni

Have you seen the adorable new line of clothes from Margherita Missoni (of the Missoni family)? It’s very sweet. I found out about the line from the article in the March issue of Vogue, read a portion of it here.

Holiday Winter Travel

Raise your hand if you’re traveling at all with the upcoming holidays!!!! I haven’t done an outfit post like this in forever – honestly I love doing them but they take a long time to put together and with 2 wee ones who seem to always be in need, my time is not my ownContinue reading “Holiday Winter Travel”

Z Style – Summer Dresses

My Z is a girly girl, that comes as no surprise. So, once she realized how much she loved wearing dresses, she has requested them non-stop! Since most of our days include playground and backyard playing (sand! dirt! mud!) they aren’t always the best choice, but she does have a small collection of cute, wear-anywhereContinue reading “Z Style – Summer Dresses”

But What About the Shoes…

Temps finally rose for us in the New England area the past few days, and don’t get me wrong – I love a good 40-degree day when you can go out in a sweater and a vest instead of every layer you own PLUS a down winter coat just to stay warm. But – youContinue reading “But What About the Shoes…”

What to Wear – Fourth of July

Happy Fourth of July – here is what I’ll be wearing today to celebrate our freedom… all decked out in red, white, and blue!  And of course I’ll be eating ice cream from one of these yummy Patriotic cones! 1. Ironically, I will be wearing a blue and white striped dress that I bought atContinue reading “What to Wear – Fourth of July”

What to Wear – As a Tourist

While we’re in being tourists in the fabulous city of London this week I thought I’d share with you my thoughts on what to wear while you’re being a tourist. When you’re traveling to a place like London, you know you’ll be out and about all day visiting museums, parks, famous stores (Harrod’s!!), all theContinue reading “What to Wear – As a Tourist”

Summer Shorts

I have a serious love/hate relationship with shorts. When it’s the heat of summer, they are pretty necessary but, I hate the way my legs look in them. My answer to this issue is actually very surprising…go shorter! Maybe it’s because I’m somewhat short (5’4″) but shorts that hit right above or at my kneeContinue reading “Summer Shorts”
