I realllly hate being cold. Especially when we're about to head out to a party — I won't suffer uncomfortable shoes for fashion, and I won't freeze for fashion, either. One trick that I've been playing around with is the layering of jackets. Layering a soft velvet blazer underneath a faux-fur or leather one means that I'm warm enough...
Hi, I'm Shana and I love going out. I also hate being cold. And these two truths basically explain my almost manic approach to winter weekends: Let's go out!! Let's stay in!! No, let's go out!! No...it's COLD. STAY IN. OUT! IN! OUT! IN! OUT! IN! HEELS! SWEATPANTS! HEELS! SWEATPANTS! HEELS!
I am exhausting. Just ask my husband. (Or really,...
We'll be heading to the in-law's in the country (and I do mean country) for Christmas, and will be going to Christmas Eve mass at the little church in town. It's always charming and lovely, but I do hesitate a bit...as far as what to wear. Heels or dainty flats? Dressy dress or fancy pants? I love a good...
This is as much for me as it is for any of you. I just so happen to be my own worst enemy when it comes to stuff like this. I do this thing where I decide I want to host a little holiday shindig at our home, get all excited about it and then...don't follow through and actually...
Is anyone else's brain fried right about now? This time of year is so busy between the concerts and the recitals and the holiday parties and the gift-buying and the decorating and the planning and . . . I often find myself just staring at my closet, mind completely blank, when it comes time to get dressed. Putting together...
Oh, yes. The annual school program at the kid's school. Such a fun time...and that may sound sarcastic of me, but I actually do look forward to them. It's fun being able to see my kid out in the world, doing stuff. Adorable! Also, let's all be honest here. These performances can be ridiculously funny.
I'm just assuming you've all been...
Casual + comfy + cute — those are my three main outfit goals while getting dressed for a festive and frenzied day of last-minute Holiday Shopping. As tempted as I am to always dress up every time I'm doing anything Christmas related — ya know, decked out with some sequins or velvet — I have to remind myself that...
I love the holidays. Like lovelovelove everything about them. Much to my husband's chagrin, I always try busting out our holiday decor weeks before I should, and my daughter, Greenlea, was right there with me this year. I've literally never seen anyone more excited about decorating a tree. So when Shana brought us to Miracle on South 13th Street when we...
Can I just start by saying I'm slightly navy velvet-obsessed this year? There's just something so rich and beautiful about navy velvet, and I want to wear it all the time. OK. We got that out of the way. Can I also tell you that this fabulous look right here is all from Walmart.com? I know, right? When they reached...
Guys. I think I'm gonna ask Thanksgiving to be early every year. I feel like this year we've actually had the time to do some fun holiday things! We got our tree cut from the farm and put up last weekend and we've already baked some fun cookies! I think we are already winning Christmas. Let's hope it's not...
