A huge thank you to ShopStyle Collective and DSW for sponsoring this post!
I've always felt that excitement for the beginning of the school year, but this year -- this year -- is special. Last year we took Greenlea's first day of school picture on the front steps, her holding her laptop, ready to start first grade and then opened...
Those Staud Chelsea boots — the cool-girl ones, in that gorgeous shade of green — have been playing a little hard to get. They showed up in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale preview, got us all excited, and then -- poof! -- disappeared. The word we got was that they weren't part of the sale any longer. So imagine our...
As a clog lover, I'll be the first to admit. Some of them just look...frumpy. If you follow me here, I think (and hope) frumpy would be the last thing to describe my style choices. Ain't nobody got time for that lewk, friends. Haha.
So, What Makes Clogs Look 'Cool'?
After years of searching thousands of shoes, it's no surprise...
I used to be young. Seriously. I purchased 5-inch Paris Hilton platform heels (that's hot) and teetered around...OK, not the clubs, but definitely the local pub after rehearsals for whatever show I was in at the moment.
I stopped that nonsense a few years ago, to the point where when I went to pack up my shoes for our move,...
I don't necessarily buy a new pair of Birkenstocks every summer, but this year I found myself wanting to try a bunch. I've lived in my silver Arizonas and my white big buckle Arizonas for the last few summers, but now I'm ready to mix it up a bit and try a few other shades. I love my sneakers...
I love a trend, especially a '90s shoe trend. When Steve Madden brought back their legendary Slinky Black Sandals I squealed with delight and was immediately transported back to boy band wars, Trapper Keepers, and trips to Claire's to see how far my $20 in babysitting coin could take me.
Unfortunately, nostalgia did not supersede reality and the sandals...
I've been a longtime fan of clog sandals and each year I look forward to some cute variations in addition to the tried-and-true favs. I started seeing them everywhere recently so I had to round up the latest styles! Clog sandals are just that perfect mix of classic and cute for spring & summer. AND they give you height...
Athleta recently had their Friends & Family Sale and I bought all. the. things. Since falling in love with their Cabo Linen Line last summer (hello, perfect pants for spring and summer) and finding the perfect loungewear outfit-that-doesn't-look-like-pjs last fall, Athleta is now one of my favorite brands.
This Must Be The Outfit: Athleta Nolita Pants & Conscious...
It’s springtime; the birds are singing louder, the sun feels warmer, and there is increasingly more light in the sky with each passing day. You’re about to go outside to soak up some much needed vitamins after the winter, and as you head to the door you slip on your favorite pair of boots.
BOOTS?
Surely, you meant sandals.
Nope! Believe...
Sneakers with dresses and jumpsuits are always a good idea, and that is a hill I will die on! I'm not talking about the white gym sneakers and pantyhose popular among working women in the 1980s, running to and from the office in their shoulder-padded suits, heels tucked away in their purses. These sneakers ARE the outfit. They're function...
