Getting all geared up for Halloween? Denver Mamas, I'll be thinking of you this weekend, and I hope you're heading over to Old South Gaylord St. My fav.
Um. It does get kinda crazy, though. A little secret? I have beer in that cup. (Shhh...we kept it stashed in the trunk.) We were accosted by parents the entire time, wondering...
I read somewhere recently that a good blazer should be one of the cornerstone pieces in every woman's wardrobe.
My original thought? Eh. Underwhelmed.
I mean, I love a good blazer, but I chose to pass on my longtime favorite: the gorgeous navy J.Crew schoolboy blazer. Why? Well, because it was constricting. The second I had it on, I wanted to rip...
Gang, we gotten several reader questions about upcoming parties and events. Some of you will be attending outdoor weddings, some of are dreading the office holiday party, and one of you just wanted to know when it's OK to wear tall leather boots to a fancy event.

Wahahahahah. . . in the spirit of the season, we thought we’d jump on board with the Rookie Moms Halloween Carnival. The Moms challenged other bloggers to come up with costume ideas that would re-use items they already own or make use of items that could easily be re-purposed.
Readers, Alexandra sent in these pics of herself right before a much-needed date night (ummm...I need one too).
I love the eclectic look here - the combination of patterns, the modern wedges and vintage shawl. It's just fresh, fun, and pretty. Perfect for date night!
I'm totally sold on the idea of throwing a vintage shawl on over a simple...
Poochy mamas, rejoice! This season has a ton of adorable, pooch-hiding tops in store...and the best news? Not an empire-waist in sight!
Outfit 1 - Playing at the Park
I tried on the BB Dakota top. It's like a strange, but sophisticated hoodie that is crazy-comfortable and totally pooch-hiding. So comfy, in fact, it could easily double as loungewear with...
I know the buzz this fall is all about the flare jean, and I get it - I too luuuve flares. However, I recently replaced my old boyfriend jeans (which, uh, had literally fallen apart) with these babies:
These are like a hybrid boyfriend jean /skinny jean. The result? Crazy comfortable, yet they look a bit sleeker than my old...
From time to time, we get reader questions that are focused on shopping - what to buy, where to shop, etc. And unless I know you personally (or have some idea of your taste, body type and what's in your current wardrobe), it's a tough question to answer.
However, I realized that since having kids, my methods for shopping...
The weather in our little part of Japan has gone from high 80s and humid to high 50s and damp in a matter of days. When you factor in the wetness, some days are downright cold! Weather like this makes it easy for me to dress like a stuffed raincoat, but I have to fight the urge.
I saw...
I've been wearing cords for years. Decades, actually. How long exactly? Without completely revealing my age, I'm pretty sure my first pair of cords were, in fact, bell-bottomed, and looked surprisingly similar to these:
Ahhhh....nothing screams Fall in the 1970s!!! like a woodland-creature / mushroom motif on a sweet pair of chocolate brown flare cords. Ya know?
Actually, these are still...
