Talbots is one of my favorite retailers, and I am so excited that starting today. they're offering 30% off your entire purchase with promo code FRIENDS30 (sale through October 28). This suit is from Talbots and has been one of my favorites all season long. You've seen the pants before in this outfit post, and I wore the suit with a blush pink camisole to my friend Sylvia's birthday brunch.…
Friday night Karl and I attended the Butterfly Bash, a gala to raise funds for Fair Chance DC. Proceeds from the event allow Fair Chance to strengthen the sustainability and performance of community-based nonprofits to achieve life-changing results for children and youth living in poverty. Since 2002, Fair Chance has engaged more than 100 nonprofits and reached 80,000 children, youth and families in Washington, DC. This year the event took…
Fall has finally hit in the DC area and it's straight up cold. It was literally 90 degrees one day last week so it's hard to accept we're in the season for coats and boots. We pulled out all of Emerson's winter clothes and also received a Stitch Fix box for her that has some super adorable and super warm pieces. As for me, I haven't pulled out my winter…
Just call me a hypocrite, or maybe a convert. Just a few short months ago I told a reader to get rid of a pair of high-waisted cropped wide-leg jeans and now here I am wearing a pair.

A year ago, I purchased my first pair of Rothy’s flats. After giving them a real beating through the streets of New York, I wrote my first Rothy’s flats review. Since then, tens of thousands of you have read that review and purchased your own pairs of Rothy’s. And since then, I have added to my Rothy’s shoe collection, trying out their Points, Flats, Loafers, and their Sneaker. I have…
“I always struggle with what to wear at parties in my own home. Mostly we're talking semi-relaxed lunches and dinners. Somehow it feels wrong to wear heels or blazers at home, especially in the kitchen. Sometimes I have worn a maxi dress and flip-flops, but it's actually a bit too relaxed for me (my intention was to wear something that would make my guests relax). Next month I'm hosting a…

I saw this asymmetrical hem cashmere sweater at Chico's and knew it would be a perfect wardrobe addition for fall and winter. Sweater | Pants | Shoes | Bag | Earrings Sweater: Black Label Cashmere Sweater c/o Chico's (2) | Pants: Black Label Faux-Leather Pants c/o Chico's (1.5) | Boots:…
Earlier this month, news broke that plus-size fashion retailer ELOQUII was purchased by Walmart. This was a business move that confused and concerned many in the plus size community. How would this merger affect the future of ELOQUII? Would Walmart affect the business practices, employees, and clothing quality of ELOQUII? I had a chat with Jodi Arnold, Creative Director of ELOQUII and asked her this and other questions I had…
