What I Wore: Seeing Spots

Dress: LOFT | Tights: Spanx | Shoes: Jessica Simpson | Bag: HOBO (similar) I picked this dress up about a month ago and love its easy one-step dressing. The dress is advertised as a mini dress so I went with a Regular Large to have more length. It’s sort of ponte, sort of sweatshirt material…

Scrimp or Splurge – What’s Your Number?

Tuesday’s post about white tee shirts got me thinking. I believe we all have a number, that price we won’t cross for certain items for our closet. I often read interviews with style icons and they’ll say how they scrimp for X but splurge for Y, and often I feel the complete opposite about those…

Why Would Someone Pay $150 for a White Tee Shirt?

When some things become popular I really wonder what trendsetters were smoking. This is especially true when commonplace things have a fancy name slapped on them and they’re suddenly worth $500. I’m not going to spend my hard-earned money to advertise YOUR brand, especially if I can find similar at Target for a bundle less….

Ask Allie: Are Pantyhose Stylish?

Since I’m in my 60’s now, I am uncomfortable in dresses without hosiery. Is it ok to wear them now? Or is bare legged still the trend? Three cheers for Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge who brought nude hose back en vogue. While the bare legged trend isn’t going anywhere, because of Kate there’s far more…

Recent Purchases: Hits and Misses

I’m slowly filling in holes in my wardrobe. Though I lost some weight from Whole30 I am still not the same shape and size I was last winter so I need to do a bit of purchasing. I’m also noticing how some of my “classic” items aren’t all that classic. For example, Monday morning I…
