If there’s ever been a best time to shop Lands’ End it’s right now. They excel in spring and summer fashion and gear. Even better, their Friends & Family sale started with 40% off full price purchases with promo code FAMILY and PIN 6894. I’ve been a fan of Lands’ End for years; they do…
If you read my post about how to wear the neon trend, you’ve already seen this outfit. This is a “real life outfit” that I wore on a day out and about. It was one of those days that looked warm with clear blue skies but was quite windy with a nip in the air….
I know not everyone loves neon, but I do. When Wham! Came out with their video to “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go” I was OBSESSED. My parents didn’t have a lot of money, but they got me a neon orange scarf to tie in a big bow on the side of my head and…
I love hoop earrings, and since high school, I’ve worn bamboo hoops. Although I still wear them, I feel they are looking a bit try-hard on me if not with just the right outfit. I don’t walk around with a t-shirt saying, “No really, I’ve worn these earrings for 25 years” and a middle-aged white…

It’s clear I love overalls. I own four pairs and have been tempted to purchase more. They’re fun and look funky and artsy. They don’t care if you ate a whole burrito from Chipotle and are way more comfy, especially when sitting and on humid days, than a pair of jeans. I loved overalls back…
It’s good to have a few versatile dresses in your closet at the ready for all sorts of situations. This dress from Universal Standard has been worn many times yet this is its debut on the blog. I love that it’s a classic style with an edge thanks to a modern cut and mixed media…
I find jeans to be one of the hardest things to shop for, right up there with bras and swimwear. When it comes to white jeans, it’s even more difficult. They’re transparent, they bag out, they’re too thin, they’re shaped weird… why is it so hard to take a wardrobe staple and make it wearable? …
Ann Taylor reached out asking if I’d like to try their new suiting collection and I jumped at the chance. Long-time readers of Wardrobe Oxygen know I used to be a major Ann Taylor fan and regularly recommended their suiting. In recent years I haven’t found the suiting as high of quality… no more. Their…
