Recent Fashion Hits and Misses: LOFT Edition

After my last LOFT experience I didn’t plan on shopping there again. I felt I had aged out of the store. However so many of you raved to me about the LOFT linen tees I decided to give them another chance. So glad I did! While not everything was a hit for me, this was…

POPSUGAR #MustHaveBox June 2016 Review

I’m not one into subscription boxes. I’ve tried a few but I find usually the items aren’t things I really want, need, or will use. However, in the past I was offered a free POPSUGAR Must Have Box and was impressed with the contents. I still regularly use items from it and found the value…

Everlane Sizing: Can a Size 14 Woman Wear Everlane?

I’m trying to buy not just for the here and now, but the future. I know I am not alone in thinking this may be a temporary size for my body, but I am over holding off on personal style and quality clothing because of it. Let’s be real, the last time I was under…

Recent Fashion Purchases: Boden Edition

Oh Boden, how I love you. You go up past a size 12 and some of your items come in petite and tall. You have stellar customer service – seriously if you’re not sure what size to buy call them, they’re the best and so patient and knowledgeable. Easy shipping and returns and plenty of…

Unexpected Versatility: Creating Outfits not Capsules

I’ve been wearing the LOFT Custom Stretch Trousers for several years. They’re machine washable, a classic professional cut, match some blazers, and the 14 petite is the perfect length for me with low heels. However, I craved a change of silhouette and on a whim tried the Banana Republic Ryan pants (also in 14 petite)….

Recent Fashion Hits and Misses – ASOS Edition

With my last hits and misses post, my friend (and fabulous personal stylist) Rosana said she’d like to see me try out ASOS this season. She’s been having a lot of success with her clients, I trust her style and shopping skills, so I took a look. I’m looking for some weekend summer looks –…

Men’s Suiting at Nordstrom

When we were getting ready for our friends’ wedding we realized Karl’s best suit is no longer the best. With styles changing and his body changing with a new diet and exercise regime, his dapper trouser and jacket looked like something he may have bought from Chess King in 1992. It was time for an…

What to Buy at the Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale

Oh Nordstrom, I just can’t quit you. Each time I venture to another retailer I find the prices are higher for the same things, the selection is smaller, there’s fewer pieces in my size, and the service just doesn’t compare. Add a sale of up to 40% off current items and I swoon. So on…
