I was tempted to call this post, “What I Wore: Bad hair and too much wind for a photo shoot.” Honestly, if I wasn’t sharing my real life core wardrobe, I’d likely scrap this shoot but this is real life…
Alison’s Favorite Things of 2018
Inspired by Oprah’s Favorite Things, below is a list of things I absolutely love and have made my wardrobe, skin, or life in general better. While this is a blog that focuses on style, I think that extends past the…
What I Wore: One Shoulder
I already had the sleeveless version of this sweater and wear it all the time (it was even in my first real life capsule wardrobe). When I saw it came with a sleeve I had to have it (and shocker,…
What I Wore: Cropped Wide-Leg Jeans
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. These aren’t…

What I Wore: Bold Floral
A fan of both Marimekko and Georgia O’Keeffe, when I saw this ELOQUII red floral jumpsuit I HAD to have it! A little bit Unikko print (which was my bedding for the longest time), a little bit Oriental Poppies, it’s…
What I Wore: Shades of Blue
When you match the decor, you just HAVE to take some photos! Karl and I checked out Burton’s Grill & Bar, a restaurant chain along the Eastern Seaboard. With locations from Massachusetts to North Carolina, this is the first one…
