Outfit 4 from the Holiday Capsule Wardrobe

I love having a dressy blazer in my closet.  It’s a quick way to glam up a simple black shell and trousers, looks fun over a graphic tee, can turn a work blouse and pants into festive attire.  In my holiday capsule wardrobe, I included a red velvet blazer from Talbots.  While red velvet can…

Cocktail Pantsuit: Outfit 3 from the Holiday Capsule Wardrobe

I think in 2019 suits really became my signature.  If I had an occasion, nine times out of ten I reached for a suit.  While I became sort of known for rocking a suit with just a bra this year; I really love how being all covered up can also be sexy.  I rocked a…

You May Have Seen This Before…

For years I bought just to have new outfits on the blog.  I knew if I had new, readers would purchase it.  If I had new, the photos would do great on Instagram.  I justified the cost and the overloaded closet on my job.  I needed it all to be successful, right?  RIGHT?    Wrong. …

What I Wore Off The Blog

I believe in quality, not quantity when it comes to what you put in your closet.  However, when it comes to outfit photos I’m trying to do quantity and not focus on quality.  This way I can do more of these “what I wore off the blog” posts to show that you should focus on…

What I Wore Off the Blog

I’m trying to be better about photographing all my outfits, not just the ones I’m wearing when my husband has his fancy-dancy camera with him.  Here are some of the most recent outfits I’ve worn out and about: Sweater: Everlane (L) | Pants: The Pleated Culottes c/0 And Comfort (0X) | Boots: La Canadienne |…
