These Trina Turk pants are the perfect example of great pattern play. I love mixing prints and patterns {broken record} and these mini Berber stripe jacquard pants really do it for me. The pattern mixing is excellent and because they're only white and purple, rather than multi-colored it allows me to pair them with lots of tops in my closet rather than just a few. I can easily play these up to wear on the weekend or tone them down during the work week like I did for this outfit. I love that my 3.1 Phillip Lim silk crop blouse just ... Read more...
Three ways to Style a Maxi Dress
1. Layering a sweater over a maxi dress allows for you to wear your maxi dress into the night. It breaks up your outfit making it look more like a top and skirt than a dress. Bright pops of color make this great for the Spring and Summer months but you can make it Fall friendly by pairing with dark, richer colors. 2. Tying a sweater around your waist or over your shoulders makes it easy to stay out all day and not freeze as the temperatures start to drop. Over the shoulders makes for a preppier look and around the waist is ... Read more...
Dress like a Boss
You know how they say you should dress for the job you want not the job you have. I'm not saying that the job I have now isn't great, it is, but I definitely don't plan for this to be the best position I ever hold. So, if you want to be a boss, then dress like a boss!

I plan my outfits around how I feel, so when I get up in the morning, I go with what I gravitate towards. A pencil skirt is a great ... Read more...
On Wednesday’s we Wear Pink
I loved the movie Mean Girls when it came out but I'm almost ashamed to say that I still enjoy re-watching the movie. When Wednesday's roll around I can't help but think of Mean Girls and how "on Wednesday's we wear pink!" Pink isn't just for Valentines day it's totally for the work week too! When I found these Theory trousers right before V-day I was so excited. They were perfect and exactly what I was looking for. But how perfect are they for a day at the office? Totally perfect! Pink pants can be the pop you are looking for ... Read more...
Put a Bow on it!
This bow belt has been almost a better investment than the dress it came with! A quick way to dress up even the most casual of dresses is to put a bow on it! This skinny high-waist bow belt is the perfect solution. I've worn this belt with some many outfits but this simple solution takes this otherwise simple grey jersey dress to the next level and is probably one of my favorite pairings. These neutral sandals I scored at TJ Maxx works perfectly with this outfit for a weekend look and my new favorite week day to weekend bag is the ... Read more...
