It's November and the temperature has definitely dropped so I have pulled out my sweaters, boots, scarves, and gloves. I love to layer but I hate to feel too bundled when dressing for work. No one wants to look like a snow bunny at their desk, right? My main issue with cold weather is that my stylish fitted blazers and jackets are uncomfortable when layered over long sleeves and sweaters. To solve that issue I decided to layer my Burberry button down shirt with my cozy Piazza Sempione wrap sweater. I have to say this is one of ... Read more...
Ruffles and Lace
When looking for new pieces to compliment my ever growing wardrobe I prefer to invest in pieces that I know I will have in my closet for years to come. This Wendy Hill lace short sleeve jacket was one of those pieces. I purchased this blouse around 8 years ago and I still love it as much as the day I bought it. One of my work week outfit staples is pairing a feminine blouse with skinny jeans and a great pair of sky high heels. Here I decided to pair two of my favorite things, ruffles and lace. What is your staple outfit for ... Read more...
Label For Less
I am always on the hunt for new shoes. In our current living situation I don't even have enough storage space for the shoes I already have (I'll admit I have a lot) but I can't resist getting new pairs of shoes.

If you have a shoe shopping problem I recommend that you do not join. Your wallet will thank you. Anywhoo, after filling out my profile ... Read more...
My Fall Must Have List
Every season I create a mental list of my must haves after scouring the internet, checking out what's been shown on the runways and reading fashion mags. Since starting this blog I've been able to organize my fashion findings both obtainable and out of reach (at least for the time being that is) and create my have, need, and want lists, hence the name of my blog. So here it is, my list for Fall. Leather: Vince, leather tee, $595, available here. (For those on a budget & who have a Nordy's card I would recommend using your ... Read more...
Better than a Pub Crawl
The other night I headed up to the city after work to attend a Fashion Crawl. What a great concept, right?! Not too many shops have more than one location in the same city let alone the same street, but this concept could easily be recreated if more than one boutique decided to co-host an event. Heidi Says boutique hosted the event at all three of their Fillmore Street locations. What a fun event and a great excuse to get some of my Fall shopping out of the way! What Fall must-haves are you hoping to rotate into your ... Read more...
