Current Obsession // Metallic Brogues
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good heel. But as a fan of menswear, something about the whimsical-yet-no-nonsense vibe of shiny metallic brogues adds just enough machismo (and comfort) to keep an outfit from getting too sweet. SHOP IT! //

Tips & Advice // 4 Reasons to Create A Look
I have this weird habit of editorializing my personal style--it comes with the job, I guess. Though I don’t go quite as far as wearing the same thing every day like this art director (which actually seems like a good idea), I like creating a look each season because it makes it easier for me to shop and edit my wardrobe. The benefits are small but meaningful: In addition to saving time getting dressed every

Shop Around // Camargo Trading Company
On one of my first trips to Camargo Trading Company, nosiness/curiosity led me on a dizzying exploration of wedding registry plates, plaid picture frames, and other tchotchkes and gifts for the ladies-who-lunch-in-yoga-pants set. I’d seen just about everything when, lured by a “Sale” sign, I cautiously headed towards a quiet corner in the back of the store.

What’s on My Spring/Summer Wish List
It’s that time of the year and I’ve got warm weather on the brain! For Spring, I’m obsessed with tropical prints: lush greens and blues with bright coral and tangerine accents, all tempered by contrast-y black and white. Yes, I’m fully aware that orange makes me look like a corpse but I don’t care! I have a whole Elvis-in-Hawaii-meets-downtown-it-girl thing in mind and I’m determined to make it happen. Here’s what’s been swirling around in

Fashion // Try These Fall 2015 Trends Now
With fashion month under our collective designer belts and Winter a not-so-distant memory (hallelu!), it might seem weird to talk about Fall when everyone is so desperate for Spring. Real talk, though: It’s not exactly hot outside. In fact, this transition period is one of the few times of year when we can mix winter and summer gear and not look completely crazy. Wanna wear a tank top with a faux fur chubby and boots?

Style // Fuzzy Wuzzy Wuz a Sweater
There are sweaters and then there are sweaters. I enjoy a good cuddle, so for me, the cozier the better. After pulling this vintage mohair sweater for a photo shoot months ago, I was innocently browsing at Hi-Bred when I just happened to see it was still available. It was fate, y’all. I wore it with a satin skirt in the same creamy shade, vintage flower earrings, and caramel colored boots and tried to refrain
