Happy Monday, everyone!

This past week was one of those weeks I wished we had more hours in a day and more days in a week. Between school events, planning for my youngest one’s birthday party, trying to do some Christmas shopping and working on some house maintenance, there really wasn’t much time for anything else. I really just want to hibernate. I envy the bears.

Anyway, enough about me! Today it’s all about those tan boots I mentioned I was hunting for here. I finally found the ones! Continue reading →

Happy Cyber Monday!

Did you have a relaxed Thanksgiving break with lots of family time or did you spend your time fighting the crowd at the mall? I chose the former with some online shopping squeezed in between. I, for one, could not resist the 50% off sale at Express. I ordered a whole bunch of things, including these Quilted Zipper Scuba leggings. Love them! Continue reading →

Happy Black Friday!

I don’t dare set foot in a mall on Black Friday. I just don’t do well with crowds. They bring out the worst in me, so I stay away. But that doesn’t mean I forego shopping on the biggest sales day of the year. Quite the opposite. I do all my shopping in the comfort of my own home, in my PJs with a laptop and coffee in hand. I thought I’d share some of my picks from my favorite stores with you while I’m at it. Enjoy! Continue reading →

Trends come and go and I have my share of fun with them but I always find myself going back to my first love, understated classics. A structured blazer, my favorite black jeans and a pair of boots, to me, define a classic outfit. The same goes for a color palette that includes camel, black and gold. They might not catch your attention at first glance but their timeless appeal always comes through as their understated elegance becomes apparent. Continue reading →

On the Hunt for…Tan Boots

I am currently on a mission to find the perfect tan knee-high boots. It’s late in the game but in the beginning of the fall season, I tried to convince myself that I was all set with tall boots. I have a handful of go-to boots in different colors that I wear all the time. Since I already have a pair of tan boots, albeit outdated, I had been turning a blind eye every time I ran into a pair of tan boots online or at a store, or on a friend or passerby. Well, that didn’t last very long. The more I saw them, the more I just couldn’t stay away. And so my hunt begins… Continue reading →

Happy Monday, everyone!

I have to be honest with you. It’s around this time of year, when chilly temperatures start taking over, that my level of energy and motivation slowly begin to wane. It’s a struggle to get motivated to do anything when it’s cold outside. I seriously just want to cuddle up under a warm and cozy blanket and drink hot chocolate all day. Continue reading →

I bought these Anthropologie slouchy cargo pants a couple of months ago but never got a chance to wear them. I figured it would be now or never because the temperatures are dropping quickly, they’re predicting highs in the low 30s next week. Continue reading →
