J Jill Who knew....?




CREAM AND SUGAR

I will own this shoe!! I just need to wait for a coupon code....
shoe BCBG


Ok, so My mom wanted me to go into J Jill to look for some jeans for her and to my surprise
I found this amazing slouchy trench! It is the loveliest putty color and has a more casual beachy feel to it than my more formal J Crew classic trench. I have always loved nudes,
putty and beige colors. they are always classic and look so yummy with white or faded denim.
I know I won't tire of in a few years.

Coach signature wedges


Nordstroms nine west shoes( LOVE!!)






Then I also found this slouchy sweater!! It is that putty color again but lined with a chalk white layer so the contrast is really different. It feels like wearing a soft towel. I know, sounds weird but very cozy. The nubby texture makes it look and feel like an Eileen Fisher sweater but 1/3 the cost. I might not wear this with the jeans I have on but you get the idea.
This has a very boho look and when the weather gets warmer I start to go in that direction.

This just in! Burberry espadrilles!



I just received my Burberry leather tie espadrilles! they are the loveliest shade
soft buttery grey. Sorry for the low quality pictures. It does not show the soft grey color
well. I could only get them in a size 7.5 and they fit but a 8 would fit better. So I may
have to take them back. If I spend 400.00 on a pair of shoes I want them to be perfect!!!

enough to buy them! Well when I arrive they had just put them on sale for 115.00!!

Why oh Why embarrass your self?



I decided to start a blog because I have enjoyed reading other fashion related blogs and it looked like fun to start my own. I get such inspiration from other people and how they put things from their own closets together, I thought "I could do that!" Although this feels soo self-centered and totally superficial to write all about me and what i like to wear and do. It's soo wrong but feels soo right!


I am a stay-at- home mom and I guess I need something to do that is not child or cleaning related. So here goes nothing. Besides no one is going to read this anyway!


Ok I love fashion and clothes. I read almost all the fashion mags and even the Europe versions. I am a total dork and have no idea if I have good style but I know what I like and I know what I enjoy reading about in other blogs. This blog has a good chance of sucking but who cares right! I've seen worse blogs out there and I will probably get board of this soon anyway.


Right now I am a rep. for Silpada sterling silver jewelry and you will be seeing a lot of this great stuff on me. It is really great jewelery and I love to mix it with all of my other jewelery.


I worked for Nordstroms for many years and I know a well made product.


I am currently obsessed with J crew and can't wait for the spring line to come out. No, really, I literally peed my pants when I saw the spring preview. Sequins and camo and diamonds ,Oh My!


Here are some picks from the last year to get started with. I made my husband take pics of my outfits on our travels. I know, total Dork!
