Florals are a big Spring trend – and on this cold week in February the thought of flowers is surely a welcome one. There are a million ways to incorporate florals into your wardrobe without having to brave skinny floral jeans — think: easy floral dresses, cute floral flats, floral blouses and blazers — and yes, even some floral pants, however, I would look for a straight leg pant versus a skinny denim (unless you love some skinny floral jeans – go for it!). What I love about

Whether you have plans for a hot date, or plan to sit on the couch with Ben & Jerry’s and a movie on Valentine’s Day, I have some options for both! My husband and I don’t typically make a big deal out of Valentine’s Day, so I will most likely be having a cozy dinner at home. But, my favorite people to dress in red hearts on V-Day? My kids! The outfits are just too cute to resist, so I thought I’d find you some sales on kids Valentine’s’ day clothes too! I can’t even take that

Yay! It’s time for another Splash of Color– our Countdown to Spring! For those just popping in, I am doing a 10 week post series about adding color to your wardrobe. We have already talked about adding RED and BLUSH PINK to your wardrobe, today let’s talk about my favorite color: PURPLE! One amazing thing about purple — it looks good on everyone! Especially if you’re wearing a jewel tone purple, you can’t go wrong. There are just so many shades of purple – from lavender to pl

When I was out at an event this past weekend chatting it up with my girlfriends, they were telling me a very helpful thing would be for me to take a trend and make it mom-friendly. So today we start with boyfriend jeans. And trust me, they will grow to be your best friend (if they aren’t already). Why are you going to love them? Sooooooo comfortable, and they look good on most figures. AND, boyfriend jeans look great paired with everything from a basic white T-shirt to a blaz

Who’s up for a “Spring Cleaning” in the middle of winter? I recently was asked by another blogger to share my closet, favorite outfits, my personal style, etc with her readers (more on that later). I am very excited, however, I opened my closet, looked at the mess, and thought, uh oh. My closet is exploding, I can’t find anything, and I don’t wear half of it. I have no idea what I have, what I need, etc. So I have decided to suck it up and SORT. Here are some tips I thought

How NOT to wear your jeans and tall boots I have had a few emails recently with women telling me it just doesn’t seem to look right when they wear their tall boots with jeans – and they’re not sure why. What are they doing wrong? Now, since I didn’t see the outfits in question (although, please feel free to send me any outfit pics with your questions!) — I’m going to guess what was happening. You’re thinking, “these are the most fitted pair of jeans I have — so those are the

I have a new winter obsession: fingerless gloves — and arm warmers. Genius. Maybe some of you have already discovered these – but if you haven’t — they are a life saver! At this point, our phones and even our cars are touch screen — my hands are freezing in the morning because it’s too much of a pain for me to be constantly taking gloves on and off. So I just don’t wear any. Even when I go running, I’m taking my hands in and out of my glove to change the song. Not now! And th

Can you believe Christmas is 2 weeks away?! I have no idea how that happened, but I better get to work! For me, the hardest people to buy for are my parents and my in-laws. They don’t want anything, they don’t really need anything. I can’t tell you how many framed family photos they’ve gotten, poor things. Well, not this year! I am determined to get my parents and in-laws the best Christmas gifts ever. And today we start with moms! I have compiled some amazing gift ideas for

Right now I feel like I want to buy every sparkly, sequin-y, embellished, top, skirt, dress . . . you get the picture. It just puts me in the holiday spirit to shop for holiday attire! And, honestly, I don’t even have anywhere to go! But that’s not stopping me. Today I’m wearing this AMAZING sequin top — and although it would be perfect for a holiday party, like I did with these leather pants, a sequin top can also be worn in a more casual way. I’ve paired it with a pair of d
