Fall Trend: Leather

Posted on September 6, 2013 by caraadmin

Leather has proven to be a major trend when it comes to Fall fashion, and this Fall is no exception! We have seen it for the past few years, and are so glad it's sticking around - and this season we are seeing it mixed with knit fabric across all categories, which makes it so wearable! What we love about leather is the versatility of it (and you know we love our wardrobe to be versatile!). You ...

Transition Time: striped tee

Posted on August 30, 2013 by caraadmin

One of the most classic and versatile pieces you can have in your closet is a striped tee. They add a little interest to your outfit with the stripes, they are comfortable, and they are low maintenance - what else could you ask for?! The striped tee is also a great transition piece because it is seasonless - it can easily take your summery pieces into fall and your winter bottoms into spring. ...

Transition Time: the button down

Posted on August 23, 2013 by caraadmin

We're continuing with our series on transitioning into Fall, and today we're visiting the button down. It's no secret that the button down has made its way back into our wardrobes within the past year, as we visited it here and here, and have used it countless times in outfits we created for this blog. It's such a versatile piece! You can go with classic white, chambray, prints such as florals ...

skinny distressed denim

Posted on July 15, 2013 by caraadmin

I know, it's 90 degrees, but today we're talking about jeans. If you're not a shorts/skirts/dresses person and prefer to spend the summer covering your legs, this might be a perfect option for you. The basic skinny jean (that hopefully we ALL have in our closet by now) has taken a turn, and we're seeing them emerge washed, worn, and distressed. The strategically placed holes and whiskering that...

Posted on July 8, 2013 by caraadmin

Have you all been bombarded with emails announcing SALE! SALE! SALE!? Now that the 4th of July has come and gone, stores are clearing out their Spring/Summer pieces to get ready for Fall (we know, there are still several months of warm weather, but in the next few weeks the first shipment of Fall merchandise will hit the floors!) Taking advantage of these super summer sales can be overwhelmin...

Posted on June 24, 2013 by caraadmin

Hooray! It is officially summer! We've kicked off summer with a bang, and between vacations, swim meets, summer camps, tennis lessons, long afternoons at the pool, and spending every possible moment outside, we've had little time to blog. But don't worry, we're back and ready to inspire, and we even have a few new things planned for the upcoming months! *Here would be a good place to note: if ...

In honor of the first official week of swimsuit season, we're declaring this week to be BEACH WEEK, with posts dedicated to swim suits and accessories.

printed shorts

Posted on May 20, 2013 by caraadmin

If you're loving the printed bottoms trend (we visited it here), but aren't quite ready to invest in a full length pair of pants, you're in luck! The trend has more than spread into the shorts category. You can now pull off the trend without feeling overwhelmed by so much pattern on the bottom. Dress them up or down by changing out your shoes and accessories - they are a perfect and fun invest...

cropped pant

Posted on May 13, 2013 by caraadmin

We have many clients who are not big on wearing shorts. We get it. They're tough if you're not a fan of your legs. So then the question becomes, what do you wear all summer long that will keep you cool but still be comfortable and chic? It's not always realistic to wear skirts and dresses, but jeans can be so hot during the 90+ degree days (will we ever get there? This winter is lasting forev...
