    In the Name of Fashion

    Today’s look takes me back to my visit to Japan in winter 2010. Shopping there was insanely crowded and I quickly noticed that girls there easily sacrificed warmth in the name of fashion.  Even though I wore layers upon layers under my extremely puffy down North Face jacket, I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw girls wearing floral mini skirts, tights, some faux leather boots, and fur hooded parkas, all in 30-40 degree weather. Even though I loved the look,…

    The Best Boyfriend [Sweater] in the World

    I’ve been in a pretty casual wearing mood lately, which might have to do with the cold weather or being sick for two weeks. Either way, oversized sweaters seem to be my go-to piece these days. Paired with skinny jeans, a skirt, or even leggings, these “boyfriend” sweaters make a great comfortable and loose piece that you can throw on over virtually anything. Let’s just hope this “boyfriend” is a good one!

    California Girl

    It may already be mid-November and on the verge of winter, but living in California, it’s just starting to feel like fall. And there’s nothing like a good sweater to kick off the drop in temperature. I’ve never been a fan of thick chunky sweaters and love that this one has a so cal surfer look and can be worn year round. This one may be a bit to “holey” to keep you truly warm in most places during the…

    Sweatshirt Chic

    Sweatshirts to me have always been something super casual, something you wear when you’re at home, sick, or rushing to class. But these days, it’s so much more than that. Colored, patterned, or dressed up with a statement necklace, it can be a fun and versatile piece. This lace sweatshirt definitely brings new meaning to “casual Fridays”! Happy Friday,everyone!

    Ahead of Time in Her Universe

    The rise of geeky girl clothing has been amazing over the past ten years. What was once impossible to find your favorite TV show, movie, or video game on a girl sized shirt is now so easily available. Ashlie Eckstein saw potential in geeky girl clothing early on and spawned Her Universe, a sci-fi focused clothing brand for women. I remember my first Her Universe purchase clearly at SDCC many years ago. A cool looking Star Wars hoodie in my…

    Friday Florals

    There’s nothing like a cute floral skirt to brighten up a gloomy day. The past couple days has been super foggy, cold, and well, a lot like fall weather I guess. Even though there has been an extreme lack of sun, wearing this fun floral printed skirt took my mind off of that. I especially like this one because it has a layer underneath that adds a little “poof” – a petticoat if you will. Plus the florals on black…
