Preppy Monday
I don’t go preppy that often so when I do, I definitely need to be in the mood. And it may be happening more and more these days after getting this gorgeous Marc by Marc Jacobs bag. The style is called the “Preppy Colorblock Bag” and it has all the perfect purse elements in my opinion – it’s super roomy, has an optional cross body strap, and the neutral colors make it easy to match. And since I’m a big fan…

Date with Lace
If you’re familiar with Joie, then you know that they make amazing silk blouses and lace designs. The delicacy and vintage appeal of their lace is hard to resist. And lace just makes me feel super feminine and lady like (this is also very challenging for me since I am also not very ladylike). And in honor of Valentine’s Day this week and the many dates that people will go on, I thought this lace dress would be great for…

Intwined with Tweed
Mustaches and bow ties seem to be the big “hipster” thing these days. I’m not sure where this fad came from, but that doesn’t mean I can’t appreciate a good bow tie, especially one that you can wear as a necklace! And as one of the biggest manufactured “date nights” approaches this week, I thought it would appropriate to post a few date worthy outfits. With just a simple piece like this bow tie necklace (by Intwined Bows) and some simple red pumps,…

Grunge Stripes
Olive green and black is generally a combo that I don’t find very appealing. But this sweater was different – also, I am such a sucker for striped clothing. Olive green itself is already more of a “moody” color, definitely not a pick me up. And pairing that with black just makes it even darker! But maybe that’s why I liked this sweater so much – the dark, moody colors, stripes, and gothic lace tights, this outfit summons my darker…

Winter Mints
There are some colors that are perfectly suited for certain seasons – red and green for the holidays, pastels for the spring, or autumn colors for the fall. But lately, my opinion of only wearing pastels in the spring/summer has changed. Mint green seems to be one of those colors that works well all year round, especially when paired with something like charcoal grey shorts. It adds just enough color to what could be a drab and typical cold…

The Many Faces of Dogs
I know there is a never ending debate of cats versus dogs, but as an animal lover, I choose both. Remember this truck driving cat shirt that I wore in one of my previous posts? Well, between these two shirts designed by Ritsuko Hirai, I couldn’t decide which one I liked better. For some reason a dog wouldn’t look right behind the wheel of a car, but a shirt with tons of smiling dog faces? That seems way more…
