Boots are hot this season. Pulled over skinny jeans, matched with wool and denim skirts, paired with gauchos, it seems that a pair of tall boots is a necessity for any woman’s wardrobe. What do you do when your calves aren’t slim? A childhood of playing soccer, a more zaftig figure than most models, a… Continue Reading Tall Boots for Wide Calves
Bright purple synthetic v-neck tunic from C. Brule. I don’t like it. I am returning it to Nordstrom. Under it I have a black synthetic camisole from Victoria’s Secret. Denim trousers from Gap, black city boots from Aldo, silver cuff bracelet, shades of purple beaded necklace from Express. Hair is a mess, but I didn’t… Continue Reading Thursday
So I cut off my Paul & Joe kimono dress from Target. I have been considering it for a while. I wear it a lot, it’s not the highest quality and it’s beginning to look a bit worse for wear as a dress. A tad faded, a tad pilled, a tad misshapen. And well, I… Continue Reading Wednesday

Cherry ribbed crewneck sweater from Chico’s, black triacetate suiting trousers from Ann Taylor Loft, black city boots from Aldo, silver hoops and cuff bracelet. Hair is second day, a bit blown… Continue Reading Monday
Gray-blue Susan Tedeschi tour tee shirt, khaki twill jacket from Target, Gap Straight Bootcut jeans, teal suede wedges from Seychelles. Hair is second day, I got up late this morning and just hit the bedhead pieces with a straightening iron. These pictures were taken after being at work for 4 hours, when I got to… Continue Reading Friday: Nov 10, 2006
So I got home, and had a quick salad before I headed to the city for the Andre Leon Talley presentation. And I spilled all over my black sweater and pants and was frantic. Hated my hair, outfit ruined, and just having an all-over grumpy day. I went upstairs and straightened my hair really quick,… Continue Reading Thursday Night
Last night I went to the Corcoran in Washington DC to see Andre Leon Talley give a lecture on his opinions of the Spring 2007 lines and to have a Q&A. For those who have never heard of this man before, Talley is the Editor at Large for Vogue. He has been there since 1983,… Continue Reading A Night With Andre Leon Talley
