This week on “shop your closet” I’m featuring a thin, black, cashmere, crew neck sweater (it’s from Talbots on sale!). It’s a true workhorse of my wardrobe and slips into an outfit at least once a week. I’m a longtime cashmere fan and as soon as I could afford it, I started introducing it into […]
About 10 years ago, Eric bought me a LouisVuitton Neverfull bag in the Damier print; it was my go-to work back and I carried it constantly. I worked in finance and traveled a lot so I wore a lot of neutrals that were appropriate for a strict business casual dress code, but on travel days […]
I’m a big shopper–always have been. I’ve loved shopping for clothes for as long as I can remember. My mom was more of a discount shopper so I would carefully pick through the sale racks at her favorite department store or the local TJ Maxx.

My top items from 2018 are ones that I purchased this year (and some even in 2017) that are STILL available. They’re top items because I constantly wear them (or re-buy in the case of the one essential oil I use). I deem these items classics and I have no doubt that they will continue […]

First Real Outfit Recap of the year! If I’m being honest, I’m still in a holiday fog over here. So, instead of me waxing poetic, here’s a few snippets of what I wore during the holidays. And since I’m in that fog, I want to share some links from around the world wide web. No […]
I have been LIVING in this suede combat boots. They’re shearling lined, extremely comfortable, and slightly heavy–perfect for the cold streets of Chicago (they’re also the same brand of my favorite sock booties from last year, worn here). Perhaps subconsciously, I also grab this camel coat when I wear them; maybe it’s the tonality, or […]
Post-Christmas sales are always my favorite–probably because it’s all the good winter stuff on sale and we still have three solid months of winter left! The Nordstrom Half-Yearly Sale is the cream of the crop because they really mark it down but you need to shop early because it goes quickly. It’s a great […]
