Dark Ages (See Jane Wear)

Zara jacket + boots + scarf, Madewell jeggings, Forever 21 sweater, Banana Republic necklace, Chloe bag It’s the end of March, so I can’t believe that I’m wearing all black and loads of layers.  Alas, temperatures have plummeted and I have no choice but to bundle up, yet again.  I don’t necessarily need to be […]

Street Smart (See Jane Wear)

                                                               H&M sweater, UO striped top, J Brand jeans, Bakers shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses I used to tell my family growing up that I was “street smart.”  I honestly thought of myself that way and I’m guessing it was my wild imagination.  In reality, I was raised on the mean streets of rural Ohio.  My […]

Day Off (See Jane Wear)

J Brand jeans, Steven Alan top (via GILT, sign up here), Burberry trench, Bakers shoes, Rebecca Minkoff bag As much as I wanted to loaf on the couch yesterday, I went out for a bit in order to distract myself from the dreaded ‘Sunday Blues.’  It’s no surprise that a little fresh air and walking […]

The Bright Stuff (See Jane Color)

If anyone’s guilty of overdoing one color palette, it’s me.  In winter, I’m all about blacks and greys; during spring, I’m obsess with tans, light pinks, and camel palettes.  I like a pop of color once in a while, but my short-term plan is to start incorporating brights into my wardrobe.  I’m truly inspired by […]

Nude Accents (See Jane Want)

Every spring there are a few trends that stand out.  This year, color blocking is huge, along with all things 70s.  One trend that reappears every spring are nude palettes.  They’re fresh, clean, and act as an indicator (to me, at least) that spring is finally around the corner.  It’s one trend I don’t think […]

Tastes Like Spring (See Jane Cook)

While I love cold-weather eats and all types of comfort food, sometimes the heaviness gets me down and I end up craving something light.  I wanted a dish with a lot of color and shrimp–it was the perfect opportunity to have this Asparagus Shrimp Pasta. I incorporated a few more veggies to get in my […]

J. Crew Spring ’11 (See Jane Yearn)

Last fall (mere months ago), everyone was swooning over Spring 2011 collections, completely high off of Fashion Week.  Sure, it’s fun to see what you might be wearing next spring, but ultimately, I have a hard time getting excited for clothing that’s nearly half a year away from being wearable.  While some were concentrating on […]
