May Daily Style

May Daily Style

The first few weeks of May are in the books, and let me tell you, it’s been a doozy.

So here’s what I wore, some buying ideas, and some tips for dressing in transitional weather.

Spring Break Style

Spring Break Style

Happy Spring! Finally!! Yippee!! Our first signal of spring is when the redbud trees start blooming, followed by the pear trees and bright yellow jonquils. Their blooms are a sweet signal that the long, dreary, wet winter might finally be in our rear view window, and pretty, sunshiny days are ahead.

Happy Fall y’all! (not really, it’s August in Louisiana so….) Anyway, a girl can dream, can’t she? I just love that epic Fall issue of Vogue that comes out each year. I’m pretty certain that 98 percent of that impressive issue is ads and fragrance inserts! Even though I can’t afford much of anything in Vogue, I always get inspiration from the ideas within the pages. Think of it as a paper “mood board” for your closet. I’ve been doing a little research into the fashion trends for Fall 2017, and how I can utilize these new Fall fashion trends in my workwear. I’m excited to share what I’ve found with you!  Continue reading “Fall Workwear Refresh”

Day Two of my Pink Work Wear series.  Or as I like to call it “How to Wear Pink to the Office and NOT look like Cinderella”. Have I mentioned that I love pink? Actually, if you were to ask me what my favorite color is, I’d probably tell you “all of them”, but pink holds a special, girly place in my crazy old heart.  Continue reading “About My Pink(ish) Top”
