I wanted to look [...]

Roadtrip Recap

November 8th, 2009 · No Comments · Real Style

You read what I planned to wear on my wardrobe, and here’s the recap. Thanks to some torrential downpours, insane allergies and a less-than-enthusiastic photographer husband, I didn’t get the best outfit shots. I really liked all the outfits I wore, so I’ll probably wear them again and will get more detail shots later. (Day [...]

Dress for Good

July 26th, 2009 · No Comments · Real Style

I felt like a happy housewife in this dress–probably because I was entertaining family and arranging flowers. I love the abstract orange pattern and the fitted bodice of this dress. It’s a bit snug, but it makes the ruched waist look perfect.
