Let’s be real… sometimes shopping stresses me out (especially on days I ate too much Chinese food or indulged in chocolate cake). The day I bought this pink dress, I had been desperately searching for an outfit to wear to an upcoming event but hated the way everything looked on my body. The dresses I tried hugged my curves the wrong way […]
I’m so excited to share a few photos from my collaboration with Elizabeth Carrie Photography today. Chase and I booked Elizabeth as our wedding photographer after meeting her and obsessing over her creative work a few months ago, and then I asked Elizabeth to shoot new photos of me for my site. Working with Elizabeth is great because she […]
Italy is famous for its leather. I’m famous for finding any reason to buy a new handbag. So now, here we are. One of my favorite parts about this two-toned Furla tote is its sides can fold inward, transforming it into a smaller day bag. That, plus I usually gravitate toward black bags when I’m looking to invest, so […]
My style is undoubtedly feminine, so much so that sometimes I even have a hard time adding edge to my outfits — at least I did until I purchased this burgundy faux-leather jacket. Mixing leather and lace is the perfect way to add spunk to my frilly dresses, and this surprisingly versatile jacket has already become one of […]
It’s my first week studying at Lorenzo de’ Medici in Florence and so far I’m really happy with my classes and am excited to learn more about Italian fashion and culture. My history of Italian fashion professor described Italian style as “artless elegance,” and I love that concept of dressing chic without looking like you tried. Pairing neutrals is a […]
Now that I am living in Italy, I’m trying my hardest to talk the talk and walk the walk — easier said than done since I didn’t know any Italian (besides “Ciao!”) before moving here. Kate and I have been brushing up on some key phrases from our Italian pocketbook and have decided to master at least one each day. “Non […]
My style is very feminine and for me, keeping it classic is key. A black and white striped shirt is always one of my go-tos (no matter the occasion), and so is pretty gold jewelry. Speaking of which, don’t forget the Armed & Readi Instagram sale launches at noon and will go one until 2:00 p.m. EST. […]
Nothing pulls together an outfit and makes me feel armed and readi for the day like accessories do. My friend Mary Kate, of Trend Takeover, introduced me to Armed & Readi last year and its irresistible jewelry collections had me at “hello.” Today, I’m excited to give you this sneak peek of an upcoming Armed & Readi Instagram […]
Click on the “+” to shop the product. It’s coming down to the wire, and I can’t believe I’m actually packing for Europe — an entire semester in Italy. Fitting a semester’s worth of clothes into two bags is proving to be a challenge (as I expected), and I find myself questioning what items should make the […]
Something navy: I love T-shirt dresses — plain and simple. They’re comfy, trendy and easy to style many different ways (I swear I wear this navy one once a week). While I admit I’m often drawn to A-line silhouettes that define my waist, I also stock up on loose-fitting dresses that drape over my curves in a […]
