Expat Thanksgiving

Holiday's away from home by yourself can be lonely. Thankfully I got to enjoy all the fun of Thanksgiving with my family, but without any of the calories!

Militar-SHE

I had a little shopping spree at Target to pick up some need-for-London items, and that haul 4 of the items of clothing the same shade of green.

The cashier even pointed out, "you must like this color" to which I responded, "yes, it brings out my eyes."

These pants were one of them.

Beached Blue

I'm heading to the beach soon for our annual beach trip and this dress will certainly be in my overpacked suitcase.

It's perfect for strolling down the beach, around the resort, or down the streets of Charleston.

Transitional Hybrid

Before the weather became stupid hot, there was a very small window consisting of beautiful blue skies and perfect temperatures. 

I love that time of year, mostly for the temperatures, but mainly because the options of what to wear encompasses my entire wardrobe. Tank tops and pants, shorts and long sleeves, boots or sandals, and layers.

Trouser Trooping

I have no clue who the other people are under the masks!
Since the Trooping of the Colour is taking place in London this weekend, I thought I'd take a stroll down memory lane and revisit one of my most memorable (and slightly questionable) looks, which took place at the 2012 Trooping of the Colour.

But first a little background:

New Year's Re-SEW-loution: May

This month's project has certainly been an interesting one.

This seemingly simple-to-make dress hit so many road bumps along the way, I'm surprised I still have my sanity. But unforeseen moments and soul crushing roadblocks make for good video.

Speaking of, the video is longer than usual because so. many. things. happened while making this dress, and luckily, they were all caught on camera!

Redded Bliss

My family welcomed a new member to our clan this April when my brother got married!

As I've previously mentioned, special occasions are cause for a new outfit, and being sister-of-the-groom is a pretty darn good excuse!

But that doesn't mean it's easy!

Maxi-mizing

Maxi skirts.

The fancy yoga pant.

We all have them.

We all wear them.

Year round.

Royally Speaking

If you happen to live under a rock and haven't heard, the royal baby has arrived and

it's a girl!

Her name has yet to be released but the world is ecstatic!

Tackonista



It's not always easy being a fashionista.

We have our less than fabulous moments but often it's because we're making the rare decision to choose comfort in some or fashion.

For me, those days are either when I'm home with plans for the day (I absolutely hate wasting a cute outfit on a day on the couch) or when I'm on set in a dress.

Summer Shimmer

Ah, the most wonderful time of the year has finally arrived. 

It's not quite warm enough to wear shorts and a tank top all day, but balancing one or the other with a winter garment (like pants or long sleeve shirt) and you're golden.

Something Blue

In just a couple of days my brother will be a married man. 




Hard to believe he found someone willing to put up with him! Ha! 

With weddings come showers. With showers come outings needing cute outfits.

Cut Rate Chic

Holy moly I am loving this weather.

I'm currently sitting outside, resting my feet on our new fire pit enjoying the buzz of the bugs (I use the term "enjoying" loosely. As long as they don't land/crawl on me they're OK) and watching Bogart frolic in the grass and warm his belly in the sunshine.

The skies are blue.

The weather is warm enough to wear light layers but cool enough to not sweat the instant you start thinking about venturing outside.

Skirting into Spring

It's Friday and it's the first day of Spring!

Though depending on where you live it might say otherwise outside...

But here in Georgia we've been fortunate to have some beautiful weather here the past week or so (minus the rain we've had yesterday and today).

Skies out, thighs out, y'all!

Wanderlost

I embarked on quite an adventure earlier this week.

Said adventure included walking over 5 miles throughout the city but it was well worth it.

I'm not one to try to brag on myself and I usually wouldn't share this until the contest has ended (if even at all) but I'm so proud of the work I did I want to share.

Why, you may ask? Well, just watch this...

Shoesday Tuesday: Split Wedge Sandals

It's no secret that my Achilles' heel is shoes.

and these shoes rendered me immobile at first sight.

So I bought myself a birthday gift.

Another Page in the Blog

I apologize for my lack of blogging as of late. I've been in a frozen funk for the past week. 

What better way to get out of a funk than with something you love? 

And who doesn't love weddings!

Wear My Heart on My Sleeve

Valentine's Day. 

You either love it or hate it.

And while my Valentine was Bogart and I spent the day with my parents, I didn't hate it.

Partly because I loved my outfit.

Sheer Sparkle

I might have mentioned it before but I love things that sparkle.

Diamonds
Shoes
Eyeshadow

doesn't matter to me.

If it sparkles there's a good chance I'd buy it.

Set Your Stripes

Everyone has those days when they don't want to wear pants.

It was a gorgeous day outside! 
And for us lucky ladies, we have maxi-skirts.

They not only tick the 'no pants' box, but the 'appropriate to wear in public' box as well.
