Summer is the season for shoes. Your toenails are painted, it’s warm, you might be traveling, and life is a slower pace. However, the wrong shoes can ruin your day or night. With the heat (if you live in a sweltering environment like I do), the walking, and wanting to look put together, you need the right shoe on your …
You don’t need to buy an entirely new wardrobe every spring. In fact, it is said that true style comes from choosing what you already own, and I tend to agree with that. Figuring out what to wear this spring is really about working with what’s in your closet, adding a few fresh pieces, and putting together outfits that feel easy, …
Finding clothes as a petite woman shouldn’t be this difficult, but somehow, it still is if you don’t know where to look. I’m constantly in search of pieces that actually fit properly (not just shorter versions of regular sizing), and over time I’ve found a handful of brands that consistently work for me. I don’t rely only on petite sections …
Attending festivals in New Orleans is something that many people come to the city to enjoy. For some of us, it’s in our genetic makeup. Whether it’s a food festival, a music festival, or a holiday festival, festivals in New Orleans are enjoyed by the thousands. While I wouldn’t call myself an avid fester anymore (I am a lot pickier …
New Orleans, my hometown. Fashion, one of my favorite topics. I’m so excited to combine the two in this blog for you and help you dress in ways that allow you to enjoy New Orleans the most. Growing up here, I never realized what a destination it was. The way we are raised here is very unique to how other …
Fall, or autumn, is my favorite time of year. Unlike many, I abhor daylight saving time and look forward to the dark coming earlier and getting into bed earlier. Although I live in a warm, humid climate, my sweater collection could rival those who live in, say, Minnesota. Perhaps I’m willing cold weather to my life by having all of …
For years I have purchased various winter coat brands even though I live in a near-tropical climate. There is something about winter and being outside with a sufficient coat that excites me, so I continue to buy coats. I’ve got anything from leather jackets to serious cold-weather coats hanging in my closet. In fact, I have an entire closet dedicated …
I go to Paris a couple of times or more per year, and I have seen what to wear in Paris and how locals dress evolve over the years. A decade ago, French fashion was much more monochromatic – black and neutral colors mostly, which is easy to pack. While you can still wear mostly black and no one will …
Winter in Europe is one of my favorite times of the year. I don’t live in a wintry climate, so each year I travel to a place that has a true winter, and it’s usually to Europe to experience the European Christmas markets. I’ve written a blog dedicated to what to wear to the markets, and I thought a boot-specific …
People from all over the world flock to the European Christmas markets. You hear many different languages spoken while you’re walking around with stars in your eyes, wondering how you waited so long to go. When I decided to sign up for the group tour headed to Europe for a Christmas market trip, I wondered what I was going to …
