Jorts Jivin'

Jorts are at the end of a lot of jokes but all jokes aside, I am digging this version of jean shorts. This look is honestly classy. The key with jorts is to not let them be too tight. Too often, women and girls think that clothing needs to be super tight to look good. No thank you, ladies. If the jorts I wore above were tight, this outfit would be foul. Paired with an boyfriend-style blazer and some sexy heels...voila! Jorts done right. Give it a go this spring!

Blazer Bliss

I know I don't have to tell you twice...time to slip into all of your favorite blazers and embrace the cooling weather. Pair your blazer with jeans and a top or even a frilly skirt and blouse - it's truly a convertible piece.

Dinner Party Do


What is a gal to wear to a friend's dinner party? It sure seemed like the perfect time to bust out these new snakeskin shorts from H&M ($12.95). I went on a rampage in my closet, trying on five different tops with these shorts but ultimately opted for this t-shirt (H&M - $7) and this blazer (Kardashian Kollection). I wore my silver scalloped necklace (Judy's Antiques) and a top knot. For shoes, I tied in a little subtle snakeskin with these White House, Black Market wedges. It was a success!

Fuchsia Friday

Nothing more liberating than wearing jeans on Friday to work. There is also nothing more liberating than wearing a $100 blazer that you got for $12. This fuchsia blazer, from the Kardashian Kollection, was such a steal. Paired with this funky tee from H&M, I was able to spice up my dark skinnies. I topped off the outfit with 3 chunky silver bracelets and black wedge heels (got to sneak in the extra inches where I can!). Skinnies: Flying Monkey

Totally Tulle


After an (at the time) irrational tulle dress purchase back in college, I was bound and determined to find another time and place to sport this gem. So, I did what I always do. I wait until right before I am going to go to bed and I just stand inside my closet, looking around. This yellow blazer (H&M) just made sense. To keep it work appropriate, I didn't go for my tallest heels. Instead, I opted for these patent leather Franco Sarto dolls. To top it off, I did my fun bun. For accessories, I chose my hot pink ostrich clutch and my blinging studs. Ballerina or boss lady? Who said you have to pick one?

Skulls Can Be Sassy


While I may be quite the girly girl, I must admit...I love skulls. I don't know what it is about them...but I dig them. With that said, I couldn't pass up this black studded skull tank I found (TJ Maxx - $12.99). Lord knows I'll be over skulls by next year so no need to break the bank on the top. Paired with a blazer, mustard jeans and some wedge heels, I was able to wear this to work. Never mind that a coworker asked me if I was into biking (motorcycles) this week. Skull on, my darlings.

Blaze It Up


Lately, my fashion goal for myself has been to create outfits with pieces I'd not normally put together. I purchased this skirt at H&M and knew I'd be able to have a little fun with it. Mixed with a grey v-neck (Urban Outfitters) and a black boyfriend blazer (also Urban Outfitters), the outfit took a new feel. Topped off with fun gold jewelry, wavy hair and spiked smoking slippers, the look was finished. Hooked on blazers and skirts after today.

Party Meets Professional

Casual Fridays means different things to different people. Sometimes it means wearing the same blouse you'd typically wear with trousers or dress pants and trying a pair of jeans instead. For me, it's about wearing something I couldn't get away with on a Monday through Thursday. For instance, this amazing new Def Leppard t-shirt (obviously because my favorite song is "Pour Some Sugar on Me") with a blazer. Paired with black wedge heels, some fun spike earrings and some rocker hair waves. Find similar shirts at Target.

Black and Yellow, Black and Yellow

Wearing yellow just makes you feel like a little ball of sunshine. Wearing a fun colored blazer makes you feel so sassy. Yellow blazer? Mega. This blazer from H&M, is the perfect start into a beautiful Florida spring. I paired this new blazer with black high-waisted black pants, black platform heels and a black blouse. Rocking a chunky bangle and blingy earrings added a little splash of fun to the all black and yellow ensemble. Helloooooo spunk.

4 Ways to Wear a White Tee: Look 3

Time to take our white tees to the workplace, lovely ladies. If you know me, you know I am obsessed with what my girlfriends refer to as "granny floral". This blazer is fabulous. Paired with skinny black jeans, our staple white shirt and these studded pumps...just perfection. I'm picturing a middle part with Kardashian waves...but that's just me. Do your thing, girls.

Fashion Find of the Day

What a cute spin on the traditional blazer. This Floral Jacquard Tux Jacket, by Topshop, is navy with blast contrast...quite unexpected. Love. Love. Love.

Spice Up Your (Work) Life

Since I've been getting quite bored with my work wardrobe, I decided to start branching out (in my closet) a little. Yesterday I decided to go with a little dress number that I'd bought more for the night scene. With a blazer over it, it's work appropriate. I paired this outfit with some patent leather pumps, some costume jewelry, a low bun and that's what all she wrote.

Pretty in Pink

I'm just as into color blocking as the next gal, but I'm still a believer that there is something to be said for an outfit like this. All black with one pop of color is easy and works. Here, my friend Holly pairs a black top with black shorts, heels and earrings. She tops it off with a hot pink blazer. Perfect outfit for a summer night out on the town. Pink never goes out of style.
