This summer I’m all about finding new ways to wear items in my wardrobe that don’t get much use, and the outfit featured in this month’s “Dress Form Outfit” post is a small step out of my comfort zone. I don’t usually wear shorts {of any length or style} out in public, mainly because I don’t always use my tanning towels or my sunless tanning lotions and my legs are whiter than snow. The other thing is, I’m not a big fan of my arms so I try to keep them covered. With that said, I really like this outfit […]
12 Summer Must-Haves for July
Every summer comes and goes in a blaze of glory, and if you’re like me, your weekends are jam-packed with indoor and outdoor activities. There’s only one way to be ready for the summer, and that’s to make sure that you have some of this summer’s must-have items at the ready Denim shorts. Denim shorts are a summer staple. Whether you buy a pair of denim shorts or if you sacrifice a pair of jeans to DIY a pair of distressed denim shorts, this summer must-have never goes out of style. Styles range from short {as in “cheeky” short} to […]
Steal Her Style: Kelly Ripa
Kelly Ripa may have stylists dressing her for her morning show, “Live with Kelly and Ryan”, but her street style is simple and easy to replicate. This month’s “Steal her Style” takes on Kelly’s casual summer style by pairing a simple white tank with a cargo skirt and sandals. If you’re looking for a casual outfit to wear this summer, then try this look on for size. Kelly is wearing is the Altuzarra Kent skirt {Barney’s}, but unfortunately, it is out of stock. Here are some similar styles, and some have limited sizes: Tencel Linen Cargo Skirt {Orvis, $32.50} Lauren […]
Man of Style: Dwayne Johnson
Some people may question why I named Dwayne Johnson as this month’s “Man of Style”, but have you seen him in HBO’s “Ballers”? Just like his character Spencer Strasmore, Dwayne Johnson has some serious style! Men and women alike knew that when they heard the phrase — “Do you smell what The Rock is cookin’?” — that there were two things you could count on: (1) you knew that “The People’s Champion” was somewhere near the “wrastlin’ ring”, and (2) you knew that he was about “lay a smackdown” on somebody’s candy ass. But who knew that Dwayne Johnson would […]
Dress Form Outfit: Electric Blues
It’s that time again, where I feature a dress form outfit. I’m so ready for Summer that I’m already planning several outfits (trying them out on my dress form first) to wear on date nights with my hubs. If you took a look in my closet, you’d see mostly black and gray, but a few years ago I decided to step out of my comfort zone and get a pair of electric blue jeans. I have featured these jeans on my dress form before, and every time I wear them, I feel sassy. I bought this Juicy Couture sleeveless top […]
