Fill Your Closet Layer by Layer - 1. Monday, November 5

One Sweater 4 Ways

One of the most important rules when adding to your wardrobe is to look for "statement" pieces to build around. I know I always talk about finding the "perfect jacket," but this rule also applies to almost everything in your closet. Today we are talking Cardigans. Find a cardigan with length, something that covers your butt and brings versatility for your bottom options, like leggings, dresses, and skirts. Look for fun detailing and multi color, so you can play off of those colors when styling. I loved the colors in this Ralph Lauren draped cardigan sold on Stylebop. Use the colors and pair it up, going casual to dressy depending on your mood!

Must Have Christmas - Pretty Lettering Friday, November 2


After years of custom work, sleepless nights, working 2 jobs plus having a baby the beautiful culmination of dreams and gifts have finally been released to the world!  Please welcome Lindsay Letters Shop a place of pretty lettering and visual stimulation... a wonderland of prints and stamps and stationary and now Christmas Cards that are all marked with the uniquely unique penmanship of Lindsay Sherbondy.  A friend to say the least, and as one of her biggest cheerleaders it has been a journey of true grit, dedication and a little "crazy" to produce a magical shop for us all to enjoy! 

I just had to stop in to her little "haven" to bring some goodies and do a little squealing and took a few pics of her new shop, which she shares with an super cool letterpress company, Locust Street Press and adorably enough it is actually on Locust Street. 

You simply must check out Lindsay's new online shop and all of her fantastical, whimsical Gilded Greetings , prints, stamps and canvases. Perfectly Pretty Christmas gifts. 




Black Dress Tuesday, October 30

Little Black Dress
This weekend I was styling a friend for a wedding with these requirements.  "Can't buy anything new!" Of course we all get that and what that really means is we just have to be a little more creative. I had her grab any black dresses in her closet, black tights and a solid black heel or bootie. Keeping with one color, is seamless, looks expensive and allows you to bring focus to other areas with a necklace, lips or scarf. And it's a pretty good bet we all have at least 1 black dress, a pair of tights and a black pump.


Everything on this style board is under $50 so if you need to get a black dress, here are some great suggestions. You could also throw on a black shawl with this brooch as a statement piece!  Heirbloom is launching it's winter collection on "Black Friday" this year, with new fab accessories.
