It’s stillll summer, despite all the new, flanneled, quilted, and leathered fall lines popping up everywhere. I admit, I get pretty excited about wearing fall clothes; there are so many layers and options to play with, and I can practically smell the thin, cold air mixed with crunchy leaves! But a huge part of me
I am feeling purple hues like you read about, lately! I love the whimsy of lilac, anchored with a deep, serious bordeaux – especially in the summer, since it’s kind of unexpected. I also like playing matchmaker with pieces in my closet that have never met. It’s fun to be a little irreverent with ladylike
Aaaand we’re back to the good ol’ standby pencil skirt! Boy, does that girl have your back (literally). The one I’m wearing is stretchy, and the playful print keeps it fresh and fun in-and-out of the office. I kept my office look on the casual side (cuz that’s how I usually roll), and paired it
Our sehr schön, German partner blogger, Roya of Blue Jeans White Shirt, suggested a “Deep Blue Sea” theme for this month’s Skip! It could be nautical-inspired, beachy, or just something deep blue…. While I didn’t go for anything very nautical or beachy, I immediately knew I wanted to shoot near the deepest blue hue I’ve
I love mixing prints and playing with color every now and then (can you tell?)! You know what I also love? This yellow sweatshirt skirt from H&M.

Can you feel the warm sunshine, cool lake breeze, and smell the bbq? Ahhhh….. Oregon Wearing: Tank: INC. Skirt: BB Dakota (similar). Necklace: Diana
When I found out we were doing our ‘Give Back’ blog this week, I instantly made my way to the local fair trade shop in my city centre. The One World shop is a fair trade outlet in Hull, UK. One World is a member of the British Association of Fair Trade Shops and Suppliers
We enjoyed our “Give Back” series so much last month, that we decided we wanted to continue to feature posts like that more often! Last month, I chose to feature FEED Projects (you can read about the background story and mission behind FEED on my previous post, if you missed it), and have chosen to do
We’ve covered punch-up your work style, so why not try edging it up a bit? I decided to try this with three key pieces: skirt, top, and shoes (but you could certainly opt to try just one!). I love the wrap skirt! It has a similar look to your classic pencil, but packs a little
Rainy season is upon us, which begs the question: how does a self-respecting dude stay dry in the elements without looking elementary? It’s all in the top-coat, my friend. North Face and Patagonia make excellent gear for the sporty guy that works at the local climbing gym, but most post-college men at least have to
