Which means it’s time to update our wardrobes and start adding in pieces that will help us transition from the hot summer days to cool fall nights. Michelle and I may live on opposite sides of the country but we still share the love of one of our favorite stores, South Moon Under. Let’s just say that I am super lucky to live only a mile away from South Moon Under. It’s my go to spot when I need an outfit for an event, where I shop when I need to update my wardrobe each season and where I go to pick up gifts for friend’s birthdays. They always have what I’m looking for and many things I never knew I needed. Since I live in Virginia and work in Georgetown, I thought I would share with you all a sneak peak into my work day wearing my outfits that I styled from my favorite local shop, South Moon Under.  Hope you all enjoy!                Wearing: Jacket (X by Gottex via Southmoon Under c/0), Bra Top (Alala c/o)), Leggings (Alala c/o), Sunglasses (Quay), Sneakers (Nike).   Whether […]

Even though the weather has warmed up, it doesn’t mean you have to pack away all of your most loved leather pieces! I am a huge fan of styling leather and I try to incorporate it into my wardrobe, regardless of the season. Style your favorite pair of leather leggings with a muscle tee or a soft plaid top (like the Rails shirt I am wearing in these photos, so worth the investment!)  and a pair of flat or heeled sandals and you have an edgy springtime look. When wearing a leather bottom, I usually carry my denim jacket so that I have something to throw on when it cools down at night. These J.Mendel leather pants have been a favorite of mine since I found them on sale at Ella Rue last fall and I haven’t been able to take them off since! I also have a super thin buttery-leather jacket from Vince that I wear religiously in the spring as […]

Donning a pair of glasses were literally teenage me’s worse nightmare. Oh how times have changed, now kids wear spectacles with faux frames! So, if over half of us ladies are required to wear some type of vision correction, then we better look good while doing so. We were introduced to SelectSpecs and were given the opportunity to try out a pair ourselves, and we were pleasantly surprised. Despite a large selection of designers, frames and styles to choose from the selection process was easy. Finding high quality prescription eyewear that looks great but doesn’t break the piggy bank can be quite difficult. Thanks to SelectSpecs large selection we can select multiple pieces that will give us the flexibility to match our looks/outfits. I fell in love with the Savannah style. It’s versatile with a fun, playful nerdy edge to it. They’re essentially an accessory to your outfit rather than a day to day necessity. If you happen to be a part of that above percentile and are looking for an update in your eyewear closet, then we encourage you to try out SelectSpecs. Add a few more fun, fashionable pieces to your selection […]

They have it all, from designer pieces to new and up and coming vendors. Whether you are shopping for a cocktail of formal event or just looking to chill at home with some comfy, cool sweats. Intermix has that and everything in between. They help create and perfect the ultimate closet. I was so excited when Intermix asked me to style my favorite fall coat. I have had my eyes on this Alexander McQueen coat for months and couldn’t wait to pair it back to shades of grey. This coat has the perfect fit and flare look and makes me feel like a million bucks. Wearing all Intermix- Sweater: Rag and Bone; Denim: Frame; Pumps: Sergio Rossi; Bag: Stella McCartney; Coat: Alexander McQueen Photo Cred thanks to the talented Julien Check out Intermix online and shop their gift guide selection for any fashionista this season and help create a girls dream of the ultimate closet. xo Michelle
