My husband has diligently been working away for over 2 years, designing, creating and perfecting his own line of sunglasses which is finally up for sale. His brand, J.Martasand, specializes in producing quality acetate sunglasses that are handmade in the United States – which is a huge rarity within the eyewear industry. Of course I’m a little bias, but as a fashion bloggers it’s essential to have a nice collection of sunglasses. We have put these suckers through the test and they have met our expectations. The thing that we love the most about his collection is the styles are simple, clean, and timeless – think little black dress, your classic Chanel bag, a pearl necklace. I wouldn’t feel like a good wifey if I didn’t share his hard work with our lovely readers and I’ll let him speak for himself: “The inaugural #001 Limited Edition release from J.

That, coupled with the fall weather, had me reminiscing about those care free days when I would throw on a college hoody, skinny jeans and a pair of Uggz. Yes, I know how cliché that is and I’m not going to lie…I still own a pair and still wear those Uggz when I walkthe fur-baby below 30 degrees. Don’t judge. Well as I mentioned, the overcast skies, scattered showers and brisk, cool weather in Richmond made for perfect cozy, sweater weather. My favorite go to in the fall now is a silk or denim button down shirt layered under a chunky knit sweater. This simple combo creates an effortless element to any fall look and if the weather brings a surprise warm up, you just shed a layer! I added my new joie crepe joggers to complete the look which was perfect since they are incredibly comfortable and perfect for weekends like this. We were sad to say goodbye to our RVA friends after such a relaxing weekend and, although it had me feeling nostalgic about college, I’m glad to say my […]
