a splash
A little rain on Saturday. Easiest way to deal? With with these cheap-o rain boots from Ross or Marshall’s or one of those places near work. The Shamrock had an open studio, then I went with friends to a midnight screening of The Room. Have you done this? Notoriously awful, the movie has developed a Rocky Horror-style cult following with hilarious chants to the screen and tossed...

I don’t really know. But the excitement is contagious! First time to the World Series, I’ve been told. My dad, uncle and brothers were jubilant.

Lime Green and cream. mmmm I love this outfit in photo. But in real life, the belt didn’t stay wide and the skirt was a bit taut. At $1.99 : one wear = a-ok. I enjoyed the whispery flutter at my knees. Thanks, skirt. Into the Buffalo Exchange bag! George Rodrigue Shirt from BuffaloX/Dallas, skirt, belt & shoes thrifted. 100% Resale

big pimpin
I’m pimping out Rue La La today. They are offering a $20 credit for new peeps (you), when you sign up through a current member (me). I get $10 credit when you make your first purchase, so we both win. So far, I’ve had about a 50% success rate with ordering. (But returns are free & easy with a full refund, so no big) Currently, the Rue super deals now living in my loft...

Oh man! What a whirlwind the past week was. I was sick at the beginning of last week. Something I ate should NOT have been ingested. So, Monday I went comfy to work in F21 leggings ($5) & this cream sweater dress from Buffalo Exchange ($12). Was going to just brown and cream it, then decided even in sickness that was too boring, so went with various colors of white. The sweater must...

fashion! turn to the left
Hello. Coming to you live from New York City. I generally pre-queue my posts about a week or so, but I’m away working and didn’t get a post set up for today. So, here’s a peek at the action (as captured by cell phone) : Sorta like working on movies, except not recording sound so there is music and banter and everyone is friendly and nice. steph likes.

road tested
Remember these Michael Kors heels I recently purchased? I (riskily) wore them to travel from Dallas to NYC and then in NYC for that whole day and night. These heels kicked so much ass, I have to give them another shout out. Now, every person’s feet are different and unless you are a queen or Victoria Beckham, ya ain’t getting custom, molded-to-your-feet shoes. However, these...

to the eleventh
This belt came with the David Meister dress. I thought it was cheap and useless, but NO! I’ve been defaulting to it a lot, lately. Apparently, I needed a 1 1/2” black patent belt in my closet. It got (perrrrfectly) warm again here in Dallas, but too late…my wardrobe mindset has switched to fall. This outfit was a good compromise. Vintage dress discussed here. The...

The collar is amazing and I felt very Miss Scarlet from the Clue movie. If I should receive a...

new boots in action, that is. Thrifted navy wool/acrylic H&M dress $7.98 Thrifted belt $.99 Thrifted Bottega Veneta purse $5.99 Prada Sunglasses from Last Call & Halogen boots from Nordstrom (scroll down to prev. post for prices) Unfortunately, wool sometimes irritates me. I’ve done well wearing slips, but this one still irritated my sensitive, fair skin. Disappointment. ...

a connection was made
French Connection dress $24.50 from Buffalo Exchange. Oof! I had a hard time with this one. It is unlined, simply put together and was about $10 more than an item like this is typically priced at Buff. But I had enough credit to cover it. The cut, pattern & colors won me over. Also wearing a sequin belt that came with something. While you’re reading this, I’m in NYC for...
