Layer Love

Posted By claire | 2 Comments

layers

Vests over jackets over sweaters over shirts over skirts over socks over tights. There is little I love more than layering. I’m looking forward to warmer weather (I say this as there is snow on the ground), but I am going to miss piling on half my closet. Maybe my goal for this year will be to find ways to layer without adding warmth…. hmmm. What are your favorite layering pieces for warm or cold weather?

Floral Pants

I’ve been trying to find a vintage pair to have tailored, but now I’m leaning towards this or that.

Peach Jeans

A great way to wear pastel for those of us that look horrible in it. Love these!

Isabel Marant Renell Jeans

I can’t find them anywhere, but I did find a knock-off pair via The Fashion Guitar.

Five Senses For Friday

Posted By claire | 4 Comments

Yay! It’s finally the weekend. Man, this week has been so long and grey. Now in just a few hours, we’ll have some friends arriving for a fun weekend. Which may or may not include…. rollerskating! Yeah, that’s right.

Sight: Did you see the beautiful floral fabric by Anna Bond?

Smell: I heart Target and woodsy candles.

Sound: Tomorrow we’ll be seeing a bunch of bands play at the Russell Industrial Center, including The Flashbulb.

Taste: Tofu Edamame Nuggets from Trader Joe’s – a new quick meal favorite.

Touch: These tights. I’m captivated.

I’ve got the winter blahs big time and it’s making me realize how blah my wardrobe and home decor have become. It’s time to spice things up! Watch out print, color, pattern, and bling, I’m gonna getcha…

shoes, dress, flatware (I like the matte black too!)

Bold colors, print on print, spiked shoes, and the perfect pant length. Yes please! MSGM’s pre-fall 2012 collection is super sweet. I can’t wait to get my paws on a pair of those print pants.

The Perfect Pant Length

Jean or trouser, straight or skinny. I’m in love with a pant line stops at the ankle. If you aren’t about to take a big pile to the tailor, just rock the french cuff.

Remember how I told you about my super talented friend Erin Murphy who made my wedding dress and how you would be hearing more about her soon… well that time has come. After working alongside designers such as Vera Wang, J Mendel, Alexander Wang, and Narciso Rodriguez, Erin has took the leap and launched her own line, {EM} Reservoir. For the past several months I was working branding, employing the skills of my former co-worker to nail down the specifics. We created the logo, business cards, clothing labels, and the website. It’s been a busy few months, to say the least…
