This week has been rough. Scratch that, this month has been rough. I don’t know if it’s the cold or lack of sun or the general doldrums that is waiting for spring but I have been struggling. I’m not normally one for wallowing but I have found myself in need of a mindset makeover. More …
In case you can’t tell from these photos, my favorite trend right now is RED! I usually am all for the monochrome and tend toward neutrals but something about this trend is so fun. I haven’t quite made it to the all red ensemble but there are some red pants I’ve got my eye on …
This outfit brings together so many things that make me happy – a great leather jacket, navy blue, a little pattern mixing, and some fierce glasses. Sometimes you just need a feel good outfit and this definitely checks that box for me. For fall, when the temperatures are volatile, it’s all about the layers. This …
I have to say this outfit is making me happy right now! It’s made up of some of my favorite layering pieces this season. The vest I’ve been wearing on repeat with outfits like this one or with some over-the-knee suede boots and a big scarf. The beanie is so warm and cosy that I …

That said, there are definitely challenges, the most significant being finding clothes that fit. While every body type has …
One of the ways I put together an outfit is to combine different textures. Some fabrics don’t play as nicely together like linen and wool (though never say never). But I love a good brocade pocket square or tie with a corduroy blazer or suede bomber. Texture is one of my favorite ways to add interest …
