A red satchel is an all season staple for me, but in the spring/summer it pumps up all of my navy pieces with a pop of color.

Another month has come and gone, and between a busy work schedule, illness and the search for new childcare, I almost forgot to ask for questions for the AMA. Luckily, I remembered late last night. So here we go. I always think it’s funny when people send rude or overly personal questions when I put […]
I love stocking stuffers. They are the best part of Christmas. There’s just nothing quite like an affordable gift that’s funny or useful or chic (or maybe all three). So here is Part One of my stocking stuffer gift guides, where nothing costs more than $30.
In the name of fiscal responsibility, I’m taking a shopping respite through the end of the year. When you write a fashion blog, not shopping is like being a person on a diet who moves into a McDonald’s. But I’m determined to flex some self-discipline now that my holiday shopping is done.

Since my daughter was born, Amazon has claimed so much of my money that I had to buy stock just to get some of it back. Between the formula, onesies, fruit pouches, diapers, wipes, and ever evolving list of baby development gear, I could not survive without Prime. My husband no longer notices the […]
Saw this one at Nordstrom for full price this past weekend. It has compartments AND is on sale at Kate Spade online.

Has anyone had good luck with Nine West bags? I went through a phase during college where that was all I bought. Then I realized that they fell apart so often, I was spending several hundred a year. I haven’t bought one since, but I like that red one. I wonder if their quality has improved?
I bought a fabric one about three years ago, and it’s held up just as well as my leather purses from other brands with about a year of continuous use when I bought it and sporadic use since. I can’t speak for their leather purses, but I’ve had good luck with my fabric one!
