It’s like “JCrew and Urban Outfitters had a baby”, a friend had said… so of course my attention was instantly captured! Aritzia offers many wonderful basics with an interesting design twist; which is refreshing to see! Here’s my current favorites… The Talula Trancas Jacket (a very versatile 3 season jacket, which one would never know …
Getting Organized with Walker Bags
My recent solution to messy contents sloshing around in my handbag are the helpful and lovely double zip pocket Walker Bags. I love them in metallic mesh for their elegance, though they do come in a range of other playful colors and even in single pockets. *Photocredit: Walker Bags
Scarf Treasure: Faliero Sarti
I’m in love!.. again ;)… I saw a gorgeous Faliero Sarti scarf on 11th. Moon’s website because of You Tube’s Chrissstttiiine. It’s a peachy pink, delicate half cotton half silk with floral border best worn as a shrug scarf in my opinion, though there are many other wonderful ways to fashion a scarf. I have …
Sally Beauty’s DCNL Hair Accessories
I haven’t written on this topic for quite a while. Hair accessories… love them!.. and something that you can never have too much of ;). Every once in a while I’ll find myself wandering the beauty aisles and find something blog-worthy, like Sally Beauty Supply DCNL’s both pretty and handy-to-have hair accessories. I’m normally a …

Salpy, Pretty! Pretty!
Salpy brand makes the prettiest shoes; however, it’s VERY expensive at regular price. I waited too long and missed the Salpy sale at Simply Soles =(. The Larita style reminds me of higher fashion clogs and mules, but are described as slides or slip-on heels. At one point Simply Soles stocked, navy, black, and pewter …
Leather Backpacks
Many years ago when I first began my graduate program, I carried a very handsome and dependable Perlina black leather backpack. I remembered one snowy night, quite like today, I decided to walk home rather than to wait for the bus (which was uncharacteristically delayed). The backpack had survived my walk through the harsh weather …
Mad Bombers & Aviator Jackets
I’m not sure how I became fascinated with shearling aviator hats and aviator jackets? Was it my passion for studying about American history, specifically World War I and World War II (though the Civil War was equally as intriguing) or the costumes which occasionally appeared on old comedy shows such as Abbott & Costello (my …
Talbots: My New Found Treasure
I’ve known about Talbots for years. I never gave them a real chance when I was in my early 20s (currently in my 30s). Even back then they carried basics and American classics; however, I believed they were for the more mature woman (nothing wrong with this but it didn’t appeal to me at the …
