Whatcha Wearing Wednesday

I traveled to Chicago for Blogher 2013 last week and took some pics of a few of my outfits.  I was quite happy that I managed only a carry-on sized bag for the conference and didn't need to use my second duffel that I had packed on the route home.  It was also the first year that I didn't buy anything new to wear to the event.  No costumes, sweet dresses or anything else were needed.  When I mentioned on Twitter that I had packed only two pairs of shoes my friend Jodi declared, "Two pairs of shoes for BlogHer?  You win at life."  Maybe just in packing skills. Travel Day … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday- Stitch Fix

Is there anything more exciting than a Stitch Fix box delivered to your door? Well, the answer to that is a bit complicated. I LOVE getting that little box in the mail. "Oooh...what's inside?" my brain buzzes. I dream of Breton-striped tops and swishy skirts with cute accessories. I rip open the box and squeal in delight as I sift through the layers of soft and fluttery fabrics, chunky knits and um... long sleeves and sweaters? What the what?! … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday- Summer Days

We've been having a real laid-back life here lately. It's what we need and what summer is all about. I think that if you can grab that time, then go for it. Since a majority of my time is being spent at swim lessons by the pool or hosting kids at my house, I'm not into layering accessories or wearing a whole lot more than shirts and shorts. This happened- … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday

Just back from a week long vacation spent in the sun, at the pool and on the beach, I have no inspiring outfits to show from the whole trip. It was just me and my bathing suits each day with various pairs of aviator,  Jackie O sunglasses and hats put on for cover.  I may look tan but it is really just one giant freckle glommed together despite SPF slathered on from head to toe. I wore the heck out of that swimsuit! I packed at least two others but found this one just made me happy each time I wore  it.  It wasn't until the second time that I realized it was a yellow polka-dot bikini. Beach day!  We spent a gorgeous day in the ocean until dark clouds approached and soaked us to the skin just before reaching the car.  One of our favorite days away.   Home again, getting … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday- Red Carpet Edition

This week I went out of my comfort zone and hit the red carpet with H on Friday night.  What started out as a regular ol' week ended with us getting dressed up in something a little beyond the norm.  I didn't care about the celebs like say, a certain Mr. Channing Tatum, I prefer my celeb crushes to have  a bit more character to them after all. No, I only cared about going out with my man and spending time alone with uninterrupted conversations, a few cocktails and some free popcorn.  Check it out... … [Read more...]

Whatcha Wearing Wednesday – Rainy Days

As typically happens on a busy week I try to plan what I want to wear the night before to avoid a morning fashion disaster. Or you know, wearing gym clothes or khaki shorts and a blogging T. Except when the rain happens and you have a bazillion errands to run with two wee ones in tow it ain't too practical to be wearing a dainty chiffon dress like this one by Everly. … [Read more...]

Watcha Wearing Wednesday-Royal Purple

Long ago I bought this royal purple dress and thought it would make the perfect throw on and go sundress. Meh. I love the color on the hanger but I can't tell you how many times I have pulled it out only to put it back in the closet and wear something else. Here I am in 2011 at Blogher, San Diego wearing it for the first time. Oy.  Looks like Mommy went on a little business trip. Heh. … [Read more...]

Watcha Wearing Wednesday- Red & Black

It's that time again!  Time to show off the best of what we have worn in the past week.  For me, it was a lot of black and red combinations due to traveling.  I think the colors pop, look sophisticated and fun and all of it traveled well.  Let's take a look, shall we?  Don't forget to show us what you rocked this week by linking up too! … [Read more...]

Watcha Wearing Wednesday- Mom 2.0

I wore a lot of carefully planned and executed looks in the last few days. I was in Laguna Niguel, CA for the Mom 2.0 Summit "being my brand"  to the best of my ability. That brand being me, my blog and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle that includes a love of fashion, accessories and all things beauty related.  I plan on putting a few of the looks up over the next few weeks. Onward with day 1 where I sort of felt like Wonder Woman in my outfit, in more ways than one.  … [Read more...]
