Reader request…Liz!

Posted on February 24, 2012

Lucky girl Liz is heading off on a cruise in a few weeks to the Eastern Caribbean!

I can only dream…

Anyways…

She is planning on lounging most of the time but need ideas for dinners and port visits. (Sounds like my kind of vacation!!) Since I am a CHRONIC overpacker, I tried to reuse as many items as I could and create some different looks. Here you go Liz! Hope this helps you and have a TON of fun!!!

p.s. if any of you darling readers have ever sent me a request and I haven’t responded, I think I might have lost them…I know I have read some and can’t find them anywhere, and through comments, facebook, twitter and emails I get a little lost sometime!! So if I missed you, I’m sorry, and emailing me your requests is the best way; that way I can save the requests and nothing gets lost!! Thanks dolls!

Polo Anyone?!

Posted on January 16, 2012

Hello my darlings….another reader request!!

This one is from Tracy, she gets to go to a polo match this spring in Texas!! And I’ll admit that this was an interesting one, I’ve NEVER been to a polo match! Totally something on my bucket list and soooo jealous of Tracy!! So after I googled “what to wear to an American polo match” (LOL) I put a few looks together! They (google) suggested “country casual”…jeans, spring dresses and most defintaly flat boots…
Thanks Tracy for the email!!

The other day I was walking around one of my favorite malls in Calgary, Chinook Mall, and I was shocked.

Not so much by prices of things, or the fabulous sales. But rather by how turned off I was on what almost EVERYONE was wearing.

Now Chinook Mall is one of the classier (?!) malls…they have Tiffany & Co., Pottery Barn, Victoria Secret and Anthropologie, to name a few. And for Calgary, this is a big deal. Actually, for Canada, this is a big deal. I think there are only like 3 Pottery Barns in our country….

Anyways…

What I am getting at is that this mall caters to a “higher class” of stay at home moms and teens (the people who are usually at the mall at 10am)…so what they were wearing wasn’t shabby or horrible, actually, everyone looked REALLY put together. What bothered me was the VAST number of women wearing boots over jeans.

You know…

This look…

*image from here*

Now don’t get me wrong…I work this look, I LOVE this look…or should I say LOVED.

Because the more women I saw, the more I decided that I was SO OVER IT. Once something becomes soooo mainstream, I’m done…

- blingy belts, boots, coats, buckles…etc. OVER IT

- Miss Me jeans or any with the flashy embelished pockets…OVER IT

- round toed cowboy boots…

- burnout tees…

OVER IT.

Oh, and another look I saw A LOT of in the stores?! Aztec prints…

I adored this look this past September when all the great fall stuff was coming out…Now?! It has been dooonnneee by everyone and I am ready for the next thing. Of course I have worn all this stuff, but I like to find things and do it before everyone and their dog is too…I’m funny that way.

Soooo…that got me thinking. What do I think is next?!

Glad you asked!
