pop of color :: jewelry

One of the easiest way to incorporate color into your wardrobe is with jewelry. Bright-colored jewelry abounds this season, in every color under the sun. The great thing about jewelry is that you can add it to literally anything already in your closet, pair it with neutrals, other colors, patterns, prints and solids…and you can [...]

The Stella & Dot Spring Collection

As many of you know, I have quite a jewelry obsession. And one of my very favorite jewelry lines is Stella & Dot. {I love Stella & Dot so much that I have been repping the line for almost four years now.} I am always estatic when a new collection launches and I can honestly [...]

lauren’s purse essentials

I cleaned out my purse over the weekend and took inventory of my essentials, the things that I can’t leave the house without! I noticed my essentials share a “pop of pink” theme…even my snakeskin wallet that is trimmed in hot pink! Since I love each one of these “essentials” so much, I thought I [...]

the power of red pants

Let me preface this post by saying that I am not a “red” person and typically never purchase red-colored clothing {since it’s simply not a good color on me}, so the fact that I am blogging about a “must-have” wardrobe item that is, in fact, red, is highly unusual!
In recent months, I have been obsessed [...]

the closet project :: week 6

Happy 2013 everyone!
You may have noticed that the Closet Project took a little, ahem, break over the holidays.  I can neither confirm nor deny that this was due to an extended period of lounging in stretchy comfort.
(Okay, fine.  I can confirm it.)
But, I’m back.  And ready to show you the (few) outfit combos I came [...]

The Pantone Color of the Year for 2013 is Emerald. Pantone describes this vibrant shade of green as “Lively. Radiant. Lush…A color of elegance and beauty that enhances our sense of well-being, balance and harmony.” Sounds pretty great, doesn’t it?!
Emerald green is a shade that adds depth to any fashion ensemble, whether it is introduced [...]

the closet project :: week 5

Y’all.  I’m not gonna lie.  I’m writing this week’s Closet Project in my sweatpants.  Shhhhhhhhh.  Don’t tell anyone, okay?
I have an excuse though, I really do.  I’m a little under the weather, and have been sneezing and coughing up some really interesting things.  Wait, what’s that?  You’d rather hear about my closet than my sneezing [...]

the closet project :: week 4

It’s December, y’all!  Or as we like to call it in our house, “The Month Where We Spend At Least A Gazillion Dollars On Babysitting, and WHY Did I Not Become a Professional Babysitter, Again?”
This week kicked off the holiday season festivities, which basically meant that I had to create outfits worthy of more than [...]

the closet project :: week 3

Welcome to the Closet Project :: Week 3!  It could also be called “The Closet Project: Is it Time to Put on My Stretchy Pants?”  Because, y’all?  This week was all about eating.  (Well, really it was all about giving thanks. But also, the food.)
During our Thanksgiving dinner, everyone went around the table and named [...]
