Friday Favorites – Blazers! And How They Make an Outfit

Friday Favorites – Blazers! And How They Make an Outfit

I’m a blazer lover – I have quite a few and I would say it’s a big part of my definitive style. But I wasn’t always someone who wore them. I think because I don’t work in a traditional office situation, it didn’t really land on my radar. However, once I started buying blazers and wearing them, I couldn’t stop! read more

Friday Favorites – Mad for Plaid

Friday Favorites – Mad for Plaid

Plaid. It’s a fabric that is universally liked. You would never say it’s controversial, or that people “either love it or hate it.” That’s saved for things like neon colors or zebra print.   It’s actually the opposite. Most people like it, and wear it, but don’t give it much thought beyond that. And though I’m typical that way, I own a few shirts and a scarf or two, at Christmas-time, I absolutely adore it!   There is something about a red plaid, whether it be in clothing or decor, that just screams Christmas to me. And though I did a very “neutral” Christmas in my own decor this year, it still has a special place in my heart this time of year.   So =&0=&! Here’s to the holidays, drinking egg nog, dressing up for parties, twinkly lights, packages tied up with string, and plaid, in both clothing and holiday decor☺    

Plaid in fashion…..

       
One of my favorite pins ever! Love the colorful scarf against the camel coat.
   
I’m seriously in love with this coat! Why am I such a coat person when I live in Southern California???!
         
Tartain pants! Adorable.
Perfect casual winter day outfit! And those red wellies!!
 

Plaid in Christmas decor….

Possibly the cutest porch scene ever! Perfection. Via Craftberry Bush.
 
Love the pop this plaid gives to this otherwise very neutral room. And how cute are those window shades?
 
Just lovely. Via Craftaholics Anonymous.
 
This is a tablescape I did recently using my new plates from Home Goods. The whole tablescape (with sources) can be seen here.
 
Via Better Homes and Gardens.
 
Again, just a touch of plaid in a neutral room can be very sophisticated.
 
Via Pottery Barn.
     
Beautiful! Via In Good Taste.
       
Just a touch in this room really pops. Via Pottery Barn.
 
Love this tablesetting. Via Williams Sonoma.
    Happy Friday!     Sheila xo

Friday Favorites – Heeled Loafers

Friday Favorites – Heeled Loafers

I have an absolute crush on heeled loafers. It’s one of those things where I saw them on Pinterest and on a few fashion blogs, and now I’ve become obsessed!  They are so classic and chic – and I’m glad they’ve reappeared after being gone for awhile.   I actually have an old brown suede pair that I adore. I bought them on sale, at a time when their popularity was waning, and because they have a heel and I had small kids and was living in yoga pants (!) back then, I never really wore them. But now that they are back, boy am I glad I kept them! They’re timeless (I’m going to remind myself of that when they go “out” again so I don’t make the mistake of getting rid of them) and oh-so-perfect for fall!   I love all loafers, actually, the prepster in me can’t get enough. But for some reason, the heeled loafers are really speaking to me right now. Probably because they go so well with the cropped and frayed jeans that are so in (you can read my take on that trend here). So grab a coffee, get comfortable, and get ready to fall in love!  
I mean, is this not the cutest casual outfit ever?! And there they are with those frayed, cropped jeans!





Another great outfit for a day out. And black is such a basic color to have them in. 

Love these heeled loafers in metallic!

Love these!



So cute! Love that heel detail!

Apparently I need to own them in red!

        So these are the ones that I fell in love with. Gucci suede loafers. Sigh…. Definitely an investment, and I’m sure something I would keep for the rest of my life. However,  since they aren’t realistic for me right now, I thought I’d try to find some alternatives that are equally (well, if we’re being totally honest, almost) as cute!

Friday Favorites – Cropped, Flared Jeans

Friday Favorites – Cropped, Flared Jeans

I’ve been planning on writing a post about the biggest and best spring fashion trends, but this one I’m loving so much, I just had to give it it’s own post! I’ve been ignoring the flared jean trend pretty hard…. up until now. Two reasons: First, I’m a definite skinny jeans girl and second, I really don’t want to have to buy all new jeans! read more

Friday Favorites – Pop of Color

Friday Favorites – Pop of Color

For my money, there is nothing like a great coat to make an outfit. You could be wearing something so simple, and having a dramatic or colorful coat can make the difference between an average outfit and a ‘wow’ outfit. In fact, if you pair it with jeans or neutrals, the coat is the outfit. And in the winter, with rainy, or cold, or just plain dreary weather, it’s great to have that pop of color to add life to your outfit, and your mood! read more
