Annie Hall might not have had the best taste in men, but her menswear look has been emulated since the film’s debut in 1977. Break out a suit and tie with some tasseled flats. As a petite gal, I am shying away from the flats and opting for some height with a tasseled heel. You … Read more
My fiancé is an awesome filmmaker and photographer that loves to take pictures of me, but sadly we have very few pictures together. This made our engagement photo shoot ultra important! We have a ton of empty picture frames sitting around the house waiting for our nauseating couple shots that adorn side tables of people … Read more
I ain’t afraid of no ghosts, but I’d rather wear a costume referencing pop culture. Halloween has always been a means for me to express my creativity. Normally, I guard my Halloween costume choice until the final unveiling on Halloween. I literally (properly defined) start planning for the holiday starting on November 1 every year … Read more

April combines two dresses into one cute look!
Now that fall is here, I paired my Miu Miu inspired DIY booties with a pair of dark wash skinny jeans. The best part of the glitter trend is that they act as a neutral. I threw on the polkadot jacket because I like to slip them into my outfits in fun and unexpected ways. … Read more
Wearing: Emilio Pucci top from Consignment Shop Encore Plus; Tahari Tweed Pink Skirt; Jewelmint Desert Rose Necklace; Jewelmint Western Wonder Bracelet; Swarovski Bracelet; Swarovski Earrings; Ralph Lauren Lucite Sunglasses; and Burberry Sandals.
As I was looking at the snap-shots of the Fall 2011 runway, I decided that I must have the Miu Miu Glitter Bootie! Once the sparkle ankle booties were released on Bergdorf.com with a price tag of $890.00, I immediately concluded that I would have to stop eating during the Fall in order to get them by winter!
Everyone is venting their frustrations about the ebayers selling Missoni for Target items for double the price of retail, but no one is talking about the original price markup on these iconic goods. I am sure that the cost to make half of the Missoni for Target items is less than a dollar. It is all … Read more
I finally tried out Rent the Runway! I have been on the mailing list for a while, but was apprehensive since I prefer to re-wear my clothing. I decided to try it out for my engagement photo shoot because I was having a hard time finding a dress locally. Also, I know that if I … Read more
Missoni is coming to Target this Tuesday (9-13-2011) for a limited time. I have been looking for a Missoni item to add to my closet for months and I almost bought a Missoni towel from Gilt a few weeks ago. But, once I heard that Missoni was making a line for Target, I stopped looking and … Read more
Tomorrow is labor day and I plan to wear white jeans to work on Tuesday in direct protest to the fashion rule forbidding this. The origins of this rule are debatable, but most people agree that it has something to do with the end of summer. Labor day is a reminder to put away leisure-wear … Read more

I cannot fight my craving for colored jeans any longer! Day after day I open my closet and every neutral piece is screaming to be matched with a pair of fire-engine red jeans from J. Brand, my favorite jean company. I love every pair of J.Brand jeans and would have a closet full of them … Read more
TOMS are my dream shoe come true. They help people, look adorable, and are extremely comfortable. With every pair purchased, TOMS gives a pair of shoes to a child in need. I finally purchased my first pair when I was in L.A. a few weeks ago. I have been wearing everywhere. I have worn them … Read more
It’s official! I have an unhealthy sample sale website addiction. It combines two of my instinctual drives: sale shopping and competition. The concept is as simple as it is genius. The website starts by discounting designer items, then it sets a time for the sale to start. When the clock chimes the bargain hunters swarm … Read more
I had a girl play date at sephora this weekend and discovered some wonderful products by trying on few things and getting some samples to test out at home.
As of a resident of the “football-shine” state of Florida, I’ve been dressing for the football games since high school. With the Super Bowl right around the corner, I am putting together my “Sunday best.” If you’re like me and have no preference either team, you probably don’t have any Steelers or Packers team gear. … Read more
A few trends stood out to me as I was watching the spring runways this year.
Neutralize your Footwear by aprilgolightly featuring high heel pumps My mother was the type that wanted everything in her wardrobe to match and by proxy I caught her matchy-matchy ways. The fashion world has changed and the matchy-ness of yesteryear is virtually extinct. My style resolution this year is to embrace the neutral and … Read more
