{ Dare To Wear } Floral + Feminine Dress To Say Bye Summer

Summer, I sure will miss you. Thankfully you’ll be back again, but I always get a little sad at the end of the season. I honestly think about all the summery outfits I didn’t get to wear enough. I know I can’t be the only one that does that. I also mourn all the seasonal … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Heat-Wave Chic

Holy hot temps! We took these pics in the summer swelter in the city of brotherly love, Philadelphia, of course! I love living so close to this amazing city, but dressing for these hot temps without showing too much skin can be a challenge. Makeup melts off and clothing must be light or else it … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Summer-Style To The Maxi

Like my dress? Thanks! I got it at a consignment shop and tend to wear it more than other maxis I’ve paid much more for. Why? The cut is so complementary, even on my 5’2 1/2 frame. The fabric is super light (perfect for the heat wave we’ve been having), but not sheer. Oh, and … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Vibrant Print = Vacation Vibes

Summer, it’s so nice of you to join us! Yup, it’s officially that season and I’m breaking out my warm-weather favorites. I am so thrilled that it’s finally the sunny season and I am so ready to wear those super-summery styles that have been patiently hanging in my closet. For this look I channeled my … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Denim + Denim

It’s casual. It’s cool. It’s often my uniform for living life. Denim on denim, or the “Canadian tuxedo” as many call it, is easy and effortless. Plus you can take it so many different ways, depending on how you accessorize it. A bright heel, slip-on sneaker, or perhaps snake-skin loafers — all-denim dressing is can … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Yoga Pants as Real Pants

Hello, hello! How I’ve missed you so! I took a little break from blogging (most of May! eeee!!). That was the first time I’ve ever taken a real blogging break since the blog started over five years ago. Work got busy. Life got busy. I needed to reflect. I felt kinda burnt out and ended … Continue Reading

{ Dare to Wear } Retro-Inspired Ladylike Style

I’ve always had a thing for retro styles. The circle skirt + this little jacket that I’ve owned for like 10 years = a ladylike look with a mid-century vibe and lots of personality, perfect for a bridal or baby shower. Note to self: remember this outfit the next time I’m running late to a … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Who Says Statement Accessories Can’t Be Casual?

Sunglasses: Check. Animal-print socks: check. Floral-embellished clutch: check. I heart this look, big time! This outfit consists of neutral clothes and shoes that can go with oh-so much, and eye-catching accessories. When it comes to clothes I tend to live in styles that are more on the neutral spectrum. Then I can mix and match, … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } My Everyday Style: Jeans + Tee + Vintage Vibes

Okay, this weather has been seriously throwing my blog photoshoot schedule way off. Last weekend it snowed, yeah, snowed! I know, #crazy #Imoverit #movingon. Now that I got that social-media banter out I can move on this latest outfit post. This is pretty much my go-to type of outfit. Skinny jeans, a flattering tee shirt, … Continue Reading

{ Dare To Wear } Yellow + Gray

I’ve been going gaga for gray jeans lately. They’re just so neutral and give a slightly edgier vibe than the traditional blue. Gray goes great with pretty much anything, but especially yellow. This mustard-yellow top, well it’s not a top at all, but a dress that you may recognize from these past blog posts (1, … Continue Reading
