celebrity rules

"I love blokes' shirts. I bought a plain white men's Prada shirt in Rome."

-Keira Knightley

"Just because a trend happens doesn't mean you should adopt it. Wear what best fits your shape."

-Janet Jackson

"Combine different materials in your accessories. I wear a lot of different bangles—gold, silver, wood, acrylic. It's fun."

-Ciara

"The idea of not wearing brown and black together seems so dated. The other day I wore a black T-shirt, black Nobody jeans, a brown leopard-print belt by Dolce & Gabbana, and brown Giuseppe Zanotti shoes, and it looked awesome. And I also love to mix prints."

-Rihanna

"Forget the old rules. I love white all year round. It's cooler to wear it when you aren't supposed to."

-Rachel Bilson

"I learned at a young age that physicality isn't important. It can be manipulated."

-Julianne Moore

an ode to rain

these past few days have been rainy. and windy. and cold. the wind and the cold i could do without, but the rain doesn't bother me so much. 

there is something about hearing that constant patter of raindrops on a roof that is soothing. and of course the rain will guarantee green grass once the winter snow melts off next spring. and to top it off, everyone gets license to wear the cute and whimsical wardrobe that can only be worn in the rain.

so many cute rain boots! you don't just have to wear plain yellow rubber boots anymore.

i love a vintage rain coat...complete with whales.

or how about a military inspired rain coat?

you can't go wrong with a classic trench.

don't forget a cute hat!

and of course, the umbrella. i prefer clear, so you can actually see where you are going!

get outside, act like a kid...splash in some puddles and have fun!

tuesday remix

i am definitely not one of those people who only wears a piece of clothing once. what a waste! i like to make the most of each item in my closet. that's what the tuesday remix is all about. every week i will take one item from my wardrobe and style it three different ways. this was my first attempt, so let me know what you think!

the item:

a brown and cream skirt from forever 21 a few seasons ago. my little sister bought this, never wore it and decided to hand it down to me. score!

outfit one: casual dinner and a movie

skirt as a shirt-one of my FAVORITE tricks!

i need more shoes

i was a big loser on friday night...i stayed home and organized my shoes. this is how i came to find out that i only have 60 pairs of shoes (not including tennies and flip flops). what a disappointment. i thought i had more. and then, i ended up getting rid of about five pairs. so i think i need more. what do you think? is there anything in your closets that you need (want) more of???
