What To Wear

Let’s face it — going to dinner with couple friends is not just an excuse to catch up, but also an excuse to show other cute couples how cute (and stylish) you are. I mean I don’t know about you, but I’ve got two usual ways of dressing — for the office or for weekends at home. So the only time I get to wear something that’s at all sexy or fun is when we go out, and these days, our idea of a wild night out is a late dinner with friends (god, when did we get so old). But for some reason, picking out an outfit, even if we’re just going to dinner with good friends who couldn’t care less what I look like, stresses me out. It’s probably because I don’t have a lot of “going out” clothes now that hitting the bars and clubs isn’t in my regular weekend lineup. Here are my favorite outfit ideas for going to dinner with couple friends.

Easter is one of my favorite holidays. It really marks the official end of winter…

I don’t know about you, but my mailbox is already filled with invitations to spring…

The funny thing about spring is you wait forever for it to come and then…

Since it’s officially spring and ain’t no weather man going to rain on my sartorial…

I wasn’t sure if I could do the whole polka dot thing. Honestly, I worried it was too cutesy for me, and I still can’t decide if I look like a dalmatian cupcake in this dress. But I like it, and rather than obsess over whether something fits my style or if I’ll love it in a year or whatever, I’ve started to go with the shopping approach of buying what I love, and it was love at first sight with this dress.

I don’t know about you, but I have had enough of winter and sweaters, coats,…

Packing for a beach vacation is always my favorite thing to do, especially when it’s the middle of winter and I’m so over all my winter clothes. All those summer shorts, sundresses, and sandals feel fresh again. Plus, it’s the perfect excuse to pick up some of the pretty floral dresses and coverups that I’ve been seeing everywhere and lusting over. Still, since packing is never easy, I created a list of essentials to help make packing for your next beach vacation easy. Here’s what I’m packing for our upcoming beach vacation and a checklist with all the essentials you’ll need for yours.

I am not even gonna say how sick of winter I am because I say…

Recently I went to a baby shower in the Connecticut on a frigid day. I wanted to look cute and slightly spring-y (or at least not wear all black or my current uniform of the biggest, warmest sweater I can find). As per usual I wasn’t liking anything in my closet, so i ordered a dress that is actually the perfect winter to spring dress.

After going through a major dress phase, winter has finally gotten to me, and all I want to wear is jeans and a sweater. However, when you work in fashion, you gotta step up your jeans and sweater outfit game. My go-to strategy? A statement coat and a great pair of shoes.

It’s been a gross week of cold, wet weather. The good news? It’s also been a short week! Honestly, after being super indulgent and lazy over the long weekend, I didn’t feel like getting dressed this week. The slushy, gross weather didn’t help. Luckily, it was more of a grind it out on big projects kind of week at work, so I didn’t have to get dressed up for any events or presentations so I went with a more casual vibe.

I actually find dressing for spring weddings to be the easiest of any season because stores are filled with pretty new arrivals. But finding the perfect dress is always a struggle, so I’ve rounded up a bunch of great options to wear to a spring wedding. 

Here’s how to look just festive and put-together enough for a Sunday night Oscars Party — without looking like you’re headed to your own red carpet.

Dressing for a kid’s birthday party is not exactly like dressing for an adult birthday party in that kids are messy and their parties often involve some form of activity that doesn’t exactly mesh well with heels or cute dry-clean only dresses. Still, cutoff shorts and a t-shirt doesn’t exactly live up to the effort involved in an event that often involves hired kiddy entertainment, catered food, and personalized decorations (or at least in NYC, where the birthday parties we’ve been to can be way over the top). And hey, kids are a lot of work, so after making it through another year, it really should be just as much about celebrating the parents, right? The trick to dressing for a kid’s birthday party is finding that perfect blend of comfy and casual and kid/baby-proof but still chic. Easy enough? Yeah right! To help, I put together a guide for what to wear to a kid’s birthday party. 

After the Christmas holidays, Valentine’s Day is one of the few excuses to get festive during winter’s darkest days. Whether you’re heading to a party, finishing multiple bottles of vino with your girls (or your cat), or going on a romantic date (which I’ll be doing for the first time in a looonnngg time), here are some Valentine Day’s outfit ideas. 

I wanted these overalls the minute I saw them even though they’re from one of my favorite maternity lines, Hatch Collection, I knew they would fit because the line actually designs clothes you can wear at all stages — not pregs, pregnant, and post-partum. As anyone who has had a baby knows, your body changes so much during pregnancy and then post, and having high-quality clothes that you actually love that are comfortable and chic is so hard to find.

This year, we returned to Park City for the Christmas holiday. While I wasn’t as good about documenting my outfits as I had hoped (sorry, I was too busy running after a two year old, enjoying the snow, and mostly, stuffing my face), I did manage to capture a few of my go-to looks.

So for a twist on my usual week in outfit posts, here’s what I wore on our last ski vacation. 

Vacation is officially over, and I for one, am mourning the end. Luckily, it was…

After an amazing ski vacation in Park City, we are back in the city and…
