The perils of Winter fashion!

I love how accessible Whitney Port’s style is. It’s not super glamorous or haute couture, but it’s still vibrant, fresh and functional. Functional is a major priority for me these days since the weather is doing its best Antarctica impression. However, winter is no excuse to slack off on the fashion front, and I’m loving this cozy look from Whitney. Read More »

This week has been a blustery one in my town and I’ve sadly had to set aside my leather purses. I’m anal and won’t bring them out in any sort of bad weather: snow, rain, sleet, etc. I’ve been looking for fabric purses that can stand up to the northern winter and think I’ve found one that was just made for Thunder Bay. The Madewell Blanket-Stripe Tote! Read More »

Even though we are fully into winter in the North, I’m still enjoying wearing my skirts and dresses out and about. By layering tights, leggings and sweaters, you can pretty much carry your summer wardrobe through the entire year. However, I’ve noticed that I’m lacking in fall and winter dresses. Everything I own is very bright in color and sometimes, especially on a cold day, I just wanted to wear a muted, flowy skirt or dress. I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled for a winter maxi and think I may have found it!

One cold-weather staple every girl should have in her closet is a sweater dress (at least one). They’re practical, because they keep you warm when the weather’s not, and they’re super comfortable! Plus, they’re easy! Sweater dresses the perfect go-to piece for a day when you’re too lazy to try to put together an outfit — you can just throw one on with a pair of tights, leggings and your favorite shoes (heels, flats, boots and wedges all look great with them), and you’re done! And what’s even better is they don’t have to be expensive — here are some great options for under $20 a piece! For prices that low, I’ll definitely be stocking up. Read More »

I have an extremely surprising and shocking announcement for all of you: I hate UGGs.

Now that I’ve got that off my chest, I’ve decided to counter these hideous slippers (yea guys, they’re slippers not boots) with 10 boots for under $200. Today’s retail price of a pair of UGGs is between $150-$180 (for the traditional UGG Australia brand UGGs), so it’s not like I’m asking you to hand over a ton more cash than you already would have.

Below are ten cankle-free, stylish alternatives to the UGG! Read More »

I don’t know about you, but lately, I’ve been swamped with assignments and midterms. Every single time I put one textbook down, I have to pick another one up. Many people, myself included, like to study in a super comfy outfit. For some that means sweats and hoodies, but me, I love a good, bulky sweater. Not only will it keep you warm enough to focus, it’s a versatile piece that you can actually wear outside of your house (as opposed to sweatpants). And I think I found my latest addition to my sweater wardrobe: the Topshop Knitted Aran Cable Jumper.

This cozy sweater is made of a cream wool-acrylic blend and knit in the beautiful Aran style. FYI: This style got its name from the Aran Islands off Ireland. The cables are a bit chunky, but not so big that they make you look plump. Despite being a delicate knit, it’s machine-washable (bonus for students!). And if that all wasn’t enough, it has adorable elbow patches with tiny cable-detail.

Like I said, I love wearing chunky sweaters while studying, so I decided to start with that outfit. Read More »

[The following post comes straight from our BFFs at CollegeFashion. If it weren't for them, we'd still be wearing platform sneakers.]

Here at the University of Oklahoma, you will find a pair of cowboy boots in nearly everyone’s closet. Wearing them to class isn’t really the norm (unless you’re a frat boy and are also rocking a Columbia fishing shirt and backwards Ralph Lauren Polo hat), but girls here save them for occasions like home football games and country concerts. At OU, cowboy boots signify that you’re ready to dance and have a great time. I’ve had the same pair all through college, and the more beat-up they get, the more comfortable they feel!

Though cowboy boots aren’t unusual in parts of the midwest and the south, in many regions of the United States (and in other countries) these boots can be a neat way to make your outfit stand out. It’s not always easy to see cowboy boots as a fashion statement rather than just a part of a costume, but that’s why I’m here. Need to brush up on how to rock cowboy boots without looking ridiculous?

If you live anywhere north of Florida, chances are you’ve had to deal with snow this year. I wouldn’t even bat an eyelash if tomorrow the weather folks announced that even our Florida friends were going to get hit with a version of SnOMG . And total side note, apparently we are all VERY excited about the Blizzards of 2011. People on Facebook are eager to come up with their very clever play on words – Snowtorious BIG, Snobama, The Snowtuation?!. It’s like we’ve never even seen this white powdery stuff we call snow before.

But I get it. The weather has been bat sh*t crazy. And totally unpredictable. Sort of like your emotions right around your period. And even though Thundersnow is a fun word to say (especially when said like this: THUNDERSNOOOOOW!!!!) the very cold truth is that actually walking around in Thundersnow is the opposite of fun.

So I figured, what better way to help you prepare to brave the elements than with a way to stay warm yet look cool. Now you can throw a snowball, sip a hot cocoa or trudge through 12 feet of snow and look fabu all at the same time! Read More »

When I first looked at the Fall 2011 runway collections, I was torn about the abundance of velvet. Growing up in the ’90s means I remember the last time velvet was really popular and I shudder at the thought. But thanks to the genius of our favorite designers this fabric has been given new life.

Velvet is luxurious. It’s rich. It’s generally heavier, making it the perfect winter fabric. It’s also extremely soft to the touch, meaning a velvet dress could be the perfect way to get your crush to come a little closer (though hopefully it doesn’t encourage him to rub you inappropriately).  If velvet dresses have you feeling like yourself as a five-year-old (when your mom made you pair it with crochet knee socks), there are a lot of tops or jackets (like the motorcycle one!) that are a fresh, updated take on the fabric. And if you’re not convinced a major velvet piece is for you, there are plenty of accessories to add some luxury to your outfits.

Below are 15 rich, velvety pieces I’m loving. Click on the image for all the shopping info! Read More »
