What I wore Wednesday nautical

style

I’ve never done a What I wore Wednesday, but I’ve thought about it for awhile.  Usually what I wore on Wednesday isn’t super fancy, just jeans and a tee, but I was fancy yesterday.  I had to run errands so I got dressed.  Here’s what I wore. My new favorite Nautical tee from Costco.  Love. White House Black Market Skinny Jeans.  They fit like a glove. Boots from Target.  I’ve gotten MILES out of those babies. Belt: Thrifted from D.I….

Must have make-up primer

If you’re wearing any significant amount of make-up and are over the age of 17 {AHEM}, you should be wearing make-up primer. It’s basically spackle for your skin. Sounds terrible, but it’s magical. It fills in all the lines and problem areas you don’t want anyone to see, and it feels like silk. Go get some.

blue jeans white stitching

You guys, I don’t really know what to say about these.  I mean, aside from the fact that they’re totally Jersey Shore.  Trashy looking.  Dated.  Hideous. They feel especially small town.  I see them all over town, with rhinestones on the bum no less, and I think “Ladies please, there’s another way!”. You know what’s worse?  When dudes wear them. Stop the insanity. True Religion Jeans, Laguna Beach Jeans, Cheap Jeans, Blue Jeans, Buy Brand Jeans

hot sandals for summer 2011

I can’t even wait for Summer.  Like, I’m already having fantasies about taking my kids to the local pool and reading magazines in the burning hot sun while I drink a cold beverage. It doesn’t feel really close in Utah, but it’s just around the corner. I wanted to share some of the hottest sandals out there right now for the Summer 2011.  I’ll give you a big fat hint: espadrilles are everywhere. I loved them when they were hot…

pedicure

bad fashion week series part 5

ugly jumpers

Bad Fashion Week Series Part 5: Jumpers. Of any kind. The Hollywood populace at large is trying to resurrect the pantsuit jumpers of yesteryear, much to my chagrin. There’s just nothing good about the jumper.  Nothing. I’m allowed to be judgmental here because I’ve owned more than my fair share of jumpers, both of the pant and dress variety. I lived in Utah in the 80’s and 90’s, there was no hope for me. My very opinionated opinion on the…
