10 Worst Things About Maternity Clothes
Before I begin this list of complaints in earnest, I’d like to acknowledge that it is better now that we don’t “put all our clothes away and wear tents for nine months” as my mom described her experience with maternity clothes. (And Mom had five kids – that’s about four years of tent-wearing!) Despite the…
Nordstrom Anniversary Sale vs. Amazon: Shoes, Loafers, Mules, and Boots
With every blogger on the internet compiling Nordstrom Anniversary Sale favorites, I got the idea to compare the sale’s prices to shopping on Amazon. I chose shoes as the comparison because shoes are both something that I think Amazon excels at, and also something that I, personally, would realistically shop for at Nordstrom proper. (I’ll…
PSA: Teva Flatforms are a Sound Investment, and I Have a Sale Alert
Public Service Announcement: There’s a Teva sale on at Haute Look right now, if you’ve caught this blog right away. Most prices are around the $40 point, and this sale is the widest selection of colors and styles of Teva platforms I’ve seen in one spot. Like anyone one with reasonably good taste, I…
Challenge Accepted: Floral Bomber Jacket and Faux Pixie Cut OOTD
Confession: I actually really do not like floral, generally speaking. But I love bomber jackets, and very light layers. Recently I’ve been enjoying attempting to adapt trends that I don’t really care for into something that I actually like (for example – I did my own version of glitter roots at Christmas). Its a way…

Hi-Low Skirts and Concert Tees – I Have These for Brunch – OOTD
Confession: I really couldn’t decide between two full body shots for this post, so I’m probably going to post a gif alternating between the two of them on Instagram. Also writing copy for outfit posts is awkward. On one of the mornings, early in spring, when Dallas was starting to feel like itself again, I…
I Unfollowed WhoWhatWear; It Felt Great
Confession: I’ve more than once wanted to commemorate unfollowing someone – either a blog, or on Twitter, or Instagram, or whatever – with a liberated rant post, but I’ve always felt too bad to do it. I really, really, wanted to tell you about it once when I unfollowed a very popular blog. I wanted…

Punk Princesses and Other Familiar Oddities of Asia; Disobey Princess Jasmine OOTD
A few days ago, Fashionably Geek’s Punk Princess tees post reminded me of this alt Princess Jasmine shirt I picked up in Japan. This one is probably pushing the envelope just a little harder than the designs they featured, what with the electrical tape on the nipples and all.. (Thom actually advised me not…
OOTD – Black Pattern Mixing, with a Clip
I still have a round up of pictures to do from the women’s march, and several more complex posts I’m kicking around in my head… But one of my goals for my recent revitalization of the blog was to do regular posts, even when I only have something small to say. So all I’ve got…
