Skulls and Bows
Skull print fashion seems to be everywhere these days. Alexander McQueen’s popular skull print scarves, skull prints in “couture” clothing, and even in some of the jewelry from Disney Couture. When did skull jewelry, skull accessories, and even skull prints go from being seen as “goth” or “rebellious” to just plain trendy? I’ve enjoyed skull print stuff for a long time now and it’s good and bad that there are so many options these days. 5 years ago, I would…

Summer Essentials – The Maxi Dress
On summer days when I don’t want to think too hard about what to wear or just need to “throw something on”, this is when the maxi dress totally comes in handy. Paired with a belt, sweater, and your favorite sandals, the maxi dress covers all my favorite “Cs” – comfortable, casual, and chic. This one by RVCA not only has all of those elements, but the light pink color is great for spring/summer. And the tribal print is subtle enough…

Monterey Weekend
It’s easy to take things for granted living in the Bay Area. Case in point, I have lived less than two hours away from Monterey for quite a long time now and can’t really say I have ever gone as an adult. I was always a little reluctant to go thinking it was going to be boring, there would be nothing to see, and that it wasn’t worth the drive. But I was incredibly wrong. I finally went down this…

Going to E3 2013 and What to Wear – The Stylish Geek Edition
When I first read this Forbes article on what to wear for E3, I was pretty disappointed. I admit that the outfit with the blazer plus company/gaming/geek tee was a great idea, though not the exact pieces I might have chosen. But going sort of “punk” to a S.T.E.A.M. Punk (Science.Technology. Engineering, Art, Math) E3 party was ridiculous. The writer obviously didn’t do her research (probably because she didn’t know steampunk was a “thing”) and it was offensive to geeks…

Sea of Blue
How can I even start to describe this amazing Rachel Zoe maxi skirt? On the rack, it just looked like another silk skirt, but wearing it, especially on a somewhat windy day, made me feel so elegant and so feminine. It’s hard to really capture how beautiful this skirt is in photos, but hopefully you get the idea. And this is definitely a great piece that could easily go day to night! Just beware that it does run really long…

Another Year, Another Disneyland Outfit
I’m finally back and recovered from Disneyland! I’m also sadly one year older. Sigh! Attempting 24 hours at Disneyland was crazy. I think we ended up spending something like 16 hours there, and even though we didn’t survive the entire 24 hours (we only made it until 3am), I had a blast! Parades at midnight, breakfast burritos, dance parties, TV crews, and people dressed up in costumes and even in their pajamas! It was an amazing experience, but I will…
