Whirlwind Month Part 2: Demi & Seven

October 14, 2014

Last week I shared the first few fashion shows and events I went to in September, which was basically my whirlwind month. It was fun, but I’ve been so happy to have my nights and weekends back!

Bellevue Fashion Week Seven Salon Illuminssence Show

Wrapping up my fashion week experience was the Seven Salon Illuminessence Show. This show was absolutely amazing – I would say this is much more creative than any of the other shows, with intricate hair styles, unique and beautifully crafted outfits, and fast paced music. Continue reading →

Paisley Swing Dress

October 10, 2014

I don’t know if I’ve ever been so excited to have no plans for a weekend. Seriously, I am so behind on everything that I’m just excited to have some time to catch up on my backlog of things at home and things with the blog. No one tells you that blogging is basically like a second job once you get going. It’s fun, but man is it needy.

Speaking of needy, this blog is in need of a little face lift that I’ve been putting off since I changed the design and moved to WordPress to begin with. But never fear, nothing too crazy, just cleaning things up based on feedback from the reader survey. (Which I’m still totally stoked about, you guys rock.) I know change can be rough, so if you don’t like it someone tell me. It’s like when people get spinach in their teeth and no one tells them… don’t let me be spinach teeth girl, please.

Tribal Shift with PinkBlush

September 19, 2014

I wish I could say I took these outfit photos today, because this day was a beautiful one in Bellevue. It was in the high 80s… and today, after coming home from the magical land that is Disney… well, let’s just say I am freezing to death. It’s gray and it’s totally feeling like fall over here. When we left Anaheim the temperature was 106. Pretty sure it barely hit 70. Quite the difference.

Thrifty Thursday: Fall Uniform

September 4, 2014

I can’t believe it’s already September. But can I just say, I’m so excited to start wearing my fall uniform again? Seriously, I love nothing more than cozy sweaters, booties, and my skinny jeans. Expect to see a lot of that this season.

I could try to make up something to write in this space for you today, but I really don’t have the words. What I do have is this outfit. I can tell you about this outfit, so I will. Continue reading →

Thrifty Thursday: Happy Pants

August 28, 2014

These pants may not be the most flattering. Some may even think they’re crazy. But more importantly, I’ve deemed them the Happy Pants, because they’re bright, colorful, and slouchy-comfy-coziness makes me smile.

With styling, sometimes I think people get really hung up over what is the most figure-flattering. I think I get caught in that trap too – but let’s be real, sometimes I want to wear something that feels good, not looks good. Not to say I don’t look good, or that I do; I think this is a fun outfit. I can chase my dog around the park and not worry about breaking an ankle. But it’s not traditionally what one may call chic, fashion-forward, or ground breaking. And that’s okay. Some days this is what I need. Continue reading →
