I’ve owned these overalls for a couple of years now, but only this season have I received several compliments on them. Even one of my closest friends (you know the type – who may roll their eyes at your overalls and say endearingly: “only you can pull these off”), complimented these bibs. And it’s true, I’m seeing gals rocking overalls all over town (and outside of the playground!).
Skinny leg, oversized, cropped, and even shorts – there’s an overall for everyone. In particular, I’m loving them paired with fitted and flirty of-the-moment tops. I’ve been coveting an oversized pair that I saw on a a woman on the street; perfectly worn with a fitted off-the-shoulder top and casual sandals. I should have stopped to ask where she found hers. This outfit was inspired by her look.
And this top?! If this isn’t a throw-back to my youth, I don’t know what is?? I’m pretty sure I owned a lace-burnout fitted shirt like this one back in high school yet (as most things now), this one is just better. So good in fact, I also bought the black! Stay tuned…I have plans for this one with oversized denim and a bomber jacket. It’s also in my suitcase to be worn this weekend with a pair of wide-leg, flowy pants. Fitted but not too much…just right!

Ok, if I have to mourn summer, I can tolerate it whilst wearing blue velvet booties. I’ve been completely smitten with velvet for the past couple of seasons and now I want everything in this luxe fabric! It may become a little weird when I start wearing it all together (all.the.time)!

While I admit to being a summer girl at heart, there are certain thrills that come with the change to the cooler months of fall and winter. Among them are the rich textures and sparkling detailing that adorn our clothes as the days get shorter and the weather colder. Although sequins can be worn throughout the year (and should!), seeing more of this sparkling fabric in stores reminds me that the festive season is around the corner.

I’ve been talking a lot about 90’s fashion of late; frankly because it is all the buzz this fall, as many styes are reminiscent of the era that brought us both “The Rachel” haircut and Doc Martins. As a person who came of age in the 90’s (ah hem), this decade holds a special spot in my heart. And my closet! While drawing 90’s inspiration for the blog and last night’s 
While the grunge-era may have put Seattle’s style scene on the map, it’s really the forward-thinking and community-minded citizens that continue to make this beautiful, Pacific Northwest city a desirable place to live. And a Seattle charitable event close to my heart? The annual “Wine, Women & Shoes” auction inspires both my creativity and feeds my soul. What better way to spend a stylish evening than among girlfriends enjoying great food and wine provided by local chefs and wineries, a shop-for-a-cause marketplace filled with many local designers and retailers, and shoes (handbags too!). But the real inspiration begins when you sit down and are treated to a presentation from a recipient of Olive Crest’s foster and adoption placement services. Proceeds from the event directly benefit Seattle-area children in need of “forever-homes.” The evening concludes with a fast-paced fashion show highlighting the latest trends and featuring local entrepreneurs as models.
