Great Looks for the Office and Beyond

Here is a great business casual look. Transitioning into a cropped pair of cold weather pants can be a challenge as far as what kind of socks to wear. Notice the color of the sheer stockings. It is a much better choice than wearing the nude knee highs we used to wear in the 80"s.

The accessories and the cape are what stand out here and pull it all together.

Beautiful Living

Fab Finds: Mother Jeans


I am totally a jeans girl and I told you I would do a post on my favorite pair of jeans. The brand name is Mother. How appropriate right? They are a soft denim, very comfortable and well fitting. They have a retro seventies look which, of course, I love. The back comes up just below the waist and the front, while it is below the waist is not too low. It is not a good fit for everybody. As we all know finding a pair of jeans is a very individual thing but I did want to share with you. The style I am wearing is not the only one they make so there may be another that is perfect for you.

Love the flair cut which is slimming.
