In a perfect world, we wouldn’t have to work in the summer . . . but unfortunately the office life isn’t always avoidable. There are a few ways to make summertime work days more enjoyable, though. My advice? Wear a fun, breezy dress that boosts your mood! Carefully selecting outfits that make you happy can […]

Summer House is my comfort show. Unlike fierce competition series or even the dramatic Housewives franchise, this Bravo TV show feels much more laidback and lax. Every time Paige DeSorbo, Ciara Miller and Amanda Batula lounge in bed instead of going out, I feel seen. Stars — they’re just like Us. But beyond the lifestyle, there’s the location […]

Although we love the crisp comfort of spring, it’s time to start talking about how we’ll modify our closets to live up to the heat of summer! Whether you prefer structured trousers or flowy blouses, the bottom line is that you need a rotation of clothing that allows you to feel and look good. That’s […]

As we get closer and closer to summer, you’re probably ironing out the final details of your major trips and vacations — including what you’re going to pack. Regardless of where you’re traveling, it’s imperative to pack a white dress. A breezy white sundress is a quintessential (and versatile!) piece that everyone should have in […]

When it comes to summer denim staples, jean shorts are probably the first thing that come to mind — but they’re far from the only warm weather must-have. A well-rounded summer wardrobe has an array of denim pieces, including shirts, skirts, jackets and even shoes (yes, really!). You see, denim isn’t just the supporting clothing — […]

As I’ve gotten older I’ve learned to shop smarter not harder. What I mean by that is instead of purchasing items that I can only wear to a specific destination, I fill my closet with fun pieces that I can wear anytime, not just on vacation. This time of year I get the urge to […]

Packing for any trip is such a slog, and nothing is worse than when you arrive at your destination only to realize that the items you neatly packed away are a wrinkled mess. Sure, many hotels have irons in their rooms, but having to treat your clothes takes away from precious vacation time. There is […]

The days are getting longer and the weather is finally warming up — which means spring is finally here! If you haven’t yet, it’s prime time to start shifting your wardrobe for the joyful, brighter days ahead. It’s only natural to see fashions shift towards pastels, but if you’re not a huge fan of color, […]

Please note, deals are accurate at the date of publication, Saturday, March 23, but are subject to change. We did it! The weekend is finally here. We can celebrate with brunch, bonfires or binged TV — but my favorite downtime activity is always going to be online shopping. The fashion deals this weekend are on […]

Sex and the City may have first aired over 25 years ago, but Carrie Bradshaw remains a style icon to this day. I find myself rewatching old episodes to get fashion inspiration from Sarah Jessica Parker‘s iconic character. And I can’t help but wonder what Miss Bradshaw would wear if the show first premiered today. That’s […]

The official start of spring is less than one week away. We know — it’s wild! But it also means you should already have a game plan for your spring wardrobe. Whether you prefer frilly skirts or light outerwear, now is the time to find a deal on all of your essentials. Banana Republic Factory […]

It’s every girl’s dream to own a dazzling piece of expensive jewelry — and it’s something that’s totally attainable! If you’re not quite ready to drop thousands on bespoke necklaces, rings or earrings, though, you can definitely emulate the craft and details of designer pieces for less than $100. Heck, even less than $50! If […]

Dresses are at the top of our shopping list right now. But there are so many kinds! What’s going to have us feeling the most comfortable and chic? What styles will be most flattering? And can we finally ditch tight bodycon dresses for good? While there can be a time and a place for bodycon […]

Sure, blazers have been an office uniform for years, but that narrative is changing. Even if you don’t go into an office (I’m talking to you, work-from-homers!), stocking a few tailored blazers in your closet is a smart decision. Why? Well, you can wear them to any event — whether it be dinner, a date […]

No matter where you live, it’s always a chic idea to add some Brooklyn boho vibes to your wardrobe. Eclectic, vintage-inspired designs, urban-yet-comfy styles, trendy finds that aren’t “try-hard.” We’ll take all of the above! You’ll look like you stepped straight out of the subway in Williamsburg when you’re rocking these boho pieces. Step your […]

This awkward time between winter and spring is so difficult to shop for — the weather isn’t quite as warm as you would hope, but it’s too toasty for your heavy cold-weather attire. Luckily, there’s a solution. Staple transitional pieces won’t just take you from winter to spring, they can also be worn from spring […]

Corset this, bodycon that — let’s forget about tight clothing for a second, shall we? We’re not against it, but when it comes to the majority of our wardrobe, looser fits are the priority. Looser, flowier clothing is obviously super comfortable (no shapewear!) and confidence-boosting, but it’s also completely in style right now. Oversized tops, […]

Pastels are nothing new in the springtime, but there’s one color you’ll be seeing more and more of this year — butter yellow. The pale yellow hue evokes feelings of sunshine, and believe it or not, wearing it can actually boost your mood! While people often shy away from wearing yellow, butter yellow in particular […]

I’m sure you have a trusty pair of jeans in your wardrobe, but denim is such a staple fabric and should be scattered throughout your closet in the form of jackets, skirts, jumpsuits and even bags — seriously! There’s no limit on how to wear and style denim, and as spring quickly approaches, you’ll want […]

That’s it — this is the year we finally perfect our wardrobe. We definitely want to reserve hangers for fun trends and bold pops, but first things first.
