One versatile little ditty


I finally feel as if I've stocked up on enough of these to share it with all of you :)


The menswear inspired shirtdress by Lands End is incredibly versatile AND adorable as all heck. It looks just like one of my husband's button-down work shirts except way cooler. I wear them from everything to a BBQ to dinner out to a TV appearance (added a leather belt and killer pumps) to work! They are simply seasonless (in the summer, roll up the sleeves, in the winter, add tights and a cardi) and JUST went on sale for $39.99.

Get your own (or one in every color and print like me) at www.LandsEnd.com

Lately I'm obsessed with...



















The "Maxi Dress." But lately, who isn't??





Every celeb is wearing them... the preggers ones love 'em cuz they hide the bump but are ever so cute and the non-preggers love the comfy summer style... and even if you don't live in So Cal, the surfer lines are doing 'em best (Billabong, Roxy (left), Oneill and Reef.)



It's also a figure-forgiving style that almost ANYONE can wear. Beware if you are VERY petite (it could overwhelm you.) If so, choose a solid color or ombre print. Taller gals like myself can wear pretty much ANY print, but should opt for a smaller print to avoid looking HUGE (never a fun thing.)

Best of all...your maxi can take you from the office (add a cardigan and sandals and it's the perfect outfit for casual fridays) to the beach (they make a super fab coverup.)
