I have a love-hate relationship with Express in pretty much the same way that I have one with Old Navy. It seems that when I visit, I either absolutely LOVE everything, or I absolutely LOATHE everything. Do you have a store {or three} like that, or is it just me? Please tell me it's not just … [Read more...]
Dear Old Navy…
August 3, 2011
You had me. You lost me. The phrase "Cropped Top" is bad enough. But adding "Sheer"? Really? Was that necessary? And I can't be positive, but I'm pretty sure I also saw a variation of parachute pants in-store. I definitely saw these crop tops paired with leggings in-store. REPEAT AFTER … [Read more...]
Who Cares About Organic Cotton??
August 2, 2011
I mean srsly. Let's not get carried away with this organic thing. Maybe like some of you, I didn't particularly care, until I thought about the entire process from planting to manufacturing; all that happens before an item comes to me. And I'd like to share how I came to care. Let's start with … [Read more...]

Score in the Target Shoe Clearance
July 26, 2011
I went into Target the other day to pick up some new sandals for the kids (because of course they outgrow their summer sandals when summer is almost, but not quite, over). And naturally, I had to browse the women's shoes as well. Well the clearance section in my local Target was just packed with … [Read more...]
Fall Fashion Preview: BOOTS!
July 26, 2011
I'm sure you've all had a blast with fashion this summer - but being pregnant has kind of put a damper on it for me.
