I'm absolutely loving my look, and I know, I say that in every post - but the most important and rewarding relationship you will have in life is the one you have with yourself...and I must admit that Me, Myself and I are having the best menage a trois.

Tonight's the Fort Myers Art Walk downtown and I can't wait to enjoy the free wine and fine art that all of Southwest FL has to offer. This little event is becoming an integral part of my very scarce social calendar. I'm joining uber fab jewelry designer, Erika Pena tonight, and she always brings a good time with her. Fall in love with her amazing pieces here.

Here's to a good Good Friday...

This black and white chained sweater from Forever 21 was an impulse buy that has continued to bring me joy every time I wear. Paired with my Marc Jacob toggle sweater coat, it was the perfect outfit to battle the lovely weather Florida is having. 60 and a little windy. I love it!

Can't believe the weekend is fast approaching. I put a few books and the movie Princess Mononotke on reserve at the library - I've never seen this movie, but I hear it's life changing and absolutely, AMAZING!!! An EPIC film. Here's hoping...

To: Alex Wang, With Love: Ernest Bee...

My Inspiration - Alexander Wang Spring 2010
Today I went for the TKO - total knockout for my non boxing fans. Trained by A.Wang's Spring 2010 collection, I chicly knocked them out of their shoes at work today. Fridays in the office are always very casual and today was no exception.
Note: I'm going to try to start keeping the word count down on the blog, because when I'm reading other blogs I always hate a lot of words and wish for more pictures - the whole acting my shoe size and not my age totally comes into play here. Deal with it!

Any who (watch your word count, watch your count...), I'm going thrift hunting at a new shop that just opened up down the street from my house. And, you'll have to be very, very, quiet, we're hunting GPa cardigans - my all time favorites. Figured since I'm in the retired city of Fort Myers, FL that shouldn't be too hard to find; here's hoping.

Wearing my favorite Zara vest that I first introduced here. The versatility of this piece is just beyond words. More posts are sure to follow because I don't believe in wearing something only once or twice. I LUST (more intense than Love) every piece in my well curated wardrobe that they work double time - cost per wear or CPW is the best logic to use when shopping. Dividing the total cost of something by the amount of times you think you will wear it, gives you the ultimate cost per wear (final retail price in my eyes). For me, this vest started at $40 and now costs me $8. It's value is depreciating faster than the housing market.There's go the word count. Shit! Ok...stay focused...paired the vest with my Marc by Marc Jacobs sweatshirt, Levi 510 Super Skinny jeans, and Aldo lace up oxfords. TGIF!!!

Baby It's Cold Out...



Arrived in so called Sunnyside Florida on Saturday and it was 35 degrees out! Definitely not complaining because constant 85+ degree weather can really wear on your spirits when getting dressed in the morning - have you ever tried to wear a cardigan and have to constantly explain that it's a summer cardigan as you sweat off every ounce of confidence you had when you first put it on? Well I do. So, whenever I get a chance to raise from the dead my winter loves, I'm all over it.


First day back to work in 3 weeks - I was on maternity leave (Holiday Vacay). Wearing Banana Republic t-shirt, Levi 510 Super Skinny jeans, White House Black Market Blazer, and Nicole Farhi velvet scarf, underneath my favorite Marc Jacobs oversized sweater. Oh how I love the "Where does he think he is" looks I get from the locals. A constant reminder, I don't think we're in Kansas anymore.


This is my favorite Marc Jacobs distressed leather tote that I scored from the NYC Special Items store in the Village. For $45, how could I resist? New wayfarers from Urban Outfitters.


My own personal heroine, Venti Soy Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks! Happy Monday!
