This is a good cardigan for the office. I don’t know about yours, but my day job’s office is freezing, even in the middle of summer. It’s light, made with linen, but Rory Beca as made a simple pretty cardigan worthy of everyday. Plus, it’s on sale! ($140)

Remember the sisterly team of Maki Squarepatch? Well, I was taking a cruise of their site today and found this dress. I want it. It seems perfect for that holiday party that I have yet to be invited to. Vintage dresses are so much better. ($182)

Ive kept an eye on Kahri for a long time, mostly because KahriAnne Kerr also attended my alma mater, Iowa State. She was one of the few local designers we had and I fell in love with her funky wares. She’s grown incredibly as a designer since her move to NYC and it makes me […]

I believe white after Labor Day is just fine, especially if it gives me a reason to wear this gorgeous dress by Elijah. It’s more summery, but it would look good with a little bit of layering. ($410)
