Mixed Neutrals

If there’s one thing that I focus on most for my summer wardrobe, it’s limiting the amount of black clothing and accessories that I wear.  (What can I say, I love a good all black, everything look.)  That means incorporating more neutrals, and I love pairing slightly different tones for a little more depth.  For (…)

July 4th

Hooray, Hurrah!  The 4th is upon us (or, the 3rd is, actually), and I can think of no better way to spend it than at the beach.  For a festive day in the sand, a patriotic suit and a great coverup are pretty much all you need.  Of course, bold sandals, a holds-everything beach bag, (…)
