A perfect wardrobe


One of my favorite movies is "a perfect murder", the late 90s remake of an old suspense movie.

Gwyneth Paltrow's wardrobe in that movie is nothing short of amazing.  Clean, classic, conservative, with a nod to menswear.....Combining oxford shirts, french cuffs, pearls, black tie, and fur.
Even her hair is perfect! If I were a blonde I'd be rocking that red lipstick as well.  (This red head will stick to her browns....)
















If you haven't seen it, worth watching for the closet and wardrobe alone!

Work bags

Realizing that I have a disproportional amount of bag posts, and an abnormal love of Barbour, here is a natural lust for me...

I am loving this Barbour bag.  I think it is a discontinued  item, as I cannot order it for our store this fall. But how cute? Love it! Looks like a perfect day to day work bag and travel bag!

To a tee...



I'm a big believer in the tee shirt dress.  I love the versatility. I wear them year round- with ballet flats or boots or flip flops. 
They're also the best for travel. To and from a destination, and a go to to wear multiple times in different ways on the same trip.... (a variety jewelry, belts, and scarves can make this look completely different!)

Here is a great one...eileen fisher for garnet hill....it is not cheap, but the quality makes them last.  It IS on sale, in 3 colors! here

 
 


I recently purchased (after months of stalking) on clearance the short sleeve version of the below in blue. Love, and for 40 dollars, it was a steal.  I do size down. They run large....here

<3 mz

Hubs got me an mz Wallace bag for Christmas, and I loooove it! It's a great travel bag, holds a ton, and I love that I can wipe it down to rid of travel grime or salt/winter ick!
I also fully tested  it.....loaded it up for travel to a trade show .......and it performed fabulously, even with an unbelievable amount of stuff packed in it.

It's the Mimi bag....in black.



I also love this bag, the style and color. It's now sold out:(




And this, so pretty! And screams spring! Who doesn't need a little spring about now?! And it is their best selling style!

Camo love


I love the camo trend that you see everywhere...I sometimes feel like a poser because I wear real camo as well as fashion, but whatever. 

I have eyed this vest up from Jcrew ever since I saw it in their style guide. Love the idea, don't love the styling (lower pockets on this, not my fav)


GOOD NEWS! Last week, I saw a camo vest and a camo jacket that is adorable, and in my opinion, better than any option I have seen. Pics coming, as soon as I can without getting in trouble. I.will.own.it.

J.crew, can we talk about this puffer camo skirt? for girls? PLEASE MAKE THIS FOR WOMEN.

Drowning....in fall clothing overload!

In work...paybacks from being gone. But fall retail store buying is one of my favorite times of the year! #Blazeorangeiscute #borntobeabuyer

January's travels


Just got back from my yearly trip to Vegas.  Doing some media meetings and PR, and buying for the store.  I met with beretta, filson, and Barbour.....some great finds for this fall! More to come on that....but it's going to be a great fall for sporting prep!

I went to laredo after to visit one of my most dear dear friends....fabulous trip....dining and shopping!

She opened a blow bar, blow me away, which is both gorgeous and wonderful.  Www.blowmeawaylaredo.com
And introduced me to sugar coat....a parrabin free makeup line. Obsessed. 
Www.sugarcoatshop.com

Blow me away...



I love the colors and decor, purple, turquoise and grey. It's clean and feminine.

Sugarcoat..

This lip gloss is epic! Get some. Immediately. 

Happy Tuesday!
