Black and white is apparently a really hot combo right now (obviously no one has thought of black and white before 2014). I bought a pair of white pants last year at H&M for $10 and . . . .they were not great. This year, I bought a pair from Aeropostale, for the costly sum of $18 and. . . I love them so much. Right now, I'm really into clothing that dresses up or down easily, and these jeans are perfect for that. A pair of flat sandals and a t-shirt, and they are super casual. Add ...

Raiding My Sister’s Closet: Wardrobe Workhorse – Box Pleat Skirt
In January, each of us shared one of the items in our closet that got a lot of wear. Here's #2. I have two of these box pleat skirts (the first one I've had for about three years, and I still wear it frequently). This one is new as of a few months ago, and I can't get enough of it. Red is one of my favorite colors to wear because it goes with just about everything, and works for every season. And this style of skirt is universally flattering, and is easy to dress up or ...

Raiding My Sister’s Closet: Not Boots, Not Sandals
The weather is going nuts in North Carolina - it'll be 80 degrees one day, then rainy and in the 30s the next day. So, not quite time to whip out the sandals yet, but I am so done with my boots for the year. Bring on the in-between shoes. Here are two of my favorites right now. I like these outfits because they are pretty similar, both made up of blues, grays and blacks, with the same bag and shirt but they have quite different feels. One is pretty casual and sporty, while the other is ... Read More about Raiding My Sister’s Closet: Not Boots, Not Sandals
Raiding My Sister’s Closet: One Scarf, Three Outfits
I really love scarves and I have a fairly good little collection (when I did my great closet purge, not a single scarf got axed). This one, though, is the only infinity scarf I own. I've worn it so much since I got it in December, that I'm contemplating turning some of my other scarves into infinity scarves (a single seam sewing project is one that even I can do). I like scarves because they're a super quick way to finish off any outfit. For this round of Raiding My ... Read More about Raiding My Sister’s Closet: One Scarf, Three Outfits
Raiding My Sister’s Closet: Transitioning an Outfit to Spring
After all that snow a couple of weeks ago, there are definite signs that spring is on its way for good. I hope. This week for Raiding My Sister's Closet we're sharing outfits that fit into that awkward in-between space of winter and spring. (For the record, Merrick took these photos for me when I was in California. . . so it's not like I actually was experiencing anything remotely resembling winter here. In fact, in the interest of full-disclosure, we were at the beach a couple of hours ... Read More about Raiding My Sister’s Closet: Transitioning an Outfit to Spring
