I have a number of summer events that require me to dress up a bit. When I'm going to be speaking or hosting, I usually like to wear a summer dress since it makes getting ready so very easy. Mini Asher Brahmin Bag | Fit & Flare Dress | Boots (similar) I've been singing the ...read more

I'm taking on two of the hottest summer trends: the off the shoulder top and shorts. While shorts are nothing new, we're now seeing them getting more and more dressed up. You don't have to just be Beyonce to pull off heels and shorts, I'm here to bear witness that just about ...read more

Thanks to Margo Siegel, I had some gorgeous jewels on loan for the RBaby gala. Sadly I didn't make it on the red carpet of the event, so I put my outfit back on to shoot some photos for Monday Mingle. I am all about the animal prints--they are timeless, but you can go overboard ...read more

It's so good to have the perfect LBD sitting in your closet. No one makes good decisions when a last-minute invitation rolls in and you try to find a dress in a pinch. If you're like me, you end up settling for something so-so rather than wearing something that makes you feel ...read more

My girlfriends have jokingly dubbed my alter-ego "Lydia." And unlike happy, upbeat, shiny Lauren, this Lydia lady is quiet, introverted, painfully pale... Gothic even—much like the Beetlejuice character who inspired the name. Lydia rocks sweatpants on blazing hot days at the ...read more

Don't tell my kids, but sometimes Mommy needs a break... And a glass of wine... And a moment to feel free and be silly. (Funny how those last two things seem to go hand-in-hand.) This summer, I'm embracing a new nightly routine. After I put the kids to bed--when the last bit of ...read more

I've always been a fan of the wrap-dress. Worn correctly, it can instantly cinch your waist and give you a flattering form. Maxi dresses, on the other hand, don't necessarily look good on every shape and every body. But, then again, they're so comfortable and so effortless and ...read more

This post is supposed to be about finding a stylish off the shoulder dress... But, really, it's also about finding the perfect strapless bra. You see, until recently, my sartorial options were extremely limited due to an unfortunate undergarment void. After having my second ...read more

I don't think I wore a single dress while I was nursing. I had tried to not buy much in the way of maternity clothes and could get by nursing in my regular tanks, tees and button ups. But dresses? No way. The logistics of nursing in a dress - whether a simple summer dress or a ...read more

Summer fashion is so easy: Dress, sandals, GO! Is there anything better than a floral dress in a bright color to embrace this time of year? I think not. This French Connection dress packs a LOT punch. It's got bold color and a fun swishy cut. I saw it at an event for ...read more
