Shoes.com

I have been wearing these shoes all summer. Ive worn them to work at the office, Ive worn them to the beach, Ive worn them several times a week. They are so comfortable, and I was able to snagg them for $20 earlier this year.

I also give Shoes.com two thumbs up.

Old Navy Goes to the Office

I was browsing OldNavy.com and I was surprised to find that they have some tasteful business separates. This is something I would wear....



Women's Plus Belted Pencil Skirt $32.50
Women's Plus Tailored Shirt $29.50
Women's Quilted Tote $19.50
Women's Pointy-Toe Sling back Flats $16.50
Women's Faux Pearl Choker $9.50
Total $107.50

I am currently in love with pencil skirts. They work on such a wide variety of body shapes. It can be dressy enough for the office, or casual if you please.

Igigi also has a great resource on what a pencil skirt looks like, and what kind of shape it works on. Just click on the section that says "shapes" for more info.

I love button down tops, I own many different colors, styles, and shapes. It can be dress with a nice skirt or pant, or many can be casual with jeans or khaki's. A lot of times I wear a cami or some type of tank top underneath

The bag is functional for work. You can throw your papers in there, a lap top or even your lunch. There is plenty of room. The shoes are a change of pace from your regular heels. Give your feet a rest! And for those who aren't fortunate enough to own a strand of pearls, this necklace makes a fun substitute. Have I mentioned how much I love this skirt?

Bitten by Sarah Jessica Parker (sold at Steve and Barry's.

Bitten....by disappointment.


As you may of heard, Sarah Jessica Parker released a line of clothing called "Bitten". Its being sold at a store called Steve and Barry's. You can read more about her line at the BittenSJP website.

My take? Total disappointment, for me. The jeans go up to a size 22 and I could not even zip them up. Im typically a 22-24. I tried on the xxl tops and they didnt fit either. The regular Steve and Barry's size 22 and XXL don't fit either, so it was a disappointment all around. The quality and style of the items were similar to Old Navy, but cost less.

Looks like I will be sticking with Old Navy where I can fit into many xl and xxl tops. And I never seem to go wrong with Lane Bryant jeans.

Lilli Jean

I am pretty much in love with the dresses over at Lilli Jean The dresses go up to 4X, but according to their size chart, that is 18-20. For $25 they state any of our garments can be custom made, just for you, according to your unique measurements! The whole retro attitude of the clothing? Loving it!
