ttF Fashion Staples Month #7 Summary: July Blues
July was such an incredibly busy month from event planning to birthdays. The majority of the month was also abnormally cold! So I had to use July Staples to look summery while keeping warm. Even though the theme of July was denim, I rarely went for casual looks. It really just goes to show you how incredibly versatile jean can be.

Here’s the breakdown for July…

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Jumpsuiting Into the Weekend
Jumpsuits are one of my favorite pieces of clothing when I have go from day to night. You can easily dress them down with a jean jacket or up with gold jewelry. I did a little of both today as I went from work to Jen’s garden to happy hour to dinner at Gardens of Taxco (a super yummy Mexican restaurant where the waiters sing you the menu).

This was another fabulous Forever 21 find. The print is fun without being overpowering and the flowing pants are incredibly comfortable—and look even better in person.

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: March 30 Snuggie

ttF Fashion Staples Series Diary: Cashmere Snuggie
Between being tired from last night’s concert and the abnormally gray day, comfort was my main priority this morning. But I didn’t want to look like I just rolled out of bed so I added crystal bangles, red ballet flats and vibrant lipstick to my denim leggings and oversized sweater combo. The best part about the cashmere top? When you get really cold, you just put your arms inside the dolman sleeves and it becomes a…. (more…)

One Pair of Charley 5.0 Denim Leggings, 6 Different Looks

One Pair of Charley 5.0 Denim Leggings Worn 6 Different Ways

I used to be anti denim leggings. I’m not a legging person to begin with so I couldn’t imagine they could look better than a pair of skinny jeans. But when I slipped-or rather tugged-on Charley 5.0’s Denim Leggings ($165) it all made sense. Since there are no zippers, you can wear tight shirts without showing a bulge. And somehow, the material sucks you in like shapewear (these are not a garment that you want to buy big).

Granted, I’d never, ever, ever wear my denim leggings as pants, but as long as the majority of my butt is covered up, the super skinny style is the perfect contrast for all the lonely tunics hanging in my closet. If you can’t afford Charley 5.0’s, try these from Forever 21 for pretty much the exact same look at only 12 bucks!

What’s With the Overalls at Spring 2010 Fashion Week?

Overalls Shown at Spring Fashion Week 2010

In the 90s, I was obsessed with overalls. They are probably the most comfortable things in the world. A couple of years ago, I was given a tight pair of skinny overalls when the trend remerged. They weren’t as comfortable as loose Gap versions but I wore them a few times. But an overall gown? You could not pay me to wear one of those.
