Movie Monday: Funny Face (1957)
Audrey Hepburn is known as one of the most stylish ladies in cinema history for a good reason! There is no better example of this than the film Funny Face. Not to mention the classic dancing scenes and songs that are scattered throughout this film, it is no wonder Funny Face is held in high esteem. These photos are not mine. I simply love Funny Face for a number of reasons, one being how bright and colorful it is! For 1957, its scenes vibrantly fill the screen with colors, motion, and sounds that makes this film an overall exciting experience. With all of the senses being used, this is the…

The Faux Cardigan
Burgundy is one of my favorites colors to wear this time of year! The ways to wear it and what you can mix it with is endless. And it always look so cute with a pair of brown ankle boots! Today I’m wearing a shirt from Shein that looks layered but it isn’t at all. It is a faux layered look, and it is one of my favorites tricks of the trade when the days get colder! Although I do love to layer with coats and vests, but I’m not much of a cardigan girl. This top is perfect for me because it looks like a button up with a…

The Peacoat Trend
Long before it became the trend of the season, I was wearing this fabulous peacoat! Last year, I went on the long and treacherous search for the perfect fall and winter coat for those days when it wasn’t super cold, but definitely cold enough to warrant wearing a coat. So I went shopping for a peacoat! Fast forward to this year, and I am seeing a lot more ladies follow suit in the peacoat path. This is exciting to me because I believe the peacoat always looks so classic and can dress up almost any outfit! I know that this style of coat is never truly “out of style”, but…

The Wonderful Style of Diana Prince
If you know me you also know just how big of a fan I am of Wonder Woman. I was hooked from the moment I watched the first episode of the 1970’s Wonder Woman show. Now that the iconic superhero has her own film, my love for this character has grown even more! Throughout the many years of Wonder Woman’s existence, we have seen her costume change with the time era she was in. It is commonly debated as to which Wonder Woman suit may be better than another, but what you hear little about is how Wonder Woman’s alter ego Diana Prince has changed her style over the years,…

Movie Monday: Leave Her to Heaven (1945)
On this Movie Monday, we a discussion one of the last great noir films: Leave Her to Heaven. The color pallet used in this film is not one you would expect of a drama/mystery. Technicolor was used to its utmost in this movie and it added to the intense plot that thickened as it went along. These photos are not mine. Although today we consider Leave Her to Heaven a classic, this movie did not go over as well with critics in 1945. Despite this, the story arch in this spoke to audiences at the time and was one of the highest grossing movies for 20th Century Fox in the 1940s.…

Plaid Made Chic
Fall is known for bringing out everyone’s secret love for flannels and plaids. Blame it on the chilling weather or the clouds that begin to gather in the sky, whatever the reason plaid is one of my go-to prints for fall fashion! I always love to find an oversized top, like this one, and tuck it in. This gives outfits a more layered look, in my opinion. For an even more layers, couple a plaid top with a denim jacket or a cool vest and you’ve got yourself a winning combination! Normally, with a black plaid blouse, like the one I am wearing, you might wear it with black skinny…

Leaves and Ruffled Sleeves
This olive green top is one of my favorites to wear during this particular time of year for many reasons. First, the ruffle sleeves are so much fun to pair with vests or just to wear on their own without a jacket. Second, the print on this top reminds me of the gorgeous falling leaves. Don’t ask me why, but fall is always the time of year when my style takes a little more of a country chic turn. You can tell by the way I choose to wear bootcut jeans a little more, and western inspired ankle boots. Actually, the boots I am wearing here have quickly become my…
