City Chic Audrey Hepburn Style
I know it may seem crazy depending on where you live and what the weather is like there, but lately here in the Midwest it has been a bit on the chilly side! Especially in the Windy City (A.K.A. Chicago) where I have recently spent a bit of time helping my brother move to. Although we have been busy lifting heavy boxes, it is never a bad idea to dress up for a day on the town! Recently, I shared how I like to style a trench coat in the springtime but today I am sharing another way to style a classic camel trench coat. Matter of fact, this entire…

Green with Envy
One of the freshest shades of the summertime season has appeared to be green. This color surrounds us in nature in the summertime, but that won’t stop me from letting it take over a small corner of my summer wardrobe. Green has been popping up everywhere in summer fashion lately. It feels like so many different styles are incorporating differing shades of green to liven things up and I am loving it! After finding this green striped top at Kohl’s, I know it would be the perfect addition to my summer closet and it would play well with a lot of different accessories. Instead of going with a pair of…

How to Style a White T-Shirt
For a while now I have wanting to write a blog post all about how to style a white t-shirt. I know the white t-shirt seems like a real basic and easy to achieve style, but there are so many fun ways to dress it up without it being a plain outfit. Now, we all know that a plain white t-shirt is an obvious wardrobe essential, but often times we think of it as the thing to throw on when we are not feeling like dressing up. But I want to share an easy way to dress up that casual t-shirt. My go-to dress up a white t-shirt style is…

The Two-Toned Polo
I have been absolutely loving polos this summer! To me it is the perfect addition to any wardrobe because it is both classy and fun. Today I wanted to share another cute polo I will be wearing a ton this summer that reminds me so much of the gingham trend that was so popular last spring/summer. The one aspect of this polo that I am always drawn to is the two-toned style. With the collar being white and the print a nice navy blue, it really gives this polo a fun two-toned look. It really adds another pop to the overall outfit that wouldn’t be there if the collar was,…

What I Wore for Memorial Day 2019
As I get older, the holidays that mean the most to me are less about receiving gifts and more about the people you surround yourself with. Six-year-old Sarah might have told you that her favorite holiday was Christmas or even her birthday. But mature nearly twenty-year-old Sarah is much more invested in the holidays like Thanksgiving (when everyone can be together), the 4th of July, and Memorial Day when those we know or not are remembered for their dedication and sacrifice. So, I wanted to share what I wore on Memorial Day not because it is all about the fashion, but because it is about how I honored those who…

The Underrated Style of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy
Any woman whose mother-in-law was Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis (I just wrote a post all about Jackie’s style too) would have been a little nervous when it came to filling in Jackie’s fashion shoes. However, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy was a strong, opinionated lady who knew what she liked. Today, I will be focusing on the underrated style of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and how she changed fashion forever. Although when we think of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s life we think of her untimely death, there is so much she contributed to life and fashion while she was alive. Modern street style would not be the same if it were not for Carolyn. Today, you can easily draw…

Floral Stan Smith Sneakers
If you follow me on Instagram, you saw me unbox these cool sneakers and promise that I would write a blog post about them. (If you don’t follow me in Instagram, be sure to check out my profile at @sarahgsigmon) Since I am a woman of my word, here is the post that I promised! For a while now I have been looking for a cute new pair of sneakers. Now, as you probably already know, I have very specific taste so this presents a little bit of a challenge. I searched high and low at all of my favorite places to go shoe shopping with no success. Thankfully, I…

Oui, Oui, & Merci!
I struggled to think of a cute and fitting title for this particular post, but I never struggle in the morning to pick this sweater! France has an undeniable history with fashion and they have always been highly influential on what women of that time were wearing. That is what makes this top so perfect for paying homage to that long, varied history. Although I have never been to France (let alone somewhere as fabulous as Paris), I like to think that wearing this top helps to give my wardrobe that timeless French flair. Not only is it a nice tip of the hat to fashion history, it also has…

Balloon Sleeves for Fall 2018
We’ve talked about how the princess sleeves trend is huge for fall and it will not be slowing down anytime soon. Matter of fact, the runways we saw during Fashion Month in September proved that we will be seeing princess sleeves even in the spring of 2019. But today I am going to tell you about another sleeve style that has the same kind of popularity and longevity as the princess sleeve — the balloon sleeve. In some ways, I kind of like the balloon sleeve even better than the princess sleeve. This look is cool for fall when it isn’t cold enough for a jacket yet. They trendy sleeves act…
