Signature Style: For The Weekend

So how was your week?  Have you been living for the weekend?  Time to wear your pj's all day or slip into you favorite pair of jeans.  I am thinking the same thing! 

I decided for this edition of signature style to get down to weekend basics :)  I love a great pair of jeans that fit like a glove (and it is a bonus if they are in style) and are comfortable.  I love slipping into my PJs on a Friday night and watching Dateline with a glass of red wine....lordy has my idea of a good time changed :) 

In any event there are certain items I have to have for my weekend!  Here are some of my favorite weekend go to items!

1.  J. Brand Love Story Jeans

I absolutely adore these jeans because they fit great, look amazing and you will have them forever!!  Even better they come in white for spring/summer :)




2.  Gold Earrings

I absolutely love, love a pair of classic gold stud earrings.  I love the simple classic gold balls (if you will) and I love that some designers have a new take on an old concept.  Tory Burch has done a great job creating a pair of cute, simple everyday earrings! 



3.  Ponytail Holders

I adore a great, functional ponytail holder.  I always have a ponytail holder on my left wrist, at all times, no matter what!  So you can imagine my surprise and excitement when I found cute ponytail holders that actually work.  These are my absolute favorite and I wear them to dress up my ponytails and buns all the time!


4.  Pajamas

I love, love a great pair of pajamas.  I am a bit old school and sleep in what can only be considered as classic men's pj's!   I also love sleeping in an oversize sleep shirt.  I love being comfortable and cute when I lay my head on the pillow.






5.  Slippers

I love a great pair of comfy, functional slippers that I can wear to the mailbox (and maybe to the store....no judgements)! 

My feet are always cold so a great pair of slippers that keep my feet toasty and look somewhat presentable are a must during the winter months.  I found the answer in these precious Tory Burch slippers!




6.   A Great Cape

I love wearing my super functional, warm Tahari cape when I am running errands during the weekend.  It isn't as binding as a normal coat and it dresses up my outfit just enough that I can run to the mall or have lunch even if I have on yoga pants.  I also love that it is a somewhat neutral color so I can wear it with anything and everything.






7.  My Prairie Skirt

I absolutely love my long, comfy skirt from Michael Stars!  It has become my favorite weekend wear.  In the spring and summer I wear it with flip flops and in the winter I wear it with you guessed it.....my cowboy boots!  It is super comfortable and a great alternative to the sweatpants and yoga pants I normally wander around the house in.


8.  A Great Tote Bag

I love a great, easy tote bag I can use on the weekends.  I use this map tote all the time!  I throw magazines, my iPAD, file folders and whatever else I might need and head out the door to run errands or head out of town.   When I bought it about a year ago they didn't have as many cities/locations as they do now!  They are adorable and so functional.

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleeding and was away from home and my

At Home Facial Favs

Image
Happy Monday!  I hope you and yours had a great weekend.   On Sunday I gave myself an at home facial and documented some of it on my instastories and got 100 questions, ha!  So I figured I would share what I used here.   The first question I got was the frequency in which I do at home facials and I don't do them as much as I want to or probably should.  I aim for once a week but it's probably every other week.  I love going to a spa and getting a kick ass facial but there isn't always time and sometimes they can be pricey so I've developed an at home routine for myself. I will say as I get older my skin is changing so I'm having to investigate new and different products.  My skin is sensitive, prone to breakouts and can be super dry and super oily so it's a constant juggle for me to find products that actually work for me.  Recently I've been using a ton of philosophy products and I have loved every, single one of them so far!  I also love that you get

Old School Calendar

Soo I have a case of the Mondays and by the way it's Tuesday....booo!  I had a super fun weekend at Steeplechase and honestly wish Steeplechase happened about once every month because it was such a good time.  :) When the hubs and I returned on Sunday from Cville we started talking about all the upcoming events/weddings/trips/business trips etc. we had coming up in the next 5 months and it felt like an elephant was sitting on my chest!  I know I have all these things coming up but to be honest they are sneaking up on me.  For example I will be in St. Simons for a work conference next week and I completely forgot.  I leave the day after my birthday (is it just me or do birthdays get let special the older you get?)  So I have been scrambling all day to make my travel arrangements and in general get my sh!t together. I realized that I'm probably going to have to buy an old school day planner to keep the hubs and I organized over the next six months.  When I mentioned this
