As I’ve been doing a ton of traveling lately, I have a lot of “cake” to hide.
And that is why I think tunics are fabulous – they are a modern, chic take on the classic white shirt, and a great way of camouflaging some sin.
The City Stretch Pleated Tunic from New York and Company is a great find. First of all, right now, if you buy any tunic, you get a pair of leggings for free – I love that – but you’ll also score $30 off a purchase of $75 or more, or $50 off a purchase of …read more

I think I may die.
I’ve LONG loved Nancy Rose – but sadly, can seldom afford the items. The line is chockful of ethereal dresses and tunics, and they are made of the things I crave: wispy fabrics, loosely draped silhouettes…le sigh.
Plus, behold the super fine fabric and edgy details! It’s just like me, if I were a dress.
Right now, there’s a Nancy Rose sale going on at ideeli.com – where tons of iconic garments are on sale for 87% off..meaning I have just found my NYFW wardrobe.
Check out some of my favorite pieces:

Nothing like being 30 and having your mom still go apeshit over your outfit.
I was invited to a party at Aspen Social Club, a very winter-ski themed bar/lounge. I decided I would embrace my inner smoldering snow bunny and pair a favorite jumper (left), with cream tights and high sheepskin boots.
Prior to the party, I met my mom for coffee. “You are wearing that???”
I choose to see her thoughts as meaning I look pretty darn hot, and thus, mission accomplished. The jumper in question? The Impish Whisper Jumper, $66, M641 Winter ‘08 Collection, in the Twisted Whimsy theme.
For this look, …read more

No, I am not preggers (perish the thought!), but I have fell in love with something that may technically be a maternity dress!
Jonäno eco chic collections creates organic fashion to better the world (fashionably) – and recently sent me the dress at left from their Angel series. The line is full of romantic dresses, and all are trans-seasonal, truly timeless designs. This bamboo eco-jersey dress has an empire waist and satin trim accented “v” neckline. I wear it as a mini dress over opaque tights and my favorite high sheepskin boots but on colder days, it also works as a …read more

Stretch cotton style works as a tunic or a dress, with a blouson top and a low, banded waist.

* Unlined.
* Cotton/spandex; machine wash.

What I especially like about this dress is that you can wear it all summer long and then in the fall, you can pull on a pair of jeans and it still works. You have to love the fact that it will go …read more
