it's a plaid plaid world


Mini me and I both ended up wearing plaid to church today, so of course it calls for a dual outfit post. She is manning the camera remote and having trouble hiding it. This little remote has made taking my own outfit pictures a thousand times easier and faster. I now have it nailed down to about 4 or 5 minutes per shoot. If you are taking your own pictures this will be the best 40 dollars you ever spend. Trust me.

It was a girl's night out

It was the annual Girl's Night Out in Millersburg a few weeks ago. It was all things girly, everywhere. Marilyn was on staff at Rig & Co. giving complimentary mini manicures. Not only is she a great nail tech at Dexterity, I also get to have her as my sister!

A sweater with buttons for my neck



Who doesn't want a sweater for their neck?! This scarf is amazingly warm, fun and can be worn a thousand different ways. Well, maybe not a thousand, but you get the picture. If you are in my area or anywhere close get yourself to Homespun Treasures in Walnut Creek and pick up one of these "sweaters' for your neck. You  will thank me later when everyone else's neck around you is freezing and you are oblivious to the cold. Yes, it's that cozy. Have yourself a sunny Monday!

February Client Closet of the Month - day 7

Client Closet of the Month is where an established client receives a complimentary 2 hour Closet Shopping Service in exchange for her/him posing in outfits I put together of what they already have in their closet.

Carma, it has been a pleasure working with you over the last 6 or so years, and will continue to be. I have watched you have become confident in choosing things that fit your body and style well. You are beautiful, have great style and an amazing personality! Thank you for sharing yourself and your wardrobe with everyone this week!


Here is an outfit that is totally out of Carma's comfort zone as she had never done leggings with a shorter dress. Yet oddly enough all of this was in her closet. She bought these items because she liked them but then just had them hang out in her closet. No more! Does she look amazing or what!

Dress - Express, Cardigan - Cato's, Boots - from Piperlime

Tank Top, Jacket and Jeans - Express, Scarf - Limited

Stripes, polka dots and embellishments make for a fun and creative outfit.

Rhoda helped me realize everyone has a different style. She helped me to determine my ideal styles which then gave me the confidence to wear the styles I feel comfortable in, fit my personality, and work for my body type. Because she has put outfits together from my closet she has taught me how to think outside of my box. I have been so much more creative with my outfits because of  her. She brought lonely and forgotten pieces of clothing in my closet back to life…she is a true blessing! Rhoda, your beauty radiates inside and out! Thank you so much! ~Carma

February Client Closet of the Month - day 6

Client Closet of the Month is where an established client receives a complimentary 2 hour Closet Shopping Service in exchange for her/him posing in outfits I put together of what they already have in their closet.



Carma loved this dress but questioned whether it works for her. It's super flattering on her figure and looks great with a fitted jacket. It's a longer length than what she normally wears but with her fabulous legs (and the fact that she's always in heels) it looks awesome. I always say "if a trend doesn't work for you, wait for the next trend." This is a length trend Carma can do well.

Dress - Old Navy, Jacket - Express, Shoes - BCBG

Sweater and Jeans - Express, Jacket - Loft

We paired a leopard print sweater Carma has had in her closet for quite awhile and freshened it  up with a newer striped jacket and bright scarf. Layering new and "old" items from your closet gives fresh life to your wardrobe, therefore giving you have a lot more new outfits. Think outside your box.

Top and Skirt - Express, Jacket - Loft, Shoes - Target

There is nothing more springy than a white skirt. Both of these looks have a nautical feel to them without looking like you should be heading out on your sailboat. Carma rarely does flats but loved these bright boat shoes which give her white pencil skirt a very casual feel and is perfect for running errands and everything life throws her way in one day.

Skirt and Jacket - Express, Tank Top - JC Penney, Handbag - Guess

Carma's white pencil skirt is perfect with yellow, stripes and dashes of red and makes me want to pull my white skirt and striped jacket out of my closet. Carma, you look beautiful!
