Something that has been taking me by surprise lately is my new found love for bodysuits. I’ve never really cared for them. I think in part because they’re fitted and I prefer looser fitting tops and you’re basically wearing a bathing suit as part of your outfit.
Read MoreI’m learning I have a love/semi-hate relationship with teddy coats. While I love them because they are so cozy and warm; they are definitely a no-go when it comes to wanting to pack them for travel. They basically take up your entire suitcase.
Read MoreI wanted a more casual vibe for meeting a friend for brunch so I pulled out my new stealth concealed carry leggings from Alexo Athletica. I’ve typically kept my outfits with my concealed carry leggings more on the athleisure/daytime side and mainly because both of those leggings have that workout vibe. I’ve wanted to wear my signature leggings out at night with heels but the reflective stripes always stopped me because I didn’t want it to look like I was wearing workout leggings on date night.
Read MoreEach year I semi-dread while at the same time look forward to SHOT Show. Mainly it’s the packing and outfit planning that I dread.
Read MoreIt’s officially winter so I’ve been opting for my HKVP9SK a little more and also sticking to my weekend uniform that is warm…hoodie, puffer vest, and converse. And I’m pretty sure you don’t need to see that outfit over and over.
Read MoreIt’s easy to succumb to the winter lifestyle of piling on thick heavy layers. After all, it is cold and depending on what mother nature has in store, probably snowing. Personally, I don’t want to leave my house when it’s like that
Read MoreI definitely broke out a few favorites with outfit I wore a few weekends ago. My Modern Vice boots, my Blank NYC waterfall jacket, a stripe tee, and of course La Colombe coffee. Not very exciting but very predictable.
Read MoreI’m kind of shocked at myself that I’ve waited so long to invest in a high quality, warm, and over-sized cashmere scarf. Maybe waiting isn’t the correct word; because I was never waiting for anything. I just never gave it a thought. I have plenty of scarves but none come close to how warm this one is
Read MoreI can’t even begin to describe or tell you how amazingly cozy this jacket. I have to stop myself from wearing it around the house - it’s that cozy. This style jacket has been dubbed a ‘teddy bear coat/teddy coat.’
Read MoreIn my second concealed carry look for the holidays, it’s all about the sequin skirt. And what makes this one even better than most skirts is that the waistband is elastic which provides some extra room for your self-defense tool.
Read MoreWhen there’s a slight rise in temps, I’m taking every opportunity to ditch the coat because I know there will be plenty of those frigid days in my future. If you saw my Old Navy video, you know that i mentioned that this vest wasn’t the thickest.
Read MoreIt’s that time of year again for all the holiday parties and get togethers. It’s one the rare times of year that you’ll find me in sequins, velvet, and anything else that makes me feel festive and puts me into the holiday spirit. I really love jewel tones this time of year especially in emerald and ruby colored.
Read MoreIf there is a color that I’m not really a fan of, that color would be brown. I’m also not a huge fan of bright colors even though I do wear them time to time but honestly, I prefer neutrals and mostly black. I guess brown is like most colors - so many varying shades so maybe I’m using brown loosely.
Read MoreWhen all else fails just throw on another layer. I believe that’s the unofficial motto of carrying concealed. As many of us have transitioned to Fall and some even to Winter weather, something you will hear throughout the concealed carry community is something about how they love this season because of the extra layers.
Read MoreThis is about as Fall as DC has been so far or at least from what I’ve been able to see. We’ve had so much rain that the leaves just didn’t really turn into the pretty shades of amber and red. Instead, they just turned brown and yellow. Possibly my two least favorite colors.
Read MoreThere are many times when I’m out all day and I don’t have time to stop back home to change for evening plans. While those days aren’t my favorite, just because they make for a long day, sometimes they can’t be avoided.
Read MoreHey there, friends! I know I’m a little behind with my concealed carry round up especially considering it’s November and in one of these looks I’m in shorts. Oh well.
Read MoreI always feel a little self-conscious when I wear black and white stripes in something other than a t-shirt. A few things come to mind…jailbird, referee, and Beetlejuice. Maybe that only seems fitting since Halloween was yesterday but I know with this blazer I’ve got some options for next year. LOL
Read MoreOkay it’s official, I need to be cut-off…probably from coffee but you’d have to pry it from my cold dead hands. But seriously…from cardigans. I kind of feel like a drug addict lately when it comes to them. I can’t stop buying them.
Read MoreI’ve been on the hunt for a good menswear style tweed-esque blazer for a few seasons. I love the structured and polished look of them as well as the fact that they can easily be made more feminine or masculine depending on how you style it.
