Stein Mart Find

These pants are so cute! No buttons, no zippers no fuss. I bought them at Stein Mart during an insane sale last month. They have a lovely white background with a soft blue paisley print and small crystal detail at the hem.

The white sandals are Marc Fisher at Bloomingdale’s. The crisp cotton shirt is from Chico’s and the blue cotton cardigan is Talbots. Sunglasses are Kate Spade and I have had them forever.

The pants hit just above the ankle and have an open cut out and are embellished with crystals. These pants would look great with a blue or white t shirt.

This is my kind of casual chic comfort. Wishing you a great week ahead.

Stay beautiful and Safe!

Talbots Cape

This beautiful plaid cape from Talbots is special and warm. It was a very thoughtful gift from my mom and I love it! Thanks MOM!

This piece is so well made. It is lined and feels quite substantial, not flimsy. It has a sturdy hidden zipper as well as faux horn buttons that give it a retro feel. It also has deep pockets for that ever present cell phone and my warm suede gloves. I found a lovely hunter green turtleneck at Kohl’s and it picks up the green in the cape perfectly! Wearing a red or yellow sweater underneath would look fantastic as well.

The back of the cape is just as stunning. It flows beautifully without added bulk. Who needs bulk!? Right now Talbots is having a great Red Hanger Sale. Need I say more?

I wish you a Happy, Healthy & Prosperous New Year!

Stay Beautiful,

Beverly

True Blue!

This cute blue dress is from J. Crew and it is the perfect summer dress.  From a Sunday brunch to an upcoming outdoor graduation.  I love that it is a cool cotton and that the cold shoulder trend is still ON!  The shoulder straps lets you wear a bra and small hooks will keep your bra straps from migrating.  Winning!

These plaid flat shoes are also J .Crew and they are so darn cute and comfortable.  The tassel detail makes them unique.

Keeping with the tassel motif I picked these blue and red earrings from Talbots.  Of course you need some sunglasses and I have owned these Kate Spade ones for years!!

I hope you had a terrific Memorial Day weekend and that you had perfect weather for your outdoor festivities....we had tons of HAIL!  Ugh.  Nevertheless, we attended a great party surrounded by good friends, excellent food and plenty of libations.

Wishing you a wonderful start to your summer ahead.  

Stay beautiful!

Chico's Chic!

Hello Fashionistas!

As we transition into spring, a few lightweight pieces to the wardrobe are a must!  I love when we get to spring forward mode because the days get longer and I thrive on sunshine!  I also enjoy that I get to wear some lighter pieces, especially in outerwear. By this time in the season I am so tired of heavy coats! Where are my flip-flops? This Chico's coat is one of my favorites!  The colors are great and it is a lightweight boiled wool.

The coat is colorful in a neutral kind of  way and the stripes are well placed.  It has a hidden zipper and pockets.  I paired it with a Talbots Cashmere Collection sweater and a Talbots "crinkle" scarf.  The hat is one of my go-to's...Coldwater Creek.  The sunglasses are Gucci.  The earings were a gift from my mom and she scored these lovely double sided pearl studs at T.J. Maxx, I get so many compliments on them. LOVE that place!

As you can see this coat is adorable.  Perfect for looking pulled together in a hurry.  It also lends itself to great accessories.  It moves well, its is comfortable to wear and the fabric and details are just right.  Oh, and it has nice pockets for that ever present cell phone and lipstick!

I hope you have enjoyed this post!  Thanks for subscribing and feel free to let others know about my blog.  The more the merrier!

Wishing you a very Happy Monday!

Kate Spade Coat

Is winter over yet?  Not according to the groundhog community!  Which means I will be wearing this beautiful wool Kate Spade coat just a little longer.  The bow in the back makes it so adorable!  One of the benefits of winter, for me, is skiing  and the beautiful fashions...coats included!

The style of this coat is timeless. The details are perfect and you can dress this up with slacks or some black leather leggings.  The ruched black scarf is Talbots and the sunglasses are Gucci.  The denim leggings I live in are from New York & CO.  Kate Spade is truly one of my favorite designers.  Her items are very feminine yet timeless and her quality is fantastic.  This is one coat I will have and wear for many years to come.

Thanks so much for stopping by! I wish you a great week ahead!

Winter Break in Scottsdale

Winter can be a long season especially for us who live in Colorado.  So, I was ready for a winter break and we decided to take a long weekend and visit Scottsdale. We have not been there in years!  We had a dual purpose...the Barrett-Jackson Car Auction and the Scottsdale Art Auction featuring over 400 works of art by the Leanin' Tree Museum collection.  We had great fun.  The Barrett-Jackson Auction was an unbelievable event that takes place over multiple days.  Overwhelming!  However, a must see for car buffs and aficionados.  

This was one of the looks for our gallery hopping and attending the art auction.  The floral top is by @Talbots and I love the lively colors especially in January when things can look a bit dreary, right?  The suit is one I picked up @New York & CO.  It is so comfortable, stylish and I felt very pulled together!  The color was also a factor in my buying it.

The suit is soft and the jacket is NOT structured, so movement is key! The slacks are wide leg and come in a number of colors as does the jacket.  I wore my go-to pearl necklaces, they seem to be the most often seen item in this blog!  You can't go wrong with pearls.    These shoes are so adorable and were actually comfortable to walk around during the Scottsdale Art Auction.  I bought these at DSW, you've heard of them, right??? Ha!  I must mention two terrific restaurants we loved.  You must try The House Brasserie for new American cuisine in a very quaint older home in old Scottsdale.  Within walking distance to everything.  Also fine Italian and home made pasta can be found at Marcellino.  Fantastic food, ambiance and live music that won't compete with your conversation.  

Here are a few photos of the amazing Barrett-Jackson.  It was very high energy and the cars were beautiful as you can see by the look of this   Studebaker!  Next time I'll bring my wallet!
