Questions Answered…

I get such sweet comments from you guys as well as great questions regarding whatever I might be wearing, or chatting about in my posts. Here are a few that I have come across:

Q: “I Just saw (500) Days of Summer and would like to get Sugar Town (its not on the soundtrack) any idea where I can find it?”

(I recently wrote about Zooey Deschanel and how much I love her and her voice, especially the song Sugar Town that she sings in her latest movie.)

A: I actually found it available for purchase—without having to buy the entire album—as a bonus track through iTunes. Although, I love all the tracks, the whole CD is great!

Q: “I am in love with your jacket. Do you mind sharing where you got it from or what brand it is?” (Regarding the blazer shown here.)

A: I actually can’t remember when I got this jacket, but it is from Banana Republic and I have had it forever. I didn’t wear it in a casual way/style for a long time, and then one day, I feel like I pulled it out of my closet and sort of rediscovered and saw it it with fresh eyes. It is now a key staple in my wardrobe!

Q: “When you tucked your dress in, how did you avoid the bunching under your pants or shorts of the extra fabric? I always have problems with bunching when I try to tuck dresses into my bottoms.” (Regarding the striped dress shown here.)

A: A few people have asked me this, as well as where I bought my striped dress. It is originally from H&M but I bought it at Buffalo Exchange. The trick, if you are going to tuck a dress in as a top, is to use one that is already form fitting and on the tighter side so that it hugs your body. That way, when you slip on shorts or a skirt over the dress, it doesn’t bunch up underneath.

I hope this was helpful, and please,  feel free to email me with questions or comments!

Happy Tuesday!

Reader question: Where can I find bright tights?

I recently had a reader post a comment asking where she could find fun bright tights that were affordable, would fit well and look great. (I personally love bright tights and think they look amazing on, not to mention I have an entire bin designated for own my colored tights.) Whether or not you order them online or buy them in stores, you can’t ever really try them on, so to make sure you buy the right fit, just read the sizing chart, which is usually located on the back of the packaging. I would also go into the store, like Forever 21, Filene’s Basement, American Apparel or H&M if you have them in your city and check out the selection. Sometimes websites don’t always list everything that is in the actual shop.  To see more, click here to see all the colors of the rainbow from ASOS’s collection. And, click here to see fun ways to wear them!

Here is a roundup of some of my faves.

In response to my last post on the fantastic Giovanna, a reader asked how she could copy this glorious look. So, I dug around and managed to pull up some items at reasonable prices that resembled G’s original outfit. Of course it is not exact, but hopefully it will inspire you to don these daring yellow pants and pumps!

(Items listed clockwise)

Gap: Back-zipper sweater, $26.99 (on sale!)

J. Crew: City-fit wool herringbone Portman pant, $49.99 (on sale!)

P.S. Isn’t this girl just a breath of fresh air? She looks so bright and friendly. Plus, I love her leather skirt, and of course her grey t-shirt.
