Today’s look of the day features a must have dress designed by  Terra Jo of Havea Lolo . This is the perfect summer traveling dress! It doesn’t wrinkle, you could pair it with flip flops or heels and be ready for beach or club! We love this dress paired with our new jewelry designer Drina .

A close up of the today’s look of the day jewelry! Funky Junk designed by Drina , a necklace created with performance bicycle tubes and a recycled vinyl record dog tag!! We love the resourceful creativity!… Read more!

Heading to Alaska

Leave a comment

Hello!! Well, I’m going from a rainy week in Colorado to ALASKA and I leave tomorrow! Let me tell you, it’s been a fun challenge to figure out what I should pack! I can definitely eliminate the bright pink pumps, the feather headdress, and mini skirts! I’ve opted for lots of leggings with fun tees and sweaters and of course, super cute mud boots. I could wear plain ol’ boring mudboots, but why when I can wear fun bright floral mudboots!

I also always geek out about what to pack in my airplane bag. Which books should I bring, which little handbag should I bring, which wallets would be the best for traveling.

I’ve settled on bringing:

-The Richest Dad in Babylon

– Even Cow Girl’s Get the Blues

– A brand new blank journal for my Alaska adventures

– A sarong that can be used as an airplane blanket, scarf or blanket to sit on on the beach

– My headlamp

I’m getting so excited! 24 hours from now, I’ll be on a plane to Anchorage! And I feel so good to know that Fashion Denver will be watched by my business mentor Kathy Bacon, founder of Dress for … Read more!

To my fellow 4 Eyes: A discount for you at SEE

Leave a comment

Hello to all of my stylish fellow 4-eyes!  In the past, I’ve found that not all eye shops carry cute frames and as somebody who loves fashion and wants to be stylish with my glasses, I finally found the perfect place to shop for all of my eyeglass needs… SEE!!

Located in Cherry Creek North, this eye boutique, complete with eye doctor, has a HUGE collection of stylish glasses for all different types of personalities.

I spent about 30 minutes trying on 20 different pair of glasses and finally settled on a pair that suited me! One of the things that is mildly annoying is always changing from regular glasses to sunglasses when I go outside and to remedy this annoyance, I got the transitional lenses and LOVE them!! No more carrying around 2 pairs of glasses. I just step outside and VOILA! My eyeballs are protected from the sun!

I’m also a huge fan of great customer service and Angela and Heidi were so much fun to work with. They were patient with me in narrowing down my favorite glasses and were super helpful. Also, my eye doctor was awesome!  All in all, I had such a fun experience … Read more!
