Friday Frocks: Frock Optional
Written by: admin | Friday Frocks

baby rompersThis shouldn’t be news to you, but I love rompers.  If there’s a romper on the rack, most likely it’s going to end up in my closet.  Sure they’re really annoying when you have to use the ladies’ room and not the best choice when going in for a Brazilian, but they are one step dressing (Why do you think babies like them so much?).  Which leads me to my point… Frocks have been getting all the attention.  Rompers are all like, “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.”  Well, fact is, rompers are my Marcia.  And this week, they will be yours as well.

Why Did You Wear That: Unseasonably Short

Who says shorts are for summertime only?  There’s a reason they make shorts in winter fabrics like tweed, velvet, and leather.  They are meant to be worn out in the arctic blast.  Why should denim and cotton have all the fun?  They shouldn’t.  You’ve worked long and hard on those lanky legs.  Might as well show them off… all year long.  Wear your winter weight shorts with opaque or patterned tights, a cozy cashmere turtleneck, and tall boots to take this look from beachside to fireside.  Don’t forget to Follow WhyDid’s winter shorts guidelines though.  There’s a very fine line between sensibly chic and dirty little freak.

Yeah, somehow everything turns into a Smitty and me dance party.  Yes, I am one of those assholes who dresses her dog.  In my defense, he just got a haircut and it’s reached an unbearably cold 45 degrees here in sunny California.  He was shivering today.  What kind of mother would I be if I didn’t put him in a sweater?  Smitty says if you like my outfit and wanna have a dance party with him, try out this similar look below.

Friday Frocks: Stop and Smell the Roses

This spring, fashionistas have been going crazy for floral printed frocks.  I know what you’re thinking, the last time floral prints were in was when Kelly and Donna were graduating from West Beverly High.  What could possibly be chic about decking yourself out in fussy flowers?  Well, actually a lot.  Floral patterns have come a long way from the mid nineties.  My love of florals is unwavering and as you may remember, my favorite dress… er, dresses… are floral printed.  Check out these fierce florals and tell me you’re not a believer:

1. D & G Floral Ruffle Dress, $745, 2. Forever 21 Peek A Boo Dress, $15.80, 3. MINKPINK Darling Buds of May Sundress, $103, 4. Diane von Furstenberg Graca Dress, $325, 5. Anna Sui Watercolor Floral Garden Mixed Print Dress, $425, 6. Nanette Lepore Candy Girl Dress, $298, 7. JOIE Painterly FLoral Balinda Dress $288, 8. Free People Parisian Bouquets Halter Dress, $128, 9. Carin Wester Nakato Shirtdress, $295, 10. Free People Everything Nice Lace Dress, $98

Toughen up your floral frock with chunky platforms and edgy accessories so that you look more like a primrose than a wallflower.

Why Did You Wear That: Pajama Party

pillow-fight

Ever have one of those days where you just wish you could leave your pajamas on and carry on as usual? Sigh. Me too. So, I got to thinking. Why wouldn’t I just leave on my pj’s? I think by now you’re probably well aware how I feel about shorts, so it should come as no surprise that I’ve managed to combine all of these things into something totally wearable. Pair some silky shorts with a slouchy t, high heels, touseled hair and some chunky gold jewelry for a just outta bed look that will have all the boys giving you bedroom eyes.

Why Did You Wear That: Step It Up
Written by: WhyDid | Why Did You Wear That?

sneakers

Dear ladies who wear sneakers on your commute,

I’ve asked you to please stop once.  I am going to ask you again. Consider it an early Christmas present for me? What if I bargain with you?

Okay, well, I have found a happy medium for us.  FitFlop now makes their amazing “workout in a shoe” in a boot style. Looks a little bit like an UGG boot, but that’s better than white sneakers. So for whatever reason you think you need to wear sneakers on your commute- whether it be comfort (ha! beauty is pain, ladies), or a physical ailment, these babies will be not only comfortable, but also somewhat stylish.

They’re not Louboutins, but they’ll have to do. Happy commuting.
