Colorfast Apparel has created the ultimate clothing item for all us nerds -- a hoodie with headphones built into the drawcord, which connects directly to an iPod/mp3 player via an audio input jack in one of the pockets! This hoodie is not only really well made, comfortably soft, and awesomely functional, it's also machine washable! There were many times when I wanted to listen to music only to realize that I forgot to bring earphones. This hoodie makes listening to music so convenient! Read more...

I've really been liking polka dot things lately, so I was excited to see this espadrille wedge that's navy blue with white polka dots. I actually visited these shoes at my local Macy's on three separate occasions before deciding to try them on and buy them -- that's how I know I really wanted these sandals! The design is called "Saffire 2" by Ivanka Trump (she teamed up with Marc Fisher Footwear to design her shoe line). I'm very happy with these comfortable 4 1/2 inch polka dot wedges! Read more...

I started noticing that a lot of the clothes that I end up buying at Therapy stores (an indie clothing boutique in the San Francisco Bay Area) can also be found on ModCloth.com. I was really happy to find this out since I try to write about things I like that are available online in case my readers want to get them too. :) This week, I got this taupe and cream squiggly-striped Bow Front Stripe Frock at Therapy -- it's called Sand Sculptor Dress on ModCloth. I love the round bow collar! Read more...

Nordstrom is having their Half-Yearly Sale for women and kids going on now through Sunday, June 5! I stopped by my local Nordstrom store on the first day of the sale (Wednesday, May 25th) to look at some shoes. I ended up buying two pairs of heels -- a black polka dot "Apple Pie" heel from Poetic Licence and a black patent leather "Shimmer Sandal" by Michael Kors! Read more...

Scarves are my favorite accessory, because they instantly add color, texture, and/or pattern to an outfit. They also keep you warm! I got this colorful pom pom scarf from ModCloth.com. It's unique and pretty sizable at 52 inches by 52 inches! The pom poms are actually quite bigger than I expected when I saw the picture online (they are about an inch in diameter), but I love how they stand out and are so colorful. This scarf really livens up a simple outfit! Read more...
