13 Genius Ways to Dress Like It’s Fall When it’s Still Totally Hot Outside

In Dallas there’s an old urban myth that we love: supposedly the ac bills go up every year in the fall because the ladies are that dedicated to wearing fall fashions as soon as they hit the racks at Neimans.

Nailing The Perfectly Loose Low Bun

This is a look that we love and have seen all over Pinterest, but when it comes to creating the “effortless” low bun on ourselves, well… things aren’t as easy as they seem. If not executed properly the low bun can just plain sloppy, or worse, like something out of American Gothic. Stylist Erica Rae knows a thing or two […]

14 Robes That’ll Make You Never Want to Get Dressed

We all have our obsessions: some gals are beauty buffs, others are total bag snobs, and of course, we all know a jewelry junkie or two.
