What a Lions fan wears on Super Bowl Sunday

Even though my Detroit Lions didn't make Super Bowl 50, I will definitely be watching – it's still football after all. Throw in the always tear-jerking national anthem, some marketing genius and a half time show that's sometimes so bad it's good; it's an event I don't miss!

I must have ESP (Extra Style Perception). I fell in love with this suede fringed skirt from an estate sale and featured it in a post last August. Now I’m seeing fringe everywhere!

Now that fans across America are mourning the temporary loss of football, I’m offering some team spirit to get you through the off season. Below is his and hers inspiration on how to commemorate your favorite squad by sporting your team’s colors with flair.

The temperatures have dropped and the snow has fallen in Northwest Ohio, which means I’m continuously reaching for tall boots and cozy sweaters.

4th of July Style

Looking for something to wear this 4th of July weekend? I've pinned some fun and festive outfits on my newly created Pinterest board appropriately titled, 4th of July Style!

I collected BBQ casual, work appropriate, fancy party and laid-back get together outfits on my pin board.  Some of my favorite looks include a blue patterned dress accessorized with red heels and a wide red and white striped skirt with a navy nautical print shirt.
