Purse-onal Preference

September 4, 2014 by styledbykdg

“Good name in man and woman, dear my lord, Is the immediate jewel of their souls:  Who steals my purse steals trash; ’tis something, nothing;  ’twas mine, ’tis his, and has been slave to thousands;  But he that filches from me my good name  Robs me of that which not enriches him,  And makes me poor indeed.” ― William Shakespeare, Othello This bag is a modern take on the ladies who lunch crocodile handbags of the ’50s. The minimalist gold hardware […]

August 15, 2013 by styledbykdg

I have extolled the virtues of my favorite season – autumn – many, many times on this blog. One of those virtues is that it is perfectly appropriate to bust out the suede in autumn. Scrumptious, warm, buttery, rich suede. Today I am highlighting two suede bags that will be in my autumn rotation. A heartfelt thanks to The Average Girl’s Guide for finding and displaying them first!! Have you checked out her blog? You should, the girl’s got taste!! […]

Corporate Summer Attire

July 18, 2013 by styledbykdg

I have the utmost respect for women working in the corporate world and battling the heat and humidity. Your best weapon is the fabric of your suits. Cotton, linen and seasonless wool blends breathe best on the body. The trick is to still keep that polished silhouette. Tahari Sleeveless Dress & Ruffled Jacket – Nordstrom $169 (not as foofy as it sounds – more streamlined than you would think) Sometimes you may need to shop in the suiting separates to find […]

July 9, 2013 by styledbykdg

Summer and weddings are ubiquitous. Often summer weddings are held outside and while that means beautiful scenery and photos, it also presents some style challenges for wedding guests.

Go sleeveless for when the sun is high. Dress in Blue Iris – ModCloth […]

Ageless

April 8, 2013 by styledbykdg

In styling a lot of time is spent focused on your body shape. This is the essential foundation of learning how to best dress yourself. However, the next important step is to take in to account your age. That is not to say that women of a certain age have to don a muumuu but rather seek a cut and color of a style that speaks to age aesthetic. I will be the first to admit that I have tried […]

Spring Shoe Trend – Espadrille Wedges

March 13, 2013 by styledbykdg

I love espadrilles. The term espadrille is French and derives from the word in Occitan language, which comes from espardenya, in Catalan. In Catalan it meant a type of shoes made with espart, the Catalan name for esparto, a tough, wiry Mediterranean grass used in making rope. (Source: Wikipedia) To me, they are my stylish mother circa 1980s pairing the espadrilles with her Yves Saint Laurent boatneck tee in the summer. Seville Wedge Espadrilles – J. Crew $128 LAUREN Ralph Lauren […]

Impulse Purchase

March 1, 2013 by styledbykdg

Being a style blogger has been an interesting journey. I have pretty much been writing to my known audience. As time has gone by I have begun to notice an uptick in my readership – folks I don’t know. So I started to develop posts for a wider audience. It is a bit unsettling to realize that people you don’t know are listening to what you say and perhaps taking your advice. I hope I am living up to the […]

More on the Same Theme

February 20, 2013 by styledbykdg

I tend to stick with themes. I’ll wear the same jewelry combo over several days. Call it lazy. Call it comforting. Call it OCD. Sometimes that “consistency” shows up on the blog — like this week for instance! Anytime I attend a wedding I become a soggy, sappy mess remembering my own. It was truly perfect. I would not redo anything about it. I just kind of wish the whole wearing multiple wedding dresses had been a thing back then. But it was not […]
