Printed ankle pants seem to be a hot trend that doesn't seem like it is going to fade anytime soon. I have been on the fence about this style since ankle pants usually do not flatter my shape; however, I do like the way the print on these pants adds movement to an outfit and the how the ankle length showcases the shoes. What are your thoughts? If you are on the fence, too, and looking for some inspiration for how to wear ankle length pants, I recommend you check this out. Also, the Today show featured the Loft ankle pants and the mixing of prints.

One last thing, if you are interested in possibly winning some cash (and looking for some great, stylish, hilarious reading, too) you might want to check this out.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Are you looking forward to the Super Bowl on Sunday? What's your favorite part - the commercials, half-time show, the actual game? I have been somewhat disappointed with the commercials the past few years, so I hope this year there are some great ones! These might be a few years old, but I still think this commercial and this one are pretty funny.

As far as the game, I am looking forward to it - although, I wish my team was playing, oh well, maybe next year. Any predictions on who you think will win? I have not decided yet.

Enjoy the game! And, have a great weekend!

Piperlime - Two Budgets

Today I thought I would continue with my discussion of Piperlime. One thing I like about Piperlime is their selection of goods at different prices points - budget friendly and investment pieces. On the site, they do a nice job of grouping items under "Girl on a Bugdet" and "Worth the Splurge".

One other great thing...Piperlime offers free shipping both ways, which I love because I can order things and try them on a home and if they don't work, I can easily return them for free! Also, Piperlime is really fast about processing returns - probably one of the fastest. Enjoy! Have a great weekend!
