These days, loungewear is the new black. If you’re tired of switching from your night pjs to your day pjs everyday, then this post is probably for you. I’ve been looking for ways to up my loungewear game ever since being confined at home. I just don’t feel productive in pajamas. Getting dressed is key […]
Who else is doing a little online retail therapy these days? I’m not going overboard on spending, but I do like supporting my favorite retailers. The good news is that there are some really amazing sales going on right now (scroll down for a list of the best sales of the week). I’m usually shopping […]
Many of you (maybe most or all by the time you read this post) may be living that work-from-home life now that Coronavirus has entered our reality. Since going full time as a blogger, I’ve been working from home for nearly a year now, and I can say that one of the biggest keys to […]
It’s just about that time…I can almost feel a soft cool breeze as it floats over rooftops, bringing with it the scent of spring. I can almost make out the faint twinkle of an ice bucket as a beautiful bottle of pink bubbly slowly forms a thin layer of condensation waiting to be poured. It’s […]
This is that weird time of year where you don’t really know what to wear. I mean, a sweater and jeans in the morning means you’re sweating by the afternoon. #Texasproblems… But something that has been an easy option for me lately is a lightweight sweater paired with a comfy pair of sandals. I’m usually […]
A lot happens here on Cathedrals & Cafes, but in between all these moments is everything I’m posting over on Instagram, and I don’t want you to miss a thing! Hence the Instagram Roundup! This post features some of my favorite grams from January and February, and it allows me to share even more about […]
I am continually impressed with Vionic Shoes and their built-in comfort technology. I wore my Vionic wedges all spring and summer and this season, I am excited to partner with them again. As you know, I love my snake boots, so I was looking for a comfortable spring style in snake as well. This post […]
Happy Tuesday, friends! I hope you had a lovely weekend and are ready to tackle another great week! Now that we are FINALLY out of January, I’ve been thinking seriously about Valentine’s Day. Did you see my recent gift guide post? I love this holiday so much. Not that you can’t celebrate love throughout the […]
Yesterday, I mentioned on Instagram that I feel like I am one of two people during the winter months. I’m either a total homebody who prefers a cozy night in and not having to drive anywhere, or I’m a total escapist looking for any excuse to go exploring. Lately I feel like I’m trying to […]
I never feel as polished as I do in a blazer. It’s like an instant facelift to just about anything. This daily look is about the boyfriend blazer, a great silhouette because it’s longer in the body. It’s perfect for those of us who weren’t blessed with tall genes. Anything that elongates the torso gets […]
Every time I’m in the airport I find myself longing for those days when air travel was a bit more glamorous. Every time I see people sprawled on the floor in their pajamas, drinking a margarita by the yard at 6:45 in the morning, I cringe. Don’t get me started on bare feet on planes. […]
If I could wear boots all year, I would. I love them. It’s almost an unsaid rule that when the temperature drops below 70, it’s boot weather in Texas. I’m only slightly joking. When you don’t get a whole lot of cold days, you’ll take advantage when you can. Today’s post is all about those […]
I have shared my love for James Avery jewelry and handbags with you all before, so naturally I wanted to share a few of my favorite pieces to give as gifts this holiday season. From beautiful Italian leather handbags to handcrafted sterling silver and gold jewelry, there are so many unique items that would make […]
I love a festive holiday party, but figuring out what to wear can be a challenge. For me, it’s really the only time of year when wearing sequins and sparkles is comfortable. I know some fabulous ladies who can pull off these adornments in the middle of summer, but yours truly saves these things for […]
I realized that I hadn’t done a daily look since September – my apologies! These should be the easiest of blog posts, but I think I get too bogged down in Instagramland. Not that I don’t enjoy Instagram as a fun space to share daily looks with you all, but I can’t really share everything […]
Admittedly, this is my first trip to Napa Valley so what I’m packing might have to be seriously edited at some point. For some of the other major wine regions of the world I’ve been to (France, Italy, Spain, Chile) I’ve only ever visited during the summer months. A Fall trip to wine country certainly […]
Happy Friday Eve! I put together a little roundup of 7 affordable fall style trends I’m loving, with a focus on budget friendly options. There’s a mix of price points and as usual the accessories tend to be on the higher side, but I found some really great under $50 options (even when it comes […]
Friday Favorites morphed into Weekend Reading this week, and it features all my current fall favorites. We were blessed with really nice cold weather the past few days, so naturally I’ve been in fall mode. I love it when the seasons change. Just feels like starting over with a clean slate. Well, to be completely […]
I am known as the queen of tote bags around here. Ok, the queen of all handbags, but tote bags are a little bit of a weakness for me. I feel like I have about 9 million totes and I still look for that perfect one that will go with anything, is the “just right” […]
Ever since ordering these snakeskin booties, I can’t stop wearing them. I have other booties in various shades of taupe and brown, but I love the snakeskin trend and this was a way to partake in it without going overboard. They’re pretty chic, no? (side note – I despise the term booties, but I’m trying […]
