Me & my poncho

Two years ago I purchased this vintage poncho on Etsy for $15. One of my best purchases ever! Inexpensive, super cute, and versatile. No matter how big I get during pregnancy it still fits.

I've always liked ponchos -- the sweater kind, not the plastic rain kind. They have a hippie chic appeal and look really cute with jeans tucked into boots.

Shorts with Tights?

tights with shorts

I'm having a love/hate with this look.

I love the way it looks on this model showing off clothes from Madewell -- but she has long, thin legs. Oh and that pale yellow cardigan -- I want!

My friend Melody, also long and lean, has worn short with tights and heels and looks amazing. But she looks amazing in everything.

On the other hand, I hate the look because it isn't easy for just anyone to pull off. Namely, me.

Fall Wish List: Ruffled Sweater

October 21, 2009 at 11:15 AM by Cafe Kim - Comments (3)

ruffled sweater

I've been coveting a ruffled sweater all fall, and here's why: You could be wearing the most boring, ragged ol' jeans and a t-shirt, but if you slip on a pretty ruffled sweater—Voila! Instant hotness (and I'm not just talking about your temperature).

I love this Italian Merino Wool Ruffle Cardigan in woodsy brown from Victoria's Secret, $78, (except I'd, ahem, wear it with pants). But I've found some less expensive options as well...

I went through my closet this weekend, trying to move the summery items out of the way, and once again looked at my small skirt collection. The last time I cleaned out my closet, I got rid of a few skirts and left the ones I thought I'd wear. But I haven't worn any of them except for one. 

It made me realize...I hate skirts.

Cute Couple Halloween Costumes

halloween guide

Since my husband and I have been together, we do some sort of couple Halloween costume theme every year. We've done scary Halloween looks -- I was a dead car hop; he was Bloody Holly -- and we've also done other looks, too.

A few years ago, I was a mental patient who escaped in a straight jacket and he was my arresting officer. We both had bruises and scratches painted on our faces, though I know on me it looks more like something out of an 80s video than bruises. Hee hee.

I love plaid. And I don't care if it's in style or out...I think it always looks good. Kind of mod, kind of punk rock yet can be preppy too, always smart, and with a vintage feel.

When I saw this plaid coat at Top Shop, I thought oh please come in my size.

faux leather jacket for fall

Photo From Urban Outfitters

Ordinarily, I'm not a fan of the leather look, but for some reason I'm coveting a short faux leather jacket for fall. I love this look—pairing the "tough girl" Urban Outfitters Moto Jacket ($98) with a sweet little floral dress.
