What you might not know about me is I don't really like to take much time getting dressedespecially for the everyday.
I want as much style effect with as little time investedas possible.
Getting Real ... and the Beauty of AccessoriesTruth be told
most days I am more interested in accomplishing what I need to dothan spending time primping.
I also spend much too much of my daynot changing out of my work out clothes.
So I have found having a daily uniformsuits my lifestyle.
In the winter here in SoCalit is consisting of my Jag jeans and my cashmere sweater.
By adding in my accessoriesI can quickly and effortlesslytake two basic pieces from the look above ...

I had been searching for a great new bag and ankle boots for so long...and trying to choose between investment piecesand couldn't make a decisionor part with that much cash :))
So I bought these boots and bagat Target on a whimbecause I needed them that day.
And now I know I don't need to search any further.They serve their purpose very well.
