Rich Girl

For over a decade, I lived in the bastion of Ivy League preppiness in Princeton, NJ. 

Actually, it really wasn't the students who perpetuated that myth as much as the adults who lived in the community year round. Despite my punk rock musical tastes, I actually like more classic clothes. It wasn't always the case, but the older I get, the less trendy I am. 
One of my favorite stores since my late 20's has been Talbots. I always felt instantly elegant once I walked through the red doors on Nassau St. 

While I've never been a lady who lunches, I did (and still do) have to look good. I like clothes that are machine washable, timeless and can mix and match. My local talbots in Sioux Falls recently closed, and imp not going to lie-I shed a few tears. 

My recent beat the polar vortex outfit is from there. 

The Little Man is in the sign language group at school and we're performing at a local church.

 It was brutally cold out, but that doesn't mean I've got to look bad. This outfit-case in point.  

I have a pair of camel side zip trousers, along with a brown turtleneck and a really awesome sweater with embroidered flowers. I love the fact that all three pieces work we'll together, as well as separates. The statement necklace is from Target, and I've got on a great pair of Etienne Aigner shoe-booties. Warm and stylish. Keeping that Princeton vibe alive!
