We decided to take a little trip up to the mountains during my last week of maternity leave.  I am seriously anxious about leaving my baby boy and heading back to work, so a getaway and a bit of fresh air was just what I needed.

Broncos Game Day Gear II

How ’bout them Broncos!!!  7-0 and no signs of slowing down!

Now that football season is in full swing and Sundays are spent in Game Day Gear, I thought I’d share some covetable items for the stylish Broncos fan.  See my selections for everything you need to complete your blue and orange wardrobe so you can cheer your team in style.

Don’t let the NFL’s “Be Clear” Policy hinder your outfit!  Grab a Lucite clutch or Bloomingdale’s little clear bag to pass through security like the true fashionista you are.

And although we wear orange and blue in our household, these pieces can easily be translated to show pride for your team.

Still… GO BRONCOS! #PFM

XO, Libby

This past weekend was full of beautiful Colorado weather, the changing of leaves, and snuggling up on the couch with vino, movies and football.  When Scott and I did venture out, I thought it only fitting to don a great patterned dress and my favorite equestrian boots.

The Perfect Jean Shorts

I’ve been searching and searching for the perfect jean shorts and at last I’ve found them!  Forgive me for singing Etta James’ classic (usually reserved for the first dance at weddings) in my head, but finding the perfect jean shorts is what summer dreams are made of.  (Also a quick shout out to Queen B, for her amazing rendition of the song!)

Jean shorts are the quintessential summer staple and now that I’m in the second half of my twenties, I’ve decided short shorts shouldn’t be taking up prime real estate in my closet any longer.  Not to say I don’t wear Daisy Dukes from time to time, but my goal is that any new shorts purchases should be of a longer length than to which I’ve been accustomed.  The fact that I’m nearly 5’10” can make shopping for shorts of a decent length even more of a chore.  Height can easily turn any pair of shorts into booty shorts, and that’s something I’m mindful of with my self-imposed style rule.  But after months of dressing room try-ons and deliberation I’ve found them… the Joe’s Jeans Ex-Lover Short.  These shorts are the perfect amount of distressed, an ideal length and a bit stretchy which makes them extremely comfortable.  And although I just found them and it’s already mid-July, better late than never.  They’ll be on heavy rotation for the rest of the summer and for seasons to come!
