There’s nothing I hate more than leaving the house in a super cute outfit, then getting hit with rain showers and either have to bundle up in a bulky rain coat or end up completely drenched trying to remain chic. Thanks to one of our favorite Dallas bloggers, Cathy Williamson, we have now found our weather solution – She Reigns!
She Reigns was the creation of Cathy Williamson in 2012 when she realized the need for trendy rainwear. She Reigns was created with a variety of coats perfect for every style! My sisters and I fell in love with the “Alex“, named after her daughter who is by far one of the coolest girls we know.. Have you met The Bumbleblogher yet?
One thing I admire most about Cathy is her strength. After moving to Dallas and starting her blog, The Middle Page, Cathy was diagnosed with an aggressive triple negative breast cancer. Rather than letting that get her down, Cathy continued on as her fashionista and fabulous self and documented her fight on her blog. Cathy hopes to educate women through her line about the importance of self-examinations, as TNBC can affect women as young as in their 20s or 30s! Though this aggressive form of cancer is more likely to recur than other forms of breast cancer, TNBC responds very well to treatment – hence the importance of regular self-examinations!
We absolutely love what She Reigns represents, as well as all of the styles included in the line! See how we styled the Alex coat below to match each of our personal styles and visit Cathy’s line (as well as her blog) online to learn more and snag one for yourself!

For my weekday look, my go-to is a pair of my favorite DL1961 skinny jeans, a roomy blouse, and a pair of comfortable ankle boots perfect for running around between meetings and appointments. Though I occasionally find myself sporting a pair of flats, a great pair of chunky-heeled boots are my favorite to give me that “put-together” feel, while giving my feet a break from high heels.

DL1961 Skinny Jeans // Blouse (similar) // Pearl Statement Necklace // Gucci Belt // Ankle Boots (similar) // Hermes Bracelet // David Yurman Bracelets // Sunglasses // Stud Earrings // Judith Ripka Ring // Estee Lauder Lipstick in Neiman Marcus Red c/o

The shirtdress has always been a timeless classic, so we believe this is one item every woman needs to invest in for her wardrobe. Finding the right shape and fit is very important to keep a feminine look, which is why we love these classic shirtdresses by Kiki Lynn. Kiki Lynn, created by Kimberly McKinley in the summer of 2014, is an American lifestyle brand that represents a timeless and effortless style.
Since the three of us all have a similar style with our own twist, we each styled this classic in an individual way that best fit our personal style. Blair wore her
shirtdress with a
white pea coat,
burberry scarf, and flat boots for a casual weekend look to roam around the city while being comfortable and chic! Janie paired
her dress with Christian Louboutin pumps and a neverfull tote for a trendy office to happy hour look. Ellen layered an oversized gray sweater with booties and a statement necklace as an edgy twist on the
dress, and later wrapped the sweater around her waist for a sportier look.
We absolutely love the versatility of this dress, and definitely consider it an item everyone needs in their closet! Visit the
Kiki Lynn website to shop the collections!
See how we styled this one dress, FOUR ways below!

Being the girly-girl that I am, I can’t think of a better way to add a little sass to any outfit than with feathers! Feathers are popping up everywhere this season from a dash of feather-trim on a tee to a full on feathered skirt. Feathers are so feminine and flirty, and instantly make any outfit more fun!

My go-to look on a cool Fall day is always a cozy sweater, jeans, and a classic pair of boots. LL Bean boots have been a casual style staple of mine ever since my days at boarding school, and I love pulling them out of the back of my closet as soon as the temperature takes that first big drop! Though they are perfect for snow and rain, that doesn’t stop me from wearing them on a perfectly sunny yet chilly day around the city! Check out my classic Fall look and shop the links below to shop my outfit:
