game day style

I come from a family of Patriots fans - yes, the type of people who say "we" instead of "the team". Huge tailgates, Sundays at the stadium, and wearing snowsuits outdoors for hours among thousands of others are typical for us. But on gorgeous Fall days like the ones we've been having lately, I'm drawn to slightly more fashionable items in team colors.

Other style notes...

How gorgeous is that LK Bennett blue coat? Here's a similar wrap coat in a camel color for those of you who cheer for a team without blue.

These lace-up style booties are a good alternative to the stacked heel style above.

I like to keep a pair of comfy gloves with me in case it gets chilly when the sun goes down.

Her Style: Amanda

Today I'm introducing you to Amanda, my younger sister by three and a half years. A fashion buyer in NYC, she has a unique style that is a blend of current trends and what she likes, trendy or not. On this day, I didn't warn her that I was going to take photos until we got together for lunch. She wore an effortless dress for her upcoming flight back to NYC but threw in some sparkly accessories and her favorite purse.

My sisters and I spent some time in Boston before Amanda headed back to NYC from a busy weekend at home. They accompanied me on my first wedding venue visits and remembered to ask the questions I forgot (that's what sisters are for!).

I'm the shortest of our pack of three, especially when we're all in flats.

On Amanda:
