Date Night

by Tamara on May 18, 2013

There are a few things that are important on date night, two of which are what I wear and getting there on time. I don't like to keep my date waiting so I usually plan what I'm wearing ahead of time. For a nice dinner or special event, a dress is always my top choice and thanks to my new ESQ Movado ESQ ONE™ watch being on time will be a snap. Since the ESQ ONE™ watch is stylish enough to dress up or dress down, I decided to style my navy ESQ ONE™ watch with a fun and flirty red dress and navy heels. Add a red lip and I'm ready to go.

Travel Style

It seems like I'm always traveling – from Charlotte to New England, Charlotte to Alabama, or Charlotte to New Orleans. If I'm lucky, I'm able to book a direct flight, but oftentimes, I have a layover. Sometimes I have plenty of time between flights, and other times I'm running and barely make it before the door closes. I usually have my smartphone in hand to keep track of the time, but that can be cumbersome when I'm also carrying my handbag and carry-on bag. Since receiving my new ESQ Movado ESQ ONE™ watch I decided to put together a look that will make my travel a little easier. My travel style is casual Read More ...

Summer Days

After a long, cold winter, I plan to spend a lot of time outside this summer having lunch with friends on restaurant patios, relaxing on the beach or by the pool with a good book, and enjoying some good food and good music at summer street festivals. I want my summer wardrobe to be cool and comfortable; fun and fashionable and I know that my new ESQ Movado ESQ ONE™ watch will be a summer staple. One summer trend that I want to incorporate with my ESQ ONE™ watch is floral pants. Floral will be everywhere this summer, so I decided to style my navy watch with off-white, green and blue floral print cropped Read More ...

Post image for What I Wore: InstaStyle Week 12

"Is that the dress Kim Kardashian wore?" Black and white dress (The Limited) | Earrings (Tiffany & Co.) I've been rediscovering my love of black lately. This dress is thick which makes it perfect for wearing it during the winter. I wanted to wear this dress one more time before the weather turns warm for good. Speaking of…umm yeah. Spring? It's officially your season, so I need you to shine. One thing that you can't see that I'm wearing in this photo is a fragrance that I'm trying out courtesy of Glamour called curve appeal.* I love a fragrance that smells what I call "sexy sweet" and I have Read More ...

Ford Warriors In Pink

2011,October 28

Since I started the month off with a post about how the NFL was recognizing October as Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I thought I would end the month with a way that I gave my support to the cause. As a blogger and a Glambassador, Ford wanted me to be a Warrior in Pink and recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month by wearing their "Reach for the Moon" t-shirt inspired by Lifetime's Five, an anthology of five short films exploring the impact of breast cancer on people's lives. The shirt that they sent me was designed by Jennifer Aniston, one of the executive producers of Five. This unisex t-shirt is available for Read More ...

What I Wore: Game Day Glam – Carolina Panthers at Atlanta Falcons

2011,October 19

As you know, this past weekend I traveled to Atlanta to see the Carolina Panthers play the Atlanta Falcons in the Georgia Dome. I debated about what to wear to the game–should I wear something that would represent the Panthers (my current home team), should I wear something that represents who I was really cheering for (Cam Newton), or should I wear something to show how I would support the Falcons if I was a Falcons fan? Well, the night before I finally decided that I would wear the common colors of both teams–black and white. I picked a black off-the-shoulder sweater (you can't always tell that it's off-the-shoulder in Read More ...

What’s In My Bag? – Super Bowl In Style Edition

2011,February 2

Hey guys! It's super late and I should be asleep since I have to get up in about 4 hours to catch a flight to Dallas, but I thought that I would film a short video for you guys to say "Hi" and "Thank you" and to show you what I'm carrying in my airplane carry-on bag. I filmed this video just before midnight after I finished packing the last few items for the trip (if I look sleepy, it's because I am. I've been up since 5 a.m.). I hope you enjoy the video and I hope to bring you more videos in the future. (Disclaimer – The lighting Read More ...

Glamour Girl

2011,January 7

This week I received an email from Glamour magazine's Glambassador program congratulating me because I have been chosen as one of their 2011 Glambassadors! How exciting! Many of you who follow me on Twitter often read that I have a stack of magazines on my coffee table or that I'm catching up on my magazine reading.

The first week of each month, I'm always excited to check my mail because I know that my copy of the latest issue is on its way. When it comes, I never read it right away. Read More ...
