So you’ve probably noticed that things look a little different around here. The talented (and very patient) Whitney Vass  of Heart + Arrow Designs helped refresh the site and give Lou What Wear a whole new look. What do you think?! I’m still working out some of the kinks from organizing all the content but I’m hoping this new layout makes it easier to find everything. I’m also hoping to introduce some more locally focused content to the site so stay tuned for that.

If you just type in louwhatwear.com – you’ll notice that you go to a new website format. I’m still working on figuring out how I want to structure everything there (wish I was a better plan ahead type gal but i’m just not), so you may see some changes there. But keeping the blog format was really important to me, so you’ll be able to access it by either clicking through to the blog area or just bookmarking this link .

Bear with me while I get everything figured out and if you have any feedback, thoughts, suggestions – let me know. I definitely want to hear what you all think.

Real quick on the outfit… this stripe top is a new favorite. It is a tiny bit cropped which is a bit frightening at times (I left bare midriff back in 1996 where it belongs for me) but paired with slightly high-waisted options, it’s just right. I’ve worn it with skirts (like when I wore it with this white lace one), jeans, under blazers, by itself… I could go on. And did I mention I’ve only owned it for like two weeks. Clearly I’m obsessed. The rest of the goodies here are old favorites which is what this top is going to be in a few months.
