First, I want to say that the blog revamp should be live on Monday barring any hiccups (fingers crossed)! Woo hoo! Special thanks to Kersten and Carlos from Speakeasy Market Strategies for making it all happen because we all know I couldn’t have. When you are directed to Straight A Style, don’t be alarmed. It’s still me. The web address will be StraightAStyleBlog.com. I hope you will bookmark it. I love anything basic with a twist. In my eyes this…
I feel just like Jordan from Petite Modern in her recent post, “Hey, look I own something with color!” But seriously, when color is as good as this floral dress from Sheinside, it’s hard not to love it. Plus, it’s only $20! I’m a new Sheinside convert. I’ve ordered a couple of things from there recently (here and here) and loved it all. The prices are hard to beat. This dress is a scuba type material, and it’s super comfy.…
I’m so excited to share something I have been thinking about for over a year and finally taking action on. I am going to rename my blog and spruce things up around here a little bit. As you all may know, this blog started out as a personal one and slowly evolved into the fashion blog it is today. Because of this, the URL doesn’t match the name. On top of that, the name has nothing to do with fashion.…
Happy Monday my friends! I hope this Easter weekend left you feeling refreshed and filled with joy after celebrating the resurrection of our Savior. Russ and I went to visit my parents who live in a small town in Oklahoma on a farm. We went to church with them and then spent the day relaxing. It was really nice. I missed getting to see my niece and nephew hunt eggs, but it was good to be with my parents. Today…
When I get something I like, I tend to over-wear it, especially at first. You might recognize my booties and Kendra Scott jewelry from Monday’s post. I just can’t help it. Life in the Arnold household seems to be extra busy lately. Russ and I sort of took a break from our normal routine and hibernated from the world on Sunday. It was so nice to reconnect with him and just have fun. We went to brunch together, biked, got ice…
You all know I love Sage Threads & Co. Kenna, the store owner, is my wannabe BFF, and I have had the pleasure of working with her multiple times. I was thrilled when she was on board for our Blogger Nation series (see week one and two here and here). Make sure you check out the other fabulous ladies’ blogs for the spring pieces they are styling. I picked this ahhhmazing romper. I love the print and the long sleeves.…
This post is a little girlier than my norm: blush, pearls, and light colors. I’m digging it for spring. Truthfully I almost ordered this Tobi skirt in black, but I tried to step out of my comfort zone because blush seems to be such a big color this season. I’m not sure this pale girl should really wear it but whatever. You all have to check out these pearls from DearMissJ. The two colors combined with the rhinestones in their…
So many good things about this post. First, it’s our second week of Blogger Nation. Huge thanks to Leah from Eat Pray Wear Love for the idea and inviting me. You can see week one here. This week we are teaming up with Capwell + Co to share some awesome jewelry. I’m loving my double ring and earring jackets. So many fun pieces. Second, how amazing is this abstract print black and white shirt from Sheinside? It’s only $16, and…
I’m pretty pumped about this Sheinside vest (only $26!). I’m picturing it over dresses, shorts, or basically anything all summer long. I wore it over the weekend with a long sleeve shirt and my OTK boots for dinner with Ashely from Le Stylo Rouge, Mary-Katherine from Gold-Hatted Lover, and Sabrina from Giggle Champ. Talk about a fun evening, highlight of my life meeting those ladies in person. They are even more fun and beautiful in real life than their blogs convey.…
I am so excited about today’s post because it starts a multi-week series called Blogger Nation. I’ll be teaming up with five other bloggers from across the United States every Monday, and we are partnering with one retailer to style their spring pieces. I think you all are going to love it! If you don’t already know these bloggers, be sure to check them out. This week we teamed up with the always amazing Sole Society. I selected their Chandler…
