Some days I wear leggings and barely any or no makeup and others I wear a black tie formal dress. Most days with work, weekends, and mom life it is somewhere in between, and truthfully, I am thankful for the balance. I try to show all of that here on the blog – the reality that is life. I am one of those people that loves to get dressed up when the occasion calls for it, and next weekend the…
You all, I am obsessed with this beautiful green mini dress! You may remember I shared that ruching was going to be a trend this fall in new ways. Well, I love the ruched detailing on the top part of this dress. It is so flattering. I also love how the bottom drapes and falls. It’s so perfect now and would also be a great holiday party option in the gorgeous green shade with the redish flowers. I paired it…
I am loving this tweed sheath dress styled with my bow blouse. When I got it, I knew it would be the perfect pairing! My exact blouse and neck tie/scarf are super old. I’m not even going to link the old post where I have styled them before because I am pretty sure I would be embarrassed by the photos. 😉 I will say, having a silk type blouse with a button front and collar along with interchangeable bows is…
Bringing you a fun work wear Wednesday post today! Have you ever thought about leopard for work? It’s a bold print that I think we often shy away from for more polished, professional settings. However, this adorable leopard midi skirt changes that. The length and looser fit, make it prefect for work (and other settings)! I am a leopard lover and always love different ways to wear it. The print is especially popular this fall. This skirt has pockets (how…
Accessorize in Style and Function with O-Venture The name O-Venture might ring a bell as I have posted about them last year. They reached out to me about a collaboration, and I readily agreed as the idea of a key ring made for moms really sounded appealing. Fast forward almost a year later, and I still use the key ring everyday. It is one of the most well used and most functional things I have ever been gifted in my…
I love when I can share a fun and modern fall work outfit with you all. I know we all need a little work outfit inspiration sometimes, myself included! These paperbag waist pants are too fun! When I tried them on, Russ even commented about how cool they were. He rarely says much about my clothes anymore, so I’ll take that as a win! They are a bit longer, and I didn’t love where they hit on my leg to…
How beautiful is this watercolor dress?? I love the vintage feel of the style and colors. So fun! I hope you all are having a nice, relaxing long Labor Day weekend. I love having an extra day with my little family. We didn’t have much planned this weekend other than a fun dinner with friends on Friday night and lots of football watching. We’ve enjoyed taking it easy. Watercolor Dress…
This is the second part in this related series about shopping and my budget. I decided to break it into two parts because it was hard to share about how to shop on a budget without sharing what my budget actually was as a fashion blogger. I did that in my post here. If you didn’t read it, it’s worth looking back at. The answer just might surprise you! I am pretty budget conscious because everything I spend takes away…
When I did my poll on Instagram asking for post topics, one of the questions I was asked was how to shop on a budget. Today I am here to deliver on that question with my thoughts as a fashion blogger. I’ve posted about this exact topic before here. It’s worth a read because nothing has really changed for me. This will be part one in a series to fully answer because it started to get long. I’ll share a…
Fall Transition Look – Dark Florals One of the biggest trends for fall 2018 is prints! Whether animal print in the form of leopard (even in different colors), zebra, or dots like dalmatian, plaid, or floral, you can pretty much guarantee you will see bold prints this season. I have always been a floral print lover, so it is easy for me to jump on the bandwagon with this particular part of the trend. In fact, dark florals have always…
