Welcome to my new site, Straight A Style! I hope you like the new design and name. Today is the sixth and final week of Blogger Nation, and I have loved every minute of it. These other five ladies are so fabulous. We are going out with a bang and featuring spring neutrals with LuLu*s. Neutrals have been such a hot trend this season, whether it’s black and white, all white, blush, or any of the other great combinations. You know…
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.…
It’s week five of Blogger Nation! This has been such a fun collaboration to take part in. I don’t know about you, but I think these other women are amazing! This week we are partnering with Tobi to share some of our favorite spring looks. I choose a blush skirt you already saw here and these awesome scalloped shorts. I’m loving pastels for spring. This was my first time working with Tobi, and they really have an awesome selection, so…
Remember that time I wore a Forever21 jumpsuit I bought on sale for $20 to a black tie event? I mentioned last week that Russ and I were invited to a black tie event for his work. It was my first time at such a dressy outing, so of course I was excited/nervous about finding something to wear. I’m not the best in social situations (hello introvert). I figured I at least needed to get the outfit right, so I…
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…
Keeping it short and sweet today. Russ and I had a fun black tie dinner last night that I can’t wait to tell you about next week, but right now I’m sleepy! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend and a Happy Easter. I just bought both of these pieces at my local Forever21, but I cannot find either one of them online. Don’t you hate it when that happens?! Top: Forever21 (similar) // Skirt: Forever21 (part of this set)…
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…
I’ve been itching to wear this J.Crew skirt and shirt ever since I snagged it on major sale in Kansas City. I love the flounce of the skirt. When Oklahoma had a warm day, I put on some sunless tanner and went for it. Hope you all are headed into a fun weekend! Shirt: J.Crew // Skirt: J.Crew // Purse c/o Donna Bella // Heels: (old) // Coat: Forever21 (old) // Ring c/o Purple Peridot // Cuff Bracelet: Rustic Cuff…
