A Really Good Blazer

Hi guys! If you didn’t catch it on Instagram yet, yes, I cut my hair again. I find myself on a constant cycle of letting it grow out (and by grow out, I mean chin length, lol) and then taking it back to what I refer to as ‘short‘. I get bored easily and my […]

Sweater Weather

Happy Friday! With cooler weather creeping in, sweaters have been on my radar. I’ve only purchased a couple so far, but I wanted to share some of the others that have been catching my eye. There are so many great options, many of which are currently on sale. Speaking of sales, here are a few […]

Styling a Chambray Shirt 4 Ways

When it comes to closet workhorses, my chambray shirt is definitely in the top 5. Every so often I’ll update my go-to, this one being my current favorite, but overall, a denim shirt is a denim shirt. Just as a good pair of jeans coordinate with a million different outfits, a denim shirt can work […]

Fall Layering

There are so many changes during fall. Colors change, leaves fall and temps go from high to low to high to low, day in and day out. Currently here in PA, we wake with 40 degree temps that rise to the 60’s by late afternoon only to rapidly drop the minute the sun begins to […]

A Dozen Helpful Children’s Products

Although this post will prove to be most helpful to parents with young children, it can also serve as a resourceful gift guide to others. I’m talking the types of gifts that parents are grateful to receive and not merely count down the days until the batteries die ;) I’ve realized lately as we’ve done […]

Color Blocked

Part of the fun in dressing for fall is pulling together all the pretty color combos. Navy is a great way to ground an outfit (denim is another easy option), and color blocked sweaters bring in a bold and playful element. You can find them in soft or bold colors based on your preference and […]

LOFT: Try-On

It’s been a bit since I’ve been into our Loft, so I was excited to get in and try some things on. As of now, just about everything is on sale and I’m hoping that lasts a few more days! For reference in sizing, I’m 5’7″ and fluctuate between xs/s, 0-2 in their clothing. I’ll […]

A Madewell Sale

I love when a Madewell sale comes along because, in my opinion, they don’t happen frequently enough. I find some of my most worn pieces from Madewell. Pieces that I keep for years on end. Pieces that are worth the price, but even better when you can score them on sale. Sweaters and denim are […]

Ruffled Flannel Midi

When we think of our fall wardrobe, we typically lean towards all the warm and cozy pieces. Often times, when we head that direction it seems that we loose a lot of the feminine details that are so prevalent during spring/summer. In addition to the beautiful plaid and the great cut of this midi dress, […]

Everyday Layers

Not only am I enjoying breaking out the layers lately, but also getting to play around with all the color combos. I’m not a stickler with the whole no white after Labor Day rule, but I do find that I prefer the warmer off-whites a bit more. They pair a little better with all the […]
