Mother’s Day Gift Guide 2018

May is here and Mother’s Day is just around the corner, just in case you needed a reminder ;) May is one of the most hectic months of the year for me, coming in close, if not passing December. We have school concerts, a dance recital, a wedding, Mother’s Day, end of the school year […]

Denim Refresh

Denim is an essential part of every wardrobe. One that can be worth every penny when you take the time to find those pieces that have the perfect fit and will last for years to come. Some of these include denims that I’ve shared time and again because they’re really that good. I know I […]

True Color Expert

It’s true, I’m now an official True Color Expert! I have been following Maria Killam’s blog (at the direction of my MIL) for years now. I love her timeless and classic, yet bold, design style, and I’ve obviously admired her for her color expertise. I have always loved color in every regard. As it pertains […]

Denim Shirtdress

Hi guys! Sorry for being so MIA last week, but I didn’t end up having much of any extra time in my schedule. I’m planning to put a post together and go into a little more detail on what I was up to last week, so stay tuned for that. In the meantime, I’ve been […]

Lace Utility

Hey guys! I’m in the process of packing up and heading to NY today in order to spend the next three full days studying color! I’m sure half of you are thinking that sounds interesting and the other half wondering why in the world I’d intentionally put myself through that ;) When it comes to […]

Embellished Cargo’s

If you look closely to these images, you just may see snowflakes falling. Or my teeth chattering. Or both. Remind me, March was the one that was to go out like a lamb, right?! I’m more than over my winter sweaters, but thankfully there are so many pretty spring sweater options. This light lavender boatneck […]

Friends & Family: LOFT Sale

It’s Friends and Family at LOFT, ie 40% off the store, and since we’re all friends (and family), I ventured into the dressing room yesterday to check out all the goodies! I admit it was difficult to get excited about all the pretty spring pieces as we watched the hail fall outside, but I did […]

Lady in Pink

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We got to briefly enjoy some summer-like weather which then quickly turned its back on us and walked away, lol. I’ll take what I can get though! Pink is a favorite color of mine, both when it comes to apparel as well as decor in my home. […]

Spring Florals

Nothing says spring more than flowers and more flowers, right? I know you guys just saw this floral bomber jacket here, but I couldn’t help wearing it again. Spring jackets are great because they can become more a part of your outfit than any winter coats can. This is the time of year (in addition […]

Instagram Round-Up

Happy Wednesday, all! As I sit writing this Tuesday evening, I’m finding myself completely distracted as I watch The Crown in the background. It’s a Netflix series (that I’ve found out many of you also enjoy) that requires most of your attention in order to follow along. That’s difficult for me because this is typically […]
