• My Newest Obsession-Feathers!

    Jul 30, 2021

    Happy Friday lovelies!

    I want to start off by saying that I'm incredibly thankful for all of your kind, loving and encouraging words both here and on Instagram in response to Monday's post. It really means a lot to me to have your support as I continue to move forward from everything. 

    Would you know that one of the few things I desired to do while recovering was shop?! Lol. I didn't go overboard, but it was a great escape to stimulate my creativity again. One thing I found myself repeatedly gravitating towards was feathers. I not only purchased these beauties, but this denim jacket with the feather hems. I love the light, airy feminine touch feathers add to an outfit, making it a beautiful detail to add to a summer outfit. 

  • Let's Get Personal!

    Jul 28, 2021

     

    Happy Wednesday lovelies!

    As I've gotten older, I've come to appreciate the versatility of dainty pieces. They're easy to layer when going for a bolder look and also practical for serving as stand alone pieces for a classic, chic, everyday look. In my opinion, it's even better when they're personalized and hold a sentiment. When Rellery reached out to me with an opportunity to collaborate, I loved that they not only offered subtle-bold designs to enhance the everyday outfit, but they offered personalized options to simple pieces, too! 

     

  • An Open Letter

    Jul 26, 2021

     

     

    Hey guys!

    It's been a very long time since I've last posted. In all of the 9 years I've been blogging, I've never gone this long (9 months) without posting and today, I want to talk about what's been going on. 

    Let me first start off by saying, I've missed you all so much. Blogging hasn't only been a creative outlet for me, but it's also been an avenue for me to truly connect with so many of you, many of whom I call friends, as we've followed along each other's journeys in growing families and other highs, as well as lows.

     

  • Sage Green & Stone Grey Color Combination for Fall

    Oct 05, 2020

     

    Happy Monday friends!

    Fall is my favorite fashion season, as it is for most based off conversations I've had with many of you! Understandably so, as it's much more fun and exciting, creatively  speaking, as you can really explore different color and texture combinations you wouldn't otherwise be able to (at least comfortably, lol) throughout the year. When we think of fall, we typically think of rich and saturated jewel tones, in addition to various shades of orange and yellow, inspired by foliage. However, green can still be embraced though it may not necessarily scream fall. I love the look of sage green in particular paired with a more faded, stone grey shade, both of which I'm wearing today. I think the combination makes for a great transition from a warmer season to a cooler one, especially since both have cool undertones.

     

  • 10 Blanket Scarves That Will Transform Your Outfit & Keep You Cozy

    Sep 28, 2020

     

    Happy Monday friends!

    One of my favorite fall/winter functional accessories is a blanket scarf! I've created a bit of a collection throughout the years and whenever I'm stumped with what to wear, I'll typically throw one on. They're so good to wear with a turtleneck and jeans or even with a dress. I also love that they're versatile in the ways they can be worn. You can wear them looped around your neck or as a poncho. As you can see, the possibilities are endless and now that our lives are a bit more leisurely in routine, even when working from home, they're, I feel, all the more essential. If you're the only one in the house who's cold and therefore can't turn on the heat, throw one on. Going for a quick errand run, throw one on. 

     

  • Styling Colorful Snakeskin Boots

    Sep 25, 2020

     

    Happy Friday beauties!

    Animal prints are trending big time this fall/winter and what I love is that it's not only leopard print we're seeing. Don't get me wrong, you all know I love leopard print. I mean, I wore a leopard printed midi skirt on Monday! It's just nice to see variation and I love  that designers are having fun with the animal kingdom. We're seeing snakeskin taking a close lead and zebra and cow hide, too. What I've learned in all the years I've blogged and paid close attention to trends, when something is trending, we see variations and I love having selections to choose from that offer versatility! Who doesn't, right?! 

  • How to Style Mom Jeans if You're Curvy

    Sep 23, 2020

     

    Happy Wednesday everyone!

    Aside from leggings, jeans are the most versatile and absolute wardrobe staple every woman must own. I don't use bold letters often, which proves how much of an essential they are, lol! What's awesome is that these days there are so many different styles to choose from, that will help enforce your personal style or allow for you to have more fun and versatility when creating your daily outfits. The mom jean is one of the styles we've seen gain popularity over the past few years and understandably so, they're more relaxed in their aesthetic than nearly any other style, yet they can easily be dressed up. Though they're quite popular, they may cause the curvier woman to shake her head, NO! Mainly because the fit is notably tighter in the hip and thigh regions, which can pose a challenge or concern for one who's curvy in those areas. I'm here today to give you some tips on pulling them off successfully if that's you! 

     

  • The Flattering (and Versatile) Skirt You Need for Fall!

    Sep 21, 2020

     

    Happy Monday!

    I'm sure many of you have heard that midi skirts are the way to go come fall and that they're chic and versatile, too. While I do agree with all of those claims, I will say that a basic midi skirt isn't always flattering for all body shapes. When you're bottom curvy, a satin or basic midi style can cling and essentially not flatter at all. I'm rolling my eyes at you hip dips!

     

  • My 3 Favorite Fragrances

    Sep 14, 2020



    Happy Monday Friends!

     I've been doing a lot of thinking of how my style, interest, and priorities have changed immensely. I thought this would be the perfect time to share one of many things I've found to be important to master by the time you reach your 30s, finding your signature scent. All throughout my 20s I experimented with a lot of perfumes from various brands, both high and low end, and have managed to narrow it down to three that I love and highly recommend: J'adore by Dior, Flora by Gucci, and Guilty also by Gucci. I've worn all of these fragrances over the course of about 10 years and have found myself repurchasing and reaching for them more than any of the others I've tried.


  • Chic and Comfortable Labor Day Weekend Outfit

    Sep 04, 2020

    DRESS: Similar | HAIR CLIPS | SHOES: Similar | BAG




    Happy Friday friends!

    This weekend marks the unofficial end to summer; it's Labor Day weekend! Though it does look and feel very different this year for obvious reasons. It typically serves as the last hoorah before heading back to school, resuming normal work schedules and finishing up the last of our vacation plans. Since much of us have been home, due to Covid, there really isn't much of a transition happening. However, that doesn't mean we can't enjoy the holiday and those who have resumed work or telecommute will (hopefully) have a long weekend to relax a bit.
