Finding the perfect crop top

July 12, 2018

  Let’s talk crop tops. Can we agree they are definitely in right now? I mean, girls are basically making their own by cutting up old (and new) t-shirts. There are so many different types of crop tops, that I honestly can’t get enough! I’ve been wearing them all summer and I’m not sure I’ll slow it down too much when fall and winter hit. I might be cutting up my sweaters too… kidding. Anyway, I have to admit I…

Mini dresses made for walking

June 27, 2018

Guess what, We’re leaving for California in 15 days! It may not sound super exciting to some of you, but it means so much for my husband and I for several different reasons. A, we’ve never been to California… what? Yeah I know. We’re planning on landing in LA and then driving up the coast to San Francisco, making a few stops along the way. We’re excited to spend time at the beach (obviously) and check a few “places to visit” off…

High waisted shorts: styling for the perfect fit

June 13, 2018

I’ve been on the market for good summer shorts for a while now and I just found my luck last weekend. I wanted shorts that looked sexy but didn’t show too much skin (butt cheek) and that weren’t too tight but tight enough so that again.. sexy. Catch my drift? I’ve always had a hard time finding the perfect pair for my body. My thighs are not the thinnest so a lot of the time the shorts fit too tight…

Summer essentials from Target

May 30, 2018

Target has been my go-to store for years now, and if you’ve been reading my blog, you know that’s very true. I used to shop at Target a lot when I was in college. They carried everything I needed for my dorm, makeup, and other toiletries, but honestly I didn’t really shop their clothes. I wasn’t crazy about the brands they carried at the time and felt that for the price, I could find something trendier at Forever 21. Fast…

breathable pants for summer

May 22, 2018

I have a confession.. I hate shaving my legs. And I have a feeling I’m not alone. Don’t get me wrong though, I love showing some leg and wearing shorts, skirts, and dresses. It’s actually my favorite part of summer! But inevitably, on some days I just don’t feel like complying with the rules of summer. I want to wear pants. I just don’t feel like showing skin. Lucky us, there are plenty of solutions available, from ripped jeans (like ripped…

A flirty date night look

May 12, 2018

Date nights with my husband are my favorite part of the week. I love getting dressed up, deciding on a dinner spot, and having long conversations over wine. Lately we’ve been opting for a movie night at Alamo Drafthouse or Studio Movie Grill. Call us lazy, but we love being able to eat in front of the screen. They’ve just opened a new Alamo Drafthouse minutes from our house, so guess where you’ll find us most weekends.. there! Last weekend we had a movie…

Comfy is the new black: How to wear sneakers with (almost) anything

May 9, 2018

Actually, comfy is always in for me. I love being comfortable as much as I love wearing heels and I don’t think I’m alone. I’ve noticed recently that it’s not weird to see a cute dress or skirt worn with sneakers. Or a work outfit with sneakers. The trick is in how you make the opposites, if you will, attract. Trust me, they don’t always attract. It takes the right amount of dressy at the top to match a worn out…

Stripes & Summer

April 26, 2018

Stripes have been calling my name lately. I actually just realized my last few posts have been about something striped! I don’t know if it’s the comfort of knowing you can turn a simple outfit into an effortless piece of work just by adding a striped blazer or pants or just the fact that stripes are a classic. You can’t really go wrong. I have a few favorites currently in my closet and these pants are one for sure. They have…

how I wear my wooden watch: 3 simple ways

April 13, 2018

Wooden Wrist Watch You may have noticed I’m not one to own a whole lot of watches, or accessories for that matter. I like to keep my outfits as simple as possible and if I do incorporate accessories, they are usually the center of attention. I have been wearing my Jord watch non stop and have been pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to pair with my outfits! I have the Cassia model, which I love because the face is a pretty…

Feeling Blue stripes (2 looks)

April 11, 2018

It’s April 9 and 50 degrees here in Texas. I’ve already put all my winter clothes away so I’m left with the light jackets I keep in my coat closet all year. So naturally.. I started thinking about summer and all the glorious sunlight that comes with it. I’ve always wondered if I love the sun because I was born in August.. is that weird? Anyway, I’ve also started thinking about our future travel plans, which hopefully involve a cruise…
