I’m not gonna lie. I would have not bought these pants a few years ago.. I don’t even think I had anything of this color in my closet. I was afraid of the mustard. I wasn’t taking risks and honestly I was unhappy with the way I was dressing. This was when I was in college, by the way, because in high school I won “best dressed” award! Haha! Back then, I wanted to pursue a career in fashion and wear all the…
Lately I’ve been wearing a lot of neutrals.. actually who am I kidding, I always wear neutrals! With the exception of some bold pieces in my closet, everything is pretty much black, white or a neutral shade. With Fall around the corner, I know for a fact I’m going to be speaking neutrals with every outfit I put together. I love wearing black with everything and honestly there’s something devilishly pleasing about wearing white during the fall/winter. With the exception…
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…
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…
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…
It’s Valentine’s day! So it’s pretty obvious that it’s not everyone’s favorite day. If you would have told my naïve 13-year old self this, I would have said, are you crazy? Who doesn’t love Valentine’s day?! Maybe the reason is a bad experience one year, or you just don’t see the point in celebrating love on ONE day, like why not celebrate it every day? While I agree on celebrating love every day and being sweet to your loved ones all year, Valentine’s…
The last thing I think about when choosing what to wear during Fall season is florals or anything that gives me summer vibes, because (probably) like every other person living in Texas, I’m psyched about the leaves changing color and the temperatures finally lowering down, even if it’s just a few degrees. Last week we attended a wedding and something gravitated me towards picking a floral outfit. The pants and blouse have the same exact pattern so when you pair them together…
I love wearing comfortable clothes, but who doesn’t right? I also like to look sharp and not at all like a slob, which can be tough to figure out when choosing what to wear for work. I’m a high school teacher, so as you may imagine, I have to work extra hard to look my age and not like one of the students (sad face). I’m also on my feet all day and running around so staying comfy is a must for…
So I turned 25 the other day and I honestly feel no different, other than the humbling feeling of being alive another year. When I was younger I remember waiting in anticipation for my birthday month to arrive. My mom and brother were great about making my birthday extra special. There was always some kind of morning surprise and then cake for dinner. I remember my mom telling me that when she was younger, her birthday was spent like any other day. I guess her family didn’t see…
I had the sweetest time with a friend of mine the other day. We walked around Bishop Arts Districts (what she claims as her “hood”) and it was just the girl time we needed. She loves photography and obviously has an eye for it cause she took some amazing shots! We drank a few drinks and ate some ceviche at Gloria’s and ended our time there at a favorite spot of ours, Wild Detectives, which you must visit if you’re…
