Gingham and Ruffles

I’m making changes…to my closet. Over the next year, I plan on shifting my focus to more basics and items I will get a lot of use out of, trimming the excess. This does not mean boring. Basics do not have to be humdrum and this whole idea excess excites me. Basics are pieces you will wear over and over again, dressy or casual, everyday. My only caveat is the shoe department. I will not give up my love of shoes, and my love for finding perfect pairs.Read More

Fuzzy Gray Sweater

It’s still winter just about everywhere, even on our vacation. It felt a lot like cold weather season for the desert – which made me so happy I brought this super fuzzy gray sweater along for our travels. It was my ‘coat’ all week long. Super soft and cozy, plus a great neutral gray meaning I could wear it with everything. Once we got back to the brutal ‘real’ winter (i.e. freezing temps), I still found myself reaching for it – it’s that soft and dreamy.Read More

Off the Shoulder White Top

This is not your boring white button down. It is the cutest off the shoulder white top with black straps, and it is perfect for summer. I love it with high waist black jeans (the pair I have are super comfy and stretchy) for an all black and white classic look. It’s under $12 and you can find it here (it’s also linked below!).Read More

Vintage Inspired Sandals + Embroidered Tunic

Loving everything about these vintage inspired sandals and embroidered tunic. Not loving the current weather situation, but I was able to wear them both last week. The sandals are ridiculously comfortable with a cushioned footbed. It feels as if I’m wearing flats – but I am wearing the cutest addition to my closet. They have a block heel and extra tred (instead of a wood bottom), which makes them so easy to wear. I love the retro studded detail and black leather. They are on sale for under $56 (find them here) and also come in a natural tan color, as well as a slip on version without an ankle strap.Read More

Pink Pleats + Orange

Pink and orange is a combo not all of us would reach for, but it looks SO good together, and creates a gorgeous color blocking effect. This skirt with pink pleats is my favorite item for spring, and my silky orange top will look great paired with so many other outfits (+ it’s under $20!). My skirt is lightweight and has a silky feel too, and only $34.99. It is beyond gorgeous – both the color and the silhouette is flattering on just about everyone. Pleats are classic, and I’m so happy to have found them in this beautiful hue.Read More

I’m Freaking Cold

Sometimes I like to state the obvious, and this is one of those times. I’m freaking cold. It’s February and the excitement of impending snow storms and thrill of snow has worn off. The fun of getting bundled up is annoying (which is an extreme understatement). At least I have a super cute sweatshirt to say what I’m thinking so I don’t have to go around silently screaming “I’m freezing my booty off.” It’s under $8 and ships free.Read More
