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

Cold Shoulder Eyelash Sweater

It was a great Saturday in Northern Michigan – the weather was warmish and sunny, and the fall colors were gorgeous. My husband, dog and I took a little walk, and this cold shoulder eyelash sweater was so cozy paired with jeans that feel like leggings and my slip on winter booties.Read More

Flower Applique Bag + What’s In Mine

I love the shape of this bag, but what sold me is the gorgeous flower appliqué strap. Not only is it the prettiest, but it turns this tote into a cross body and it’s also detachable – I can put it on any bag I want. At under $130 (originally $200+), it’s a great buy. It’s neutral color make it so versatile and I’m finding myself taking it out and leaving my usual black bag behind.Read More

Romper + Kicks

This romper + kicks look is the ultimate in luxe for less and luxe in terms of soft. When I tried on the adorable romper I thought “did I grab this from the pajama section?” It’s so comfortable, it seems like it should be reserved for sleeping, but no – it’s a daytime romper, perfect for summer days, trips to the pool, and time at the park.Read More

Lace Off the Shoulder

I’m embracing all the lace and all the off the shoulder tops I’m seeing this spring. My latest find is one of the sweetest and is so comfortable for under $25. I was completely surprised where I found this top. I was actually running past a store, and heard the top calling my name, so I quickly ran in to check if what I was seeing was reality. I loved the structure, quality and price, and when I tried it on, I realized it’s super flattering.Read More

Cold Shoulder Ruffle Sweater

Spring Sweater

I’ve been wearing this spring sweater pretty much non-stop the past week. If you must know, I do own two (ivory and black) and I have washed it. It washed beautifully on delicate and an air dry. I’m sure it’s not technically a spring sweater, given it’s on sale on top of it’s sale price for under $53 (through Sunday), but it is going to be my spring sweater since we are in the 20s and about to get more snow.
