Happy weekend dolls! :) I absolutely LOVE all things lace so obviously as soon as I saw this top I knew I HAD to have it....and also had to buy it in 2 other colors, haha! A girl can never have too many options. This blush pink is such a feminine color and goes well with so many things. Also this skirt from Forever 21 is another wardrobe fave. I've always loved the way navy & pink look together so that was another reason I felt like this outfit would work :). These pictures were made during a little afternoon stroll in my local art district here in Chattanooga :) such a beautiful day, but I'm definitely craving some cooler temps!  

I hope y'all have an amazing weekend!

XOXO,

Plaid & Hats

September 15, 2014
















{Outfit Details}
Plaid top: Forever 21 (not online, cute option here)
Shorts: Old Navy (here)
Fur Vest: Forever 21 (not online, so many good ones out right now! Love this)
Hat: Forever 21 (not online, love this and this)
Booties: Old Navy (mine not online but I LOVE these!)
Bag: Target (here)
Another day, another fall hat! :) I seriously can't stop buying hats (I currently have 4 and counting....). Since this is one of those trendy items, I really don't want to invest a lot, so luckily I have found some adorable ones at Forever 21 and Target. The one I'm wearing in my OOTD is from F21 & it was only $10 (!!!!!) in stores! I literally bought it just a couple of weeks ago, and even though there's not a link online definitely check your local stores to see if they have it in stock! Another trend this fall that I'm excited is making a come back is the fur vest. I've ALWAYS loved fur vests (past evidence here & here)! I'm definitely going to be buying a new one this season...I have my eye on the one I've linked above from H&M. And of course, I am still loving plaid! Nothing says fall like a plaid shirt. It's so timeless and classic. I decided in this outfit to transition my jean shorts into fall. Don't be afraid to play with your wardrobe ladies :) it's definitely not completely fall weather in TN yet, but that's the perfect opportunity to play with your summer wardrobe and fall it up! :) 

Thanks so much for reading!

Fall Y'all!

September 12, 2014








 {Outfit Details}
Dress: Forever 21 (not online, love these here)
Hat: Target (exact one not online but very similar here)
Booties: Old Navy (similar here)
Purse: H&M (similar here)
Necklace: Purple Peridot (no longer online, here is Kendra Scott version)


Words cannot express my love for fall clothes. While it is still a bit on the warm side here in Tennessee, I honestly just couldn't wait any longer to start putting together some fall outfits! This outfit is definitely going to be one of my go-to looks this fall. This really is a great way to "transition into fall." A three quarter length dress paired with ankle booties is perfect when the weather isn't too cold...and as the temps start dropping, add tights and a leather jacket and you're good to go. AND of course, to top it off, one of my favorite fall hats. If y'all haven't noticed, these floppy fall hats are literally EVERYWHERE and I'm seriously in LOVE (probably because, as I've shared before, it's just SO Rachel Zoe!). I am definitely going to be adding a lot more hats to my fall wardrobe so stay tuned :) 

Thanks SO much for reading! I really do appreciate each and every one of you who read my blog and leave me comments. It means so much to me!

Roar!

Happy Wednesday!

Hope y'all are having a wonderful week so far. It's no secret that I LOVE animal print. While leopard tends to be my favorite, I honestly gravitate toward ANY animal print. Zebra? love it. Giraffe? Adorable. So it's no surprise that when I saw a TIGER print shirt in Forever 21 I knew it needed a new home in my closet. I bought this shirt last fall but since it's sheer I knew it would be cool enough for a warm summer day. I decided to wear it with my khaki shorts (also from F21) and my new nude pumps (another great F21 find, are you noticing a theme here? haha) for a chic look. I love pairing a longer sleeve top with shorts and heels!!! Here's how my look turned out....

Neon & Flowers

January 16, 2014

Hi lovely readers!

Hope y'all are having a great week! So the look below is one of my favorite outfits lately. I love wearing a longer sweater with tights, my riding boots and a statement necklace. It's so comfortable and perfect for going to class and running around town!! Forever 21 happens to have some great basic sweaters in some really pretty colors. And of course, no outfit is complete without a statement necklace. It always adds just the right amount of personality. I especially love the flower statement necklace I'm wearing in the pictures below! The flowers make me so excited for spring!!! So, on to the pictures! (Also, I know I have 3 different hairstyles in these pics...I just couldn't decide on one, haha!)











 Sweater: Forever 21
Tights: Charlotte Russe
Boots: Frye (HERE)
Necklace: Charlotte Russe 

Also, in other exciting news, I've been trying on wedding dresses. I am SO excited that I think  I found "the one." I'm going to look at one more store...but I know I'm going to compare every dress to this one. For all my readers out there who are married/engaged, what was it like when you found your wedding dress!? Leave me a comment and let me know! 

Thank you so much for reading!!! I hope y'all are having a fabulous week! :)
