Lace & Denim
May 13, 2014
Hi dolls!
Hope y'all had a fantastic weekend & are having a good start to your week! So last week I had a mini shopping trip around town and found the absolute CUTEST denim shorts at Old Navy. I bought 2 pairs (a light and dark denim) and to make it even better they were both on sale!! To me denim shorts are a staple for the spring/summer. I just love the way they can be worn with literally anything (I mean, if I'm being honest, I'll be wearing them with cowgirl boots to a few country concerts this summer)! :) The ones I'm wearing below are a lighter wash which I think is even more summer-y (just made that a word! lol). ALSO, I love the look of denim with lace. This lace top was also on sale for only $10 from Charlotte Russe & can be worn on or off the shoulders! I love versatile tops like that! When I wore this last Friday, I felt like off the shoulders was more fun! Here's how my OOTD turned out...

Thanks so much for stopping by and reading! I appreciate y'all so much!! :)

Happy Friday y'all!!
Boy do I always love seeing Friday roll around! I'm so excited because I'm headed to see my brilliant & beautiful cousin (& not to mention one of my dearest BFFs) graduate from grad school! She's one beautiful smartie pants and I'm really excited to spend the weekend celebrating with her! :) So check back in a couple of days for some pictures & a weekend recap!
So, have any of y'all ever bought something a few years ago and then find the exact same item in a different color & just HAVE to buy it? You may have an inkling you have something very similar tucked away in your closet at home...but you're still thinking you HAVE to have it because it's a different, newer, BETTER color!? Am I the only one? Well this happened to me this week when I was shopping. I found this really super cute blue dress at Ross...thinking to myself, oh this looks SO similar to the green one I have at home...but I don't care because, you guessed it, I LOVE the color! So when I get home I dig new blue dress' twin out of my closet...to find that they are indeed the exact same dress...I'm talking the same brand and everything. I guess I know what I like...and at least I got a new color, right!? Anyway, I do love this dress. It's cotton and SO light weight and perfect for a hot spring/summer day! Here's how I styled it...
I hope y'all have a fabulous weekend!! Thank you for reading loves!

"Business in the Front, Party in the Back" (no, I didn't get a mullet!!)
May 8, 2014
Hi dolls!
I have always loved peplum tops and I am SO excited to see so many in stores this season! :) I recently bought the one I'm wearing below at TJ Maxx (seriously been finding THE cutest tops there lately!) for.....wait for it....$5.50! Yes, you read that right, FIVE dollars and fifty CENTS! What a steal!! From the front it looks just like a simple white peplum top but from the back there is a super cute cutout! I just love tops/dresses that have super cute backs. Reminds me of the saying about mullets...."business in the front, party in the back." Kind of like this shirt, no!? Also...I can never get enough yellow. It just screams spring! Here's how my look turned out...

My New Favorite Necklace!

Hi darling readers!
First of all I wanted to say thank you SO very much for reading my last post! :) I am so so happy to be back blogging!
So y'all, I have to make a confession. I am slightly obsessed with statement necklaces. I have been for a long time now, and there is no end in sight to my love for them! All I have to say is good thing they are still in style. But seriously....take a t-shirt, add a statement necklace, and BAM your outfit goes up on so many cute levels it's not even funny! So, with that being said, I've been looking for a crystal statement necklace for a while that would go with anything but my search ended when I found the super cute "Crystal Cluster" necklace from Purple Peridot! If y'all haven't checked them out before, don't walk....RUN (you know, virtually) over to their website! Here's how I styled my necklace...

Hi dolls!!!
Long time, no blog! :) Oh my goodness, it feels SO good to be back! Blogging truly is one of my biggest passions, but sometimes life gets in the way. Writing has always been therapeutic for me, but for various reasons I haven't been able to spend the time on this blog these past few months I have so desired to. However, it's springtime and one of my favorite fashion seasons....so here I am, ready to be back to blogging full force! :)
For my first post, I wanted to share with y'all an outfit I wore last Friday night. So Thursday night after one of my BFFs & I got our nails done and we went on a run (ummmm that might deserve its own blog post. I quickly discovered that I would rather wear wedges to work out my calves out than run. Seriously y'all, I can't run!!! haha) but anyway, of course we had to go shopping after! AND of course I had to buy this shirt after I tried it on in TJ Maxx. I just loved how feminine this top is with the pink, sheerness, & the eyelet pattern. PERFECTION! I paired it with my fave Marc Nelson jeans & white wedges. Then I topped it off with some more feminine flair...bows & pearls! Hope you like my "girly" outfit! :)
