April came and went like a breeze and I’m just now recovering from the busy weeks! Not only is it one of the busiest months at work for me, it’s also my husband’s birthday month. (I think I care more about this than he does!) I love celebrating him and I never pass on the opportunity to do so. This year I planned a surprise birthday party at our house with a few friends. My heart was bursting with joy…
Animal prints are in and are here to stay. Honestly, though, I feel like they’ve always had a place in my closet. I have a cheetah print oversized jacket/sweater, a few leopard & cheetah print shirts and even cheetah print pumps. I love how a good animal print piece can instantly spice up an outfit. One thing to keep in mind, however, is not going overboard with prints. It’s easy to get carried away, or to end up looking like a Jersey…
Hello there! We’re back from vacation and honestly the ten days we spent there were not enough! We started our trip in Los Angeles, then drove up the coast to San Francisco, making a few stops along the way. The views of the coast from Hw 1 are surreal and honestly I can talk about it all day long, but I wanted this post to be specifically about what I wore during the trip.. so let’s get that started! ps.…
Let’s talk crop tops. Can we agree they are definitely in right now? I mean, girls are basically making their own by cutting up old (and new) t-shirts. There are so many different types of crop tops, that I honestly can’t get enough! I’ve been wearing them all summer and I’m not sure I’ll slow it down too much when fall and winter hit. I might be cutting up my sweaters too… kidding. Anyway, I have to admit I…
Target has been my go-to store for years now, and if you’ve been reading my blog, you know that’s very true. I used to shop at Target a lot when I was in college. They carried everything I needed for my dorm, makeup, and other toiletries, but honestly I didn’t really shop their clothes. I wasn’t crazy about the brands they carried at the time and felt that for the price, I could find something trendier at Forever 21. Fast…
Date nights with my husband are my favorite part of the week. I love getting dressed up, deciding on a dinner spot, and having long conversations over wine. Lately we’ve been opting for a movie night at Alamo Drafthouse or Studio Movie Grill. Call us lazy, but we love being able to eat in front of the screen. They’ve just opened a new Alamo Drafthouse minutes from our house, so guess where you’ll find us most weekends.. there! Last weekend we had a movie…
Stripes have been calling my name lately. I actually just realized my last few posts have been about something striped! I don’t know if it’s the comfort of knowing you can turn a simple outfit into an effortless piece of work just by adding a striped blazer or pants or just the fact that stripes are a classic. You can’t really go wrong. I have a few favorites currently in my closet and these pants are one for sure. They have…
It’s April 9 and 50 degrees here in Texas. I’ve already put all my winter clothes away so I’m left with the light jackets I keep in my coat closet all year. So naturally.. I started thinking about summer and all the glorious sunlight that comes with it. I’ve always wondered if I love the sun because I was born in August.. is that weird? Anyway, I’ve also started thinking about our future travel plans, which hopefully involve a cruise…
Have you noticed blazers popping up everywhere lately? It seems like they’re always in or at least not forgotten and I would say they’re definitely a staple piece and a must have in every wardrobe. I have a few blazers that I must admit are not designer brand, but have definitely survived all of my closet Spring cleanings. They are my ride or die when I need a cute cover up for work or something to keep me warm on those unpredictable weather…
Is the avocado toast just another trend? I really hope not. It’s a quick, healthy and super delicious meal for me, whether I make it for lunch during the week or brunch on the weekend. I add all sorts of toppings to it and it’s always perfect! I wanted to give you a few tips on how to make this fancy treat at home. Let’s make this trend last, just don’t overdo it because I don’t want the poor avocado farms…
