Jeans, jeans, jeans. White jeans. White jeans. More white jeans. I love them both, but I wanted a few other pants alternatives in my closet. This is one of them. These coral pencil pants fit like a glove, and this top I'm wearing doesn't look like anything special, but touch it, and you'll know. It, too, fits like a glove, with just the right about of lycra to hug your curves. That's the only way to pull off stripes without them … [Read more...]
Wear This: Blush and White
You would never know I love pink, blush, whites would you? No way! I never have anything pink or blush. Or white tops. {insert sarcastic laugh} I think I figured out that I wear the colors that I feel look best with my skin and hair color. Maybe not always, but at least I think they do! Insert blush jeans. Where have you been all my life! And blush and white off the shoulder top? I think this was a match made in heaven! Last week … [Read more...]

Lots and lots of sales. Labor Day Sale shopping might be on your radar this weekend. So I thought I'd be your personal shopper and share … [Read more...]

Celebrity Style: Nate Berkus
Ahhh, Nate Berkus. Since the first time he made an appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show, I've been a fan.

What To Wear: Fur and Flares
To me, fall is synonymous with jeans. Jeans and boots. Jeans and sweaters. Jeans and vests. Jeans pretty much are our staple. And just because jeans are jeans are jeans, not all jeans are the same. Straight leg, skinny, torn up, and now we're seeing the comeback of the bootcut and flare. And pair that with the cooler weather, bring on the furs, especially vests. Glistening in the sun, feeling casual and … [Read more...]

What To Wear: Island Style
You don't have to GO to the islands to bring that island feel right at home where you are. I stumbled across this little white dress while on my recent Target run this weekend. One of many we all make, right? It's the most lightweight little thing you can imagine. I feel like I just kinda threw a sheet over my head, put a rope around my waist and neck and off I go. Seriously, this versatile number, paired up with this hat … [Read more...]
What To Wear: Elegant Dinner Party
"Less Is More" is one of my favorite fashion mottos. Especially when you have fabulous accessories and shoes that have detail on them, let everything be simple and let those pieces do all the talking. Looking for a classic "Audrey Hepburn" elegant dinner look, here's something I suggest. I paired a simple navy dress with pink, two colors that look beautiful together, and let the details on the shoes and the earrings give the little extra pop I … [Read more...]

Fashion Trend: Rompers and Gladiators
Finally, gladiators. I can remember wearing my gladiators 2 years ago and literally getting stares like I came from some other planet. Now, I'll be one of many sporting this look, because for me, nothing has changed. I still love em. This pair is a snake print, which to me seems a bit interesting and even a bit more "for my age" perhaps? Pair them with shorts. All kinds of shorts. Black shorts, jean shorts, white shorts. Today, I've … [Read more...]

Now that spring is officially underway, that means spring cleaning and when it comes to our homes, it doesn't mean change the furniture every season.

Target Truth
I came across this video the other day on my Facebook as I was scrolling on my phone, but passed it by, as I do so many. Less than a few hours later one of my best friends sent it to me in a text, along with some fun emoji smiles and winky eyes. I opened it and have been laughing hysterically ever since. If you follow me on Facebook, you might have seen it on my wall, so forgive the double share here. It was too good NOT to share again. In … [Read more...]

Because I think I'm a self proclaimed expert at this shopping thing. {wink!} I recently came across this INCREDIBLE amazing skirt from Free People on one of my recent visits to Nordstrom Rack. I wasn't looking for a skirt, especially a pink, fluffy, tulle cotton candy skirt. … [Read more...]
Spring Decor In The Home
We are officially into April and that means spring has FINALLY arrived.

Target Retro Striped Dress
