Target Style Finds, Vol. 3
Hi everyone! Happy Thursday! Today I wanted to share a few style finds from my favorite affordable place to shop – Target! Awhile back I stated I should really start a “Target Sunday” or something similar since they drop a lot of new arrivals over the weekend. However, they kind of dropped the ball a little on new finds the last couple of months. Spring was great and then Summer finds have been a little here and there. I figured now was a good time to round up all of the items I’ve found recently that are still available – all of which I wear consistently, and I love that…

Casual Style: Pleated Pull-On Shorts
Happy Wednesday! … I think! I can’t keep my days straight! I thought 2020 was the confusing year, but I feel like my brain has left me more so in 2021! Ahh, anyway – I hope everyone survived Elsa that lives down here in Florida. I know she’s now headed toward the east coast, but hopefully as a weak tropical depression. We were lucky here – she was downgraded to a tropical storm before coming into the Tampa Bay Area last night, and since we live much farther inland than our last home (15 miles from the beach) I think our wind gusts were in the 30s and 40s. Certainly…

NSale Preview: My Wish List
Happy Tuesday! Guess what today is?! Okay you probably already know if you follow a multitude of bloggers, but it’s Day 1 of the preview for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! The NSale is by far one of my favorite sales of the year. I’ve been shopping the sale for quite awhile ~ I think I was introduced to it in 2013/2014? Certainly not in its infancy, but I’ve learned to navigate the sale quite well! What is the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale? Essentially, a preview of fall items at a great discount. Will these items pop up again later in the year? Yes, they likely will. But, sizes and coloring options…

Work Outfit: Denim Dress
Happy Monday friends! I hope you all had a safe and fun 4th of July holiday! I honestly don’t love the fireworks (not a fan of crowds and noise), so traditionally we stay home and watch good movies. Mostly for the dogs also since they hate the noise. We watched ‘The Tomorrow War’ with Chris Pratt on Amazon Prime last night – highly recommend if you like action movies! Had quite a bit of humor mixed with action which we enjoy. And covered up the fireworks sound quite nicely! And say hello to my blank wall space! My first ‘blog’ photo in the new house! This wall will eventually have…

Accessory In Style: Raffia Earrings
Happy Friday friends! I hope you’ve had a good week! Today I wanted to share something we haven’t worn in awhile – fun new statement earrings! While wearing a mask during the pandemic, I opted for small ‘huggie’ type earrings. Mostly because at work it was a struggle to keep taking my mask on/off each time I would take a sip of my coffee or water and not get caught on my earrings. We also were required to wear a face shield over a mask anytime we were giving an immunization which added to the earring debacle. I ended up thrifting or donating most of my statement earring collection last…

Casual Style: Dip-Dye Dress
Hi everyone! I wanted to share probably the easiest and comfiest dress of the summer! I love it so much I actually purchased it in a solid color also! This color is actually a dip-dye ‘print’ of sorts – a little bit of an ombre or tie-dye effect. The neutral color makes it easy to throw on neutral/white sandals or sneakers. I dressed it up with some older jeweled sandals (I linked a similar pair below) and some fun jewelry. The armholes do come down a bit on my petite frame so I opted for wearing this bralette which I have in a couple of colorways also and it’s super…

Casual Style: Linen tank + Scallop shorts
Happy Saturday! Today’s outfit is featuring one of my favorite summer color combinations ~ olive green + white + leopard! I love this time of year because the moodier hues start to become more popular (preparing us for fall lol) mixed in with the bright and fun colors giving us that nautical summer vibe! I’m here for it all and love that I can utilize almost all of my closet and still feel ‘in style’! My tank top is a new arrival from J.Crew Factory. It comes in 5 colorways and perfect for summer with a linen blend material. Reviews say it runs large, so I did go down to…

Casual Style: $15 dress! + Cute peplum top
Hi everyone! Saying hello to you from our new home! I’ve been pretty run down lately – this is our 3rd home in 6 years since we’ve moved to Florida (and by that I mean 3rd home of our own…. we’ve stayed in 3 ‘temp’ homes as well – so 6 places in 6 years – eek!)… and anyway, it gets harder with each move. Basically because we accumulate more junk treasures! LOL. Thankfully this new house has a very similar floor plan downstairs compared to our last home, so it was easy to find a place for most of our furniture. Wall spacing is a little different, so we…

Style Under $30, Vol. 11
Happy Saturday! Below is this week’s affordable style post ~ all items below are from Old Navy! They have released quite a few adorable clothing pieces for summer lately and I definitely wanted to share here on the blog! I placed an order last week and will hopefully get it in a few days. Now that we are *mostly* settled into the new house, I will hopefully get to a try on session this week. 🙂 plaid sleeveless top – Both this top and the striped version have the same flowy look ~ perfect for summer and staying cool, but also looking a bit chic! swing dress – I ordered…

J.Crew Factory Style Finds, Vol. 3
Happy Memorial Day! I thought I would pop in before our big move this week – eek! – so ready! Today may be one of my last blog posts for a little while. It depends honestly if the internet person shows up when they’re supposed to… because you know, cable. Lol. They are supposed to come on Friday. I don’t have much faith. We also move on Friday, so we scheduled them at the end of the day between 5-6 pm. In the back of my head I’m thinking… this person is going to want to get their weekend started… and we are likely the most annoying appointment of the…
