Flatlay: Doggie Love Sweatshirt
Well hi guys! Happy Wednesday! I hope you are faring well no matter what part of the country you live in. The literal frozen darkness that has befallen Texas breaks my heart. I follow quite a few bloggers out of the Dallas/Houston area and can’t imagine hunkering down in a tent inside your own home trying to stay warm! I worry for the animals. The children. The elderly. I was so happy to see their weather forecast looks a tiny bit warmer each day moving forward. *moving update: If you’re following our house journey and moving to Tampa, things are progressing! We had an appraisal and inspection last week on…

Casual Style: Spring in Florida
Hi everyone! We had a little warmup down south and I was eager to bring out some new spring items! I hesitate to even use the word “warm” because I know so many of you are under inches of snow and ice! However, think spring break and warmer months to come! My tee and shorts are a new arrival from the one and only Target! I love, love these shorts! Only $17 and several color options to choose from. I was instantly drawn to the leopard print (of course), but have the striped shorts sitting in my online cart and love the solid colors also! The tee has the cutest…

Work Style: Floral Tiered Skirt
Happy Tuesday everyone! I had to think about that one for a second – hard to remember what day of the week it is lol! No new house updates (yet) – we have the appraisal and inspection set for our current home this week. Dreading the appraisal portion since housing prices are elevated right now and hoping we have a committed buyer. Crossing fingers! I wanted to share my work outfit with you today ~ I’ve become a huge fan of LOFT’s tiered skirts for work. Mostly because they have an elastic waistband! 🙂 And that means they are really comfortable. I apologize for the lack of sizing in my…

Casual Style: Puff Sleeve Sweatshirt
Hi all! Happy weekend! (skip farther below if you’re here for the outfit! 🙂 ) First & foremost you might be wondering what’s been going on with the moving saga? …We sold our house in Venice! (well, it’s pending anyway) and went under contract with the new house in Tampa. Assuming this sale contract is good to go and we close on the house in Venice, thankfully the new buyers are allowing us to leaseback the home for 45 days until our new home is finished in Tampa (which should be in April). I’m worried the new house will get delayed due to Covid backorder problems, but worst case I…

Puff Sleeve Sweater + Fun Sneakers
Well hi guys! Whew! The last week has been a whirlwind! Wondering about the moving saga?…. We are moving! Well, hopefully. Long story short – we found a house in Tampa area, I found a job in Tampa (same employer, just an internal transfer), and we put our Venice house up for sale today! Crazy crazy. I say ‘hopefully’, because this is all pending our house here in Venice sells before the new home is finished. I’m sad, I’m excited, I’m nervous, and not sure even what to think! Our house shopping trip up in Tampa was frustrating. Pre-owned homes fly off the market before you can even see them,…

Amazon Dotted Dress
*Warning: Long life update below — skip to the bottom if you just want the dress deets. 🙂 Hi friends! So… it’s been a minute! You all know I go through ‘rough patches’ with work and life in general and that’s when my blog suffers. This was the case the past couple weeks when I worked 7 out of 9 days and my 2 days offs weren’t back to back so no rest for the weary! We are in the middle of travel season down in Florida also, so things are so so busy. Tensions have been high from Covid and politics and just people being people lol. Anyway, I…

Instagram Lately, Vol. 2
Hi everyone! Spring new arrivals have slowly started to trickle in, but January is overall usually such a slow month since it’s kind of freezing even down south near us! Thus, I haven’t had a whole lot of ‘new’ to share on the blog. However, today I thought it would be a good time to share another Instagram roundup! These are #ootd photos, flatlays, and some special sales and whatnot I’ve posted the last week! plaid shirt | similar vest | jeans | taupe bootie option sweater | jeans | flats | earrings hair clip | bracelet | necklace | similar bag blouse | skirt | earrings | hair clip…

Work Style: Winter Skirts
Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing a couple of work outfit ideas with skirts I’ve picked up this past winter season! Sizing is limited on both skirts, but I’ll link other options below ~ most of which are easy to throw tights and loafers/booties on if you live up north! Printed skirts with a little color and/or pattern are so easy to match with a plain sweater also. It’s such an easy formulation to follow: printed skirt + colored/bold sweater with plain coloring. I always avoid ‘boring’ sweaters in the store, but then regret not having them in my closet when I pick up a fun skirt! Outfit #1: This skirt…

Target Style Finds, Vol. 2
Happy Monday everyone! Today’s blog post is sharing a few new Target finds! Slowly new items are starting to trickle in for Spring and I’m here for it! Every year I dive deep into refreshing our home decor after Christmas. Usually it’s just little home decor items here and there, maybe new throw pillows, etc. but this year we will have lived in Florida for 6 years (crazy to think about!) and big items are starting to look a little worn. I’m planning on completing a “refresh” on a lot of our main rooms in the home this year and Target is always a great place to start! While I…

LOFT 72% Off Sale!
Well hello everyone! I feel like I took a little social media vacation. I didn’t post for several days and let my mind hit recharge and refresh for the last week. It felt good! I feel more motivated and ready to take on spring fashion! I thought maybe I should post a ‘2020 recap’, but since I quite posting on the blog for 1/2 the year (and lost most of my content), there wasn’t a whole lot to recap lol. New arrivals are finally starting to trickle in and also are some good sales! Today LOFT is having a 72% off sale for 72 hours! Below are a few items…
