Outfit Ideas, Vol. 1
Hi everyone! Today I’m starting a new section on the blog called ‘outfit ideas’ – not a fancy name, I know, but wasn’t sure what else to call it! You all might remember Polyvore from several years ago — used to be a great way to put outfits together using a search engine and clip/post image software. I’m not sure what happened, I think they were bought out? And for quite awhile there wasn’t a good alternative to creating similar outfit creations. Time has passed, and numerous ‘me too’ companies have popped up. I’ve started utilizing ShopLook for my outfits, and the company has improved vastly over the last year!…

Old Navy ~ Spring Dresses
Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! I had the last few days off work and was able to just relax and catch up on the blog, and also on my little side thrifting business. I recently cleaned out my closet and overly purged a ton of items in lieu of our upcoming move, but really only created what I refer to as a ‘death pile’ of things to list and sell – ack! Thankfully I was able to get through about 90% of it and will finish it up later this week. I don’t really have any updates on our move either. We are *supposed* to close…

Old Navy: Spring Dresses
Well hi guys! The weekend is here! Yay! Man, I needed this weekend to finally get here. I’ve worked the last 10 out of 13 days, which doesn’t seem so bad, but they were long shifts, early days, and my days off were busy with house stuff or it was crap weather. Just doesn’t feel like I’ve had time off in forever. It really pays to have 2 consecutive days to rest and regroup. I’m so happy some more spring new arrivals (that aren’t bright colored joggers and sweatshirts lol) are finally rolling in! I’ve really been on a dress kick lately. Maybe it’s that #Covid15 talking, but dresses are…

Work Style: Print Mix
Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing a work outfit I wore the other day ~ went a little old school with print mixing! My skirt is a new arrival from J.Crew Factory which I picked up in this floral print and also in leopard! I got lots of compliments and my coworkers said I looked I belonged in a French cafe… I wish! The key to a good print mix is incorporating the same base color in both top and bottom. My skirt has a black base, so I chose a black/white striped top. I chose sneakers (again), because guys… I can’t wear flats anymore! Like I’m pretty sure I can’t…

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…
