    Fall Style: Lady Tweed Cardigan + Cap Toe Flats

    Happy September! I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday weekend! Our (new to us… again) city did not have much going on this weekend, so my husband and I took the time to continue to decorate our new home and finish a few projects around the house. I’ve started running again recently and oy! talk about how being sore! I jogged a little over 2 miles my first outing and could hardly walk the next day – let’s just say I’m going to ease back into this one! I used to run 5k races frequently (I applaud those half/full marathon runners – 5ks for me are fun, if I go…

    Striped Mock Sweater – Fall Outfit Inspiration

    Hi everyone! I’m starting to get that fall bug a wee bit – it was 48 degrees this morning! We had a cold front come through this past week and out came a few warm clothes, that’s for sure! Alas, starting tomorrow is a week long heatwave, so it’s right back to feeling like I’m back in Florida ha! That being said, I know the temps will start to dip soon up here in Indiana, so I’ve got my eye on a few cute new items. This mock neck striped sweater caught my eye from J.Crew Factory – I love the variation in stripes and it also has that classic…

  • New life, New state, Blog update + OOTD

    Hi friends! Wow, it’s been so long! The last few months have been a whirlwind. This little blog of mine has been a protected, safe space, and one I’ve loved on for many of years. While this blog has always just been a hobby of mine, and not a full time job, (however I do admire those that have hustled and made it in this space – bravo to them and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t jealous 🙂 ), I have never been quite ready to say goodbye. I still love everything about fashion, trends, and simply getting ready for the day. Nothing can replace the feeling…

    Stitch Fix Freestyle

    Hi friends! Today’s blog post I want to talk about all things Stitch Fix! I’m sure you’ve heard of Stitch Fix for years – the company that sends you a box of clothes, personally styled just for you, keep what you like and return what you don’t, right? I’ve honestly never tried a subscription clothing service, so when the folks at Stitch Fix reached out for a collaboration, I didn’t hesitate to say yes! However, I figured I would be reviewing their subscription box service, but that wasn’t the case. Stitch Fix recently dropped a whole new way to shop called “Freestyle.” And I’m here to tell you – it’s…

    Flatlay Style 3.7.23

    Hi everyone! I hope your week is off to a great start! I had a nice 3 day weekend off work to spend with family and it’s taken me a couple of days to get back into the swing of things – don’t you love when you need a vacation after a vacation? I purchased these sandals recently in ‘coffee’ – I’ve always wanted a pair of dark chocolate brown sandals and these were exactly what I was looking for! Not to mention they have 5 star reviews! Since then I’ve been on the hunt for tops that have a similar coloring to match the sandals. I came across this…

    Flatlay Style 3.1.23

    Hi friends! My schedule has been all over the place this week with appointments, errands, and family is coming in town to visit Friday. So needless to say my hair is living in a top knot while sporting whatever gym clothes I can find this week – not very fashionable or bloggable. 🙂 I threw together a few flatlays I thought I could share instead! I love my colors. I love my prints. But sometimes neutrals make you feel good also! I picked up these shorts at Target last week (in 3 colors… they are really good!), and these green pair are great to style with natural colors like beige,…

  • Outfits Lately, Vol. 3

    Hi everyone! Today on the blog I wanted to share a few outfits I’ve shared over on the gram in recent weeks! Our weather down in Florida has been anywhere from 40 to 85 degrees (no joke!) the last couple of weeks (and sometimes all in one day!) so my outfits are all over the place. So happy to be wearing spring colors and fun prints! striped pullover | similar tee | similar necklace mixed media sweatshirt | jeans | sneakers | similar necklace striped blazer | tee | necklace | bag | jeans | sneakers sweater | jeans | booties (old) – similar | earrings ruffled sweater (code: PEARLS15)…

  • Old Navy striped sweater tank

    OOTD 2.16.23

    Happy Thursday! I hope your week is going well! Who here is a sweater tank fan? I personally love them because they are easy to layer under a denim jacket and also thicker than a regular tank so perfect when there is a tiny chill in the air or in the summer when the air conditioning is going strong (we are headed there in Florida I think!). Old Navy released their version of a new sweater tank a few weeks ago and I ordered both this striped version and a cobalt blue solid color. I was leery of the quality, but was pleasantly surprised! The material is a really nice…

  • OOTD 2.15.23

    Hi friends! I have a big roundup coming for “outfits lately” I’ve worn over the last few weeks, but in the meantime I’ve been wanting to get back to just simple blogging. I used to post an outfit once a day (when things were simpler… pre-Tiktok and IG Reels haha).. and I recently came across a new (to me) blog that posted similar OOTD (outfit of the day) posts and I really loved the simplicity of it! And that is truly the heart of my blog anyway. I work 40 hours a week. I wear regular outfits. And truly want to just help the everyday woman get dressed in the…

    Avara: Resort Collection picks

    Hi friends! Last week I shared Avara’s release of their resort collection and today wanted to share with you my top picks! I love so many items from this release (see original blog post here), but alas had to narrow it down to my top faves. You all know I love color, love fun prints, and these items have both! My husband and I are hopefully planning a couple of vacations this year to Key West and also down to Naples to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary (we had a destination wedding at a resort in Naples when we still lived in the midwest), so these items will be…
