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…

Avara: November Favorites
Hi friends! One of my favorite boutique stores has released some great new arrivals lately, and I thought I would share what has caught my eye! I own the green leopard sweater ~ it’s a little warm for Florida, but not in that itchy, wool way. I’ll just have to save it for the cooler days in the 50s/60s (hopefully that happens)! I love all of the unique details and prints on the other items listed below – so many cute new items! wave graphic sweater | leopard sweater | balloon sleeve sweater graphic blouse | dress | orange/pink sweater | sneakers | mules

Outfits Lately, Vol. 1
Hi friends! I hope you all had a great week! I got a little bug for blogging again this past week after we had a cold front blow through Florida… only to have Mother Nature laugh and say ‘not so fast’ – and here we are back to 80s the next week or so! Ahh, it’s okay. Fall weather is my favorite, but I know my home town in Indiana has had snow already so I guess 80s will do! What I’m reading: Stephen King – Fairy Tale It’s spooky season ya’ll! I love Stephen King’s books and couldn’t resist reading his latest release during the month of October. However,…

Fall Style: Floral Dress
Hi friends! Today I wanted to share an adorable Amazon find – this floral mock-neck dress! My exact print is priced around $30 and comes as both this short-sleeve version and also a long sleeve option if you live where it’s colder! There are other prints available also, but with a slightly different style. My dress comes with a removable belt and the other options seem to have a smocked waist. Fit is TTS – I purchased my regular pant size (medium) and do not feel like the top portion is too big. It is a lightweight material, so will need tights underneath in the winter. The long sleeve version…

Fall Style: Plaid Balloon Sleeve Dress
I found the most adorable plaid dress today at none other than Target! I’m getting all of the Reese Witherspoon vibes from Sweet Home Alabama! Currently on sale for $24 (reg. $30) and 3 colorways available. I don’t love the green floral color option, but the black color is super cute also with a clip dot pattern. This dress is a great Florida friendly fall-transition piece also. Wear now with sneakers or sandals, and booties once it finally cools down. Material is lightweight. Fit is TTS to your top size. It’s flowy on the bottom, so go with your shirt size – I’m wearing a size small (and usually wear…

These were the items that caught my eye this week! favorite plaid flannel | corduroy skirt | chino dress striped sweater | mid-shaft booties | boot socks

Wish List, Vol. 17
Multiple times a week I like to cruise my favorite retailer websites and add new arrivals to my cart. However, they usually sit there in my cart until a good sale hits, before I purchase!

My shoe picks are from Target. 😍 mock neck sweater | crossbody bag | chain necklace | watchbands mules | ruffled…

Casual Style: Buffalo Plaid + Cozy Sneakers
Hi everyone! Happy Thursday! Today’s post brings you a fun new winter find ~ these cozy mule sneakers! It’s like an UGG mule slipper… but a little more stylish. 🙂 This Florida fall has me reaching for all the cozy things lately. We go from rainy and cold, to sunny and cold, to cloudy and warm? I can’t even figure out what to wear most days, but I seem chilled, and these cozy sneakers are a great way to not have to find socks to wear with regular sneakers! They fit TTS, but do seem a tad wide, and had I sized down 1/2 size I would have been fine…
