Work Style: Tie-Waist Skirt
Well hello friends! I hope you all are having a great Monday so far. I’m off work again today, but then head back tomorrow. I’m motivated to kind of keep up my blog this week and post as much as I can, but I feel like I don’t have a ton of content. You’ve heard me say this before, but the ‘transition’ months are always the worst. We are all kind of burned out from summer fashion, but it’s still too hot to wear fall fashion. As a blogger, I try to post ‘transitional’ outfit posts as much as I can, but a lot of times that doesn’t make a…

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…

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…

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…

Casual Style: Floral Tie-Waist Shorts
Happy Thursday! Today I’m sharing these printed tie-waist shorts from J.Crew Factory. They are really good! For all you ladies out there who struggle with weight in their stomach area, these shorts are very flattering. The inseam length says 3.5″ on the website, but they feel longer on me. Overall, between the tie-waist, the crisp poplin material, and stretchy waistband – these shorts are a win for me! They are a dressier look, but I would wear these with flat sandals as well as a dressier heel. If you are traveling to a beachy area anytime soon, these are a great option for eating outside and staying comfortable with the…

Casual Style: Tie-Dye Midi Skirt
Hi everyone! Sharing another fun skirt casual skirt option today! This midi skirt from J.Crew Factory is a recent new arrival on their website. This skirt comes in 2 colorways ~ the blue shown here and also a pretty yellow hue. I styled it quite simply here with a basic white tee and a neutral sandal. There are no petite sizes, so I’m wearing a regular size medium. Honestly, I think it fits a tad big. Thankfully the drawstring waist fixes that, but I could have probably could have taken a size small (I’m a normal size 28/6 for reference). If you are in between sizes, I would recommend sizing…

J.Crew Factory Style Finds, Vol. 2
Hi friends! Happy Easter! So today is kind of a ‘whomp whomp’ sort of day – my husband is working 11 hours today and my dad + stepmom have her family in town, so while I’m not upset or anything, I’m a little bored ha!

Skip below for the blogging if you don’t want to read my life update. 🙂 Move update: If you’re wondering about our move, we finally…

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…

J.Crew Factory New Arrivals!
Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing a few new favorites from one of my favorite stores ~ J.Crew Factory! Once Christmas has passed, I feel like I’m waiting (somewhat) patiently each day for new arrivals to get here… and here we are! What I love so much about JCF is that so many of their items are just new versions of old favorites. Take the same sweater, same shorts, same skirt and add a new print or color. That’s exactly what they did and I’m here for it! Below are items on my wish list and a few outfit inspirations for you! striped tee | sweater blazer | heart sweater chino…
