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…

Opalhouse New Arrivals!
I’m so excited Target finally released a new collection of Opalhouse today! This brand is one of my favorite brands for home decor. I love the funky, eclectic feel. I was a modern farmhouse kinda home decor girl for awhile. With our new house, we have an extra bonus area upstairs so I’ve been able to freely play with new home decor and I love the space. The decor doesn’t just blend in, it makes me feel happy, and I love that! I’ve been wanting to slowly update each room in the house now! The next room to tackle is my home office. Instead of the modern farmhouse look, it…

Wish List, Vol. 20
Multiple times a week I like to cruise my favorite retailer websites and add new arrivals to my cart. These were the items that caught my eye this week! I actually already splurged on the puff sleep top and light wash jeans – I think they will look so perfect for spring! The sandals are now top of my wish list. The lighter raffia pair come in a lovely dark coffee color which is a hue I don’t own – and a hole in my closet – I realized how many tops/shorts I own would pair really well with that color. And the striped shirt and olive skirt are also…

Avara New Arrivals: Resort Collection
Hi everyone! My favorite boutique Avara just released the most wonderful collection of resort-style wear! I’m not heading to a resort anytime soon, but color me happy – I love it all, especially since I live in Florida! The prints and coloring in every item is absolutely gorgeous! Like make you happy and smile just-because kind of clothing! I honestly had a really hard time picking out my favorites to order. I ended up choosing these floral shorts, flutter sleeve top, smocked sleeve top, and floral dress. I’ll share sizing and fit once I get them in the mail! I love, love the pants below, but was a little worried…

J. Crew New Arrivals ~ January 2023
Hi friends! J. Crew released new arrivals today (finally – it’s been a minute!) and I created a few outfits below using my favorite items from the release. *Disclaimer: the ballet flats used are from Target – I honestly didn’t love J.

J.Crew Factory May 2022 ~ New Arrivals!
Hi everyone! J.Crew Factory just released their new arrivals for May – and they did not disappoint! Fun fruity prints are popular this spring/summer – I’ve seen lots of pineapples, lemons, and strawberries! I think I love that…. in moderation. 🙂 I created a few outfits below using my favorite items in this release. The midi dress The ‘cottage core’ trend made popular by our Gen Z pop is trying very hard for us millennials. This pretty midi dress definitely gives me the folklore/little house on the prairie vibes… but somehow in a good way! There are 2 coloring options, I just prefer this colorway since I think it will…

Casual Style: Scallop Shorts
Happy Saturday friends! I want to give a huge thank you to anyone who still reads here. 💗 Now that Florida has gone into full summer mode already, I’ve been thinking about posting new outfits again – I’ve been such a flaky blogger for awhile, but we are more than settled into our new home, my new job, my husband’s new job – so many changes in the last 10 months! I thought I would kick off this spring/summer with a few new items from my tried and true – J.Crew Factory! My top, shorts, and earrings are all new arrivals from their latest release. Due to inflation, I’ve been…

J.Crew Spring 2022
Hi friends! I know it’s been a long while since I’ve posted here – does anyone even read blogs anymore? I still do, but maybe that’s because I’m getting older. 🙂 I’ve been wanting to try and get back into blogging again consistently, but wow – things have certainly changed in the last year! I scroll my instagram feed and all I see are reels/videos. Don’t get me wrong – some bloggers are incredibly creative and do a great job! But for me personally, they are a little too stimulating. I guess that shows my age, but I prefer still photos or even try on videos, but the Tik Tok…

Wish List, Vol. 15
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! These were the items that caught my eye this week! headband | necklace leopard sweater | puff-sleeve top | hooded sweatshirt

J.Crew Factory New Arrivals ~ December 2021
Hi everyone! Happy Christmas Eve! It’s so nice to find myself back here in this tiny creative space of mine – I honestly took some time off from blogging after Turkey Day. Florida cools down and then heats right back up, making it not so fun to see all the fun holiday scarves, coats, booties, etc. that I can never wear. It makes me miss Indiana this time of year!…. until January 1st that is. Then I want all the sunshine! I would make the perfect “snowbird” as we call them in Florida lol! However, I’ve had some renewed energy this week. Christmas is tomorrow (I’m ready!), I have a…
