    Winter Style: Colorblock Sweater

    How do you like to transition from the holiday outfits to early spring? I usually mix it up – once January 2nd hits, the holiday/fall gear is in the back of my closet, and out comes late winter styles! I like to switch between a gray/black based outfit like shown below, winter whites, and of course spring colors! Since we live in northern Indiana, our weather can be a little tricky. That usually drives my outfit choices. If it’s a calm warmer-ish sunny day – give me the pinks and corals! If it’s a wintery snow-cold type of day – I opt for the outfit below. And the cycle continues…

  • Outfits Lately, Vol. 7

    Hi everyone! Blogging has definitely taken a back burner to life lately – I hit 29 weeks of growing baby yesterday and man, that 3rd trimester sneaks up on you and laughs in your face! I started feeling it again around week 27, but now life is full of heartburn, insomnia, back discomfort (thankfully not a ton of pain… yet…), and just overall meh feeling. I’ve put together quite a few outfits over the last month and just never shared them. I feel like a total slacker! However today is a good day, so I thought I’d put together a quickie blog post sharing some holiday inspired outfits, everyday outfits,…

    Adidas Gazelle: Holiday Outfit

    Happy Turkey week everyone! Who else has their house decorated for Christmas already? We just decorated yesterday and weirdly I feel late to the party lol! Sometimes we decorate before Thanksgiving, sometimes after, but we purchased a new Christmas tree this year and went shopping for ornaments tonight – um, Target was practically cleared out! I was able to find some that hopefully work – I might have to regroup on this endeavor next year (apparently before Halloween), but regardless put me in the holiday cheer! *Bump update: I’m 27 weeks today and feeling it that’s for sure! Hard to believe I’m one week away from the 3rd trimester –…

  • Holiday Casual: Fair Isle Accessories

    Happy Monday friends! I was cruising through some websites this past weekend and came across this adorable fair isle hat – while red/green are the classic holiday colors, I thought it would be fun to style a casual outfit using the pink from the hat. Pink/burgundy are always really popular post-holidays (aka Valentines Day era), so this is a fun combo that should last all winter long! sweater | hat | uggs | earrings | jeans | coat | belt bag | socks

  • Target Favorites – On sale!

    Good morning everyone! Today is the last day to enjoy the Target 25% off sale for women’s clothing, shoes, and accessories! Sunday is the day new arrivals drop at Target and also restock their website. I took advantage of placing an order for things I’ve had on my wish list that were out of stock. I sized up in a few sweaters and hoping they work on the bump for a bit! But if not, I think they are great quality items to hold onto for next year. I rounded up my favorites below! joy sweater | sneakers | shacket | boots | cardigan | cable knit sweater | mock…

  • Fall Edit: Grey and Black

    Hi everyone! Today I wanted to share a tried and true color combination I’ve loved for years during the fall and winter months – gray and black (and silver). The outfit I created directly below is using current items available for purchase, but I also wanted to share past years outfit creations with a similar color combination. If you want to add a little color, forest green, burgundy, and cobalt blue pair really well also! I’ll link what I can on the older outfits, but I hope this post gives you mostly inspiration to use what you can in your current closet to create new with the old. 💗 earrings…

  • Outfits Lately, Vol. 5

    Hi everyone! I’d be lying if I said I’ve been getting dressed “up” everyday (aka jeans lol) – lately I’ve been living in leggings and sweatpants with the chilly weather (I WFH so it’s easy to embrace!). I snapped photos over the last few weeks on days I did get dressed and I wanted to share a few outfits below of new items I’ve picked up with all the fantastic sales lately! Sizing and availability in colors may be limited, but I have a feeling returns will start hitting the shelves soon after the holidays, combined with a refresh in inventory, and some of the items below will be great…

  • J.Crew Factory New Arrivals ~ December 2023

    Hi friends! One of my most popular blog posts in the past has been new arrivals from J.Crew Factory – certainly a reader favorite here on the blog! Since I haven’t blogged much recently, I haven’t posted outfits like this in a while, but I had a few days off work and am really loving the new arrivals from the past month! I tried to create a mix of holiday and more neutral outfits, because if you’re like me – we have at least 2 more months of winter and warm sweaters left ahead of us after Christmas! 🙂 Please note: The main item featured in each outfit creation is…

  • Five Outfits, Vol. 1

    Hi friends! I put together a few outfits below with items I have in my cart, watching for a great sale! I don’t work out of the house any longer, but the holiday-inspired “work” look I would definitely wear to a Christmas party or holiday date night. I also love so many of the new arrivals from Nordstrom’s house brands – both BP and Caslon. My wish list is a mile long, but I’m trying to be so good about waiting for sales lately and not overspending – it’s hard when the new arrivals are really good! Outfit details below. sweater | earrings | jeans | coat | bag |…

    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. Crew’s flat options – Target’s are better (and more affordable!). sweater | sunglasses | tote | sneakers | jeans flare jeans | sweater | top | earrings | sandals ruffled shirt | sweater | necklace | ballets flats | earrings | jeans
