The older I get, the less I love the idea of a two-piece swimsuit. I guess they call this shift in mindset, AGING. Ugh. While I'm relatively the same size I was in my early twenties, there's just something about being a bit more covered up in my swimsuit that makes me feel more confident!

There are lots of ways that we can make a bold and dynamic statement with our clothing. A mean pair of earrings, a killer handbag, an interesting top, all of which are GREAT. However, I think there is one clothing piece that we often forgot about and that's a BLAZER.

Soooo...I totally captured this look last summer while visiting Jason's family for the 4th of July! The goal was to get them posted last summer, but as you can see, that clearly did not happen. One of the things that can be both great and bad is the backlog of content created that never makes a debut on the blog.

I’ve been a dress lover since my younger years. My mom use to make me all kinds of dresses during my elementary school days. I specifically remember the sunflower dress she made me, as well as the balloon dress. I should try to find photos of those so I can share them with Y'all...you would get a good laugh for sure.

Ever since my young college days, I've always been that girl who wears her ankle boots ALLLLL YEAR LONG. There's one outfit I remember specifically...a tan printed Old Navy dress with tan cowboy ankle boots, also from Old Navy. I thought I was super cool! In fact, a photo of that exact look just popped in my timeline a few weeks ago...maybe I should share it. haha.

Luxe like weekend wear? Ahhh yes, please. Unlike most folks, it's on the weekend when I really try to step up my style game. As a stylist, Monday thru Friday I try to keep my clothing pretty simple, but stylish. Lots of running from here to there!

It's no surprise at all, but I LIVE for the bright, citrus-like colors. There's just something about orange and yellow (especially yellow) that makes me super happy. Insert happy sigh! Back in February, I shot this fun look down in NOLA (on a rather balmy Saturday). We were scooting along and happened upon this burnt orange wall, which made for the perfect backdrop for this bright spring-like look!

Every now and again, I get fixated on a trend...one of those being the slip dress movement. It's completely feminine, luxe and sexy in my opinion! With all of these adjectives in mind, I do think it can be a little daunting to style the slip dress tho...just in case you haven't noticed, I'm a pretty conservative gal.

Wowzers, that was super quick. Four Years. In some sense, it really does feel like it was yesterday that we got married. On the other hand, it seems like we've been together for an eternity already! ha.
