RE-INTRODUCTION
With a little uncertainty, nearly 5 years ago I started this blog. I was not 100% sure what the outcome would be, but I knew that I wanted to create a space that inspired the everyday gal...a place that inspired her to discover and explore her own timeless style.
Bold Blazer(s) with RiverIsland
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.
Last Summer's Suit
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.
Wear-To-Work
While I don't have a traditional office profession, I do love a good modprof look. Modprof is short for Modern Day Professional! I think I've shared that "phrase" in another post. In fact, I'm certain that I have!
Endless Dresses with Ann Taylor
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.
How To Style Your Ankle Boots for Spring/Summer
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.
Weekend Luxe with Ann Taylor
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!
Party Dress
It's Wednesday and I've got my PARTY DRESS on. Haha. Honestly, I think it was a Saturday or Tuesday when we took these photos, but you get the point. haha. It's no new news that I absolutely love Sherri Hill Designs. In fact, this love affair started in 2008 when I began the hunt for the perfect Miss Georgia evening gown. To make a long story short, I found the evening gown of my dreams and the rest is history.
Bright in NOLA
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!
Midday Musings on Magazine
Just a few weeks ago, en route home from a trip down South, I made a quick pitstop in Baton Rouge to visit my frand, Taylor. Without the slightest hesitation, we ventured over to NOLA for a day of adventure and it was pretty much incredible. I mean...I basically ate all day. I'm a foodie, so I was living my best life!
3 Winter-to-Spring Outfit Ideas
Welp, I think we have officially hit that awkward time in the year where winter isn't exactly over, but it isn't exactly spring! Getting dressed in the mornings can be a little extra complicated as you are likely over your winter clothing and ready to purchase a few new things, but it's the awkward seasonal timing that makes you think twice.
Simple, But Meaningful Galentine's Day Gift Idea
Happy Galentine's Day! And yes, I promise this is a real holiday...I mean...just search Google and you'll see that I am indeed correct. When I was chatting with Jason about our Galentine's Day content, he was like "What is Galentine's Day?" The last thing we need in America is another holiday to celebrate, but I will gladly take any opportunity to celebrate the gals that I love and adore.
The Beauty of Unexpected Friendships
It’s funny to think that as life changes, so do your friendships and relationships with others. To be honest, I don’t think that is something that most of us like to think about. However, it is a simple reality of life. While this season of life can be brutally painful, it is also amazingly wonderful to see what new friendships come to the surface.
