Hey y’all! I hope things are going well for everyone! I never thought I would be talking to you about a denim jacket but here I am!  The denim jacket is a classic piece that has been around for YEARS! The interesting thing about a denim jacket is they seem to always be available for purchase but are not always in style. All that is about to change!! If you have had one sitting in your closet for years it is time to pull it out or get a new one!  This is a must have for your Spring wardrobe and they are available everywhere in a variety of colors and styles.  Last year marked the 50th anniversary of the Levi’s original trucker jacket so…

Hey chica’s! I hope you had a great week! Mine has been fun and very productive.  I  started shopping recently after my detox from Christmas time and found this cute tie front cardigan from J Crew. When I tried it on I really liked it but wanted to do some more shopping before I decided to buy it.  This tie front cardigan was $68, so I really needed to love it.  After my not-so-productive shopping endeavors I decided to go back to J Crew and try the cardigan on again. When I did they had just marked it down to $43.99 AND it was additional 50% off ! I got that sucker for $21! What a great end to my unproductive shopping night! I wanted…

Hey Ladies!  Happy New Year! Have you thought about your goals for 2018?  I think goals are really important for everyone and they help give us direction and purpose in our lives.  I just started seriously blogging in the middle of 2017, so I have lots of goals in mind for 2018.  My business has been on a roller coaster ride for the past couple of years and blogging full-time was not something I thought I would be doing (but I am very glad it is!).   My dream is to educate women on how to have a versatile wardrobe without being boring, how to mix and match their pieces and how to make valuable purchases.  I want women to feel confident in who they are…

Hey everyone! We are so close to the new year and this year went by scary fast!  It seems the older I  get the faster time goes by.  Do you agree? I love the holidays but it takes me a few days to recover from all of our festivities with family. While I was  recovering I got behind on some of my writing so sorry this is coming to you a little late. I wanted to give you my suggestions of things to buy after Christmas that would be worth adding to your wardrobe.  I am going to start with Nordsrom today because they are having their Half Year Sale and there are actually some things I have been eyeing that are on sale. All…

Hey there ladies!   I am a huge fan of companies that want to provide great quality and service to their customers.  One of these companies that I want to introduce you to today is Ilymix.  They are an accessories company out of China that I have recently had the pleasure of collaborating with.  I will never collaborate with a company or brand that I do not believe in or like their products.  I tested this one out before I would agree to do the collaboration.  I have to say I really like the products and the ordering process was quick and easy.   I can’t tell you how great it is over long term yet but so far so good.  Keep reading to find out more…

Hello Everyone! I hope you had a great Thanksgiving break and did lots of great shopping!  I shopped for the first time in 20 years on Black Friday and it was a blast.  We now have 4 weeks until Christmas! Sometimes it’s 5 weeks depending on how Thanksgiving falls.  I look forward to Christmas coming but I don’t look forward to winter. I love fall and it just doesn’t last long enough. There is a very specific time of year that the leaves change and my favorite tree turns bright yellow.  Some seasons it’s more yellow than others. This tree is the Ginkgo tree.  I have one in my yard and just learned last year about what is called “Night of the Ginkgo”.  This is…

Hey girls!  Wow! this week I actually got two blog posts up!  I have been working so hard on a new website and new backgrounds for my flat lay photos that my focus has not been on writing!  And yes, coming soon is a fresh new website that I have done ALL by myself!  I am so proud of this project! Can’t wait for you to see it. Those of you who know me know that I am married to a programmer but he has been so busy I have done this one on my own.  Anyway, to get back on track,  my inspiration for writing comes from my own wardrobe selections or from a conversation about something fashiony (which is quite often) or just…
