Hey y’all!  We are getting through the first week of March! Yay! This is my favorite month out of the year.  At least it use to be when I worked retail.  It is when everyone was getting their wardrobes ready for Spring and we were always super busy.  I saw all of my favorite customers and it was just fun.  These days are a little different as the rest of the world is not on that same schedule and I am no longer in the retail world.  I feel WAY ahead of the game because of that.  I am struggling to find things that I want because lots of the stuff is still geared toward winter. I was in H&M this past week and they…

Hello sweet ladies!  Do you want a surefire way to make a statement?  There are lots of trends that come and go that I never even take a second look at.  The overalls trend for this season called for a second look and evaluation. Needless to say I fell in love!  Overalls are something I wore when I was in college.  They definitely took me on a walk down Nostalgia Lane! Clothing items can have such an emotional connection to us, can’t they?  If you say no just think about your wedding dress, what you wore on your first date with your husband, or what you wore when you landed that amazing job! Well, with the nostalgia also comes the opposite.  If you have bad…

Hello lovely ladies!  And possibly gents!  I say that because my wonderful and supportive father-in-law subscribes to my blog!  My hopes for this post is to get you to really think about trying a monochromatic look this Spring 2018! If you have already tried one I would love to know how you styled it! Wouldn’t you agree that our wardrobe sometimes needs a fresh mix of some different looks?  Due to this feeling I have gained a personal interest in a monochromatic look. Monochromatic means “one color”.  I have recently tried this and absolutely love it. My husband loved it too!  He thought it was subtly sexy. Hmm… I did feel like it made me look taller and slimmer though!  So, for you petite gals…

Hey y’all! Do you have anything in your wardrobe that you just love and gravitate towards every day? You can probably guess what mine is by all my photos!  Well, if you can’t I guess I will just have to tell you….denim!  I absolutely feel my best when I am in a good pair of jeans. I like denim so much I even try to keep up with all the news and trends in the denim industry.  I don’t know if you have ever heard of New York Denim Days but it is a festival of all-things Indigo! One of these days I hope to go and indulge myself in the numerous exhibitors from the fashion, denim and art worlds. I also subscribe to a…

Hey ladies! One of my favorite trendy items for the Spring 2018 season is a beautiful white eyelet blouse.  I think they are so pretty and so extremely versatile. You can find them in many price ranges and styles.  I chose one from H&M that I absolutely love and it was under $35!  This is an item I would not recommend spending a whole lot on because it is white and trendy.  I would choose this as an addition to your essential wardrobe, which I wrote about in my last post.  This is one of those additional pieces that is a great purchase for this season. I have styled this blouse a few different ways.  Some people would only put this on and wear it…

Hey ladies! The hot question that I am going to address in this blog post is: What will I need to make a great Spring wardrobe?  I am going to give you the essentials that you need to get you started. You will continue to add things to make it your own personal style but this should always come first.  I like to start with the essentials of your wardrobe because they are what you will need for layering and mixing and matching throughout the season. These essentials are just basics that are the “canvas” for your wardrobe. Think of it like a painting.  You start with a canvas and build on it to make your picture from there.  You can not build the picture…

Hey y’all! Thanks for coming to check out my Flat Lay to Life-Styled post! I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I enjoy creating them! The purpose of this is to help bring the flat lay details to life by seeing it on the body.  It’s amazing how something styled on a flat lay does not always correspond the same on the body! Don’t worry, the bad ones don’t ever get posted! These are some of the most recent ones that I did and they are casual but chic everyday outfits!  They are also some of my current favorites and a few are more recent purchases.
