Lost and Found

These shoes got lost in my closet, and once I rediscovered them, I just had to wear them.  So when I took my sister out for a casual brunch a few weekends ago, I built my outfit around them.  My first thought was to find something in the yellow family; I knew that camel/yellow combo would pop. This lemony lime hued top was the closest I got. The jeans were are a simple addition, and then for a little contrast, I added a white linen blazer.  People think I like to wear blazers because of the extra polish they give which is partly true, but I really love how they cover up imperfections and slim you down. I mean chubby arms, back rolls, a little extra in the midsection - it covers it all! And in this case, it did just that plus tied everything together for a fresh spring look.  Get into the details below! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're getting your fill of bbq this Memorial Day weekend - I'm sure planning to! (My next post may be how to pull off the elastic waistband - spoiler:  just wear a romper)

You Look So Much Better When You Smile

I am soooo behind in my posts, because, you know, life.  So, this is a quick post to get back on track. More content to come!

I. Love. Cobalt. Blue.  For some reason it just makes me feel all happy and "glowy."  So while I still had my curls, I decided to pair this ASOS dress with simple two strap black sandals.  A no fuss look, but the texture of the dress and peplum hem added interesting details, and the minimal styling kept the focus on the vibrant hue.  Oh, and since I was feeling "glowy" and cheesing all over the place in these pics, I count my smile as an added accessory.  The deck decided to be covered in pollen this day, and I almost skipped this post due to the less than pristine background, but hey, life's too short to waste good outfit pics on a little bit of nature's glitter.  :)

Get into the details below!  I hope your week is off to an amazing start!

I was feeling spunky with this curly hair, so I decided to offer up some versatility in this post.  For this look, I put together a more dressed up version with heels and a laid back option with sneakers. Hence the title of this post. For the base of the look, I paired my fave distressed boyfriend jeans with a white button up.  It made for a crisp but funky spring outfit. These Steve Madden cage sandals will be in heavy rotation in my spring and summer wardrobe.  They are a cheaper version of the Schutz heels you've probably seen making the rounds with celebs and are surprisingly comfortable. They do run small, so make sure to go up a half size if you decide to pick them up.  While in New Orleans, I also picked up these grey and white Pumas.  My boyfriend is a big Puma fan, and I'm turning into one as I work on my sneaker game.  Two great options - you can't go wrong!  Get into the details below. Thanks for stopping by, and I hope your week has been as fabulous as you. :)
