Fall is almost here! We’ve had some cooler weather lately, and my little heart is so happy. I’m so ready for sweaters, boots, Fall decor, and all things Halloween. I love sprucing up an all black outfit with a pop of color. I’ve talked about that in numerous outfit posts. This purple cardigan is cute, affordable, and it such a pretty color for Fall. It’s different than tones I usually think of for Fall, but I think it’s really nice, and different can be a really good thing! I threw…
My friend Lindsay (of Bourbon and Lipstick) started a podcast, Influenced the Podcast, with another blogger, Christine. I’ve really been enjoying it, and highly highly recommend it. Their latest topic was expectations on women. They put out a survey asking what expectations women have, and I wanted to discuss some of my thoughts on the questions asked in the survey, specifically the pressures of being single and having children. I’m not going to discuss every question in the survey, just ones that really hit me hard. Things are going to get a little personal in here…
I usually go to the zoo a couple of times a year with a friend. For Christmas, we got each other zoo memberships. I got us Cincinnati Zoo passes, and he got us Louisville Zoo passes. It was completely unplanned, but it was a nice surprise. We decided to go over the 4th of July weekend, and it was HOT. I wanted to be comfortable, so I wore a cute but very light outfit. Tanks are amazing in the summer. I know black is not everyone’s first option, but it’s my outfit preference most of the…
Versatile clothing pieces are my favorites. I love things that I can dress up or down. I’ve discussed this many times on the blog. I want things I can wear over and over. I found a dress that is gorgeous, flattering, and VERY versatile, so I obviously had to share! The first place I wore this dress was to work. I had so many compliments on this dress, and I didn’t mind a bit. The straps are my favorite part. They can be worn on the shoulders, or down for an off the shoulder look (if…
Leopard is definitely a big trend this year, and I am absolutely here for it. This is one trend coming back from the 90’s that I can get behind. Maybe it’s my forever love for Shania Twain that will also keep my leopard love alive. I wore this outfit to work, and had so many compliments all day. My favorite response is always “It’s from Walmart.” Walmart has stepped up their game so much lately, and this cardigan is so amazing. The leopard print is in right now, and it’s…
Red and black is one of my favorite combinations. I think it’s so classy. I’ve talked about my love for versatile outfits, as well as affordable outfits, and this outfit falls in both categories. I’ve worn this to work, but I think it would be really nice for an after work event also. This outfit makes me feel so sassy… see below. This black shirt is so cute. It fits really well and I think it’s really flattering. When I purchased it, I didn’t realize it would be this…
Feed me and tell me I’m pretty is one of my favorite sayings. I think it’s hilarious. My favorite animal? Bears. Luckily, I found a shirt that combines both those things. Seriously, how adorable is this shirt? Also, the bear implies that if you don’t follow directions, you’re going to get an angry response. Which is pretty accurate if you’ve ever been around me when I’m hangry. I paired the shirt with a simple pair of jogger pants. I love this comfy outfit that’s perfect for…
When introducing myself as a lifestyle blogger focusing on fashion and beauty, I like to look the part. This shirt makes that possible. It mixes fashion and beauty, and I’m loving it. I think this shirt is adorable. And it’s affordable! It definitely fits my personality, which I love. The green makes my little Slytherin heart so happy. These shorts are so nice. They’re comfortable but still really cute. The vertical stripes are really flattering. As a short girl, I love anything that adds length to my body, and vertical stripes do that! I…
I’ve pretty much lived my life as a pale girl. I’m a natural redhead, and my skin tone definitely goes with the ginger stereotype. I’ve considered getting spray tans, and self tanning has always made me nervous… and then I found the product that’s a huge game changer for me. The St. Tropez express bronzer is #1 on my list of my 25 Nordstrom picks under $50. It’s amazing. It’s so easy to use, even for a first time user like me. It’s a summer…
I love outfits that can go from work to events. I talked about that in my leopard print tank + blazer post. This outfit is one that is perfect for both. I went straight from work to a blogger event without changing, and the outfit was great. I love this scalloped top. It’s so fun and pretty. I love scallops in fashion. It’s some of my favorite detailing. This shirt is under $10! I’ve really been loving kimonos lately. It’s hot out, so a light kimono is great for adding coverage. Tanks are…
