Summer is officially in full force. It is SO HOT. Maxi dresses are one of my favorite pieces for summer. I’ve partnered with Em & Me Boutique to show off a gorgeous maxi perfect for this summer heat. I think this maxi is so pretty. It can be worn casually or to a fancier event, which I love. It’s so light and flowy. I love it with a simple pair of sandals. The thick straps are so nice and supportive. I paired it with a pair of Sojos sunglasses that I’ve been loving. Em…
The Nordstrom Sale is here. The exclusive (eye roll) early access is over, and the sale is now available to anyone and everyone. It lasts July 19-August 4, and is the time of year when all fashion bloggers put out their recommendations… yeah yeah, I’m no different. BUT. I wanted to keep all my recommendations under $50. I don’t spend a lot on this sale (I stocked up a little more last year, because I won a gift card, woo hoo!), but there are a few items I think are worth it. I am…
I love yoga. It’s relaxing, it’s a nice little strength workout, and it helps me stretch out my muscles. I’ve been having some shoulder pain, and yoga helps me stretch those muscles. I’ve attended yoga at Country Boy in Georgetown a couple of times, and wanted to share one of my yoga outfits that I love. I love these capri leggings. They are so cute. They’re a white leopard ish print, which I absolutely adore. It’s so hot right now, so cropped leggings are a great way to…
Summer is officially here! I love comfortable outfits that are breathable but cute. I wore this outfit to a girls night dinner, and it was perfect. I love this top. It’s such a cute tunic, and it’s a great length (especially if you’re wearing it with leggings like I am). I love the solid black tunic. It’s great for summer. It’s thin and comfortable. These leggings are so comfortable. I love the camo print. Kentucky weather has been (shockingly) unpredictable. It’s been hot, but it’s also…
I’ve talked about my love for cute but comfortable outfits. If I’m going to an event, or even to work, I want to be comfortable. Especially with the heat in Kentucky summers. Flowy pants are some of my favorite summer wardobe options. They can be cute and comfortable, and they can be really stylish. I love this simple black and white striped pair of pants. Vertical stripes add an appearance of length. As a 5’4″ girl, adding length can be a bonus. I’ll take all the help I can get. I…
I can’t believe it’s already July! That means it’s already time for a 2019 Project Pan update! And y’all, it’s a good one. Last year at this time, I was stressing. I had barely completed any of my panning goals. But this year, I have a TON of progress, and that makes me so happy! If you want to see my intro post, check it out here! Let’s start with the items I’ve panned or finished. I finished two primers completely: the NYX Hydra Touch primer…
Summer is here, and that means picnics and bonfires and cookouts. With the 4th being this week, plenty of cookouts are coming. If you’re looking for an easy recipe that’s absolutely delicious, check out this pasta salad! First, cook the pasta per the directions on the box and let it completely cool. I used tricolor rotini, but you can use any kind of pasta. Next, add Italian dressing and Ranch dressing, as well as a can of diced tomatoes. Next, cut Pepperoni into pieces. You can add as many or as few as you’d…
Memorial Day was last month, and I kept my outfit pretty casual. BUT, the 4th of July is next week, and I think a similar outfit would work really well. I also went with some themed makeup, and I wanted to share in case you were looking for some inspiration! I even included Remus in the festiveness (I’m always a little extra, in case you’re not aware). This shirt is so cute, and is so fitting for me. I will cancel (or not even make) plans to hang out with Remus. Look at him, can you…
I love being comfortable at work. Sometimes, business casual makes that difficult. I tend to lean toward the casual side. One of my favorite pieces to make a “casual” outfit more professional is a blazer. It takes things from cute and casual to business casual. This blazer is an item I picked up last year on the Nordstrom sale. I think a blazer is a great staple piece. They can be dressed up or down, and there are so many fun options out there. I’ll link a few black options at the bottom of this post…
I don’t always do my makeup at home. Sometimes my mornings are rushed, and I do part (or all) of my makeup on my breaks at work. I keep a makeup bag at my desk. If I need to just do a quick eye look, or a full makeup look, I’m prepared. You never know when someone will unexpectedly ask you to do something after work unexpectedly (I’ve literally bought concert tickets the DAY OF, and had to try to get ready). I’ve partnered with Begin Magic to show what’s…
