Ima Jean Overall.

5.13.2016

I'm itchin' for a pair, but the few I've ever tried on looked weird on me. I'm tempted to splurge on one of the following...have you had any luck finding the perfect overall? Or you a hater of the trend? Go ahead and tell me, you won't hurt my country lovin' feelings.

Those Shoes!

4.22.2016


I had a lot of questions about my shoes on instagram this week and unfortunately I got these on from a IG closet sale and they're old and sold out, but every couple years I seem to find this same style and I always buy them because they're so perfect for Spring and Summer, so I compiles a grouping of similar options for you to shop! Just click on the image and it will take you to their site :)

Bold 1950s Party Dresses

2.26.2016

Marcus' co-worker has a 1950s themed event to attend and was at a loss for what to wear. Since vintage themed outfit shopping is pretty much my jam, he text me and asked if I could help. The next three posts are what I came up with. Now I wish I was attending a 1950s event!

40 Gorgeous Dresses for A Formal Event

2.24.2016


40 Gorgeous Outfits for a Formal Event
here

My best friend, Jenny, is headed down to Brazil (her home country) to attend a wedding and down there, all weddings are very formal events, so she needed to find something fancy. She also happens to be nursing her baby, so that's why I included a lot of top + skirt options and a few nursing friendly dresses. Be sure to use the arrow to see the second page of options if you're in the market! 

Nursing Friendly Tops

2.16.2016

With Simon nursing less frequently these days, I have a little more flexibility on what I wear, but man oh man, that first year, access to the milkies rules the wardrobe! I found that trapeze style tops were my jam because I Simon refused to allow a blanket or any kind of cover over him (and frankly, I wasn't too keen on it either, because it's HOT!) but these style tops sort of acted as a cover so you could still be somewhat discrete. All the extra fabric just kind of billows on his cheek while he nurses and drops down quickly should he unlatch. It also hides that post baby belly for the few months it takes to go down. As for dresses--they pretty much have to have buttons or be wrap dresses or they're a no go. Anyways, this is another list I put together for my darling friend Alex, but thought I'd share with you all too!

Post Baby One Piece

kortni jeane suit found here

One of my childhood besties just had her first precious baby and she asked me to help her find a swimsuit that she would feel comfortable in post C-Section since summer heat is quickly approaching here in the Valley of the Sun! In case anyone else is on the lookout--here's the list. As always, just click on the image you like and it will take you to the shop (click the arrow to see the 2nd page as well)

Old Navy On Point For the Whole Fam!

9.18.2015


I had some Old Navy Cash that just MADE me stop in the store and look around for some Fall goodies and I was blown away with how much good stuff they have right now for the whole family! I must say, it's a good thing I don't have a little girl, because I was DYING at all the cute things they have--I blew up my sisters phone with all the sweet tops and dresses she needed for her new little lady baby. Here are my favorite things (and of course, pretty much everything is on major sale, because, it's old navy, and that's always the case!)--too many of them are happily hanging in my closet...

Just click on any items that catch your eye to shop!

a rainbow of midi-skirts!

11.12.2014

My best friend's brother is getting married next month and she's frantically trying to find something to wear that is
A. Under $50
B. Dressy enough for a wedding, while still being versatile for mixing and matching within her wardrobe once the wedding is over
C. Accommodating for her new, but growing baby bump

She knew she felt feminine and pretty in A-line or full skirts, plus those are easy to pull over a bump, so that was mostly where I started. I was just going to send her all these cute skirts I found, but I figured you all might be interested as well, so here is my rainbow of options for your browsing pleasure (be sure and click the little arrow to the right to see the few on the next page).

All are under $50 and include free shipping and returns--just click on the images that catch your eye and pair them with a bold necklace like this one, this one, or my personal fave, here, to take it up a dressy notch :)
