Little Leopard Touches

Black and denim and leopard keds

Hi Lovelies!

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! My sister and her family from Dallas came to stay with us on their way to Sea World. Wes and I babysat for the little baby all day Saturday and he is such a perfect little angel. If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter you probably saw the photos of little Mr. Carter from this weekend.  It was so cute to watch Wes with the baby, and I think he had a lot of fun playing Uncle Wes for the weekend. One of the many reasons to love my husband, he’s going to be a fantastic dad someday. Don’t worry for all of you family members out there reading this and having a mild heart attack, it will be a long while. I got my baby fever out this weekend with my sister’s little ones:)

On to the outfit! This dress (also seen here) is so comfortable and you can do pretty much anything with it. You all know my favorite print to throw into a plain, casual outfit (or any outfit really) is leopard and these shoes are my new favorites. I actually fell in love with some just like them that Shanna had on her blog a few weeks back, but they were so expensive. So, I went on a hunt for some cheaper ones and found these babies at Target. They are only $16.99 and they are really comfortable so I definitely would suggest ordering them:) I can’t wait to wear them like Shanna styled them with a cute t-shirt, fedora, and shorts!

Color Crush: Navy Blue and Kelly Green

Green and Navy outfit with a pop of pink

Hi Lovelies!

Today’s color crush is brought to you by my green cardigan. I have worn this dress about a thousand times since I first bought it back in the retail workin’ days at Delia’s and I have never liked it as much as I do with this cardigan. Sometimes one thing can just MAKE an outfit and this color is that thing for this outfit.

 If you follow me on Twitter, you will know that I have a new obsession with Keds. Well, Ked style shoes I guess since these are from Target and aren’t Keds brand. I have bought 3 pairs in the past month including these white ones. I am really torn because I originally bought them to paint with gold dots like the Kate Spade ones, but I really like the plain white ones too. Don’t worry though, if I paint them I’ll be sure to give you all a good old DIY post to show you how I did it:)

What do you think, paint the Keds or keep them white?

Bring On Spring

Pink hi low skirt and chambray

Hi Lovelies!

The weather is beautiful and I even though I have been breaking out the spring clothes on and off for a few weeks now, I think I can say that it is officially springtime in Texas! Woohoo! I found these wedges on Target’s website and knew that I had to have some new ones for this summer. I am so glad I bought them, because they go with everything! I love that gold bar down the center….gives it a little extra something something:) This skirt was a part of my birthday outfit last summer and the weather just seemed perfect for bringing out an old summer favorite:)

I usually go home for lunch so that I can spend less money on food and a little extra time with my puppy. I actually had the chance to sit in the sun and get a tan started while I was lunching yesterday, I was so excited! I sat on the back patio book in hand, puppy on lap, straps down, and sunglasses up just catchin’ some rays. I hope for your sake it’s warm where you are too! If not, come on down to Austin, it’s beautiful!

A Red & White Scarf As A Headband!

Red pants and chambray

Hi Lovelies!

It’s supposed to be nice here today, so I am excited! Though, I have to say, the weatherman has been EXTREMELY wrong lately so we shall see. They only seem to be right 30% of the time, which is stupid to me, what other jobs do you know of who can do it correctly 30% of the time and still get paid?! None! Well, here’s to hoping that it will be as spring-like today as my outfit is J The scarf used as a headband is what really does it for me, it makes the whole ensemble feel like a warm weather outfit.

I wrote THIS post last fall about tying scarves and I might need to add this way to my list! I love the way it hangs down into my hairJ We’ll have to see how many more ways I can think up to tie this little baby. I smell a new post on the horizon….

What’s your favorite way to tie a scarf for the springtime?

Nautical Stripes: Two Ways

Navy blue striped dress with pink accessories

Hi Lovelies!

Don’t mind me, I’ll just be hanging out here in Austin with my spring dresses and 85 degree weather!:) I’ll try not to rub it in too much…….I’ll try. This nautical-esque dress has been one of my favorites ever since I bought it at Charming Charlie last year. Well, dresses in general are my favorite, and now that it isn’t freezing here, you can expect to see a LOT more of them:)

I get asked all the time why I’m so “dressed up” when I wear a dress, and that’s one thing I’ll never understand. Putting on a dress is so much easier than picking out an entire outfit and they’re so much more comfortable than pants! I hate pants and I don’t hate many things…but pants are one of those things. They’re restrictive and you just can’t move in them. The moment I come home, pants are gone.  I just don’t understand why people don’t wear dresses ALL the time….pretty sure I was born in the wrong era. <sigh> What I wouldn’t give to have a world where dresses were the every day norm again.

This dress was in one of my first outfit posts way back last April. I paired it with some cowboy boots, a brown bow handbag and some turquoise beads. That’s one of the great things about it, there are so many ways to style it to make it a completely new outfit!
