Hey Jealousy

Hi Lovelies!

Okay, okay…you caught me! As much as I am super glad I don’t live in the north, and as much as I don’t miss snow…I am a little tiny bit jealous that no one has to work today. Although, I’m sure if I had to take the Sophers for a walk in -12 temps I would be singing a WHOLE different tune. The grass is always greener….

Speaking of jealousy….this is the part where you get to be extremely jealous that I own the most adorable coat ever! I got it last winter at Target and it is my all time favorite. It’s frilly, it’s girlie, it’s warm, and it’s black! <swoon> All of my favorite features of winter fashion. To be honest, it was far too cold outside to take it off, so you don’t even get to see what’s underneath lol. We will leave that outfit for another day:)

Get The Look:
Coat: Target, Denim: H&M, Boots: DSW, Hat: Old Navy

(I would link to something similar to this jacket, except let’s be honest…there isn’t anything else like this jacket. It’s just too magnificent to be matched.)

Sophie is just the best accessory/prop ever. She sits well, she wants to be held, and she gives spontaneous kisses. What more could I ask for? (PS: If you’re new here and want more on Sophie click here, here, here, and here) Well, I think that’s all I have for today….after all, some of us have to work!

Until tomorrow…

Denim Dots And Floral Mix

Hi Lovelies!

Talk about crazy weather! Saturday was 70 degrees….yesterday was 40. All of my friends and family in Michigan got over 14 inches of snow last night…..I would have to say that according to all the apocalypse movies, the world is going to end pretty soon. That’s how it all starts people! And this is why I shouldn’t watch such movies…they go to my head:) Haha! No, but really….if it’s going to be cold it needs to just be cold. No more of this teasing!

Today’s outfit is perfect for this time of year in Texas. It’s all about the layers. When you go to work it’s 35 degrees, by lunch it’s 50-60 degrees and time to take off that top layer:)

Get The Look:
Sweater: Old Navy, Polka dot chambray: Old Navy, Denim: H&M, Crossbody: Charming Charlie, Sunglasses: Aldo, Bangles: Charming Charlie, Spike bracelet: Old Navy, Flats: Francesca’s Collections, Earrings: Nordstrom, Bun shaper: Nordstrom

Old Navy has been rockin’ it lately, in my opinion. I was never a huge fan up until about a year ago when there was one right next to the place I worked. I really think I became addicted to going in there on my breaks, and they have REALLY stepped up their game! Have you found anything cute at Old Navy lately?

Until tomorrow…

Pastels From Winter To Spring

Hi Lovelies! One of my favorite 2013 trends was by far pastels. I am so excited that I am still seeing them everywhere I shop, it gives me so much hope that they are here to stay! PS: I cannot believe that I am already seeing spring lines going out at every store I walk into! I am so pumped, since I absolutely hate winter and cannot wait for my Texas spring:)

These light colors are great all year round and today I wanted to show you a few cute options for wearing pastels through winter and into spring.

I don’t think we Texans will be needing our winter clothes for too much longer, but for all of you Northern ladies out there, we have the winter pastel outfit. A nice warm sweater with skinnies and some adorable mint shoes to top it all off!

Get The Look: Sweater: American Eagle, Skinnies: H&M, Tank top: Target, Necklace: Nordstrom Rack, Clutch: Charming Charlie, Headband: Aerie, Sunglasses: Aldo, Shoes: c/o Yellowbox, Bracelet: Charming Charlie

And for you Texas ladies who had a 65 degree day yesterday <woot woot>…here is my spring version! This shirt is so comfy and they have a whole bunch of different colors. It’s a nice alternative to the regular denim chambray top.

Get The look:
Top: Old Navy, Skinnies: H&M, Headband: Nordstrom Rack, Purse: Charming Charlie, Shoes: c/o Yellowbox, Infinity necklace: gift from Wes, Mint necklace: Lia Sophia, Aviators: Delia’s

The kicker in these outfits for me really is the shoes. They are by Yellowbox and I think they are just the cutest. I have gotten so many compliments on them already and I’ve only worn them once or twice. My Mom, sisters and I have been huge Yellowbox sandal fans for years and I had NO idea Yellowbox even made flats until recently! New obsession found.

How will you be wearing pastels in 2014?

Until tomorrow…

A Little Bit Of Fringe

Hi Lovelies!

As I’m sure you are aware (because the Texas bloggers/people in general cannot stop talking about it), it is COLD here. All I have to say is mad props go to those fashion bloggers up in the north. I do not know how they do it. What I do know is that If I have to take pictures in the cold again I might just cry. I hate to say it, but being cold doesn’t make me a very good photographer. Not only was it cold and uncomfortable, but I was attempting to keep the camera from being blown over by the wind. So…..I’m sorry for the somewhat blurry pictures:-\

Get The Look:
Top: Charming Charlie, Cardigan: Target, Tank top: Forever 21, Denim: H&M, Boot socks: Nordstrom Rack, Boots: Charming Charlie, Handbag: Francesca’s Collections, Belt: Delia’s, Infinity necklace: Charming Charlie, Sunglasses/Bracelet/Headband: Charming Charlie

I was a little bit bummed when I saw that these pictures were blurry, because this top is one of my favorites and I really wanted it to look great. <sigh> I had far too little time to go back and take more…sooooo boo:( Anyways, I used to wear this top all the time when I worked at Charming Charlie because it fit in with the black and white dress code, but I haven’t worn it much since. I just found it in the back of my closet and got so excited because I had forgotten about it!:)

Do you ever find something you forgot you had? Feels like Christmas doesn’t it?:)

Until tomorrow…

This Is What I Like About Texas

Hi Lovelies!

When Wes and I picked up and moved to Texas two years ago we had a lot of people ask, “Why Texas?”. Well, besides the fact that I lived in Texas during middle and high school and LOVED it. And, besides the fact that Texans have the most pride for their state than anywhere else I have ever been, which is amazing. THIS is ‘why Texas’. Sunday, November 17….85 degrees and sunny. I just don’t understand how you could NOT love that. It was chilly all last week and the leaves are starting to change, it’s beginning to feel like fall…and then it’s 85 degrees. You would NEVER get an 85 degree day in Michigan in November. Ever. This entire weekend was beautiful as a matter of fact. I have to tell you…Michigan has beautiful lakes, but I wouldn’t want to live anywhere but Austin:)

Get The Look:

Top: Charming Charlie, Tank top: Aerie, Denim: H&M, Flats: Payless, Purse: Charming Charlie, Bangles &Watch: Charming Charlie, Necklace: Charming Charlie, Bow earrings: Forever 21, Sunglasses: Aldo

Alright, enough bragging about the good Texas weather. How was everyone else’s weekend?

Until tomorrow…
