Oh, Paris

It has been a while since I’ve done an outfit post on here, and I will be giving you a life update VERY soon to explain why…but today…let’s have a look at Paris. We spent 4 wonderful days in Paris last month and I can tell you that it is every bit as amazing as you would think it is. Every single street your turn down their is another beautiful building or monument to gaze at. <sigh> I had this outfit in my mind from the moment we decided our European extravaganza was going to be in the fall. I had been wanting a mustard skirt last fall and never bought one, so when I found this one on ASOS I checked out almost immediately. It was a purchase a year in the making, lol! I really would have loved to have worn it with my nude bow pumps, but lets be honest….heels and traveling just don’t mix. (Yeah, all of those bloggers who wear high heels in their photos in front of the Eiffel Tower are liars…lol!) Get The Look:

ASOS Scalloped Skirt // Nordstrom Rack Top // Target Polka Dot Tights (Similar) // Charming Charlie Bracelets & Necklace // Payless Flats // Old Navy Jacket

I tried to go for a fall colored theme in all of my clothing on the trip. I packed items in a certain color scheme so that I could mix and match my items and get the most out of my suitcase space! I have to say that it worked out SUPER well and I’ll have to work on a post with my packing tips soon! Hope you all are having a wonderful week and I’ll see you all tomorrow for Fit Friday!

With A Flower In Her Hair…

Hi Lovelies!

I have seen headbands worn across the forehead like this everywhere over the past year or so, and I always think that the girl wearing them looks SO cute. I always say that I am going to try it someday, and then I never do it. Probably because I am convinced that I will look dumb and people will think I’m insane. Well, today I’m going to share my first attempt with you! I picked this headband up at Charming Charlie last spring when all of their sale items were 5 for $5….it has taken me almost a year to build up the courage to ACTUALLY wear it. So here goes nothing…

Get The Look:
Denim: H&M (do you see a trend here), Tunic: Target, Clutch & Headband: Charming Charlie, Pearls: Vintage, Bracelets: Charming Charlie, Flats: Payless

Similar Items:

I’m not sure that I would wear one every day, but I think the headband is fun. It gives the entire outfit a whole different feel….and I just felt like a pretty girl with flowers in her hair:) What kind of trends have you wanted to, but been afraid to try?

PS: How do you like my new glittery Bloglovin’ button down below? I love it!

The Lust List: Things I Want

Hi Lovelies!

Welcome to my wishlist! These are all of the things I wish I had this week….too bad I don’t grow money on a tree in the backyard. Great, now I am sounding like my mother….that’s fantastic.

This necklace from Groopdealz. I am such a sucker for jewelery. I think I probably own more of it than 10 people combined…but this is just SO pretty! How can you not love a big statement piece like this? And that cobalt color is to die for!
Can someone PLEASE buy this for me? This has GOT to be comfortable…though I would probably never leave my living room if this was in it.
I have a bow obsession. I mean really, who doesn’t? They are so girlie and wonderful. This little guy is only $5.99 on Groopdealz, meaning I might need to add it to my little finger soon:)
I am such a dress person and this one is on my shopping list for sure! I just love the flowers at the bottom, and that cap sleeve probably makes it super flattering. Can I just note how random the price is though….$34.43? Lol….
Polka dots! I have seen so many of these around, mainly the ones from J Crew…but really who can afford a $100 sweater with all of the other things I NEED to have as well? Yeah, not me….Forever 21 it is then, because $23 makes me happy!
This little guy has been haunting me on other peoples blogs for a while now. It would be great to put all my stuff in to travel to Dallas every month OR to take when I’m doing outfit posts in case I decide I need to switch it up!
In case you haven’t notice I have a nude shoe love. These will be a perfect addition to my collection! Groopdealz has really got it going on with these, they also come in black…and $22 is so easy on my bank account:)
First of all, I love that you can always find the coolest, most unique things on Etsy. This shop will take handwriting you give them and make it into a necklace. I really want the hubby to write love for me and turn it into one….except he has chicken scratch and you wouldn’t be able to read it….<sigh>
These teardrop bead necklaces have been EVERYWHERE! I have been trying to find one that isn’t $30-$40, because I don’t like to spend a ton of money on super trendy things. Well, Groopdealz has it for $10! Yes, $10…that means I can buy 3 for the price of 1 elsewhere…I may just need a few different colors!

What things are you craving this week?

Until tomorrow…

Hi Lovelies!

I don’t know about y’all, but I (even though I am super pumped for fall) am trying to squeeze every last bit out of my summer wardrobe before it’s too late! That’s why today’s post is bright and summery…and coral. Is anyone surprised that my dress is coral? No, I didn’t think so….

Get The Look:
Dress: Charming Charlie
Cardigan: Old (I don’t remember!)
Clutch: Charming Charlie
Belt: Macy’s
Necklace, Bracelets, Watch, & Earrings: Charming Charlie
Flats: Payless

I love this cardigan. It can make a basic dress into an actual outfit in 5 seconds…and let’s be real I like 5 seconds. Especially when it is 7:40AM and I need to leave for work in oh….5 minutes ago! I really need to get a couple more patterned cardigans to help on those sorts of mornings…I’m thinking black and white polka dots next? It would look SO cute over a brightly colored dress:)

What’s your last minute outfit maker?

Until tomorrow…

Rules? They’re More Like Guidelines Anyways

Hi Lovelies!

The end of summer is drawing near, so I decided it is time to get my white pant posts in while I can! Although, I have to say, I’m not a strong believer of the no white pants past labor day rule. Especially in Texas, it’s more like a fashion guideline….for those people in the north who actually have fall and winter. Haha!

Pardon the frizzy, awkward mess that it my hair in these photos, it was extremely humid and actually looked like it was going to rain! (It didn’t.) That’s why my hair is actually blowing in some of the photos! What a nice change from the stagnant, hot weather we usually have in August.

I found this peplum top at Target (yes, I realize I have a problem) just before the Texas Style Council at the beginning of August. I wore it to the Lulu’s clothing swap and got a ton of compliments! I like how it is shorter in the front and longer in the back (mullet top!) And we all know how I feel about teal and coral…..

Get The Look:
Top: Target
White Skinnies: JC Penney
Bag: Charming Charlie
Necklace: Target
Watch & Bracelet: Charming Charlie
Flats: Payless

Well, there you go! Now, I need to think of some cute fall ways to style my white skinnies once labor day rolls past!

How would you bring white pants in to fall?
