Hello from North Carolina! Austin and I are in Raleigh this week for his work conference. I decided to tag along and spend some time up here with him. It always nice to have a change of scenery, right? Especially if you're needing help finding your creativity or dose of inspiration. And once I saw the hotel, it was a no brainer that I wanted to make the trip. If you follow me on snapchat, you know I will be at the pool later this afternoon! In the meantime, I wanted to talk a little about breaking the creative rut. We've all been there. And here are a few things I do to stay focused. ...
The 5 Shoe Styles You Need For Spring
With a new season underway, I bet many of you are getting your favorite sandals out and ready to wear. I know I am! As we say goodbye to some of our trustworthy boots and winter footwear, it's time to welcome new shoe trends for spring. From lace-ups to slides and mules, this shoe season is one to embrace. ...
The Blouse I Own in 3 Different Colors
As a girl who loves basic pieces, I tend to be somewhat selective when it comes to finding closet staples. One of my favorite brands for basics is Equipment. Though it comes with a hefty price tag, I've found that the quality is like none other. Before taking the plunge and investing in my first Equipment blouse, I tried to find a less expensive option. I purchased several "similar" styles and honestly, nothing compared to the quality and fit of the Equipment Signature Blouse. Or at least that is what I thought. My opinion quickly changed after finding this green button down blouse. ...
5 White Blouses Under $50
I don't know about you, but I love a good boho tunic. There's just something about a white, lace blouse that has me excited for summer. And with festival season quickly approaching, now is the perfect time to stock up on your favorite boho style pieces. I wore this affordable White Lace Top last week (and twice since then, but who's counting) with these Block Heels and loved the boho feel. ...
3 Pieces to Update Your Spring Uniform
When it comes to my personal style, I always like to have a few go-to outfits for different occasions. These are the outfits that take the guess work out of planning and are perfect for those days when I am crunched for time or have "nothing to wear". Hey, we've all been there!
For spring, my uniform is quite simple. And though it might be perceived "basic", it's what I feel most comfortable in. Especially if I'm not wanting to spend the time in planning my outfit. The best part about a "uniform", is it consists of the pieces you wear most often (or feel the most confident in).
Here are 3 of my favorite pieces to refine or update your spring uniform: ...
Blue and White Easter Dress
Happy Friday, friends! Easter is only a few weeks away and today, I wanted to share this adorable dress option from Draper James. This Cortland Printed Lace Dress immediately caught my eye and I knew it would be a great option to wear on Easter Sunday. Austin and I will be at church with his family and we are looking forward to getting everyone together. ...
The Essential Black Dress
A simple black shirtdress (I also love this one) is one of my favorite things to wear during the spring or summer. It's an easy option to throw on with flat sandals or pair with a chic pump for date night. I found this dress in New York when I was there for Fashion Week and have been anxious to wear it once the weather warmed up. ...
Spring Outfits For Him + Her
When shopping for the perfect outfit, we hate to compromise between style, comfort, and versatility. You find that soft, comfortable top but it doesn't fit right. Or, maybe you have that beloved, trendy jacket but you can't stand to leave on for more than 15 minutes. We've all been there. Between Austin and I, we shop a lot of brands. And from what we can tell, few companies get both style, comfort and versatility right. If you're looking to invest into an outfit that makes you feel and look great, your best bet is Banana Republic. They have created a new collection specifically designed to be not only versatile but also quite comfortable. When that favorite piece of clothing checks all these boxes, it's worth every penny. Today, Austin and I are sharing how we style some key pieces for Spring and some insight on their new campaign, "What Moves You". ...
A Spring Dress + Denim Jacket
If there's one thing that makes me think spring , it's floral prints & colorful dresses. And with the nice weather we've been having in Dallas, it's easy to see why this floral midi dress is at the top of my list. It's feminine and romantic detailing are giving me all the heart eyes. ...
Black Off The Shoulder Blouse
An off the shoulder top is a closet essential during these upcoming months. And based on the recent trend reports and upcoming collections from our favorite designers, it seems that this off the shoulder craze is not going anywhere. I've definitely taken part in this fashion trend, but I love the look of a simple, black off the shoulder blouse. This blouse is prefect for a casual setting with your favorite jeans and sandals. Or, you can opt to dress it up with your favorite black pants, strappy heels and statement earrings. And while it may look like your basic off the shoulder top, the ruffle details around the neck make this a showstopper. ...
