The Weekend Edit // .05

Happy Friday everyone! Today I am off to coffee with a few girls from our Home Group and then it's back to the office I go. As many of you know, we are currently working on a few changes with The Teacher Diva. Nothing crazy, but requiring a lot of hands on attention from Austin and I and our design team. Honestly, I've been very nervous about this entire process and have been pushing it back for the past two months. I kept telling my self "I'll get to it later"...well now is later! Any of you struggle with this?  ...

Winter Accessories Under $50

 Hi everyone! I wanted to share this casual winter look from last week. I have been loving wool hats this season and find them so practical for day to day wear (especially when I don't feel like washing my hair). I know that we are gearing up for Spring, but I also know many of us are still experiencing winter! As much as I love this Rag & Bone Wool Hat, my wallet is not a fan of the price. Don't get me wrong, I like to invest in classic pieces just as much as the next girl, but I also know I can find a great wool hat at a much more affordable price. This grey wool hat (under $30) was the perfect solution to get me through the next few weeks of winter. It fits nice and I like that it has a structured brim. I found more budget friendly winter accessories at the bottom of this post to help you get through the next few weeks of winter! Thanks for reading! xx OUTFIT DETAILS:  Topshop Sweater (fit: follow sizing in parenthesis) | Steve Madden Over The Knee ...

5 Essential Pieces Every Girl Should Own

When it comes to fashion, we've seen trends come and go, but the basics always remain the frontrunners in our closets. While, trends can be fun and exciting, a closet needs balance. For me, basics are those items that never go out of style. The pieces you can mix and match or throw on when in a time crunch. I've narrowed it down to 5 essentials that every girl should own...or eventually own! Just click the arrows to shop my favorites as all price points. Comment below and let me know what you guys think. xx A utility jacket like this will go far in your wardrobe. I've worn mine layered with long sleeve or short sleeve tops. It's truly the perfect year round staple! A striped shirt should be one of the most versatile pieces in your wardrobe. You can wear them with other patterns and prints and layer with your favorite jackets and cardigans. I've had this scarf for two years and it is still a staple in my fall & winter wardrobe. I love a chunky knit scarf!  Every girl needs a leather clutch you can use ...

Goodbye, 2015

As I look back at 2015, I am filled with gratitude and the upmost appreciation to you all. It was a great year, filled with new beginnings, challenges and the happiest memories. Change has always intimated me, but the thought of starting fresh with a new year is exhilarating. It's the time for a clean slate, a chance to start over and set new goals. Each year, I set personal, spiritual and work goals. I know goals can seem silly, but as someone who likes to make goals on a regular basis, it only seemed fitting to make a few for the new year. One of my goals is to keep up with a weekly Bible Study. When I was teaching, my co-workers and I met once a week for a prayer group and a girl on my team and I would read the She Reads Truth Bible Studies. We were pretty consistent and the accountability was much appreciated on my end. I truly miss that. My goal is to be more intentional with my spiritual quiet time and participate in a weekly Bible Study, whether it's with another group or just by myself. Another goal I have is to travel more. I know, I know, wouldn't we all love to travel more? But really. Austin and I have been saving our miles and we are anxious to use them this year. I am hoping for Europe, but we will see! As far as work goes, I feel like those goals never end. As you know, I started this blog
