If there's one blouse you need to own, it's this Tiered Tunic by Maeve. I love longer tops, so it's no surprise I found this one last week when checking out Anthropologie's 40% Off Sale. Unfortunately, this wasn't on sale, but it was too good to pass up. I actually want to buy it in white and another print!
For an office look, simply pair this tunic black pants (I also love these white trousers) . If you want a little more color, I found these green pants that would look adorable with this top. I love the idea of pairing this with a Nude Pump or keeping it comfy is a pair of flats.
If you're looking for something a little more casual, I opted to pair it with my Current Elliot Jeans and Nine West Purple Flats. This Wool Moto Jacket is (finally) on sale, and I can't help but get excited to wear this through winter and early spring. I love winter whites and this coat is beautiful (and ...

Instagram Lately .06
I am happy to bring back a new instagram roundup featuring some of my recent instagram images. It's been a while since I've posted one of these roundups, but I've had a few requests to bring this series back, so I wanted to include some of my recent favorite photos. Feel free to comment below if you have any questions!
Thanks for reading xx

Cozy Knits
Happy Wednesday, friend! We are halfway through the week and I thought I would share one of my favorite purchases as of late. In my opinion, you can never have too many knits. This Army Green Cardigan (under $30 and comes in pink) and Knit Infinity Scarf have been two items that I seem to wear all of the time. If you're new to my site, you will quickly find that I love neutrals, basics and clothing that I can realistically wear on the weekends, to the office, or for date night.
On a different note, we are shooting our home tour on Friday! I am so excited that we are finished and can't wait to share with you our home. This has been a long project that both Austin and I have spent many hours on. Between building furniture, hanging gallery walls and painting, it's been a process. Are there any specific rooms or areas you want to see? Can't wait to share!
Have a great week and thanks so much for stoping by! xx
The Sleeveless Vest
This week has been a busy one and I am so thankful tomorrow is Friday! I wanted to share with you guys this look from a couple weeks ago. This sleeveless vest has been one of my favorite purchases as of late (and it's under $25). You guys know I love neutrals and when I saw this vest, I knew it was something that would get a lot of wear in my closet.
I wore this outfit to meet some friends for a late lunch at Ida Claire. It combines some of my favorite pieces; distressed denim, a silk blouse, and my favorite satchel. This sleeveless vest was the perfect addition. I also plan to wear it with black denim, black boots, and my cream sweater.

Easy Makeup Routine
While I love to wear makeup just as much as the next girl, I like to keep a rather simple everyday routine. I've had a few requests for a little review and tutorial so I thought I'd share some of my recent purchases with you all! Some of you may have seen me use these products on my snapchat yesterday (theteacherdiva) and if you look fast, you may still catch my video from yesterday's tutorial using these products.
I wanted to share some of old and new favorites starting with this Eyebright Lotion and Moisturiser by Liz Earle. I got these products in the Botanicals Skin Saviours Set from Birchbox and have loved using the skincare line. The Eyebright Soothing Eye Lotion is perfect for refreshing tired and puffy eyes. I apply it every morning with a cotton ball, then follow with the Skin Repair Moisturiser. They smell nice too!
Next up, is this Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation. My sweet in-laws gave this to me for Christmas and I don't think they've ever seen someone so excited about makeup before. As someone who loves trying new products, this has been on the top of my list. So ...
Black Leggings & Khaki Coat
There are a number of items in my closet that I call "essentials", but this time of year, nothing quite compares to a good pair of leggings. You know, the pair that you can wear "as pants" and still feel confident everything is in tact. I wear leggings almost daily during the winter and have found these black leggings to be my favorite.
It took me a while to splurge on a pair like these, but they have been worth the investment as I wear them all the time. I love to wear these with oversized sweaters, capes, or even worn under a dress.
Here is a look that I shot last week wearing these leggings and pointed toe boots (aka the key to longer legs, ha) and a classic khaki coat. The options are endless!
On a completely different note, my zoodle arrived in the mail yesterday and I am very excited to use it. Have any of you used a zoodle or vegetable spiralizer before? I have been pinning a few recipes that I ...
Black and White Layers
When it comes to style, I tend to be more simplistic and minimal. While I love to take part in the trends and wear the occasional statement piece, I feel most comfortable in basics.
I like to look for items that can be worn with a variety of pieces in my wardrobe and this Black Maxi Cardigan (now on sale) is one of those staples. I've worn this sweater so many times over the past couple of weeks (it's a little embarrassing) but it just goes to show how it's one of those quality pieces that will last. I don't own a lot of maxi cardigans, but after this one, I may add a few more in my closet.
Thanks so much for reading! xx

Layering Like A Pro
We've been in full holiday mode this week. Christmas songs playing throughout the house, wreaths hung, and the tree is up! Austin and I are hosting our first Christmas party this weekend and we are very excited to fill our home with dear friends and loved ones. I won't even talk about how our house is in the middle of being painted and we are having furniture being delivered on Thursday, either way, we are looking forward to a weekend of holiday festivities!
This black and white coat has been the perfect solution for our mild December. While, I am looking forward to bundling up in heavy layers, I love lightweight jackets and coats. To add a little color, this red bag was a nice contrast.
I am also excited to share that my necklace, perfect for you gals that love to layer, is BaubleBar's Buried Bauble today. It's only $10 and it comes in silver or gold. I love the minimal look of this Bar None Layered Necklace and have found that it looks great worn as is, or if you add another necklace. Here, I paired it with this initial necklace (under $35
Dutch Braid Ponytail Tutorial + Giveaway
Now that the holiday season has officially arrived, I wanted to share with you a hairstyle perfect for any upcoming festivities. This braided ponytail is one of my favorite looks and I love the messy texture. Gone are the days where every strand has to be in place. Now, we are embracing texture, loose curls, and of course, volume!

1. I recommend this look on day old (or 2-day old) hair. I find that when my hair is dirty, it actually turns out better when doing a braided updo such as this.
Start by spraying dry shampoo all over hair, focusing on roots. I've tried numerous brands, and one that I am currently loving is the Moroccan Oil Dry Shampoo (I use the color light and it helps keep my roots not so harsh). Use at the roots for added volume and a matte texture. Be sure to brush out the powder with a
Laser-Cut Details
After a fun weekend in Denver, I am back home and trying to get in the swing of things. Have I mentioned how much I love Denver? Some of my best friends and I went to celebrate my friends 30th birthday! It is a beautiful place and I could not get over the gorgeous scenery.
I wanted to share a look that I wore last week in Dallas. While this all black look may not be for everyone, I can't help but love a monochromatic look. My closet is highly dominated by neutrals and while try to have a good balance, I always reach for those classic colors. This all black look is one of my favorites. I love the laser-cut details on this dress. It's feminine but also gives off an edgy vibe. While all black can sometimes seem boring, I find that if you mix in textures and different lengths, it can still feel sophisticated and complete the look.
