I’m the last person to buy into trends, but every now and then, I find one I can really get on board with. That’s how I feel when it comes to trousers. They’re a huge trend in 2023, so I recently tried my hand at finding a few pairs that worked for me so I can try them out this spring. I ordered a lot more than is pictured here…
Spring is right around the corner, and I’m already collecting several dressed that I plan to have in heavy rotation over the next few months. Last spring, I was in a colorful mood. Most of my dresses had super bold prints and bright colors. This year, I’m taming things down a bit. I’m loving softer floral prints and solids. When I was looking for some dresses to bring on my…
As someone who has to buy and try a lot of clothing for a living, I find my closet is constantly feeling cluttered. Since I work out of my closet, this can make me feel overwhelmed and mentally cluttered too. I also just don’t think it’s necessary for one person to accumulate like 20 pairs of jeans, right? Every few months, I try to purge my closet. I donate most…
Ever since having Blake, I’ve been trying to figure out what works with my new postpartum body. I felt like my body changed somewhat after having Four, but I’ve noticed a bigger difference with Blake for sure. I’m finally starting to feel more like myself again after nearly six months, but I also find myself gravitating toward different styles and fits of clothing… especially denim. After purging nearly half my…
Wedding season is on the way! If you’re in the phase of life when weddings are a regular occurrence, it’s important that you have a few go-to dress options you can easily grab. I enjoy a good spring wedding for many reasons (*sigh* now I’m just thinking about our wedding, which feels like FOREVER ago), but I especially love any excuse to find a colorful dress. If you can’t tell,…
I’ve finally started having fun putting outfits together again postpartum. I’m still sizing up on almost everything, which I’m honestly totally fine with. I’d rather be comfortable than try to squeeze into something that doesn’t fit great. As you can see, I’ve been wearing a lot of athleisure looks. Honestly, I’d love to say I only wear these when I’m at home and then I dress up when it’s time…
Does anyone else plan their travel look a week ahead of time? No? Just me? I’m oddly OCD about having everything planned out before I travel. I’ve always sorta been this way, but now that I’ve got two kids to plan for, I’m taking things to a whole new level (i.e. planning out my travel outfit). I recently got this knit set from Shopbop and am obsessed with how comfortable…
One of the best things about winter is the comfortable clothes in my opinion. Especially as a mom, I find myself choosing comfort over pretty much everything these days. I absolutely love a cozy matching set whether it’s joggers and a pullover or shorts and a hoodie. Last year, this matching Spanx set was one of my best sellers for the entire year. It sold out several times, and they…
There are *a lot* of events happening in December, and I always love finding fun dresses to wear to parties, family gatherings, date nights, etc. Even when the weather’s cold, I usually opt for a dress. They’re just so playful and I love pairing them with a pair of super cute shoes! I recently bought a number of new dresses that I can wear this holiday season, so I wanted…
When it comes to gifting, I love to give people something that feels like a splurge and that they wouldn’t necessarily buy for themselves. Whether it’s a luxurious robe from Barefoot Dreams or a classic boot like this pair of Uggs, holiday gifting is a great excuse to treat someone you love. Don’t get me wrong, I’m big on budgeting and living within your means, but I do think it’s…
Dare I say one of my favorite things about this time of year is busting out the winter boot collection? I love styling boots with jeans, dresses, leggings, etc. I think they’re one of the most versatile items in my closet! My blog post on how to wear ankle boots is still my most-viewed post of all time. So, clearly y’all love them as much as I do! When it comes…
I feel like I don’t even have to say how much I love my LAKE pajamas. Like if you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you’ve probably seen me post about them. I included them in some of my gift guides this year… and y’all KNOW I packed them in my hospital bag when Blake was born. Since these pajamas are a bit of an investment (totally worth every penny),…
I have to admit that I’d probably live in slippers if I could. Plus, after recently having a baby, I’m all about maximizing comfort, and, let’s be honest, slippers are about as comfy as it gets. I get really excited for winter every year because it becomes acceptable to wear cozy shoes like Ugg boots, which are basically slippers that you can wear out of the house. ;) So you…
Nobody talks about the 4th trimester when you’re pregnant, but it’s the 12-week period right after you have your baby. It’s basically when you’re going through the thick of the newborn phase (sleepless nights, nonstop feeding, crazy hormones, etc.) and still recovering from giving birth. Honestly, I wish I knew better how to prepare myself for this phase when I had Four because I definitely tried to jump back full-swing…
One of my favorite things about being married is getting to buy clothes for Duncan. Okay… there are a lot of other things I love too, but that is pretty high on the list. Duncan has great style, so it’s fun for me to hunt for pieces that I know he’ll like. I consider his style classic and timeless. Of course, he has a ton of workout clothes and loungewear,…
It’s that time of the year, y’all. The Shopbop sale is here! Shopbop is one of my favorite sites to shop from because they’ve always got high-quality pieces that are stylish without feeling too “trendy.” So I always make it a point to check out their sale every year. During the sale, you get 15% off purchases of $200 or more, 20% off purchases of $500 or more, and 25%…
As I am nearing the end of my pregnancy, one of the hardest things is finding clothes that are comfortable but also look put together. This was a big stressor in my last pregnancy as well. I wrote a post back in 2020 about my 2nd trimester outfits and talked about how I really learned how to dress up a pair of leggings. Last time, I mentioned how the time…
Hi friends! If you have been following my pregnancy journey you know I’ve mostly been wearing dresses. BUT since fall is right around the corner, I decided to pick up a pair of maternity jeans from Shopbop. I already have a hard time finding jeans that are the right length for me (I’m 5’3ish for reference), so I was kind of intimidated searching for a good maternity option. I ended…
