Snow Days in a Colorful Sweater

Fashion•Outfits

It’s officially March and I keep asking myself, “where was this snow back in December?” Many of us were craving the gorgeous, subtle snowfall back in November and December, but it decided to grace us with its presence a little in January, heavily in February and now into March. I shouldn’t be surprised. Typically I don’t expect good weather until May… every good weather day up until then is just lucky. Oh and that 10 inches of snow predicted for Saturday? No big deal…

Dreaming in Yellow

Fashion•Outfits

 The color yellow is symbolic of intellect, energy, agility, happiness, harmony, and wisdom.  “Yellow is an important spiritual color. Some may view this as a symbol of peace and harmony. Symbolically, yellow indicates kingship as it was a Chinese imperial color, but also the color of Saint Peter’s robes. As yellow is also the color of the sun, it suggests that God is on your side.” Recently, I’ve been dreaming in yellow, and my dreams have been very encouraging and motivating. After losing who I was for awhile this year due to so many things out of our control,...

Weekend Casual Style | Monday Mode

Fashion•Monday Mode•Outfits

Time is flying my friends! In just a couple weeks, I’ll be hanging out at my sister’s bachelorette party. And just a few weeks after that, we’ll be at her wedding dress! Wedding plans are definitely coming along – we are currently finalizing our invites, about to book our honeymoon and pick a DJ. Once I have all of this done, I’ll be sharing more wedding content on the blog. I think going through it all is good to share, but it’s even better to share once I’ve been through it! Aside from that, my fiance and I have...

You guys – the PACKERS won last night and I couldn’t be more excited. It was a very intense game there at the end, but they pulled it off with a field goal in the last three seconds. I honestly am not very into sports in general, but I’ve been a Packers fan for years. I remember in second grade, my dad asked me who my favorite NFL team was (very typical for us to sit down and watch NFL games with him), and I said the Packers (silly that he asked considering my parents had been fans long...

Pumpkin Patch with My Pumpkin

Outfits•Shopping

Happy HALLOWEEN week! Yesterday we finally made it to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch! We went to the same one we went to a couple years ago because we remembered that they allowed dogs, so we brought Emma along this time. Of course, how could I resist dressing her up on Halloween week in her pumpkin costume – while at the pumpkin patch. She only lasted about 20 minutes in it before I took it off her, but I think all the kids around us were amused by the little “fluffy bear” dog in a sequin pumpkin costume....

What Happened to Fashion Blogging?

Fashion•Lifestyle

I honestly didn’t know what to title this post because it’s just something I’ve been thinking about lately – well for awhile. I’ve read numerous posts on how the fashion blogging landscape has changed ever since big affiliate networks were introduced. Changing the way fashion bloggers monetize their sites and share information – forever. The reason I’m bringing this up is because last week I almost unsubscribed from one of my absolute favorite fashion bloggers because, well, frankly I’m bored. I think many of the full-time fashion bloggers have found the perfect posting schedule and the perfect outfits that sell...
