Flamingo, Flamingo

Fashion•Outfits

As the end of summer approaches, I have decided to take the opportunity to wear some of my favorite summer pieces before it’s too late!  As much as I love the bright colors, swimwear, floral prints, maxi dresses and sandals, I can’t wait for my favorite fashion season…fall!  Which, in Pocahontas terms (my favorite Disney movie), is just around the river bend.  But until then, here is my farewell to summer. This flamingo print skirt is having one of its last glory days before being stowed away in a summer/spring clothes box for the next six months or so. While I’m a...

Spring Style with Banana Republic #ItsBanana

Fashion•Outfits

While the weather has been temperamental, the spring selection at Banana Republic has not! It has been spot on in fact. This fringe dot sweater is light-weight and perfect paired with any bright color this spring – especially this fire coral pencil skirt. There’s nothing better than a good print and bright color mix. In fact, I quite miss my days of bright colored pencil skirts! It’s not often I get dressed up for work, but with a comfy, cute, bright skirt like this – I think that’s about to change! Check out the hashtag #ItsBanana to see more...

My Favorite Skirt

Fashion•Outfits

Happy Monday friends – who’s ready for a short week? I know I sure am! I had a great weekend, despite not being able to travel to Madison to visit my sister. I was sad, but didn’t want to risk driving in a huge snowstorm in the dark. I’m getting pumped for Thanksgiving and hopefully doing a bit of in-store or online shopping at some point this week/weekend. Am I crazy or have the early deals just gotten insane!? I can’t keep up with it all! Anyway – a little bit about my outfit. I wore this to work...

Leopard, Tweed & OTK Boots

Fashion•Outfits

I’ve had over-the-knee boots on my wishlist for awhile, but could never find a pair that actually fit me. Thank goodness for JustFab! I found this cute, flat pair in wide calf and lots of great reviews from others on how this was the first pair to actually fit them. I love how they elongate your legs. I especially love how cute they look with a mini! I can’t wait to wear them with jeans and some of my dresses. And we are now only two weeks out from Halloween, I am PUMPED. I’m still working on completing my...

Pink Lace

Fashion•Outfits

This dress is one of those dresses that deserves a special event. Such as the bridal shower I attended for my best friend earlier this summer or for a spontaneous date-night with your boyfriend downtown. It might have been raining out, which it has been doing a lot, but that didn’t keep us from having a good time. Gotta love the skyways! I felt fall for the first time a couple nights ago, and I know that sounds weird – but every year there’s that time in August when you finally feel like you can breathe. It is such...

January 2015 Budget

Fashion•Shopping

  It was my birthday month and I’m proud to say I only purchased one pair of heels (for my family trip to Miami in March). I also received this Michael Kors mini bag (I am in love with how cute mini bags are) from ShopBop this month – be on the outlook for it in upcoming outfit posts! Also, just wanted to mention I have kind of been slacking on these updates lately – not because I don’t get to them eventually but I haven’t been putting much thought into my clothing budget and what I actually want...

Black Maxi Dress

Fashion•Outfits

Hello from North Carolina! My boyfriend and I are doing the rest of the traveling to Charlotte today to see our friends. Today I’m sharing an outfit I wore on Sunday when it was crazy hot outside. See that hair? That’s called humidity. Just a few minutes before, my hair was actually cooperating and curled. That’s August for you and today we leave for Charlotte, NC, which won’t be any better for my hair. Anyway… with the high humidity that I was hoping to avoid this year since we have had such a great summer for weather (meaning not...

#Ad Having battled oily skin for years, the heat a #Ad Having battled oily skin for years, the heat and humidity that comes along with summer makes it even tougher to battle breakouts. It's also a struggle to find the right moisturizer that keeps my skin healthy, balanced and glowing all while reducing irritation. This summer has been especially hard as I've struggled with "maskne"! That's why I'm beyond excited to tell you about the Clarifying Oil-Free Water Gel Moisturizer from @muradskincare! This moisturizer is a game-changer for someone like me with acne-prone, oily skin. This oil-free moisturizer helps minimize impurities while balancing your skin's microbiome for healthier-looking skin. Since using this, my skin is clearer and healthier looking! I have battled so many breakouts around my chin and on my cheeks this summer - but am so relieved to be seeing results and seeing clearer skin while also getting the crucial hydration I need. Formulated with hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, ginger root, and Korean red pine extract, this moisturizer will hydrate, balance, and improve the look of your skin as well no matter your skin type or needs! I am telling you, you do not want to pass up adding this product to your routine! It is available at @ulta, @sephora and Murad.com. I am a long time user and lover of Murad products but have to say, this is one of my all-time favorites. Have you tried their new Clarifying Oil-Free Gel Moisturizer? #ulta #sephora #MuradSkincare #MuradPartner

It’s been awhile and A LOT has happened in our w It’s been awhile and A LOT has happened in our world since I last posted to my feed. There is a lot I want to say and I will be posting a lot more soon, but first & foremost...

Black Lives Matter.

I wish I had posted about this in my feed sooner, but I honestly didn’t know what to say or how to say it. I spent way too long overthinking it versus just doing it. I know that’s not an excuse, and I know I have to do better. I’ve been spending a lot of time reflecting and educating myself as well as finding ways to help and be proactive. I am committing myself to do more and do better. I know it’s not enough and I’m not sure it will ever be enough... but I will never stop trying. 

The most important thing I learned is that my silence in the past was unacceptable and a huge part of the problem. I thought not knowing what to say and worrying about saying the wrong thing meant it was ok to be silent. It WAS NOT and IS NOT ok.

I have so much more to learn and to do, but one thing is for sure... I will no longer be silent. I will continue to keep the anti-racism resources link in my bio - as it has been a great resource for me and know it has been for many others. Again, I’m not excusing myself for not posting in my feed sooner but I will continue to share and hope to keep the momentum going 🖤 Black Lives Matter 🖤
Hey friends! How are you?! We made it through anot Hey friends! How are you?! We made it through another *very unusual* & crazy/scary week. I hope you are staying safe & well!

Yesterday we took Emma @emmaminiaussie to the vet for her annual vet check up. It was her first appointment at a new vet since our move, and we had to let her go in alone. My anxiety has been off the charts lately, as I’m sure it has been for many of you, and heightened even more by this. Emma is truly our child, our daughter, and I am always anxious wanting to ensure she’s happy and doing well.
.
Sitting outside in the car waiting for the call from our new vet was difficult, but I’m so happy to report her health at almost 8 years old is wonderful! She’s thriving and it makes my heart so happy. Another great reminder during these times to be thankful for what matters most - your health and your loved ones’ health (including your fur babies 🐶). So with another long caption today just wishing health and safety to all of you right now! And another thank you to essential workers on the frontlines ❤️🙏🏻 #emmatheminiaussie #loveconquersall #stayhealthy
Hello Instagram family… it’s been awhile. I ha Hello Instagram family… it’s been awhile. I have not posted in my feed since February… and so this is going to be a long one since life as we know it has completely changed over the past month. 
I decided I needed a mental break from Instagram - not all social media - just Instagram. I have been unmotivated to post on this particular platform and was constantly posting old photos/photoshoots just to have something to post. So I took a break to refresh. 
Well, as you know, things started to escalate pretty quickly with COVID-19. I was just about ready to start posting again and BOOM. Just like that, everything in our world changed. It didn’t feel right to post my latest outfit at that moment… 
Things are still escalating, but I’m back here today because I’m longing for connection more than ever and because I want to say THANK you to so many people. 
Things are scary right now. They are uncertain and unfathomable. We are all trying to adapt to a new normal. I don’t have much to add to what others have been saying, but I do want to say I’m thinking of and praying for everyone, especially those directly affected by the pandemic. 
I also want to say thank you to everyone putting their lives at risk to help our country and our world during this time. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU to healthcare workers, delivery drivers, grocery store workers, pharmacy/drugstore workers, app-based gig workers out in the field, restaurants who are feeding healthcare workers and feeding children lunches, teachers going above and beyond, to those helping get their parents, grandparents, friends, neighbors and others who are vulnerable the essentials they need to get through this. You are all HEROES and I can never express enough gratitude for what you are doing. 
I don’t have much else to say, but I hope to continue to connect with you all again on this platform. THANK YOU to everyone who is putting an effort into making a difference during this pandemic. Staying home means so much right now if you are able to! We will get through this together if we work together. Stay safe, stay well, and be kind ❤️ #stayhome #besafe #thankyou
Happy Valentine’s Day my love ❤️❤️❤️ Happy Valentine’s Day my love ❤️❤️❤️ love you with all I am 💕💕💕#valentinesday2020 #myhusband #myvalentine
