the brands… studded short sleeve cardi: INC. ruffle blouse: Massimo. skirt: Love Culture. shoes: BCBG.
What better way to embrace summer lovin’ than with a floral mini? I hardly ever wear this skirt because it’s clearly not everyday workable, but every now and then pulling it out just makes me feel special. And really, who doesn’t want to feel special -even if just every now and then? I’m embracing away.
A light and flowy dress made business casual with a khaki blazer. It’s still fairly casual and summery, but for a day with no interviews or big meetings, it works perfectly!
Since I’ve started running, I’ve definitely noticed that I’ve been more hungry. Now, I know I should be filling up on fruits and veggies… but that’s just not as fun now is it?!?
Instead… this is what I seem to go for… Hello Bobby’s Burger Paradise! SO good and crunchified is a must.
the brands… dress: Banana Republic. shoes: BCBG.
It’s been an exhausting week, and it’s only Wednesday…! But for all the stress, there is so much good to be thankful for, so I keep smiling! Not to mention, these shoes keep me incredibly happy as well. I saw them ages ago, and just didn’t want to pay the retail price, but low and behold this weekend the price drop hit and I got them more than 50% off. Come to mama my pretty babies!
It’s war of the shoes today! the brands… heels: BCBG vs. loafers: Tommy Hilfiger.
I knew I’d be running back and forth from building to building at work today, so I decided to bring along a pair of loafers as substitute for my heels during those walking portions of my day. Good thing I have a shoe for every occasion!
the brands… dress: Maggy London. shoes: Steve Madden.
I decided to go with the springy floral silk blend Maggy London dress for the wedding this weekend. The event was beautiful as a rainy day changed to clear and sunny just in time for the outdoor ceremony. I did end up changing outfits before going out again for the downtown birthday bash, but it was worth it to feel dressed right for both events.
It was fitting that I chose this dress on Mother’s Day weekend as my mom was with me when I bought this dress. I am so blessed to have such an amazing woman in my life. Feeling unconditionally loved and accepted is something very hard to find, but something I have always had from her. Plus, she’s a fashionista too, so ya gotta love that! Love you mom!
Living in color – aqua! What can I say… color just makes me happy. Just this week I’ve heard two people say, “I hate the color pink!” – but not me… I don’t think there is a color out there that I dislike! I’m a multi color lover for sure.
You know summer has arrived when weddings start to fill the weekends. This weekend I have a wedding and a big downtown birthday bash to attend the same night, so I’m deciding what to wear and hoping to have a one dress for both option vs. a mid-night wardrobe change (not that I haven’t done that before!).
I’m leaning towards either one of the first two dresses, or just sucking it up and wearing one dress for the wedding and one for the birthday bash. What do you think?
My Target “Skirts Week!” wraps today with this fun little polka dot pencil skirt. This week has seriously flown by for me and I can’t believe it’s already almost weekend time. I adore all of these skirts and found them functional, feminine, and well made. The fit was overall true to size, though I did find the waistline slightly big.
Skirts Week Recap!
the brands… dress: Uptown Girl boutique. purse: Jimmy Choo. shoes: Fergie.
Last pause before I go back to “skirts week”. This was my most recent weekend look, and I love this little dress because it’s bright and unique – plus it has pockets, so you can’t beat that!
While the dress is a great and easy weekend ensemble, I actually ended up looking slightly out of place at a big Harley Davidson shop… I went there because they were supposed to be holding a greyhound adoption event and I was interested in learning more, but turns out the event was canceled so it was just me walking around the Harley store in my cute little dress and heels. They told me I was still welcome to stay and hang out…! LOL
