LEOPARD PRINT

sweatshirt| jeans| sunglasses| sandals Leopard print is going to be big this fall! I personally have always loved leopard print. It’s the best neutral print and mixes well when paired with other prints, such as stripes. I found this comfy Adidas sweatshirt from Nordstrom a few weeks ago. I love the mix of two different leopard prints. It’s the perfect sweatshirt to throw on over leggings, but looks just as good with a pair of ...

CHOOSING AND STYLING A ROCKER TEE

tee| jeans| booties| bag| sunnies Since I love wearing rocker tees and have made them a key component to my style, I thought I would explain my process to choosing and styling one. Let’s begin with how I pick a rocker tee. First thing I look for is a band I’m familiar with. I choose bands based on ones I actually listen to.  I want to make sure I can name songs they sing and not mindlessly choose a rocker tee just because ...

THE GRATEFUL DEAD

tee| jeans| booties| clutch| hoops There is nothing more I love styling than a rocker tee. I have tons of them and wear them all as often as I can. It’s my go to item in my closet when I don’t know what to wear. My favorite thing about any sort of graphic tee, is how versatile they are. Not only do they look great with a pair of joggers, but they can be dressed up with some heels and statement jewelry. And did I mention how comfy ...

THE BAND JACKET

jacket| bodysuit| jeans| shoes| bag This pretty little jacket is currently on sale! It’s a show stopper and a compliment magnet. I’ve seen similar band jackets come out every year around the fall. I’ve always wanted one and completely admire how dramatic they are. This year I finally got one and I’m obsessed with it. This one is by Free People and you all know how I love Free People. Their attention to details is ...

CASUAL MOMMY AND MINI STYLE

^I said “Say cheese!” and he sticks his graham cracker in his mouth! (Toddlers are hard to get photos with) me: jacket| similar jeans| shoes mini: sweatshirt | jeans | shoes Most days I’m wearing a tee, sneakers and jeans because hanging out with this little man means lots of walking and running around! Chasing after him calls for wearing comfy and practical clothes. Usually I shop at Target for Caden, but recently tried ...

PINK FOR FALL

sweater| tee| jeans| shoes| similar bag Love this shade of pink for fall! It’s a pretty muted rose, but goes with so many colors. I scooped up this Madewell cardigan during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale, but it’s back on sale! Extremely soft and cozy, perfect for fall. I also linked some similar Madewell cardigans below. Madewell is quickly becoming a favorite brand of mine. I love their jeans, sweaters, and handbags. My mules ...

HAWAII ROUND-UP PART 2

Rounding up some more things to do in Hawaii, specifically the island of Oahu. This is part two, you can find part one here. Obviously there are tons of things to do on Oahu. We were there 10 days, but that still didn’t seem like enough time. I also did a lot more things while we were there, but forgot to take pictures! I was enjoying myself too much! So let’s dive in! We drove to the North Shore on our first full day there. It ...

STRIPES FOR FALL

sweater| jeans| shoes| handbag Can you tell I’m ready for fall? Sweaters are a fall staple. They can easily be transitioned from summer to fall by pairing them with your favorite denim cutoffs. I found this striped sweater during the Nordstrom anniversary sale, but it’s still a great price. Stripes can literally be worn through out the year because it is a classic print. I loved this sweater because it has marigold in it. That ...

FALL HAT TRENDS

Summer is quickly coming to an end, but as sad as that is, that means all things fall are coming! I decided to do a round-up of fall hat trends. Last year the baker boy hat was really big. This thing was everywhere! Well it’s back for this season and  comes in different materials such as corduroy or faux leather. Another hit that I think will be big is the newsboy cap, very similar to the baker boy hat. Of course, felt and wool fedoras ...

FAVORITE TUNIC

tunic| jeans| booties| sunglasses| bag (old) similar here and here A few years ago I probably would have said no to tunics. I always thought they were too flowy and had way too much material. I’ll admit I was wrong! Can you ever have a top that’s too flowy?! I don’t think so! Tunics are great because they looks amazing with jeans, look wonderful with some denim cutoffs and are the perfect length to wear with leggings. I ...
