Casual Friday

Hey my friends!

The end of the week is here! Hooray! I hope you have some fun things planned (maybe some time by a pool with a good book?) We'll be celebrating my hubby's birthday with some yummy food and great friends. Happy Friday, y'all. (Happy Birthday, Harry)

Here, There, Everywhere

Hey my friends!

I don't know if you know this about me or not but I love to travel. Seriously. On my way home from a getaway, I'm planning the next one. Thankfully, I have lots of fun trips planned for the summer so the wanderlust is somewhat satiated. 

I think I'm going to love traveling in this fringe-y cardigan. It's that perfect mix between not too hot and not too cold that keeps one comfortable on a frigid plane or a windy day. I'm sure I could also make it work over a swimsuit!

Have a happy Tuesday and do something that makes you smile.

Burgundy Skater Dress

Hey my friends!

Hope you had a fulfilling week! Mine wasn't the best but it was better than last week so I'll take it!

I am currently in love with this dress. I bought it to wear in the fall but it didn't exactly fit right back then. I've been trying to eat healthy and workout more (which is so hard..why is it so hard?) and since then have been able to fit into the dress more comfortably! I know this color is more traditionally for fall or winter but I couldn't care less. I love how comfy it is. Do y'all have something that you like to wear regardless of the "appropriate" season? Let me know!

Dress/Bangle: Forever 21

Weekend Getaway

Hey my friends!

The hubs and I are headed to our beloved Chattanooga for the weekend. We are 100% ready for friends, fun, and food. Lots of food. Y'all have to check out the restaurant scene up there because it's amazing!

Have an awesome weekend!

Two Prints, One Top

Hey my friends!

I hope you are having a marvelous Monday and had a wonderful weekend! The hubs and I spent some time with some dear friends we haven't seen in forever. It says a lot about a friendship when you can pick up where you left off like no time ever passed. Friendships like that are so precious!

I love this top. Nothing beats a shirt that mixes prints for you. Ultimate lazy girl fashion.

Do y'all have any pieces that stand alone like this one? Perfect for those days when you don't feel particularly creative.

Top: Poshmark

Necklace: Burlington Coat Factory

Jeans: Express via Marshalls

Booties: Dots (I'm pretty sure this store no longer exists)

Accents of Purple

The genius behind the camera and my good friend Ashley! She's gorgeous :-)

Hey my friends! Happy Friday!

Bringing a super casual look today, with some purple accents that have a bit of a back story.

Stone Cuff: I bought this a while back on The Marketplace powered by TOMS shoes. This is a place where smaller similar brands can list their merchandise. The brand I bought this from uses their profits to help women in third world countries find work. I highly recommend checking the site out! 

Purple Hat: So every year, my church hosts an Artists' Market the Sunday after Thanksgiving. It's so cool to see how creative everyone is. It felt good to shop around knowing that I was investing in local art. This hat was such a cute find!

Do you have any items of clothing that have a story to tell? Let me know!

Pinspiration Part 3: Stripes

Hey my friends!

(Can you tell that I've used all the French descriptive words I know for my posts?)

This last pinspiration is what I like to call "simple yet sophisticated". I feel like this look works for both the office and date night. The pin itself was more pirate-y than my creation but I feel like I stayed true to the spirit (Aargh).

I hope you enjoyed this week's series! I know I did. Sometimes I get stuck trying to think up new outfits to post, so it was nice to have a bit of a guideline. I think my next series will be a 10x10 sometime in the spring. 

Are there any theme type series that you would be interested in seeing? Are there themes that have worked well for you? Let me know!
