  • Blue Tobi Jumpsuit

    Blue Tobi Jumpsuit

    Hi Loves!

    So I recently was invited to a brunch hosted by Shane Co. at the gorgeous resort, The Royal Palms. It was the most perfect day. This is still my favorite resort in town. It has a more boutique feel, yet very tropical too. I immediately knew I wanted to wear my new blue jumpsuit from Tobi

    This dark blue jumpsuit is super chic. I love the more tapered leg and the zipper detail at the bottom. I really love the ease of movement and the overall construction of the fabric. This is actually my third Tobi jumpsuit. I love how they fit me so much!

    I styled very modern simple jewelry with this jumpsuit. This long gold tassel choker necklace has been sitting around waiting for the perfect outfit lol.  I also paired my new favorite Jennifer Janesko earrings. They have a sleek modern bar feel to them.

  • Spring Florals

    Spring Florals

    Hello Loves!!

    I am super excited ok probably a bit too giddy with all the pretty florals I’ve been seeing lately. Its so nice to see everything blooming and I feel like this Spring the patterns reflect a happy vibe!

     

     

     

     

    This was my first time visiting this cute tea shop in central phoenix. The location was perfect for capturing this pretty maxi dress. The The Tea Pot is a darling little cottage like house that even has a playground in the back for the little ones.

    I styled very delicate jewelry pieces with this dress because the print was a bit busy already. The shoes are my new favorite platform wedges from a successful trip to Last Chance!

     

     

     

    This was my first time working with local photographer Sarah Hoag Photography. I was super excited to get back these images and I am obsessed! If you are a local blogger reach out to her for your photos.

    Dress: Shein–old; Similar–$25!; Similar

    Wedges: Tory Burch–old , but lots of pairs on Tradesey; Similar

    Necklace: Kendra Scott

    I hope you find pretty floral maxi dresses this Spring. Its my favorite look while it lasts, because soon it will be too hot to wear anything long here in Phoenix haha.

  • LBD with a twist

    LBD with a twist

    Hi!

    I wanted to tell you about the cutest black dress that I found recently. The dress has a classic cut and feel, but the best part– it has a fun surprise. I love a black dress for work or a nice dinner and this dress has a fun pleated peek-a-boo detail which is just so unexpected.

    The pleated detail is bordered by a fine line of colorful jewels which add a bit more of a pop. This dress runs a bit large though. I ordered a size 6 according to the website measurements, but I feel that the size 4 would have still been loose. I think this is a dress that the alterations lady can easily tuck in the sides so it fits more smoothly and not so wide.

    The dress bodice has a higher neck line with a slight crew neck cut. I can totally wear this to work and not worry about moving around in it.  I added a pretty lace-up red trench coat for the rain that was falling that day, but also just because it looked cute!

    I actually love a good rainstorm. I wish it rained more here in Phoenix. It was 95 degrees today and I AM NOT READY FOT SUMMER (yes it needed to be in caps haha). I had so much fun twirling in this dress for this shoot. Shoot me your questions/comments down below!

    Hi Loves

    I am super excited to feature some my Spring fashion wishlist items for you. I feel that my job is to give you Spring Fever haha! I love that the mornings are still brisk, but it is already sundress weather here (sorry my east coast friends). Best news is that each item is under $20–yes its true!

    One: This blush top fits with a loose fit, which I am liking a lot this season. I would pair it with a skinny white denim. I love the sleeve details and am crazy about blush this season. Exact item is linked: Here

    Two: This white clutch is perfect for Spring floral dresses. I love the laser cut pattern and the optional gold chain. Score! Exact item is linked: HERE

    Three: Oh my gosh!! This top is my next must have. Look at that cold shoulder detail, but the sleeves bunched up like they are—sooo cute. #obessed. Exact item is linked HERE

    Four: I have been looking for a floral maxi with a bit more movement. I like a certain draping for my maxi’s. I think this print and style is perfect for a Spring brunch!. Exact item is linked: HERE

  • Tea Skirt Flirty

    Tea Skirt Flirty

    Hi Lovelies

    I recently had the chance to create an outfit for a tea shop inspired look. I wanted to keep it a bit less traditional and little more sexy. I think it came together pretty well!

    This was such a fun shoot arranged by a fellow blogger Katrina Fox. She was nice enough to share her time with two local  super talented photographers with me. Check out Katrina’s blog is you don’t already follow her The Foxy Kat she is as sweet and she is stylish!

    This was my first meeting with Rachel. She is a local Phoenix photographer that I met that day for like for 2 minutes before we started shooting lol. She was very open to my crazy ideas and had an easy way about her so I was able to have fun.

    The wind cooperated nicely this day lol. I loved the high low cut of this skirt and this print so much. It was a lucky impulse buy just the day before too!

    This gorgeous archway is right in front of this cute local Phoenix restaurant. The owners pulled up just as we started shooting and they were sooo sweet. Can you guess where this is? They serve my favorite gluten-free pizza!

     Taffeta Skirt: in stores only–super sale! Rue 21

    Crop Top: old; Similar-Forever 21

    Let me know what you think about this more flirty look vs a more classic tea time dress. Btw anybody have any guesses where this shoot was done?!?

  • Classic Black & White

    Classic Black & White

    Hello Loves!

    I am super excited to share this outfit with you. I had been seeing a lot of gals wearing white jeans lately. My mom had taught me no white before Memorial Day or after Labor Day lol. I becoming a bit more of a fashion rebel nowadays haha!

    This fun top is actually a one shoulder top. I love the silky feel of the fabric. It is an online only piece, which can sometimes be tough to choose. I ordered this in a US size 6 according to the descriptions. It was actually way too big. I wanted to make sure the sleeves wouldn’t be too short (pet peeve of mine). I think a size 2 would have fit perfectly, but oh well another item for the alterations lady.

    I really loved the modernistic collar area. I styled this top with my new Jennifer Janesko earrings. She is a local Kansas City modern jewelry designer. I am obsessed with these sleek long bar threaders she gifted me. I will link my exact pair down below!

    This outfit’s accessories have tons of unique details. Check out this clutch and the metal border.

  • Boho Spring

    Boho Spring

    Hello Loves!

    Its Spring!! Pretty floral dress and pink dress are back, flowers are blooming and my allergies are in full swing haha. I love daffodils and tulips and I am crazy about light and airy dresses.

    This was a cute flirty little dress to wear. The funny thing was that we got sprinkled on while shooting (sorry about the crazy au natural hair). As we finished shooting it really came down hard lol.

    I love keeping the styling to a minimum. Dainty necklace and bigger more boho style earrings were the choices I went with. These exact Ettika earrings are so pretty. I was super excited to pick out my first piece from this jewelry company. You need to check them out. They specialize in handmade bohemian style. All so cute!

    I  wanted to add my new Jord Wood Watch to really play off the earthy feel of this outfit. I kept the rings to just two more rustic ones from my collection.

    These over the knee boots are from last fall but are still my favorites because of they have no heels! Sometimes I just need to be short lol.

    Dress: sold out online–but still in some stores at Rue 21 ($7)–yes for real; Similar

    Jord Chrono Wood Watch

    Hi Loves!

    I am back with a new post with Jord Wood Watches . They contacted me to share that they had designed a new series, the Conway.  This series is actually a men’s series for the company, but I just loved the dark sandalwood color and could totally picture incorporating it into my wardrobe!

    I really love the darker wood on this style. I found that I could wear the watch with a pair of ripped denim or style it with a cute dress.

  • St. Patrick’s Day Fun

    St. Patrick’s Day Fun

    Hi There!

    I know it may seem a bit weird for this Kansas City girl to love St. Patrick’s Day, but I do. It was always so much fun to skip school and go to Crown Center area to watch the parade.

    Kansas City held the title for the third largest parade in the U.S. for years. As we got older you basically called in sick to work and pub crawled the whole day after the parade lol.

    This fun top is right on trend with the cold shoulder look and I really loved how super soft it is. I styled it with a loose pair of boyfriend jeans (ok they are too big on me now so they are more loose than normal lol) and my gray converse.

     

    This shoot was a lot of fun with the wild weather we had that day, but it all came together, even if my hair sort fell apart haha.

    This top is available here locally in Phoenix or online woo hoo! Check out her boutique for the cutest things everrrr. So snag your St. Patty’s Day t-shirt before March 17th or you might get pinched!

  • Classic Lace

    Classic Lace

    Hi Lovelies

    I haven’t worn a really feminine classic dress like this one in a long time. My closet is full of this type of dress. In the last year of really moving and growing my blog I have tried different styles (still never a sheath style–my hips are not right for that kind lol). I have been trying these different styles to grow my own personal style. Although, I have always felt that a simple A-Line Skirt dress flatters my body type really well.

    I love that this dress has great movement and flare to the skirt. Also the lace and the ribbon accents really showed great contrast.

    The back of the dress has a really pretty exposed zipper too! I loved the overall girly feel of this dress, which I would wear to dinner or a fun cocktail event! Where would you wear this dress?
