Wrap yourself in Holiday Magic! (under $30)

19 Dec

I’ve been wanting a holiday cape for quite some time. They’re cute, comfy, and super festive. The only con when purchasing a holiday cape is that they will be worn for a limited amount of time. So for me, it never felt right to spend a lot of money on a holiday cape. Hence, why I never had one.

I recently found so many affordable capes on She in.  I chose a red plaid cape with gold button detail and already have an outfit planned for it! If you’re looking for a year round cape or a holiday cape, you should definitely check out She in.

Capes and Ponchos Oh My!

16 Dec

If you follow me on Instagram, you already know that I can’t get enough of my $17 oversized plaid blanket scarf. I am not alone when it comes to the obsession- these scarves are everywhere! I wear mine with everything and it’s perfect with or without a jacket as well.  Lately I’ve been pretty into capes and ponchos as well and have found three that are budget friendly and super cute to share with ya’ll.

Happy shopping!

Outfit Of The Day!

14 Dec

Hi everyone! Since I’ve started this blog 9 months ago I have gotten hundreds of emails, comments etc. regarding outfit of the day posts and pictures.  A lot of you like how I do not feature outfit of the day posts and that the focus of this blog is NOT ME and tons of pictures of me me me! However many of you have asked to see more pictures of me and would like me to share outfit of the day posts.  Let me just say that I have always intended this blog to be more about YOU than ME but have come to a compromise that I hope most of you will think is fair.  I will start doing OOTD posts but they will be more like outfit of the week posts……I’ll try to do one OOTD post per week so you can get a peek into my closet without it going overboard.

So…..Here it goes…..my second outfit of the day (actually night) post!  (first one was on instagram) I love my cold Cold rainy day gear!

Outfit Details Umbrella: Target    Grey knit capelet: Forever21   A-line black knit tunic sweater: H&M    Black jeans: J brand      Rain boots: Hunter   Knit wellie socks: Hunter   Bag: Marc Jacobs(Bob’s Memphis trip)  Jewelry: black hair tie on my wrist!!! Haha

Kimono Style

25 Apr

I love kimono style tops, in particular kimono style silky or sheer “cardigans”. I love the open and airy feel they have and how they can be worn as a light jacket and are layerable in warm Summer months. I  love the drapey soft and feminine silhouette of these tops and I have included some of my favorite styles to shop below. These can be worn with a plain tank top or T shirt and jeans or over a solid dress.

How celebrities are wearing their Asian inspired tops.
