I’m Wearing Shorts!!!!

16 Jun

I’m wearing shorts!!!!! I never wear shorts besides cutoffs on a beach day- I have just never been into shorts, but I found the cutest pair of flowy belted shorts recently and can’t stop wearing them…..   I’ve been getting a lot of questions about this outfit since I shared it on Instagram a few days back.The look pictured below was so easy breezy to put together but looked amazing! I will link all of the information below. I am a total skinny jeans or dress kind of girl, so I am pretty proud of myself for stepping outside of the box and wearing shorts. I’m actually looking forward to finding more shorts for Summer! I love shorts!

Must Have: Mini Crossbody Bags!

13 Jan

Mini cross body bags are a must have in every handbag collection. They are hands free and just the right size to hold your essentials. Mini bags are perfect for everything from running errands to a night out dancing, these versatile bags are truly day to-night! With so many designers making mini versions of their top-selling bags, it can be a daunting task trying to choose the right bag for you. Hopefully I can help you with that decision. Below are some of my favorite cross body cuties.

Timeless Monogrammed Handbags!

9 Jan

Who doesn’t love a monogrammed bag- or monogrammed anything for that matter?  I can’t exactly put my finger on why, but I just love slapping my initials on any accessory  that I can. This post focuses on two of my favorite timeless carryalls that will be around for seasons to come. Both of these classic shaped bags have top handles for handheld wear as well as a cross body strap for hands free wear(perfect for busy moms). They are both available in an assortment of rich colors and are made of supple leather. The bags are large enough to hold everything but not too oversized or bulky.  If you’ve been looking for an investment bag that won’t go out of style anytime soon- these are the bags for you. They make a statement without being too “showy” or over the top, making them the perfect bags whether you’re a ‘fancy’ or ‘casual’ fashionista.

Cobalt Love!

26 Dec

How gorgeous is this cobalt blazer!!!! Cobalt is a great color because it can be worn year round. I often wear cobalt with white in the Spring and with black in the Winter. This blazer can be thrown on over a little black dress or with jeans and a T-shirt.

Look For Less!

3 Dec

Phillip Lim’s Pashli bag has been a HUGE success among fashion bloggers and bag loving ladies for some time now and the mini version is just as popular. The original Pashli bag retails for upwards of $895  while the mini starts at $695  depending on what material you choose. When Lim collaborated with Target last year and designed a similar version of the coveted bag at a fraction of the price, fashionistas lined up to get their hands on the affordable version and it quickly sold out. Since then, there have been quite a few similar versions but I must say, this Forever 21 version made me look TWICE and it retails for less than $25!!!!! Check it out!
