Good morning and happy Thursday! This has been one of my favorite spring outfits so far for this year. Jean jackets and stripes are always a go-to for me when putting together an outfit. They're easy and effortlessly chic. I pretty much use blush as a neutral and these shoes and this bag have been onconstant rotation with no end in sight! These shoes are honestly my favorite and so comfortable to walk in despite their height. I recently got the sandal version for summer and can attest to saying they're just as chic and comfy to sport around. Now, the yellow cardigan with pink sequins is what gives this outfit all of its charm. You cannot help but smile when looking at it. I never specifically need a reason to wear sequins either, haha! Just because is good enough for me. I typically do not wear too many cardigans, but could not pass this one up. It has such a vintage vibe and the prettiest sparkle to it. I'm wearing an xx-small for reference.

Fancy Feet

in ,

One of my favorite things about fashion is being able to mix and match different types of styles to make an outfit. Here, I'm mixing casual and fancy for a cute transitional look. On that note, happy September! The striped dress is a thicker material with a 3/4 sleeve. Perfect for fall weather. The weather was deliciously cool yesterday so I threw on a jean jacket, which is the one item I continually grab for once fall hits. I'm wearing a size XS in the dress and felt very comfortable in it. Totally a staple item and for only $15.99! Now, onto these gorgeous vintage inspired fancy shoes. Oh, my heart fills with joy every time I look at them! They fit true to size and are completely comfy to wear. I had mine on all day walking around and would not complain about them. They are a mary-jane style with an almond toe and the prettiest floral jewels that sparkle and shimmer beautifully. So eye catching! The block heel is also a big trend for fall.

Striped Fit and Flare

Happy Friday, everyone! It would seem that all I've been wearing lately is stripes! While that is certainly not the case, I do wear them quite frequently. This dress caught my eye because of the beautiful sturdy fabric, midi length, and the way the stripes were patterned. While not vertical or horizontal, these bias stripes compliment the curves of the body. The cut in arm openings also are high enough not to allow any gaping (with the dreaded bra showing) and also make the shoulders and arms appear to be more toned. Win! There is a black leather belt that comes with the dress, but I switched it out for my Vineyard Vines anchor belt. Confession, I had this belt on upside down for about half of the day before I realized it! I was so embarrassed, haha. Oh well, those things do happen every now and then.

We were able to meet up with my good friend Rhina and have some dinner and go shopping. It was wonderful to catch up. One of my favorite parts of the night happened at dinner. This is when Ava met her first boyfriend lol. He was our waiter at an Irish Pub and absolutely one of the best I've ever seen around kids. Ava was enamored with him from the moment she saw him. He would talk to her and play games. She watched for him every time he passed by. It really was the sweetest thing. I made sure to get a photo of the two of them together. Just look at how she's looking at him!

I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend! Below are some of the family photos.

Happy Friday, everyone! I wore this look out for a fun afternoon of mini golf with my brother and his fiance the other day. I'm not one to wear sporty looks too often, but love how different it looks and especially how comfy I felt all day. You can never go wrong with classic stripes, which have a preppy polished feel to them.  I have to laugh because I never wear sneakers, ever!, but I've been wanting to get a pair recently that look chic and can be worn with a variety of outfits. You could wear these with t-shirts or dresses and they still look great. I've had my eye on these marbled sunnies for some time now and finally pulled the trigger to get them. They're so unique and definitely stand out from the crowd!

Wishing everyone a fabulous weekend! What are some of your plans?? Happy Father's Day too!
