Well ladies, I finally did it! I wore my Gilly Hicks white lace top that I got months ago (on May 21st, to be exact).

Top- Gilly Hicks Cardigan- Charlotte Russe Skirt- Banana Republic Shoes- Kate SpadeThis top has a lot of ...

OOTD: Target Dress #3
It's time for Target dress #3 to make its debut! This is just a simple black dress with pockets at the front/sides. It comes with a piece of the same black fabric that you can wear as a belt, but I opted to wear my own belt with it. I love that it's so long, even on my tall frame. I got a size small, for reference, so I'd size down on this ...

It retails for $19.99: Dress- Target Cardigan- Express Shoes- Me Too @ DSW Key Necklace- Forever 21 I just love the detail at the bust on this dress, kind of makes it feel more special than a simple cotton dress ...

Happy Friday everyone! BIG THANKS to all of the ladies who gave their advice on home staging in my previous post---I appreciate the input and I'm gearing up for a long weekend of cleaning and organizing!

OOTD: The Girl in the Green Dress
Happy Tuesday everyone! It feels weird saying that because it still feels like Monday to me, but I'm thrilled this work week will be over sooner! I'm anxious for the weekend to get here because we've totally been dilly-dallying on selling our home and we finally contacted our Realtor to list...so this weekend I'm once again ...
4th of July Trip: Lake Austin!
Happy 4th of July to all of my American readers and of course happy Canada day to all of my Canadian friends! We had a lovely 4th of July weekend relaxing on Lake Austin. It was so nice to just lay out (in the shade, with sunscreen and a hat on!) and to go boating and eat yummy food (I was definitely NOT thinking about calories this ...
OOTD: Lace On Top
You may have seen that I picked up this lacy top last weekend at Zara on sale for $29.99 from $59.90 (I had my eye on it for awhile but didn't take the plunge, hoping for a sale!) I wore it on Monday and I absolutely loved it. Someone even asked me "why I was so dressed up on a Monday?" I think this top has a dressier vibe and I love ...
OOTD & Night: The LBD
Happy Friday everyone! This week felt like it dragged on forever, didn't it? (or is it just me?) On Thursday, I had an awards dinner to attend (our firm won 4 awards--- 3 on projects I worked on!) I wore a black cotton dress during the day and changed into a lace dress for the awards dinner in the evening. I also wore BOTH pairs of my new ...

We are doing a fitness challenge with our trainer where we are part of a team so we are getting measurements done ever two weeks or so to track ...
