Blue is one of my most loved colors. It looks good on everyone and best of all, various shades of blue from deep navy to the lightest blue all look great mixed and matched together. This cobalt blue dress continues to be a favorite in my closet. I wore it yesterday and paired it with a navy blazer and added a pop of yellow with my Kendra Scott ...

Half A Sleeve
I absolutely love half-sleeve tops. This one is a recent purchase from Banana Republic and it's so easy to wear and is a great transition piece between our searing hot summers and our (less) searing hot falls. A simple cream and black outfit is always classic and today I added a faux calf-hair leopard print heel for a little interest in an ...
Recent Purchases…
Happy Friday! Today I'm sharing some items that came in the mail recently from Zara and Banana Republic. I got some adorable tops and a skirt for Harper from Zara's baby line. I love that the prices for some of their more basic pieces are really affordable. The shoes and dresses are on the pricier side, so I wait until those go on ...
Labor Day Deals + What I Bought
I was so excited to check out the newly re-opened Zara at the Galleria mall today, but I didn't end up buying anything for myself (more on that later). I headed there around noon today when Harper went down for her nap and I visited the few stores I wanted to check out. While I love being able to try on clothes before I buy them, I don't really ...
Misty Mornings
If the weather forecast and temperature gauge in your car haven't convinced you that it's too hot outside, behold today's photos. I had to deepen the contrast in them in iPhoto because as you can imagine, the entire lens fogged right up in the morning humidity…and I didn't notice until after we took them. Sigh. Getting dressed for the ...
Recent Purchases + Haul Video
After sharing my hair tutorial video recently on my YouTube channel, I got a lot of sweet notes and wonderful feedback about making more of an effort to keep my channel up. I promised to try and film one video per month so I shared some recent purchases today in a "haul video" (I still think that's a bit of a funny term, but it is what it is). You ...
The Boldest Stripe
Can I just say how thrilled I am that I got this dress? And how it's even more awesome now that I've had it lengthened? It's a lovely, stretchy, thick fabric and the bold print is fantastic. Unfortunately, it's no longer available, but I have three other BR options posted below that I think are great alternatives. dress- banana republic- ...
The Slim Pant- Banana Republic’s Sloan Slim Ankle Crops on Sale!
There's not much to say about this outfit--- a dress shirt paired with a slim pant is hardly anything to get excited about. But---I would be remiss not to mention that my favorite Banana Republic Sloan Ankle Crop Pants are currently on sale for $35 in black and $40 for the navy I'm wearing in this photo. I get the tall and they're just ...
The Uniform
Growing up, I went to Catholic school and in high school we wore uniforms. I sometimes hated them, but I'll be the first to admit they made mornings much easier. Two looks have become a uniform for me in the working world--- a simple top tucked into a pencil skirt and a crisp white shirt and skinny dress pants. These combos always makes me feel ...
Dotted Blouse + BR Sale Picks!
You can never have too many dress shirts---they're easy and work just as well with skirts as they do pants. This Banana Republic one with polka dots is a favorite. The blue color goes with everything from neutrals to brights. blouse- banana republic (this nearly identical one from BR is beautiful! USE CODE "BR40DAYS" FOR 40% OFF OF YOUR ...
