Periwinkle
Periwinkle is such an underrated color. Do me a favor...go take a peek inside your closet or dresser and see how many periwinkle items you own. Maybe 1? Probably none if you were like me. Shame on me for having none because the moment I received this dress I realized...
Belted Maxi
Monday, I am not a big fan. It's just a few hours into Monday and I'm already starting my countdown to the weekend. I know, shame on me for wishing time away, but I'm still exhausted from a whirlwind weekend. Cassidy & Josh's wedding on Friday evening was...
Flutter Romper
Does a Romper a day keep the doctor away? Probably not but wouldn't that be great!? Rompers are everywhere right now. From street style mavens to celebrities to the little girls next door, this look is beyond easy. As the humidity creeps upward each day here in Omaha,...
Memorial Day Sales & Deals
Happy Memorial Day Weekend! I love that this 3-day weekend is the proverbial 'start to Summer.' It just makes me so happy! Living in the Midwest means the weather still is not necessarily in full Summer-mode quite yet but I've spent...
Feminine Pinstripes
Pinstripes aren't just for the boys. I use to think that tiny white stripes on a black base were only worn by businessmen who worked long hours. Something about them seemed so masculine which is why I avoided them at all costs. It's ironic to think of me avoiding that...
Cotton Jumpsuit
Jumpsuits are so easy. Jumpsuits that feel like sweatpants but look way more fashionable than sweats? Even easier. When Tobi reached out last month to collaborate, I was so excited; I have been shopping from their website since my days at Iowa State when I needed a...
Neon Maxi
It's Maxi season! Because I wasn't gifted in the height department I tend to avoid maxi dresses. They usually swallow up my frame & figure and require me to wear 4"+ heels in order to not drag excessively on the ground. Not my favorite combination. I'm quite often...
#ThursdayThree
#1 Bacon Chorizo Chipotle Smothered Meatloaf I've gone Paleo for the next 2.5 weeks but am allowing myself cold brew coffee + 1 tbsp of Almondmilk Creamer in the mornings. I've not a big meat-eater so despite only being on Day 4, I'm pretty much over meat. As a major...
Eyelet Tunic
Eyelet details immediately amp up any look. It's true, just think about it for a moment. When you find a top or dress with intricate eyelet detailing you need on minimal, if any, accessories to finish off the outfit. It's as if the accessories are already built-in...
Instagram Roundup
We made it through the week! It's FRIDAY! YAY! I don't do Instagram roundups as must as I could so I'm very overdue with this one. I try to post a minimum of 1x/day on Instagram but only average, at most, 2 outfit or style-focused blog posts per week which means there...
