Shredded Details
Shredded detailing is everything right now. Really though, it is! Everything from denim to dresses to handbags are currently sporting frayed and 'undone' aspects and I'm loving it. Ram hems? All about them. Heavily destructed jeans {these!? YES please!}? Give me every...
Elevated Basics
Elevate your basics. That has been my motto lately. I too often find myself sticking with the most simple of pieces when I do not have somewhere 'specific' to go. I know there is nothing wrong with a plain tee {I live in this one and this one}, dark denim {I wear...
Omaha Fashion Week Recap
I hope y'all had FABULOUS Easters and were able to spend time with the ones you love most! I'm so thankful that we are able to say 'CHRIST IS RISEN!' I also have to apologize for not getting this post up on Friday as my first nephew, Palmer Chet, made his way into the...
Easter Dress
Easter Dresses are my favorite. Growing up my mom always bought my 3 sisters and I new dresses for Easter. As we became old enough to help pick out our dresses, it became a tradition to head out in search of the perfect Easter outfit. We always had so much fun...
Powder Blues

Insta Roundup
It's been a hot minute since my last Instagram Roundup, just over 2 months to be exact, so I figured it was time to get another one up. I love correlating my Insta shots to whatever is happening on the blog on any given day but I also wear a lot of outfits that don't...
Workout Wednesday: Weights
Why are so many females afraid of weights? I myself was a bit nervous about them back in the day, but my opinions on them changed one Summer during high school. I thought lifting, especially heavier weights, would make me look masculine and bulky. Not the case....

Spring Dreaming
Spring is just around the corner, right?! I bought bright yellow Daffodils for the house yesterday which means yes. If I close my eyes to smell them I can almost feel my skin getting bronzed and the warm breeze in my hair, but when I reopen my eyes that warm breeze is...
