Seven Buys for September
Can you believe it's September!? Where has the Summer gone??? Actually, where has 2015 gone?! September is one of my favorite months because with it brings the start of Football season, trips to the Apple Orchard, weather that allows you to be comfortable in both...
Farmers Market Wear
I love the Farmers Market. Something about local entrepreneurs coming together to sell everything from veggies to jewelry to clothing to jams & honey just makes me happy. I could roam the market aisles {in Omaha's case, 3 'wings'} for an entire morning just...
Stripes & Plaid
As we hesitantly tip-toe our way into the fabulous Fall season my wardrobe becomes a bit less bold and color-filled. During the warmer months I love mixing florals with gingham (like this & this!) and unexpected textures in vibrant hues; however as the days...
Weekend Basics {Elevated}
Weekend wear for me often consists of white v-necks, denim, and a simple pair of flats. An outfit like that is so easy to amp up with a fringe sandal or a statement necklace and can go from mundane errands to drinks and beyond. High quality, well-priced white t-shirts...
Short-Sleeve Utility Trench
My body wants it to be Summer all day, every day, but recently my heart has been longing for Fall. Something about being able to sleep with the windows open, Football season, and the changing colors make me feel a sense of calm. Plus, can we talk about some of this...
Back to Black: Jetset Attire
Ahhh, black. The most figure-flattering and universally-loved color out there. I am a huge fan of black, regardless of the season, for its functionality as well as its ability to instantly add a touch of sophistication to any outfit. When I'm traveling by air, I like...
Ombre T-Shirt Dress
Clearly I am someone who loves being comfortable and practical while also being as fashion-forward as possible. I am also someone who is a {major} sucker for a good sale. Some people view a good sale as something that is 'cheap,' say under $20, while I gravitate...
The Black Jumpsuit
There will always be one or two fashion trends that you see on the runway, or even on the streets, that you totally fall in love with. There are also those trends that you admire from afar thinking 'they're great' but just won't work on you for one reason or another....
Teal Check Plaid
Sometimes {ok, fine, lots of times} I run errands while wearing a pair of Nike shorts and a t-shirt from some High School Softball Tournament that should have been thrown out years ago. Occasionally, though, something in my closet jumps out at me and asks to be worn....
Red Tribal Midi
The print of this skirt caught my eye immediately and the soft cotton feel of it sold me, plus I'm a sucker for anything easy & breezy! Its tribal pattern gives it a fun, playful vibe while the red color takes it up a notch. Despite the 'midi' trend being...
