Casual Date Night Outfit

The recipe for the perfect date night starts with the perfect date night outfit. Depending on the adventure, I typically like to shoot for something casual and trendy. I wanted room to eat so I sported my new favorite shift dress along with my new mules. Oh, I can’t forget the girly touch of red lipstick either.

Every week Wyatt and I make it a priority to spend quality time with each other since we don’t see each other as much as we’d like during the week. We map out our night from start to finish and enjoy every second. This date night in particular was one of m favorites. We tried new things, went to new places, laughed and laughed some more. I swear, I fall more in love with Wyatt everyday. He’s a good one. I treated Wyatt out to some BBQ. We tried a new hot spot called Carve BBQ. It was delicious. Afterwards, he treated me to some Bonnie Brae’s ice-cream because he knows the way to my heart. We talked life and love and ended the night with some Netflix. I’ve got him hooked on Grey’s Anatomy.

I sure do love date night.

With love,

Screen Shot 2016-03-31 at 8_Fotor_Collage

The day has finally arrived. My all time favorite denim skirt is on sale! Catch it now before it gets sold out. You will not regret it. Denim skirts whether midi, flared, distressed can make our make or break an outfit. Anyone remember the awful year 2000 mini skirts or the 80’s denim skirt? Yeesh. Denim skirts have come a long way but my friends, I can’t go a week without wearing one. I love tucking in my favorite t-shirts and blouses into them and finishing the outfit off with some stylish heels. You can’t go through this summer without it so click the link below and get yourself that denim girl.

With Love,

Instagram Mules

IMG_8042

Struggling to find the perfect all-year-round bootie was an understatement. I’ve looked high and low for some comfortable, every-day heeled booties and the searching came to a screeching halt when I found these beauties on the internet. I had the chance to purchase these mules a long time ago but my size sold out instantly. Finally, 8 months later the website decides to restock them. Took them long enough. Once they came in the mail I realized that they are ten times more comfortable than I had imagined.  I love the peep toe action, the color, the height. They bring such confidence and poise to every outfit. FINALLY! A chic shoe that I can trust.

I wanted to share this discovery will all of you since I’ve gotten a lot of questions about them on Instagram. They also come in black! You’re welcome and Happy Shopping! (Linked below.)

Sweet Spring

IMG_2230 IMG_2264 IMG_2261 IMG_2241 IMG_2259

 I’m sure I’ve written this before but Spring is my all-time favorite season. There are many reasons as to why Spring is my favorite, the biggest one being flowers. B-L-O-O-M. It’s like world is awaken again and everything gets a fresh start. What’s not to love about that? Tulips are my absolute favorite pick-me-up. Whenever I need a little boost, my favorite thing to do is go to a flower shop and just go crazy. I currently have all sorts of floral arrangements sprinkled around the house because a girl can’t ever have too many flowers. (Hint Hint Wyatt.) I cannot wait to have a garden of my own someday because I know deep down inside I have a little green thumb.

Dresses feel extra special when worn in the Spring time as well. This dress in particular I’m bringing with me on our honeymoon. I think it’s design and structure is so cool. I don’t own anything like it in my closet. The button-back is my favorite feature, not to mention it’s beautifully fitting. I’ll probably wear this exact outfit, from the straw hat to the strappy white flats on our special vacation because I felt like something out of a movie. A love a good classic, lady-like look.

Dressed To Impress

IMG_2136IMG_2076 IMG_2187 IMG_2132IMG_2138

Happy Friday!

Or maybe not so much. I’ve spent the day sick in bed so since I’m already here on my laptop watching Grey’s Anatomy, I wanted to put up a blog post. My runny nose and all wanted to say hi. So…hi.

 Typing, writing, blogging, journaling: all of these things can be the best remedy when you’re feeling down. Another way I like to stay upbeat and cheerful is by dressing up. I don’t know why it is but putting on my favorite red lipstick and sliding into a chic dress makes feel all brand new again. I don’t dress to impress others, I dress to impress myself. To remind myself that I’m good enough, I’m beautiful and I’m worth it. Sometimes that’s all a girl needs is to feel confident and good about themselves. Us women should empower each other more, rather than pick apart our imperfections. The one thing I cannot stand more than anything is negativity. Positivity and good energy is what I like to surround myself with. That and a good pair of heels.

The chic design of this dress made me feel like a winner. I wore this on a date night out with my soon to be husband and I loved being in it every second of the night. I also did not feel guilty chowing down a massive hamburger because the cut of the dress is made perfect for a full belly. I can’t wait to bring this number on my honeymoon, wherever that may be. Wyatt planned the honeymoon from start to finish and I won’t know where we are going until we get the airport. It better be warm and I better be done with this cold.
