<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone!! Ok, so normally I'm wondering how the week flew by right about now but today is a totally different story. It feels like this week is just dragging on...can't it be the weekend again already?! It's all good though because I only have two more nights of work then I'll be off for two days and I already have plans (like usual) LOL Friday I'm actually going to get to see my best friend for longer than a few minutes as we are getting our nails done together then grabbing some lunch. I can't wait!! What are your plans for the weekend? Anyone doing any shopping? If so be sure to hit up those winter clearance sales because all the new spring inventory is hitting the shelves right now and it's super exciting. I'm really looking forward to sharing all the latest new styles with you :) For today's outfit of the week post I'm sticking with winter fashion since many of my friends up north are still experiencing super cold weather so if you're still wanting to rock your winter fashion trends then I have the perfect sweater for you. Not only is it super adorable but it's really comfy and cozy as well. So, what is this sweater and where can you snag one for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Sweater</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this sweater a couple of months back on the clearance rack at <b>Palais</b> <b>Royal</b>. I don't do a lot of shopping there normally but my mom loves it so I thought I'd hop over to the juniors section and see what they had to offer. This sweater caught my eye immediately. I love how vibrant the colors are and the texture is really flattering as well. Another great thing about this sweater is how stretchy it is. It has just enough stretch to fit perfectly but it's not so tight that I can't breathe. At less than $15 on sale it was a steal and I'm so glad they still had one in my size. I don't usually feature too many items I got off the clearance rack because they don't always have any left when I get ready to put a link up for you, but they actually still have it online and it's less than $7!!! How awesome is that?! So, how did I end up styling this sweater and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I had originally thought about wearing this sweater with a pair of red fur casual boots like maybe some UGGs or Bearpaws but after much consideration (and the fact I saw these awesome boots on <b>Wish</b>) I decided to dress up the sweater just a bit and wore these awesome new grey heeled knee high boots that I got for less than $15! All that my outfit needed was a pair of jeans so I chose these cute denim skinny jeans by Lauren Conrad that I got from <b>Kohl's</b>. I felt super pretty and stylish in this outfit which was perfect since I was taking my mom out for her birthday the day I wore this. If you'd like to change it up you could always go for the casual option I mentioned above or just wear a cute pair of riding boots if you want to keep the dressy look but don't like wearing heels. I think a cute pair of black or grey pointed toe flats would look cute as well. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! I never say this but I'm actually glad it's the beginning of a new week. I was so busy this weekend and even though I'm back at work I still feel like I can relax just a little. This coming weekend isn't as busy and I'm even planning to set aside some time to get my toenails done :) So, who's been seeing all the cute new phone cases that are coming out? I haven't really paid attention until recently and now I want like ten of them. LOL For today's must have Monday post I have chosen 5 of the cutest phone cases I could find and am sharing them with you....</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This adorable juice box phone case is just what I need! Do you see what it says? "Bitchin' and sippin'" How cute is that?? I could totally see myself carrying this cutie everywhere...ok well maybe not to church LOL ;) Who remembers the saying "take a chill pill"? If you're a child of the 80s then you most certainly do! This phone case is awesome because it reminds me of simpler times and because it's just too stinking cute :) Panda stuff is super popular right now!! I actually just sold a Betsey Johnson panda backpack on eBay and I have another one if anyone is interested. (You can find it <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-with-tags-Bestsey-Johnson-fuzzy-panda-backpack-shoulder-bag-Furry-soft-/322425870367?ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT" target="_blank">HERE</a>) This little phone case is so adorable that I might just become obsessed with pandas myself :) This poison bottle phone case is too adorable for words!! Be sure to read the ingredients under the skull and cross bones symbol ;) Last but not least is this adorable blue fuzzy phone case. This one is not new but I had to include it because it's simply too adorable not to. This particular one is sold out but I have personally seen some on Wish that are just as cute so be sure to check out their website if you want one :) You can shop all these awesome phone cases <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/super_cute_phone_cases/set?id=217112248" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Many of the world's greatest inventions occurred during the 20th century. We were introduced to airplanes, television, antibiotics, computers, and cell phones to name a few, but the 1900s also gave us some amazing breakthroughs in the fashion industry. Style during this time went from long dresses to mini skirts and long hair rolled into a bun to the awesome pixie cut of the 1960s. Women's roles in society were rapidly changing and with that came the ability to break out of the rigid confines of old world fashion and try new and daring styles. No matter what your personal style is today, it can most certainly be traced back to a style from the 20th century. I like to think of fashion as a revolving door...it always comes back around again and I have been seeing more and more of that as we get further into the new millennium</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">. Are you currently stuck in a style rut and wanting a bit of a change or maybe you just want to update your current style a bit? Check out these 9 style inspirations from the 1900s.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>1910</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I'm starting off 10 years into the 20th century because that's when fashion really started to take flight. During this time women's dresses got a bit shorter and the heels got a little higher. In the 1910s fashion was characterized by a rich atmosphere and women were wearing long silky lace dresses with expensive jewelry. These women spent a lot of time and money looking amazing until World War 1 then they went to the more practical hobble skirts with jackets and boots. I used a combination of these two styles when choosing my fashion inspiration example. I chose this gorgeous lace ankle length dress and paired it with a nice pair of black lace up heeled boots and an adorable little fur purse.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The war was over and women were once again wanting to spend money. But this time the skirts got a lot shorter and so did the hairstyles. Enter the age of the flapper...women who broke conventional rules and flaunted their disdain for "acceptable behavior". These women wanted to be seen as equals so instead of wearing form fitting clothing they wore straight dresses that were boxy yet flashy and cut their hair to boyish lengths. For my fashion inspiration example I chose a beautiful red fringe flapper style dress and paired it with some adorable heeled mary janes and a cute fan shaped bag.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In the 1930s America saw the Great Depression and many women had no choice but to switch to more practical clothing instead of the extravagant items they were used to wearing. Also, many women went to work during this time to help provide for the family so female business attire became mainstream. Most women during this time wore skirts or jeans at the natural waist and accentuated this with a small belt. I used this style for my fashion inspiration example. I chose a long high waisted skirt with a flared bottom and paired it with a black and white polka dot button down blouse, a pair of black and white heeled shoes and an adorable two tone purse.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>1940</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The 1940s saw another World War as America went to war yet again but this time women had to step into formerly assumed male only jobs to compensate for the huge amount of men who went to war during this decade. This required more loose fitting attire and shorter skirts (shin length) to allow for better movement. During this time button down dresses became the norm as women everywhere were donning them and heading to work. The waistline got a little lower as women didn't feel it necessary to have a super tiny waist. For my fashion inspiration example I chose a simple green button down dress with a pair of two tone nude short heeled shoes and a tan purse.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In the 1950s the cars got faster, malt shops became the norm, and girls everywhere wanted poodle skirts and sneakers. Even the women were wearing their skirts wide...the wider the better which is why many ladies during this period would wear petticoats with hoops in the bottom to keep their skirt looking full all day. For my fashion inspiration example I steered clear of the poodle skirt because while I feel this style of skirt might see a comeback I doubt the poodle will. Instead I chose a super adorable black and white polka dot dress with a small belted waist and wide flared skirt and paired it with some cute black heels and a black purse.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The 1960s saw the huge Beatles craze sweep the nation. Everyone loved the Beatles and this gave way to London fashion becoming widely popular in the states. The female silhouette went from curvy to super thin with the introduction of the popular model Twiggy and women everywhere started wearing straight boxy dresses again (kind of like in the 20s) but this time plaids and wild floral prints were popular instead of fringe and sequins and the hem was WAY shorter. Also, the 1960s saw the beginning of the knee high boots frenzy and everyone had at least one pair of "go go boots". For my fashion inspiration example I chose a cute red plaid mini dress and paired it with some black heeled knee high boots and a cute black bag.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">America went to war yet again in the 70s only this time it was met with a lot of opposition especially from the young generation. These flower children as they would soon be called were all about peace and love...and of course some really amazing music! During this decade jeans became more popular for women who loved their hems wide and their waist high. The dresses once again got longer (maxi dresses) and women were wearing tops that tied around the neck (halter tops) as opposed to having sleeves (even though many wore bell sleeved tops as well). Also, women still loved to wear heels but wanted them to be more comfortable so wedges were the solution that came out of the 70s. For my fashion inspiration example I chose a gorgeous pink halter top maxi dress and paired it with some white wedge sandals and a cute white cross body purse.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The 80s were the wildest and most inventive decade of the 20th century. We saw the first car phones during this time and of course style went in so many different ways that you couldn't really go wrong with whatever you decided to wear. The best style from the 80s (my birth decade) was the punk rock style. The makeup was super thick with bright colors and leather (or pleather to be more accurate) became the material of choice for all punk rock chicks. Anything with tons of lace or big shoulder pads was also super popular as long as you knew who you were and owned whatever style you were wearing. For my fashion inspiration example I chose a sleeveless black leather dress and paired it with some cute black heels and a black purse.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Clueless was the movie of the 90s and with it came some great style which shaped the way I personally dressed and how many other girls like me dressed throughout the whole entire decade. Plaid was super popular during the 90s and so were cropped shirts and clogs. Oh the clogs I used to own...Then the late 90s saw the rise of the Spice Girls and fashion once again took a turn only this time toward short shorts and dresses with pleather and platform sneakers being the most popular. For my fashion inspiration example I chose a red plaid mini skirt and paired it with a red cropped sweater, some cute red strappy heels, and a red purse.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day!! Thank God this week is halfway over already. I don't know about you but for me this has been one long hard week and I'm so ready for it to be over. Besides, I have a lot of awesome stuff planned for the weekend and I'm ready to get to it. Friday I'm taking my beautiful mom out to lunch for her 62nd Birthday, then that night my sweetie and I have plans for dinner with another couple, and on Saturday I have a lunch date with a good friend of mine. I really can't wait to get this weekend started so I'll kick off this hump day right by sharing with you my OOTW. For this week I chose to wear an adorable sweater and blanket scarf combo that is super adorable and I know you'll love it as much as I do. So, where did I find this sweater and where can you snag one for yourself?</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I'm normally not a huge fan of the color white simply because I'm a klutz and I always end up spilling something on myself and then I end up having to walk around the rest of the day with a big ugly stain on my outfit LOL but I decided to give this white sweater a shot since I knew I could easily pair it with a scarf of some kind. I found this sweater while on a recent shopping trip to <b>Walmart</b> with my mom and I thought it was so bright and pretty that I had to have it. At less than $10 I knew it would be a good buy even if I did end up staining it :) Unfortunately this sweater is no longer available online but you may still find one on clearance at your local store. I linked a similar one below. Now that I had a cute neutral colored sweater I was on the hunt for a scarf and some boots to complete the outfit idea I had in my head...so how did I end up styling this sweater and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I knew I wanted a scarf so I went to my local <b>Burke's Outlet</b> store where I spotted this gorgeous blanket scarf for only $10! I love this scarf!! The color is so pretty and it's so big and comfy even though I did have a bit of fun trying to figure out how I wanted to wear it LOL. I ended up making a triangle out of the fabric and wrapping the ends around the back of my neck (Pinterest)...it worked great even though the front came down just a little too far in my opinion. Oh well, I was warm and cozy and that's all that mattered :) I decided to pair this sweater/scarf combo with my awesome skinny jeggings from <b>Hollister</b> and these amazing tan knee high boots from <b>Burke's Outlet</b> that my mom got me for Christmas! I love the way this outfit turned out and I can't wait until I get to wear it again! To make this a more casual outfit you could wear a cute pair of white Converse sneakers instead and skip the scarf altogether. If you love scarves like I do then you can choose just about any color and pattern you want and it would look great with this white sweater. If you want to have the dressy look without heels then you can wear a cute pair of flat riding boots or even a nice pair of ballet flats. One of the best things about having a white sweater is the possibilities are endless :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! Aren't you super excited that another week has started...LOL If you're like me then you quite literally had to drag yourself out of bed this morning. It's ok though because in 5 short days it will be the weekend again! Also, for my fashionistas who have a normal work schedule (I'm stuck on the night shift) tomorrow is Valentine's Day and I'm sure your sweetie has something special planned for you :) If you're single then just be sure to do something a little special for yourself tomorrow...get a larger size coffee or buy that box of chocolates you've been wanting so badly. No matter what just be sure to enjoy your day. For today's Must Have Monday post I have picked out 5 of the cutest Valentine's Day items that I know you will love and would be perfect for tomorrow's festivities :)</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love Kate Spade! Everything she makes is so adorable and this purse is just another example of that. This purse will be perfect for tomorrow night and even after. I'd use this purse all year long myself :) Festive phone cases are the best and this adorable red hearts case by Kate Spade is super cute! I really do need this one in my life :) I chose this funny sweatshirt for all my single ladies out there. How cute is this top? I'd totally wear this now even though I am in a relationship LOL :) Pom pom keychains are EVERYTHING right now. I don't think I've seen a single person yet without one of these adorable purse ornaments attached to their bag. This red heart one is actual rabbit fur so if you're an animal lover then you will need to find one that is faux...that's what I always do :) Having gorgeous nails always makes me feel extra pretty so getting a Valentine's manicure would be so awesome! I have seen several different ones but this particular set is my favorite :) If you'd like to have any of these items you can find them <a href="https://www.polyvore.com/valentines_day_must_haves/set?id=216701025" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Saturday! I know I normally post on Friday but the last few weeks have been really busy so I will probably end up posting on Saturday from time to time. You know how it goes ladies...life happens. LOL So, who's ready for Valentine's Day on Tuesday? Are you getting to spend time with your sweetie this year? I actually have to work Tuesday night and my sweetie has a seminar to go to so I won't get to see him :( BUT we are planning to celebrate either tonight or next Saturday instead so at least it's something. If you are planning on going out for the most romantic day of the year (whether it be this Tuesday or this weekend) what are you going to wear? This is always the most important decision for me because I always want to look my very best...and I have an excuse to buy a new outfit as well ;) LOL If you seriously have no idea what to wear then you're in luck...I have chosen 3 different outfits all with different styles so no matter what you plan to do for the big day I got you covered!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#1-Dressy Outfit</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you're sweetie is planning on taking you out somewhere really nice like a 5 star restaurant (you know the really fancy ones you have to make reservations for) then this is the type of outfit for you. You always want to look your very best at fancy places as some of them actually require it so, in my opinion, a nice dress is always the way to go. For my example I chose this gorgeous red lace dress and paired it with some pretty red pumps and the most adorable Kate Spade purse ever! Isn't that little red heart absolutely perfect for the occasion?! If you hate the very thought of wearing a dress (I have several friends who fit into this category) then a dressy pantsuit will be just fine. Just remember that jeans are NOT dressy and should never be worn to a really dressy event. If you love this outfit you can get it <a href="https://www.polyvore.com/valentines_day_dressy_outfit/set?id=216529732" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you're sweetie is planning on taking you out for a romantic dinner but not at a huge fancy restaurant then you'll of course want to skip the fancy dress as well and opt for something a little more casual. Jeans are super casual but throw on some heels and a nice top and you've turned a casual outfit into a dressy casual one. This type of outfit is always my go to for special occasions (as I rarely see 5 star restaurants LOL) because I LOVE wearing heels but don't always want to look too over dressed. For my example I chose a pretty red long sleeve uneven hem top and paired it with some skinny jeans, a pair of beautiful red zip up heeled booties, and a super cute red heart shaped purse. If you're not into heels or just can't wear them then throw on a cute pair of red lace up flats instead. You'll still have that dressy casual look but without the hurting feet ;) You can shop this look <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/valentines_day_dressy_casual_outfit/set?id=216530147" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you're sweetie has decided to take you out for something a little more fun like a movie or maybe a couple of rounds of mini golf the you'll definitely want something super casual and comfortable. Sneakers are always the way to go if you want to be comfy and of course a cute sweatshirt or sweater will keep you warm since it is still cold in most parts of the country (unless you live in Texas). For my example I chose an adorable red off the shoulder heart print sweatshirt and paired it with some black jeggings, the cutest pair of striped sneakers, and a super cute black heart shaped purse. If you're not into this style of shoe, a cute pair of Converse or Adidas would look just as cute and still be really comfy.

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone!! One of my favorite things about having a 3 day weekend is how fast the next week seems to fly by :) I only have two more nights of work then it's time for the weekend again. How awesome is that?! Hopefully these next two nights fly by because I have so much to do this weekend and I'm ready to get to it. In case you haven't already noticed by now, Wednesdays have officially become my outfit of the week post. I try not to overwhelm you with pictures of me in my outfits so I have set aside one post each week to share my super cute outfits with you...unless I happen to have an extra outfit that I'm just dying to share with you LOL. For this week's OOTW post I have the cutest dress/scarf combo that I absolutely love and I'm sure you will think it's pretty awesome too :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Dress</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this super cute dress while shopping at <b>Buckle</b> with my friend Myrna back in August for my birthday. Yes I said August but it was too hot to wear a long sleeve dress at that time so it got shoved to the back of my closet where I recently found it again LOL. I'm sure all my fashionistas can relate to that :) This dress was actually a birthday present from my friend who saw how cute it looked on me and wanted me to have it...isn't she sweet?! I love everything about this dress. It's stretchy but not too much and it's textured without adding too much bulk. Also, the color is great too! I like wearing neutral colored clothing especially when I find a colorful scarf and have no idea what I'm going to wear it with ;) At less than $30 this dress is a steal (especially at Buckle where everything is a bit pricey) and I'm really happy I found it. So, how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I knew I wanted to wear a scarf with this as soon as I got it so I went on the hunt for a beautiful colorful scarf to add some color to the dress. I found this one at <b>Walmart</b> on clearance for only $3 and it came with an extra scarf so I got two for the price of one which is why I love bargain shopping :) As for the shoes, at first I was undecided as to what shoes would look good with this dress/scarf combo then I remembered my beautiful fur heeled boots that I got from <b>JustFab</b> a few years back. They were perfect! I love how the scarf is the focal point of the outfit and gives the whole ensemble a pop of color! You could change it up and wear a pair of flat boots, ballet flats, pumps, or thigh high boots as well. Since this dress is a neutral tan color you can basically choose any color scarf you want or skip the scarf altogether and opt for an awesome pair of bold print shoes instead. No matter how you choose to style this dress just remember to own your style :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! I can't believe the weekend flew by as quick as it did...and I even had a 3 day weekend and it's gone :( It's all good though because I got a lot done for my business this weekend and I now only have 4 days to work this week before the weekend starts all over again. Woohoo!!! So, who has plans for the upcoming weekend already? I'm spending the first part of the weekend with my sweetie and his family then I plan to spend the rest of it lounging in front of the TV enjoying some much needed down time. For this week's Must Have Monday post I decided to talk about the essentials you need for a relaxing night at home :) </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As a fashionista there are certain must have items I need in order to have a cute, comfy, and stylish relaxing night at home. Of course you can really wear anything you want because no one will be there to see you, but I always like to match even when I'm home alone :) A super soft throw blanket is always a must for lounging in front of the TV. Even in the summer I get cold because the AC is always on so a throw blanket is always an essential part of my night :) House slippers are also important because you may need to walk into the garage or outside on the porch for whatever reason so you need to have a pair of these on hand :) Pajamas are probably the most important part of a relaxing night at home. I don't know about you, but as soon as I'm in my house the clothes come off and the pajamas go on. You could definitely say I live in pajamas year round :) Fuzzy socks are another important part of a relaxing night at home because your feet might get cold. Mine are always cold so even in the summer I always have a cute pair of fuzzy socks on to match my pajamas :) The last important piece of this must have puzzle is of course the throw pillow! There's nothing more relaxing then propping a pillow under your feet or behind your back as you watch TV :) You can shop all these super cute items <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/winter_night_at_home/set?id=216280086" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy weekend! This post was meant to go out yesterday but it was a very busy day for me and there was simply no time, but here it is early Saturday morning and I'm sitting here with my coffee making sure this gets out before tomorrow :) So, who knows what tomorrow is?? SUPER BOWL SUNDAY!!! I actually took the night off so I could stay home with my sweetie and watch the game. I'm not usually a big football fan but there's just something about the super bowl that makes me have to watch it every year...maybe it's the commercials. LOL The most important question for all my fashionistas is "what are you going to wear tomorrow"? You know we always look for any excuse to get a new outfit, right ladies? ;) Well I have realized there are two types of women on game day...well technically 3 but the third is the one who hates football and doesn't care to dress the part so we will skip that one LOL...the first is the girl who loves football so much she has to wear a jersey and roots for the team right along with the guys and then there's the second type who just buys cute little team inspired accessories to show team spirit without going overboard. No matter which type you are or what team you're rooting for this year I have some ideas for what you could wear on game day...</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Sports Fanatic</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">We all know these girls when we see them...hanging with the guys and screaming at the TV screen like a lunatic. LOL It's all good I love your enthusiasm and I know what you will be wearing on game day as well...a jersey!! No sports fanatic ever goes to a big game event without wearing her team's jersey so I have chosen two different outfits for both teams to give you an idea of how to simply style your jersey and still look super cute and casual. The first example is for the New England Patriots fan: I have chosen an official super bowl jersey and paired it with some skinny jeans and a pair of classic adidas. Just a cute simple outfit that makes you feel like one of the guys without actually looking like it. The second example is for the Atlanta Falcons fan: I also chose the official super bowl jersey and paired it with a darker pair of skinny jeans but this time I chose a cute pair of red converse instead. I love this outfit!! It's super comfy and casual so you can relax while watching the game with the guys :) You can shop the Patriots look <b><a href="https://www.polyvore.com/new_england/set?id=216112908" target="_blank">HERE</a></b> and the Falcons look <b><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/atlanta/set?id=216121278" target="_blank">HERE</a></b>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Subtle Supporter</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is definitely the category I fall into. I love having an excuse to buy cute new accessories but I'm not so into sports that I would wear a jersey. So, the solution is simple...wear team colors and choose one team accessory to wear with your outfit. If you're a Patriots fan then you want to wear something dark blue and maybe one of the super cute accessories I have chosen for my first example to go with it. There's a super cute charm bracelet, a purse by Doonie & Burke, a Patriots hat, a cute pair of earrings, and a watch. I would definitely choose the bracelet on this one. It's a great fashion accessory that shows off team spirit in a nice subtle way. If you're a Falcons fan then you should wear something red with one of the adorable accessories I have chosen in my second example. You can choose from these super cute earrings, this stretch bracelet, yet another awesome Doonie & Burke purse, this pretty watch, or this gorgeous scarf. I would sport the scarf for sure on this one only with a black top instead of red. You can shop the Patriots accessories <b><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/patriots_fan/set?id=216121903" target="_blank">HERE</a></b> and the Falcons accessories <b><a href="http://www.polyvore.com/falcons_fan/set?id=216122035" target="_blank">HERE</a></b>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone! I'm so glad that it's Wednesday already because that means I only have two nights left of work before my 3 day weekend. I have so much to do this weekend and the super bowl is on Sunday too so I'm looking forward to that as well. Do any of my fashionistas have shopping plans this weekend? You know I do...I think I literally go shopping once or twice a week but I'm always finding great deals to share with you so it's totally worth it :) This week I have found the cutest sweater and matching scarf combo that I know you'll love as much as I do. Not only is it super comfy and a really pretty color, but it's also less than $10!!! So, where can you snag one of these cuties for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Sweater</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this sweater while on a recent shopping trip with my mom (yes she's normally my shopping partner) at <b>Walmart</b> and I immediately fell in love with the beautiful green color and the fact it has a matching scarf. I love wearing sweaters in the winter even if it is a tad bit warm here in Texas but I'm usually always cold anyway so I can get away with it. LOL Besides, this sweater has a thin knit which makes it a little on the cooler side anyway. I was so happy with this sweater and to get it at such a great price made me love it even more :) Unfortunately this color is no longer available online but I still posted a link to this sweater below because there are other colors you may like just as much if not better. So, how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was wearing this sweater on a lunch date with one of my girlfriends and I wanted to be super comfy so I decided to go with a casual look. I paired this sweater with my awesome new Lauren Conrad jeans from <b>Kohl's</b> that I love and my extremely comfortable UGGs that my best friend got me from <b>Journey's</b> a few years back. Since it was one of those rare cold Texas days I actually needed a jacket as well so I found this light tan sherpa lined jacket in the back of my closet (I hardly ever need it) from <b>Walmart</b> that actually ended up matching my UGGs perfectly. That was totally not planned and I think it's so awesome when stuff like that happens :) If you want to be a bit more dressy you could wear a cute pair of riding boots or even heeled boots with this sweater instead. It would also go with a cute pair of ballet flats or even some Converse sneakers for an even more casual look. If you like this look you can follow the links below but no matter how you decide to style it I'm sure you'll look amazing :)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! Are you super excited that a new week is here already?? Yeah me neither but I'm going to try and make the best of it by staying focused and positive. I have a 3 day weekend coming up and I'm really looking forward to that extra day of relaxation time with my sweetie. So, let's kick this week off right with some must have items that I'm sure you'll love as much as I do...if you're a cat lover that is :) That's right, for today's post I picked 5 accessories that are related to these cute fuzzy little creatures. So, what did I find and where can you snag them for yourself?</span><br />

This is now on my Valentine's Day Wish List :) Who wouldn't want to have an adorable cat umbrella to carry everywhere during the rainy winter season? This super cute cat umbrella is perfect for keeping you dry and stylish :) I was really bummed when I noticed these beautiful cat loafers were sold out! How horrible. Now I'm on a mission to find the second cutest pair :) I'm not a huge fan of backpacks but this cat one is too stinking cute! It's perfect if you're a college student or if you just prefer to carry a backpack everywhere. I kinda want one myself now :) If one of these items is now on your wish list be sure to visit <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/meow/set?id=215847657" target="_blank">POLYVORE</a> to find out where you can get these cuties.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Friday. I hope you're having a wonderful start to your weekend. I know this post is a bit later than normal but it's been one hectic day for me so far and I don't see it slowing down until Sunday...hopefully LOL. So, do you have plans for the weekend yet? If so what do you plan to wear? How about something white? Yes you read that right...I said white. I've always heard the saying that you should never wear white after labor day but why not?! There are so many different ways to style white and it's such a classy color that I say go for it!! For today's post I decided to give you some ideas on how to style your favorite whites for winter so you can break those beautiful whites out of the closet :) </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#1-White Dress</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Have a beautiful white dress from summer clearance that you've been dying to wear? Throw on a cute jacket or coat and some adorable booties for an instant winter outfit. if it's really cold where you live you can also wear some fleece lined leggings so your legs can stay warm and toasty while rocking your cute new winter look. For my example I chose the classic black and white combo with a beautiful white dress with black sash and paired it with a black jacket and some black booties. You can choose any color combination you want which is why white is such an awesome color for winter :) You can shop this look <a href="https://www.polyvore.com/classic_beauty/set?id=215691850" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#2-White jumpsuit</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Remember that awesome white jumpsuit that you loved wearing during the summer? Go ahead and wear it to that upcoming dinner date with your sweetie just throw on a jacket and some cute closed toe heels. For my example I went with the red and white color combination which is a personal favorite of mine. I chose a beautiful sleeveless white jumpsuit and paired it with a pretty red blazer and some red pumps. Again you can choose any other color you want and you can opt for flats or little booties instead if you'd like :) You can shop this look <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/red_white/set?id=215690026" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#3-White jeans</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Every woman needs at least one pair of white jeans because the sky is the limit with how you can style them. Winter is the perfect time to break out those white jeans and pair them with an awesome sweater and either some flats or sneakers. For my example I decided to pair these white jeans with the most adorable striped cat sweater I've ever seen and a pair of pointed toe lace up flats. You could also wear a dressier sweater and a nice pair of heels with your white jeans for a winter date night outfit :) You can shop this look <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/adorable_cat_sweater/set?id=215690590" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone! I can't believe it's Wednesday already. Just two more nights of work and I'll be off for the weekend. I get to hang out with a good friend of mine on Friday, my sweetie on Saturday, then I have church Sunday morning. A full yet fun weekend ahead :) Do you have plans for the weekend yet? Is there a shopping trip in your future? If so, I have the cutest tunic for you! Not only is it super cute but it also comes in two different colors so you can choose the one that works best for you. So, what color did I choose and where can you find this tunic for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Tunic</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this tunic while on a recent shopping trip with my mom at <b>Sears</b> and I knew I had to have it. I love anything with stripes even if it's one big stripe across the middle like this one LOL. I chose this pretty pink and tan color scheme because these particular colors look good with my skin tone. The v-neck and the side slits are just extra cute little details that add to the beauty and awesomeness of this pretty little tunic. I'm still amazed at all the cute fashion finds I'm coming across in the misses section of various stores...I guess breaking out of the juniors section rut was a good idea ;) Oh, and did I mention I got this tunic for less than $15? How awesome is that?! There's nothing I love more than finding something super cute then realizing it's on sale!! The online price is currently $40 but Sears is always having sales so you should be able to snag one for way less soon. So, how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Originally I wanted to wear a pair of leggings and some UGGs with this tunic but I changed my mind when I realized I didn't have any leggings that would look good with this. Instead of running out and buying some I decided to go with plan B which is great considering I ended up wearing this as a casual everyday running errands outfit. I decided to pair this tunic with my <b>Abercrombie and</b> <b>Fitch</b> skinny jeans and my new tan heeled booties from <b>Payless</b> that my mom got me for Christmas. I think this outfit turned out very well considering the legs of the jeans were too tight to roll them up to exactly where I wanted them. If you want, you can opt for the leggings option mentioned above but wear some cute pointed toe or ballet flats to make the outfit just a bit more dressy. Regular flat boots would look cute as well if you want to stick with the casual look but don't like wearing heels. I've linked my look below if you like the way I styled this tunic or if you just really like one of the items pictured have to have one for yourself ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! I can't believe the weekend flew by as fast as it did, but I did get a lot done so I'm happy about that. So much to do and so little time to get it done...I'm sure you know exactly what I'm talking about! Hopefully this week goes by fast though so I can get to the weekend again and the ton of stuff that still needs to be finished. I'll start this week off right by diving right in to today's post....all things FUR. Every since I was a little girl I've been obsessed with fur especially fur coats. I always said when I grew up I was going to get the prettiest fur coat in the world LOL. Well, I've been grown for quite awhile now and while I still don't have any fur coats I do have a few things with faux fur which is still super soft, warm, and perfect for winter. I have picked 5 must have fur items to share with you today that I think are super cute and will make great additions to your winter fashion wardrobe.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">These little puff ball keychains are the hottest accessory right now. I currently have 4 of them in different colors and styles and I plan to get more. This particular one is too cute because it comes with 3 different colored mini puff balls. I definitely need this in my life :) This coat is everything! How beautiful is this thing for real?! The fact that it's faux fur is really baffling since it looks so real, but if you're a huge animal lover this will be a plus for you and the price tag is a huge plus for me :) This little red fur purse is the only item listed that is real fur. You can probably tell that by the price tag since real fur is always WAY more expensive than faux fur. I think it's gorgeous but I really wish it wasn't real fox fur because then I could afford it. LOL :) This faux fox fur scarf by Kate Spade is so adorable. I never thought about looking for a scarf made of fur but now that I've seen this one I must have one of my own soon :) If you really love the look of fur then this beautiful fur phone case is perfect for you. It's faux fur which is super animal friendly and I'm sure you'll love carrying around a soft furry case all day HAHA :) Unfortunately the phone case is sold out but you can shop all these other items <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/fuzzy_winter_accessories/set?id=215448868" target="_blank">HERE</a>. (FYI: They have similar phone cases on <a href="https://www.wish.com/" target="_blank">Wish</a> so you may find one you like on there) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Friday! Who's ready for the weekend? I know I sure am! I have so much to do this weekend and so little time to get it done, but I'm ready to dive right in and make this one of my most productive weekends yet. I've been thinking all week about what I wanted to write about today and I was drawing up a blank until this morning while I was looking through my closet trying to decide what to wear. I love the color green and while I have several things in this shade I realized that I hardly ever wear it. I stood there looking at my beautiful green fur boots for a couple of minutes wondering why the heck they haven't left my closet this winter yet when it hit me...green is a hard color to match. Normally I just wear something black with green, but I don't really like the way these two shades look together...my personal opinion of course. So, I started looking at other shades and patterns that might go with the green items in my closet and I realized tan, nude, and brown are the absolute best shades to pair with green. So now comes the question...how do I style these items to make super cute outfits for winter? To help answer this question I decided to play on my Polyvore app for a bit and viola, I came up with 3 different styles using 3 different green items all while sticking with the tan/nude/brown color scheme :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#1-Casual</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">During the winter my main focus when it comes to fashion is being warm and comfortable. A simple green casual sweater is a great way to do just that which is why I chose one for this example. This sweater looks really cozy and I'd love to have this for all my shopping excursions and trips to the mall. I paired this sweater with a pair of denim skinny jeans and some brown boots. These boots are extremely casual and since they are flat will be really comfortable for any outdoor activities that you have to do this winter or indoor too if comfort is your main focus :) You can shop this look <a href="https://www.polyvore.com/casual_in_green/set?id=215252841" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">All fashionistas love to get dressed up for a party or a night out on the town with their sweetie. Green is such a great color for a winter night out and I found this gorgeous little green dress that would be perfect for such an occasion. Yes it does have spaghetti straps, but adding a beautiful leopard faux fur coat like the one pictured would keep you super warm and add to the dressy beauty of the whole outfit. Add a pretty little pair of nude pointed toe heels and you have a great outfit for a dressy night out :) You can shop this look <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/dressy_in_green/set?id=215253281" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dressy casual is my favorite style year round but I don't always wear it during the winter. This outfit has changed my mind! This super cute green hooded jacket will keep you warm during this winter season but add a cute pair of nude heeled boots and you have just turned a simple casual outfit to dressy casual. Skinny jeans and a tan turtleneck sweater add the finishing touches to this adorable outfit and to be honest I kinda want this jacket myself :) You can shop this look <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/dressy_casual_in_green_tan/set?id=215255158" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone! For most of you the week is halfway over but for me it's just starting. I've been off for the past 5 days and I have greatly enjoyed it but it's time for me to head back to work tonight. On the bright side I only have 2 days until the weekend :) Do you already have plans for the weekend? I do...work on my business and hang out with my sweetie, but before I get the rest of this week started I wanted to share with you the cutest little sweater I found at one of my favorite discount stores. So, what is this sweater and where can you find one for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Sweater</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this beauty on a recent shopping trip to <b>Burke's Outlet</b> with my mom. I was browsing through the racks when I spotted the back of this sweater. How cute are these bows?! I fell in love with it immediately and I knew I had to try it on. The sweater is snug in the arms then flares out to fit like a trapeze top which I thought was super cute. Burke's also had this sweater in green but mom says coral looks better on me so I went with this one. I always find the cutest stuff at Burke's Outlet and at less than $10 this sweater was a steal :) So, how did I end up styling this cutie and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I wore this sweater on a day date with my sweetie and I wanted to be pretty yet comfortable so I decided to pair this sweater with my awesome high waisted skinny jeans from <b>Hollister</b> and these adorable leopard print flats that I recently found at <b>Walmart</b>. These are my favorite pair of jeans that I own. They have the perfect amount of stretch and they are high waisted which helps prevent muffin top. Not to mention they are slightly distressed which I love! These little leopard ballet flats are so comfortable and super cute...and they were less than $10! I love wearing leopard print with any solid color and I think these look great with this sweater. If you want to dress up the sweater a little more you can always wear a cute pair of wedges or heels instead of flats. To be more casual you could wear a cute pair of sneakers or UGGs. I chose to not wear an undershirt, but if you would feel more comfortable wearing one make sure it's a neutral color like nude or tan. No matter how you end up styling this beauty just be sure to look good doing it :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday. I know it's a lot later than I normally post but I was feeling a bit sick last night and didn't start feeling better until late this afternoon. I'm guessing it was one of those 24 hour bugs that we all get from time to time...either that or the moonshine I drank yesterday LOL. Regardless of what made me ill in the first place I'm better and ready to conquer what's left of today. I hope you had an amazing weekend. Mine was very busy and productive, but I had a lot of fun getting everything done and spending time with my sweetie :) Since we are well into January already (where does the time go?) I decided that for today's post I'd show you some awesome jackets/coats that are must haves for this winter season and I'm sure you'll love them as much as I do. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I LOVE fur jackets and this one is super cute. I love the vibrant pink color and the leopard print is so adorable! It's also faux fur so if you're an animal lover you can wear it without feeling guilty. It's a little pricey for me, but it's Marc Jacobs so I shouldn't expect to get it for less ;) Leather biker jackets are everything! I need one of these in my life ASAP. Maybe not this particular one because I really don't want to pay almost 5,000 for a jacket, but I'm sure I can find a similar one that's just as cute for a lot less :) Bomber jackets are everywhere right now and I especially love the ones lined with fur like this one. How cute is it?? I would definitely wear this beauty every day and the price really isn't that bad either ;) Abercrombie and Fitch always makes the cutest fur jackets and this puffer jacket is so adorable. They are usually a lot more expensive too, but this particular one is selling on Pinterest for only $30! How cool is that? :) My favorite type of coat and sadly one I don't yet own is the dress coat. This red one is gorgeous! I love how long and elegant it is. It would go perfectly with so many of my dressy outfits that now I feel like I have to have one of these soon...if only I can find one that isn't made of wool (I'm allergic). I do know one thing for sure and that's I will have one of these beauties as soon as possible :) You can shop all these jackets/coats <a href="https://www.polyvore.com/winter_outerwear/set?id=215060595" target="_blank">HERE</a>. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Friday! I'm so glad the weekend is finally here. I'm off for the next 5 days and I can't wait to start doing all the awesome stuff I have planned. Girls night, double date, alone time with sweetie, relaxation day, and finally jury duty on Tuesday (not excited for the last one but at least I have the day off LOL). To celebrate all this wonderful time away from work I decided to write this post about one of my favorite things to do...SHOPPING! Bet you never guessed that one right ;) One thing I like more than simply shopping is getting an awesome deal so I have put together a list of 5 discount stores that I absolutely love where you can get great name brand clothing and accessories for really low prices.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#1-Burlington</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you've never shopped at Burlington before then you need to do so ASAP. They have the best accessories and I love shopping here for purses and jewelry. Of course they also sell clothing too which you can see on my recent outfit post <a href="http://newwardrobes.blogspot.com/2017/01/grey-sweater-dress.html" target="_blank">HERE</a>. I'd say my best score at Burlington was a cute Betsey Johnson wallet on clearance for $10! Yes you read that right!!! You never know what you'll find once you step through the door...it's like a huge treasure hunt and there's nothing I love more than the thrill of the hunt :) You can shop online or find a store near you <a href="http://www.burlingtoncoatfactory.com/burlingtoncoatfactory/Default.aspx" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#2-Ross Dress For Less</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is probably my favorite of the 5 because they have the best prices ever! Just like Burlington, Ross is a huge treasure hunt and around every corner there's a great deal to be found. My best score here was a pair of UGGs for only $80. That was a rare find for me as I've never seen that brand at Ross before, but they do always have adorable Bearpaws for like $40. With it being winter we could all use a cute pair of fur boots :) You can shop online or find a store near you <a href="https://www.rossstores.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#3-TJ Maxx</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I've only been to this store a few times in my life, but every time I came out with some amazing stuff. This is actually a great place to shop for gifts for others especially around Christmas because they always have little gifts sets of various items really cheap. I'd have to say my biggest score here was the cutest Roxy hooded cardigan for only $25. This store is a bit more organized than the others so it's easier to find what you're looking for so if a treasure hunt isn't for you than you will love TJ Maxx :) You can shop online or find a store near you <a href="http://tjmaxx.tjx.com/store/index.jsp" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#4-Marshalls</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Like with TJ Maxx, I've only been to Marshalls a hand full of times but what I love about this store is they have a layaway. There have been so many times I'd be shopping at a discount store and have a buggy full of stuff but before I could head to the checkout I'd have to decide what I wanted more because I didn't have enough money for everything. I know you know what I'm talking about ladies! At Marshalls you can get it all with a small percentage down. My biggest score here was a pair of Ralph Lauren Polo jeans for only $30. Yes...I was really excited that day :) You can shop online or find a store near you <a href="http://www.marshallsonline.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>#5-Burke's Outlet</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love shopping here because they have an awesome rewards program! If you sign up for their Burke's One card (not a credit card) then every Friday you get 15% off your entire purchase and you get 1 point for every dollar you spend. Once you reach 200 points you get a $5 off coupon to use on your next visit. How cool is that? I'm always getting amazing discounts here on top of their already super low prices! I'd say my biggest score here was an awesome pair of Southpole plaid fur boots for only $25. This store is another treasure hunt so be prepared to unearth some great deals :) You can shop online or find a store near you <a href="http://www.burkesoutlet.com/" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone! I can't believe this week is halfway over already! Where does the time go? Not that I'm complaining...I have a ton of things to do this weekend and I'm ready to get to it. I decided to take a few days off next week so I can get everything organized and I have jury duty (AGAIN) on Tuesday so I actually have a 5 day weekend which I'm extremely excited about! So, I really hope the next two nights fly by at work so I can start this much needed break. Before I get to that though I have the cutest sweater dress that I want to share with you. It's not only super soft and comfy but it's also quite warm and stylish as well. So, where did I get this awesome dress and where can you snag one for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Dress</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this dress while shopping with one of my friends at <b>Burlington</b> a few months back and I fell in love with it immediately. Burlington is a great place to find name brand items at really great prices. Of course they also sell brands that aren't so well known so be sure to dig through everything and you might just find the deal of a lifetime :) </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Unfortunately this beauty isn't available online so I linked a similar one below.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> The brand of this particular dress is Derek Heart which I've seen at several different stores including Walmart, but at less than $10 I couldn't pass it up. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> The first thing that caught my attention was the color. I don't normally wear a lot of grey, but this one isn't a flat grey color. It has many different shades of grey and it's textured so it appears a lot thicker than it really is. The second thing I noticed was how soft it was. This dress is slightly plush which gives it that super soft feel and makes it super warm...perfect for the colder days of winter. The deciding factor for me was the style. I love shift dresses because they flow so perfectly and don't hug too tightly around the tummy (I love to eat so therefore I'm prone to bloating) so this dress was the perfect addition to my wardrobe. So, how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The day I wore this dress it was really cold outside, but I still wanted to wear a dress to church and I knew this one would keep me cozy so I decided to dress it up just a little. When I originally bought this dress I planned to wear some black UGGs and leggings with it, but I realized that was way too casual than what I wanted so I changed it to my new pair of black heeled over the knee boots from <b>Wish</b> that I literally got in the mail two days before wearing this outfit. These boots are amazing! I do Wish reviews from time to time here on TWW so I'm always shopping on there, but not everything is great quality. I was very happy with these cuties and for less than $15 they were a steal! They are actually on sale right now too so if you click on the link below it will take you right to them. If these boots aren't for you then you can always opt for the casual look mentioned above or you could wear some knee high flat boots instead. Also, some leggings and a cute pair of ballet flats might look great as well. Don't forget to throw on a cute scarf for some extra warmth and style and you're all set :) Just remember to pair this dress with solid colored shoes and accessories so you don't have patterns and textures fighting for attention. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was super productive. I got a lot of things done for my business and hopefully I'll have it live by the end of next week. Keep your fingers crossed for me :) I really hope this week flies by because I have a 3 day weekend coming up with awesome plans for every single day. Do you make plans for the weekend this far in advance? I always have something planned but I enjoy being super busy so it's fun for me. Has it been cold where you live? Here in Houston it's usually pretty warm even in the winter, but this weekend we had a huge winter blast and it even snowed for like 2 minutes LOL. So, for this week's must have Monday post I decided to feature a few winter must haves so you can stay warm and fashionable when the cold hits ;) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I LOVE Kate Spade so much that of course I had to include at least one of her awesome designs in my must have Monday post...well this Monday I picked two LOL. This white wink face hat by Kate Spade is super adorable and will be perfect to keep your head and ears warm during the cold and windy winter days ahead. (FYI: Kate Spade also has a wink face watch that is soooo cute) :) I have become somewhat obsessed with scarves this year and I think this one is awesome! Plaid scarves are the cutest and this one will be sure to keep your neck warm and your outfit stylish :) I've never been a big fan of the puffer jackets until this year. I like this particular one because the color is so vibrant. You're sure to make an awesome fashion statement and stay super cozy in this beauty :) How cute is this fleece cat sweater hoodie? OMG I think it's just about the cutest thing ever! The fleece will keep you super warm and the adorable cat will make you look cute and in style for sure :) These cat mittens will go great with the cat hoodie and these are by Kate Spade!!! How cool is that? I'm not going to lie...they are a little pricey for mittens, but they are just so cute I may have to get them anyway ;) You can shop all these amazing items <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/winter_wear/set?id=214620005" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Now that 2017 is finally here I've struggled to come up with a resolution for myself that I can actually stick with. Every year it's the same: I decide I'm going to get in shape then February rolls around and all my workout gear can be found laying in the closet untouched and abandoned. Sound familiar? This year I wanted to come up with something great! Something I'm passionate about that will not only challenge me but also hopefully be an inspiration to others. Then it hit me! I'm a fashion blogger right?! I LOVE fashion and helping others to always look their best is a huge goal of mine so why not come up with a resolution that's fashion related? Having a passion for fashion is a wonderful thing, but it can also put a lot of stress on you as well. So, I have come up with 10 fashion commandments that every woman should always follow and there's no better time to start then the New Year :) </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>1. Thou shall learn to love the body God gave you</b> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Bodies come in all shapes and sizes and we as women should learn to love what we were given. I've heard so many women say "If I looked like that person I would be fashionable, but nothing looks good on me the way I am". WRONG!! Learning to love the body God gave you is the number one step to becoming more fashionable. Once you realize that you're beautiful the way you are you can begin to learn how to dress for your body type and enhance all the awesome features that you don't think you have.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>2. Thou shall not body shame yourself or others</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">There's nothing worse than body shaming. If you're constantly looking at yourself in the mirror every morning and saying "Oh I look terrible" or "I'm so fat" then you will start believing it and then others will start believing it. Confidence and a positive attitude are everything! Others feed off your energy so every morning make it a point to tell that person in the mirror she's beautiful and perfect the way she is. And never body shame others! We women have to stick together and lift each other up every single day. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>3. Thou shall dress for your body type</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Never make the mistake of thinking that any and everything will look great on you because that is not the case. It doesn't matter how big or small you are there are certain clothes that enhance your features and others that will look terrible on you. I've made this mistake many times. Last year I bought a one piece jumpsuit that I thought was super cute until I went to wear it. I looked like a little girl trying to wear her mothers clothes. Every body is different and should be celebrated for their differences. It's why there are so many sizes and styles of clothing out there in the first place.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>4. Thou shall not make assumptions based on "how it looks on the model"</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This goes hand in hand with number 3. Just because it looks great on the model in the magazine or the mannequin in the store does not mean it will look good on you. Make sure you try everything on or know your measurements before you buy it. And please don't buy something just because "it's so cute". Yes it may be cute and look great on someone else but remember you want to look your best at all times so always buy clothing that enhances YOUR features not someones else's. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This one is for me! I can't count the number of times I almost cried when the size I normally wear didn't fit. It's so easy to get hung up on size when in reality all clothing is different. I have 3 different sizes in my closet right now and they all fit the same only they are different brands. S</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">izes tend to change over the years and vary from country to country so you may not gain a pound but you might wear a larger size in China. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Remember it's not about the size of the item but how it looks on you.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I love being a fashion blogger because I love sharing my outfits and ideas with people, but I don't want anyone to try to copy my style and be exactly like me. God made us all different and you should look to others for style inspiration not to copycat them. One of the best things you can do for yourself is learn what your style is. You can take the same shirt and make many different outfits and styles with it so make it your own. Always add your own little bit of flavor to every outfit that way it's yours and your alone. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Finding your style will only happen when you are willing to try new things. Not really sure how that new style top that everyone else is wearing will look on you...try it out!! What's the worst that will happen? Ok it may not look great on you but at least then you'll know. This is when fashion gets fun!! I love trying all the new fashion trends each year. Some end up looking amazing on me and of course I then add my own style twist to them and voila I have a new style. Don't ever get stuck in a style rut! With so many new styles coming out every season there's no excuse for it. Always be willing to try anything once...even if it's only in the dressing room. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is a continuation of number 7. Everyone has a comfort zone but this year make it a point to break out of it. For me my comfort zone is the juniors section at every single store I visit. I've been shopping in the juniors department since high school and now that I'm 35 I've decided it's time for a change. I recently visited the misses section of Kohls and found some amazing items that fit great! Your comfort zone may be a certain style or store that you've stuck with for years. This year make it a point to do something different even if you don't like it. At least you can say you tried. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Every fashionista has done it at least once! Remember that outfit you thought was so awesome until you saw the pictures and thought "who the heck let me out of the house looking like that"? Yeah, I've been there. But, this is all a part of trying new things and learning your style. Even the most successful fashion designer has screwed up a time or two but that's what it takes to be great. Don't be afraid to make mistakes because it will definitely happen on your fashion journey...just remember one day you'll look back and laugh. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Nothing irritates me more than going to the store and seeing someone walking around in pajamas and house slippers (Dianne this one's for you). Pajamas are made to sleep in and to wear at HOME! This year take some pride in your appearance. Even if you only throw on some jeans and a t-shirt at least you're properly dressed. When you look in the mirror and see how great you look it will help you feel great and then you will be able to spread your positive energy to others. Always strive to look your very best no matter where you're going or what you're doing.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">These commandments don't seem that hard to follow do they? I plan to adhere to these everyday and hopefully you try to do so as well. Not only will they help you look great, but you will feel better about yourself as well. And really that is what fashion has always been about for me anyway. Looking great always makes you feel great and when you feel great you can spread positive energy more easily to others. This year let's make it a point to do just that. No more body shaming and being hung up on sizes. No more being stuck in a rut. Here's to breaking out of our comfort zones, making a few fashion mistakes, and finding out what our style truly is and embracing it. I hope 2017 is amazing for you and happy shopping :)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone! Who's ready for the weekend already? I know I sure am! I have a hair appointment on Friday afternoon and I'm so ready for it. My hair hasn't had any love in almost 4 months...too busy with the holidays then my stylist called in sick. Oh well, it's a new year and it's going to be awesome!! Speaking of awesome, I have the absolute cutest cardigan EVER to share with you. I fell in love with this adorable cardigan the moment I saw it and I know you will love it as much as I do. So, what is this cardigan that I speak of and where can you get one for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Cardigan</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this cardigan totally by accident while shopping at <b>Walmart</b> with my mom and I knew immediately I had to have it! That's honestly usually the way it happens when I shop at Walmart. They always end up having an adorable little gem that I can't live without. LOL. The first thing that caught my eye with this beauty was of course the red plaid. I love wearing red plaid especially in the winter so this was right up my alley. Then I noticed it was sherpa lined!!! OMG I love sherpa lined stuffed. It's always so soft and warm...perfect for those cold winter days so I HAD to have this one for sure and at less than $15 it was a steal! I guess some might consider this a jacket but since it doesn't have any buttons or closures of any kind I'm considering it a cardigan ;) One piece of advice: go up at least one size from what you normally wear with this one. It can be a bit snug and I actually ended up ripping a seam on mine (easily fixable though). Unfortunately this beauty is no longer available online so I linked a similar one for you below, but there may be one still hanging on the rack at your local Walmart so be sure to go take a look. So, how did I end up styling this cutie and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The day I wore this cardigan it was super cold outside and I wasn't feeling all too great so I wanted to keep the style simple and casual. I wore a basic pair of dark denim skinny jeans from <b>Forever 21</b>, a plain black long sleeve t-shirt from <b>Walmart</b>, and my super adorable black lace up fur boots from <b>JustFab</b>. Forever 21 is my go to for skinny jeans now since they have basic ones for less than $10 and they actually fit pretty well too for the price. Also, Walmart and Forever 21 are the best places I've found for basic solid colored tees whether long or short sleeved. I've had this one for about a year now so it might be time to replace it soon. These boots are the best ever! I loved them the moment I saw them on the JustFab website and I'm pretty sure I got them on sale (it's been a few years so I don't remember exactly). JustFab is a great place to get good quality shoes and not pay an arm and a leg for them :) If you want to style this cardigan in more of a dressy way you could always wear a cute pair of heeled boots instead of the flat ones that I'm wearing. You could also wear leggings instead of jeans for more of a seamless look but make sure to get fleece lined ones in case it's cold outside. I'm sure you will look great no matter how you end up styling this beauty ;)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hey everyone and happy Monday! I hope you had an amazing New Year's Eve. I did absolutely nothing but curl up in front of the TV with my sweetie and watch movies. Maybe next year I'll go out. LOL. I am glad 2017 is finally here. I have so many things in the works for this year and so many ideas to start working on that I hope will help me be able to quit by job and work from home by the end of the year. Fingers crossed ;) To kick off this new year right I decided to feature one of my favorite designers and the weird yet adorable purses that she always comes out with. I'm sure you've heard of Kate Spade right?! I have become somewhat obsessed with her products over the past year and I think there's no better way to start the first Must Have Monday post of the year than by featuring her. So, what super cute off-the-wall purses have I found from her???</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I LOVE the toothy monster face purse. It's super cute and very unique. This is just one example of why I love Kate Spade so much. Of course she has normal super pretty purses too, but sometimes it's fun to have something this cute as an adult :) This unicorn balloon purse reminds me of all the carnivals and circuses I went to as a child. Some clown was always making balloon animals and for Kate Spade to think of this as a design for a purse is simply genius. Such an adorable purse and I'd proudly wear it just about anywhere :) Who else thinks this magic rabbit purse is the cutest thing ever?! I love how fuzzy and adorable it is. I think this would make a great purse for the spring season (think Easter) and I'd love to have one to wear for Easter Sunday. Oh, on the Kate Spade website there's also a rabbit coming out of a black hat purse that is super cute!!! :) I know you've heard of the saying "when pigs fly"...well now they do in this adorable unique purse by the great Kate Spade! I really want this purse and I may ask for it as a Valentine's gift :) This perfume bottle purse is so adorable and of course a great idea for a cute little clutch purse. Unfortunately it's no longer available in most stores but be looking for it to show up in stores like Ross or Marshalls :) All of these purses are both unique and adorable. I think my favorite is the pigs fly followed by the toothy monster face. These are great gift ideas for your bffs birthday or just to treat yourself...we deserve to treat ourselves every now and then right?! ;) You can shop all these purses <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/kate_spade_purses/set?id=214203819" target="_blank">HERE</a>!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy Friday everyone!! I'm so glad the weekend is finally here. It was one tough week at work but I plan to enjoy the rest of tonight and all day tomorrow relaxing with my sweetie in front of the fireplace and watching some TV. So, who has plans for New Year's Eve? Anyone doing any online shopping this weekend? If you've been following this blog for a while then you know I'm OBSESSED with my wish app. I honestly feel it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. Unfortunately not everything you get from there is top quality so I love buying stuff and sharing my opinion with you :) I get to feed my little shopping addiction while helping out my readers...talk about killing two birds with one stone LOL. I've actually been away from Wish for awhile (so I could pay down my credit card), but I'm back at it strong and luckily my first purchase was a huge WIN! So, what amazing deal did I find this time and how did I end up styling it?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>Blue Shift Dress</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As I was scrolling through my <b>Wish</b> app (like I do every single day), I came across this adorable long sleeve shift dress for only $7. I was a little skeptical at first seeing as the last dress I ordered from Wish was horrible, but I decided for that price I could at least give it a try. The hardest part was choosing which color I wanted. All of them are so pretty and I could easily style each and every one, but this bold blue color really caught my attention. This particular shade of blue is not only super pretty but it also looks really great with my skin tone. I was torn on what size to get because many of the reviews suggested that the dress was made too small, but I trusted my instinct and went with my normal size. Boy am I glad I did! The dress was a perfect fit and I love how it looks on me. So, how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I was wearing this beautiful dress on Christmas day to visit my boyfriend's family so I knew I wanted to dress it up a bit and make it really pretty. I had purchased this awesome colorful musical note scarf from <b>Hot Topic</b> on clearance a few months back and I knew it would look great so I decided to wear it with the dress. I was right! The colors blend very well together and I got sooooo many compliments on this scarf that I will keep it forever!! ;) For the shoes I wanted something a little bold but neutral in color so I went with the new boots my mom got me for Christmas from <b>Burke's Outlet</b>. I love these boots so much. They are such a great color to wear with any outfit and they are super dressy which was a huge plus! I think overall the outfit was a hit and I was very happy with how it turned out :) To change it up a bit you could always wear a different type of scarf and throw on some rocking high heels. If you can't wear heels then an adorable pair of flats will look just as good as will some sandals, when it gets warmer of course :) </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Happy hump day everyone! I can't believe that it's Wednesday already. This week has just flown by, but I'm glad because I'm one day closer to the weekend and the New Year :) Who has plans for this weekend already? I do!! This year instead of going to someone's house or to some big event, me and my sweetie are staying home and relaxing in front of the TV. Unfortunately I have to work New Year's Day so for New Year's Eve I just want to relax and enjoy time with my sweetie. If, like me, you also plan to spend the day relaxing then I have the perfect sweater for you. Not only is it super comfy but it's also really cute and will be perfect for lounging around the house or doing a little shopping. So, what is this sweater and where can you snag one for yourself?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>The Sweater</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I found this sweater while out black Friday shopping at <b>JCPenney</b> and I thought it was super cute and I knew I had the perfect boots to go with it. I LOVE wearing sweaters during the winter and I can get a little crazy buying them, but in my personal opinion you can never have too many sweaters...kinda like shoes ;) This particular sweater caught my attention because of the slight sporty look. I love the little stripes on the arms and the number on the chest give this sweater just enough of the sporty look to be cute, but not over the top (FYI I'm not a huge sports fan) The fact that this sweater is also a tunic is a huge plus because I'll also be able to wear this cutie with some adorable leggings in the future. I also love the slits on the sides. I'm a bit hippy so these slits help to keep the sweater from hugging my hips too tightly and of course give this sweater just one more notch on the cuteness factor :) Combine all this together with the fact I got this sweater on sale for less than $10 and it's a huge score for this fashionista!! This sweater is no longer available online so I linked a similar one below. I'm sure they may still have a few on the clearance rack of your local store ;) So, how did I end up styling this cutie and how can you change it up to match your style?</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b>My Style</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">I knew the moment I bought this sweater that I wanted the style to be comfy and casual. I've had an awesome pair of Union Jack Dr. Martens that I got from <b>Journeys</b> for a couple of years now that I hardly ever wear because I can never find anything to match them without wearing just a plain solid top. I was excited that this sweater went great with them so I decided to make this look sporty meets grunge :) Throw on a pair of skinny jeans from <b>Abercrombie and Fitch</b> and I had a super adorable and comfy outfit that I loved wearing. If Dr. Martens aren't your thing you can always wear a cute pair of Converse sneakers instead. In fact this sweater would go great with my white Converse and I may just wear them next time with those leggings I was talking about ;) You can also wear a cute pair of flats or even some fur boots like UGGs. </span><br />
