Must Have Monday

Happy Monday everyone!! Normally I'd be really bummed about it being Monday but, Thursday is Thanksgiving and I have the day off so I'm really excited to get this week started so I can get to all the fun :) What are your plans for Thanksgiving? Big family dinner? Quiet day at home? I have been chosen to be the cook this year and everyone is coming to my house so there won't be a quiet day at home for me. It's ok though because I love hosting parties and dinners so I can't wait. Normally I go to someone's house for Thanksgiving and I get all dressed up and bring along some awesome accessories to show off but this year I'm wearing something comfy and cool (since I'll be in the kitchen all morning). For today's Must Have Monday post I decided to choose items that I'd love to show off if I were going out for Thanksgiving. These 5 accessories are super adorable and I know you'll love them as much as I do...


Must Haves
1-Fall scarf (Travel Smith, $59)
2-UGG boots (Victoria's secret, $205)
3-Fox purse (Claires, $12)
4-Leaf earrings (Plukka, $1700)
5-Thanksgiving cell phone case (Amazon, $15)

I'm beyond obsessed with scarves this season and I'm loving the colors in this one. There is a perfect blend of neutral colors to this scarf and it would be easy to pair with just about anything. This particular one is a little pricey but you can always find one on Amazon for way cheaper and probably just as cute. Showing this beauty off at Thanksgiving will make you look super stylish and trendy :) I have 2 pairs of UGGs and many more pairs that look similar but have a different name. This particular pair I have in blue and I only paid $80 for them at Ross. The only downside to Ross and all other stores like it is they are always a hit or miss kinda place. Just because your bff finds something amazing doesn't mean you'll be able to find the same thing when you go back. BUT if you do happen to find a pair of these beauties then buy them because Ross is the cheapest place I have found. These will be so stylish and comfy to show off at Thanksgiving ;) I LOVE this adorable little fox purse. I want it soooo bad and it's only $12. I may have to swing by Claires and see if they have any more. This will show off your fun side at Thanksgiving and everyone will be obsessing over your new bag :) These leaf earrings are gorgeous!! I think they are so perfect for a large fall gathering like Thanksgiving dinner and of course any other time you want to get dressed up this year. This particular pair is real gold with diamonds and therefore very expensive but I'm sure you can find a cute knockoff that will look just as great. Wearing these beauties will tell everyone how much you love fall ;) AHHHH another cell phone case!! I know I always add one, but there are soooo many different ones that it's hard not to. This Happy Thanksgiving one is so adorable and makes you look very festive when you use it. If I could I'd change my cell phone case with every new outfit I wore, but that won't be possible for a while LOL :) You can shop all these items HERE. 


Aren't these items awesome?! Which one is your favorite? What's your favorite accessory to show off on Thanksgiving? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love by sharing this post with all your friends who would love these accessories as much as I do. I hope you have an amazing Monday and happy shopping :)

3 Fall Wedding Outfit Ideas

Hey everyone and happy Friday!! I'm so glad the weekend is finally here. I have so much to do and I'm ready to tackle all of it head on. Before I get to my super busy and exciting weekend I'd like to share with you some outfit ideas I have for any fall weddings you plan to attend this season. I came up with the idea for this post when I attended a friends wedding last weekend and realized that some women really don't know how to dress for or what to wear to a wedding. First I'd like to start off by saying there really is no particular "dress code" for a wedding (unless the couple includes one in the invitation), but there are a few unspoken rules that one should follow. 1-nothing too casual like distressed jeans. 2-only the bride wears all white. 3-don't show off too much skin. I'm sure there are more and I may explore these rules on a later post, but today I just want to show you some ideas to help you look your best. I have chosen 3 of my favorite looks for you and of course I included some pictures of the outfit I wore last weekend since I know you've been dying to see it. LOL 


#1-Classic red dress
I love wearing the color red and it's so perfect for a fall wedding especially a deeper red color like the one in this example. I also chose one with long sleeves since it's a little cooler in the fall, but you can always wear one with shorter sleeves and throw on a cute dressy cardigan or jacket. To style this dress I chose a pair of black pointed toe heels and black accessories. Normally I shy away from wearing black shoes with a red dress, but since this is a darker shade of red they compliment the dress very well. This is the perfect outfit for my fashionistas who want to look super sexy but not over the top. You can shop this look HERE.


#2-Little black dress
I've heard people say you shouldn't wear black to a wedding and my response is always WHY NOT?? Black is not only very dressy and classic but it's also very slimming. Black is probably one of the best colors to wear to any formal event including a wedding. The trick is to not wear ALL black. Wear a bold color shoe with matching accessories to make it fun and stylish. I decided to go with the color white for this example. Remember the second rule is to not wear all white not that you can't wear some white. And besides black and white is super classy and makes almost any outfit look more polished. For my example I chose a gorgeous pair of black and white heels and paired them with white accessories. This is the perfect outfit for my fashionistas who want to keep it simple and classy. You can shop this look HERE.


#3-Floral dress
Floral is my absolute favorite print to wear anytime of the year and to just about any event including weddings. Floral is so fun and romantic that a wedding is THE perfect place to wear it. The fun thing about wearing floral is the sky is the limit with color. Choose the color that looks best on you and go find a dress with a floral print in that color. For this example I chose a neutral tan colored floral dress that I think is gorgeous. The long bell sleeves make the whole outfit seem more whimsical and romantic which I love. I paired this beautiful dress with a pair of tan pointed toe flats, a tan purse, and diamond accessories. This is the perfect outfit for my romantic fashionistas who want to look super adorable and fun. You can shop this look HERE.


My Outfit
The colors of the wedding I attended were burgundy and black so I decided to find a black dress with a beautiful floral pattern. This beauty I found at Forever 21 for less than $20 and the fit is amazing. I fell in love with this dress the moment I tried it on because of the huge bell sleeves. This dress made me feel really pretty and dressy but not enough to upstage the bride ;) I wanted to incorporate the burgundy color into my outfit so I threw on these awesome burgundy booties from JustFab that I've had FOREVER!! I think they complimented the dress very well and I was very happy with my decision. You can find this dress HERE but sadly these beautiful shoes are no longer available. 




Who's planning on attending a wedding anytime soon? Which style do you see yourself wearing? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love and share this post with all your friends who may have an upcoming wedding to attend. I hope you have an amazing weekend and happy shopping :)

Red Plaid Fringe Tunic

Hey everyone and happy hump day!! I'm so excited this week is halfway over because I have another really busy weekend ahead of me and I can't wait to get it started. How is your week going so far? Mine's been somewhat hectic with trying to get my new business off the ground. There's been many days with lack of sleep, but I know it will all be worth it in the end. One down side is I haven't been able to do any Christmas shopping yet. I'm one of those people who usually have all of my Christmas bought by the end of October, but hopefully I'll get my shopping done soon. Have you started shopping yet? Are you considering getting clothing for anyone? If not, why not treat yourself and buy a new outfit to wear for one of the many holiday gatherings you have coming up?! If you're a lover of plaid then I have the perfect outfit for you. It's super cute and doesn't cost an arm and a leg ;) So, what is it and where can you snag one for yourself?


The Tunic
I'm normally not a huge boutique shopper, but I heard about a new one opening in my town so I decided to give it a shot. The name of the boutique is Pruitt and Taylor and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I really liked their inventory. This particular red plaid fringe tunic was the first thing that caught my eye and since I LOVE red plaid I decided to try it on. I've always heard boutique clothing runs a little small, but that wasn't the case with this item. I loved the way it fit and the material was so soft that I knew it was going home with me. This beauty was also less than $40 which was a real plus because I love a good bargain :) So how did I end up styling this beauty and how can you change it up to match your style?


My Style
I wanted to look a little dressy but still comfortable so I decided to throw on this beautiful thick black scarf that I also purchased from Pruitt and Taylor, a pair of fleece lined leggings from Kohl's, and my favorite new go to black fall/winter booties from Walmart. This scarf is so soft and comfortable to wear. I'm so happy a little cool front came through the day I wore this because the scarf really makes the outfit that much cuter. These leggings I've had since last year and I love them so much. I'll probably end up wearing them until they fall apart. LOL. THESE BOOTIES!!! There's not much else to say than these booties are amazing! I'm shocked that I found such an amazing pair of booties at Walmart of all places :) You can change up this look a bit by not wearing the scarf or leggings and opting for a cute pair of flats instead. Also, a pair of knee high boots would look cute as well.

Isn't this tunic adorable? How would you wear it differently? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love and share this post with all your friends who would love this tunic or hint to them that you'd like one for Christmas. I hope you have an amazing day and happy shopping :)

Must Have Monday

Hey everyone and happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty hectic. I was super busy but I got a lot of stuff knocked off my to do list so I'm pretty happy about that. The wedding I attended on Saturday was beautiful and I wish the happy couple, Ryan and Joye all the happiness in the world :) It also gave me an idea for a new post which should be up this Friday. On a sad note, a family friend passed away yesterday afternoon at only 31 years old. Please keep this young lady's family in your thoughts and prayers. It was a crazy weekend with very extreme ups and downs, but I finally made it to Monday. Normally I'm not a huge fan of Monday, but I'm just ready to get back to everyday life. For today's Must Have Monday post I decided to focus on the classic black and white theme. This color combination is very classy and I always feel so dressed up and polished when I wear it. I have chosen 5 accessories that not only fit this theme but are also super cute and now on my Christmas wish list ;)


Must Haves
1-Black and white scarf (Barneys Warehouse, $59)
2-Cat ear key chain (JcPenney, $9)
3-Bow tie phone case (Casetify, $35)
4-Cat umbrella (San Francisco Umbrella Company, $35)
5-Velvet bow clutch (Ann Taylor, $128)

I LOVE scarves and have become somewhat obsessed with them this season so when I spotted this scarf I wanted it instantly! It is such a pretty black and white plaid pattern and it would go perfect with several items already in my wardrobe. This one is from Barneys and it's on sale :) Who doesn't have one of these little fuzzy key chains hanging from their purse? If you said "me" then you're missing out on one of the hottest accessory trends of the year! This one is especially cute because it has cat ears. I actually have one right now that's a fox, but this one is next on my list ;) This phone case is so classy and pretty. I love the little white bow tie and the fact that it actually says "stay classy" is so awesome! Such a great way to dress up your phone for a very dressy event :) Everyone needs an umbrella especially with winter right around the corner. I love this black beauty with the beautiful white cats walking print. It's the classic black and white but with a little bit of flare ;) THIS PURSE!!! I want this gorgeous little clutch really bad! I love Ann Taylor and this purse is just another one of her designs to add to my wish list. This purse is perfect for all the upcoming holiday parties :) You can shop all these awesome accessories HERE!


Aren't these accessories amazing? Are you loving the classic black and white theme? Which one is your favorite? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love and share this post with all your friends who would love any of these accessories as much as I do. I hope you have a great Monday and happy shopping :)

5 Pairs Of Leggings And How To Style Them

Hey everyone and happy Friday!! I'm so happy the week is finally over. I have so much to get done today, but before I head off to start my never ending day I wanted to share with you some super cute leggings I found and how you can style them. I got the inspiration for this post because of all the awesome leggings I've been seeing in the stores lately and because I don't know one single person who doesn't LOVE leggings. I myself recently purchased two of the cutest pairs and I can't wait to wear them and feature them on here for you to see :) So, what leggings did I pick out for today's post and how did I style them??


#1-Printed Nordic Leggings
I found these beauties while browsing through my Polyvore app and I think they are simply adorable! I love the neutral browns and tans of these leggings because they are so great for fall. One of the pairs of leggings I have is actually similar to this in a way. I decided to go super casual and comfy with the styling of these leggings so I chose an oversized tan sweater and a comfy pair of tan UGGs. This is something I'd definitely wear for Thanksgiving day seeing as I'll be staying home and doing most of the cooking. LOL You can shop this look HERE.


#2-Grey Knitted wool blend leggings
These leggings are so pretty! I love the design and the colors. They look so soft and cozy that it makes me want to put them on now since we are actually experiencing a cool front here in Texas...if only I wasn't allergic to wool :( But, these are the perfect leggings for a day out on the town for anyone who loves wool and wants to stay warm. I went a little more dressy with the styling of these leggings and chose a grey off the shoulder sweater and a pair of grey ankle boots. I love how the almost monotone grey gives the whole outfit a soft look. If you love this style you can get all these items HERE.


#3-Multi colored mixed print leggings
These leggings immediately caught my attention while cruising through the Polyvore app. I love the bold colors and the print is super cute!! I wanted to go back to casual with the styling of these leggings, but this time I chose a cute blouse instead of a sweater to show just how versatile leggings really are. I chose a gorgeous bold blue blouse and a pair of tan ankle boots for an amazing outfit that I really wish I had in my closet right now. This is the perfect outfit for a casual day of shopping or even a nice dinner date with your sweetie. You can shop this look HERE.


#4-Camo leggings
I love wearing camo so I was so excited when I saw these amazing camo leggings on my Polyvore app!! Anyone looks good in camo and these are the perfect leggings for that slightly rough and rugged look. There are so many ways you can style camo and so many color combinations to choose from, but I decided to keep it simple and picked a brown tunic and a pair of brown boots. I love this outfit so much!! I'd definitely wear this for all my fall outdoor activities! If you love this look as much as I do then you can find everything HERE.


#5-Red plaid leggings
Who doesn't love plaid?! Plaid is one of my all time favorite patterns anytime of the year but especially in the fall and winter. I love all colors of plaid as well, but there's just something about red plaid that calls out to me every time I see it. I LOVE these leggings and hopefully I'll be able to snag a pair myself soon. I decided to dress these leggings up a bit and stay away from the gothic look so I paired them with a black sweater and a pair of black pointed toe flats. This would be the perfect outfit for date night! You can shop this look HERE.


Aren't these leggings adorable? Which pair is your favorite? How would you style them differently? I'd love to hear from you so leave me a comment and let me know what you think. Be sure to spread the love and share this post with all your friends who love leggings as much as I do. I hope you have an amazing weekend and happy shopping :)
