The Short Suit | The Power Suit’s Little Sister
The woman’s ‘power suit’ has had quite the resurgence over the past couple of seasons. In fact – when I went to New York Fashion Week last September I was surprised at how many bold colored suits I saw the girls wearing. Mostly with retro boots and cool band tees. This spring the power suit’s little sister – the ‘short suit’ – is having a moment of its own.
Revive Your Wardrobe Without Spending a Dime
One of the things I wanted to be more mindful of this year was my spending habits. In the past, I’ve done a not-so-good job at saving and tended to use shopping as a sort of therapy. If I had a stressful day I always found it therapeutic to go shopping – that was always something I could count on to make me feel good. Well, for the time being anyhow. Then when reality hits and you realize you spent x amount of dollars at the mall and don’t have a whole lot left in your bank account it really has an adverse effect. Now, I am not saying I am giving up shopping all together – clearly (LOL). I mean I do have a fashion blog so that would be really kind of hard. However, I found this year I have been EXTREMELY mindful in what I am purchasing. I’m not just purchasing something because it would make a good Instagram photo (YES – I have done this in the past) and I am also not purchasing items I am going to wear once or twice and then be done with. I want to focus more on purchasing items I can wear over and over again. Because to be honest, most of the items I wear on a regular basis are items that I’ve had for a long time and can always count on.
Chunky Knit Sweater & Glam Jewelry
These photos were actually taken a week ago today – on my birthday last week! This top was sent to me by Misha Vaidya and I am LOVING it – she really has such beautiful pieces – you can check it out here. It totally fits my personal style – simple and classic but with a little flare.
Bombers + Berets
Hi, hi babes & happy Monday! I’ve been having fun adding some spring pieces into my wardrobe like these super cute heels and this fun bomber jacket (similar here too)! If you follow me on Insta you’ve probably seen the shoes more than once lol! I’ve been wearing them so much lately.
Casual Outfits For the Win
Happy Tuesday guys! I feel a bit like it’s Monday still. Must be the ‘mom brain’ thing. Which speaking of ‘mom brain’ can you guys believe I wore this sweater all day Sunday not realizing it was on backwards?! LOL! When I went to grab the link to share it with you guys I realized it was a ‘scoop back’ sweater – ha. I guess it just makes it that much more versatile. Would be super cute on the right way with a lacey bralette like this one showing in the back. When wearing it backwards though it does slide of the shoulders if you let it (but not annoyingly so) which I thought was kind of cute.
