    Matching Fall Set from Favorite Daughters

    I’ve had my eyes on this matching fall set available to rent from Nuuly since our Napa Valley trip back in May. While it would have been the perfect set to sip wine in, I thought it more appropriate to rent and wear in fall. Which is exactly what I did. There’s something about the plaid of this set that just screamed fall to me. And when the top came in stock in my size, it did not disappoint. Here’s my honest review of the set, in both size and comfort, as well as different ways you can style it. Both as a matching set, and individual pieces. Disclosure: Some…

    My Nuuly Fall Picks

    When it comes to fall in Florida, there’s only so much layering you can do. The fall items that always seem to catch my eye, are items that I can’t realistically wear in Florida during your “usual” fall months. However, I’ve had my eye on some Nuuly picks that I think I might just have to try for fall. While I may not get to wear them more than once, they’re pieces that just might work down South. As I’ve stated previously, renting clothes allows you to experiment with trends that you otherwise wouldn’t. I use Nuuly to the fullest in that sense, and that typically comes around fall. Since…

    Blythe Bow Dress by Hill House

    Just when you think Hill House has made all the silhouettes your heart desires, they drop the ultimate bow dress. Nell Diamond has been teasing the Blythe Bow Dress for months, and when Hill House did an exclusive sample drop, I pounced on the opportunity. I will say, I was worried as it’s been labeled as an “ultra mini” dress and I’ve been more into midis and maxis as of late. However, I own three other mini dresses from Hill House and they have been the perfect length. So while it was a gamble on just how mini the Blythe Bow Dress would be, it was a risk I was…

    My Favorite Brands to Shop Secondhand 

    In my very limited, mostly when I feel like it, scope for combating fast fashion, I shop secondhand. While I enjoy in person thrifting from time to time, my main source to shop secondhand from is Poshmark and Mercari. Now I’ve talked about Poshmark before and it’s still one of my favorite ways to shop my favorite brands secondhand. Over the years, the brands that I’ve come to love and invest in, either firsthand or secondhand, have evolved. Once just shopping for Lilly Pulitzer secondhand has turned into so much more. So here are my favorite brands to shop on Poshmark and Mercari and why. Disclosure: Some of the links…

    UPF 50+ Styles for Summer 

    Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links, meaning at no additional cost to you I may make a commission if you click through and purchase. Who says you can’t be protected from the sun and look cute doing it? Well Cabana Life does just that. When they reached out to collaborate, it was a no brainer. As a Florida girl born (and mostly raised), I know firsthand how brutal the sun can be. And not just the heat of the sun, but sun poisoning. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve taken sun protection much more seriously. Even going to length of wearing pants and a shirt at the…

    Hosting a Bridgerton Soirée

    Dearest Gentle Reader, it has come to this authors attention that a soirée was had at the Frostrom household and I was not invited. But gossip has a way of coming to the surface, does it not? Dawn your most Bridgerton gown and put on your favorite pearls for the soirée of the season. When I heard that we were finally getting season 3 of Bridgerton, I immediately wanted to throw a soirée watch party. As luck would have it, a watch party was not in the cards this time. But, I still wanted to celebrate the new season with a ball of my own. (Any excuse to dress up,…

    Cruising in Greece & Turkey

    My family and I set sail on a once in a lifetime cruise around Greece and Turkey. While our original plan was to take a Holy Land cruise to Israel and Egypt, current events said otherwise. (Though it is still on my personal bucket list to visit Egypt). As a girl who is obsessed with all things white and blue, I knew that Greece would not disappoint. And after choosing a green color palette for our trip to Napa Valley, I was ready to jump back into blues and whites for this trip. Emerson Dress // Linen Pants // Scarf // Blouse // Sunglasses // Purse // White Shorts Outfits…

    My Favorite Purchases In May

    I took a shopping pause for my wardrobe the month of April, that I almost made it through save for one dress from H&M. But all self control went out the door as soon as May 1st hit. (Full transparency: I purchase a lot of new things for my wardrobe using the little bit of money I make through commissions on the blog. Not everything, but a lot of things. So thank you for supporting me). There are two purchases in May that I know I will be wearing all summer and had to share. Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links, meaning at no additional…
