So tomorrow is my boyfriends birthday. This really would have been the first year we could throw a birthday party at our place with friends, family, and fun theming. However, due to covid, that’s not really happening. But, that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t try some kind of virtual birthday party with fun themes and decorations. So while these food, decorations, and party ideas may not get shared in person with people, they’re still fun and make a birthday special. Also disclaimer he won't be 25, that's a photo from a couple years ago. Super Hero Virtual Birthday Party This one is probably my favorite because no matter what side of…

Athleisure Wear While Staying at Home
This stay at home act has made me become a walking contradiction. Or maybe it’s the weather. Or maybe I’m not a contradiction at all but trying to give the people what they want! I love athleisure wear. I love the way it looks and I love how comfortable it is. But I don’t consider it “normal clothes” so I don’t usually wear it. However, I am 100% guilty of wearing workout clothes and athleisure at home. Hold on hold on, before you accuse me of being a hypocrite. I only wear athleisure on days I’m doing an at home workout OR after I’ve worn normal clothes for most of…

3 Closet Organization Ideas for Small Spaces
Alright y’all, ideas are coming back to me for this week. Last week was a bit crazy for me working from home. But I think this week will be a lot more calm and I’ll have time to put together more post & content. I’ve been seeing a ton of closet organization ideas going around on the web and I just think they’re totally fabulous. At the same time I feel like they are a little un-relatable because they’re closets don’t seem to be cram packed with junk like all of mine are. But to each their own, I’m just trying to find how I can be more organized with…

Designer Dupes on Amazon Under $50
Today’s post was originally supposed to be on designer finds from TJ Maxx and TJ Maxx online. I was lucky that I did update my favorite items currently from TJ Maxx before they closed. However, seeing as neither of them are open right now, I’ve had to change it up. Instead of finding great deals on actual brand labels, I’ve looked into finding some designer dupes on Amazon that are great for spring and summer. I mainly tried to focus on two brands: Dolce & Gabbana and Kate Spade. At first I was a bit more open to all brands but then I kept seeing the gorgeous florals of Dolce…

How to Support Small Businesses in a Pandemic
So I was supposed to have a post today about visiting Los Angeles & California for the first time, but covid had other ideas. 🙄 With all the research I did to figure out where I wanted to go when I was in LA, I probably still could have posted it. However, I feel like it’s totally not relevant right now. I know I’m not the only who canceled travel plans because of covid. So instead I figured I’d post something semi relevant. Though I have to admit, I don’t really want to be relevant when it comes to covid. I’d much rather not even mention it all. However, if…

At Home Workout – Physical Therapy Edition
So I’ll be honest, I’ve contemplated having a blog dedicated just to my running and workout outfits. But straight up, I’m just a bad sport at this kind of stuff. How can I tell people “just do you” when I have trouble doing me when it comes to running and working out. I figured that I would at least give one home workout post a try. Since my Disney marathon in January I’ve gone through a handful of hardships in my running journey. Not only did I bomb my marathon because of knee pain, but I was out of running for over 6 weeks. I’ve felt like my fitness level…

Affordable Fashion Finds While Social Distancing
As hard as I’ve been trying to stick to a normal schedule and not elude too much to Covid-19, I can’t stop the inevitable. Last week I physically went into work twice. This week, I’m working from home. Yesterday was my first day working from home and lets just say, it was a little rough. The morning seemed like a constant whirlwind with getting up to run, trying to shower, and trying to get some stuff out before 9am. Needless to say, that didn’t all happen before 9, and I even forgot all about coffee. I’m hoping today goes a bit better. Yesterday afternoon I used online shopping for affordable…

How to Style a Tunic Dress in Spring
Last summer I shared one of my favorite summer dresses from Sail to Sable. Today I’m re-sharing that dress and another tunic dress from Sail to Sable. The start of spring is a great time to look for and purchase these tunic dresses at places like TJ Maxx. Why? Because you can find them at a great discount ($30 instead of $100) and because they’re perfect for this time of year. It’s also a great staple to have in spring and also throughout summer.

What to Wear to an Art Show
Well y’all, I had this post queued before all these “recent events”. Because of this the location I was going to shoot this outfit at has closed. Honestly, most things have closed. I debated even posting this, who would be going to an art show right now anyways? But I decided to still do it, even if these outfit pictures were taken in my house. I even debated staging an “art show” at my house. In an attempt to be honest and real with you all though I didn’t do that either. I won’t deny what is happening all around me, but I certainly do not want to post about…
