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.

Memorial weekend is one of the biggest times of year for brands to have sales. Almost every store, from departments stores to boutiques, will have sales running all weekend long. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by how many deals are available. Which is why I stick with my tried and true favorite brands. By only looking at and for sales from brands I love, I save myself money, and time. Here’s the brand sales I’m watching this weekend.

Picture this, you’re surrounded by the lush greenery of Napa, sipping a glass of Pinot Nior, in your perfectly curated vineyard outfit. This is what I imagined for myself less than a week ago. I’ve spent probably a month trying to put together the perfect Napa Valley wardrobe. My main source of inspiration has been Meredith Blake from the Parent Trap and Pretty Woman. While none of the outfits are duplicates from the movie, I’d like to think I nailed the overall essence of these fashion icons. (Meredith Blake may be the villain, but you can’t deny she had style). My main color palette for the trip was greens, black…

One of my favorite embellishments has made its return for 2024, Ric Rac! One may remember the hype around Ric Rac before covid turned the world upside. I certainly was obsessed with this wavy little trend. And as trends do, ric rac has returned once again! Though if you really thing about it, it never did really leave. So how is ric rac returning this year? Check out these styles that are sweeping through for summer.

The AppleTV show, Palm Royale, has reignited my love for Lilly Pulitzer. I first came to know (and love) Lilly back when I was in college. Being at a school in Virginia, you would think there would be plenty of sorority girls who wore Lilly. Virginia is technically the South after all. However, it wasn’t until my family moved back to Orlando my freshman year of college that I was introduced to Lilly Pulitzer. And it wasn’t until I met my then boyfriend (now husband), Michael, that I started wearing Lilly.   My obsession with Lilly was fanned more when I moved to Orlando myself after graduation. But truth be…

Best news ever! Lilly Pulitzer has just announced it will be having a Surprise Sale this weekend! They aren’t releasing many details, but it appears it may be a little different than the After Party Sale structure. Here’s what we do know: With these details, it sounds like there will be styles from recent and current seasons available! It reminds me of the 30% off sale they did at the beginning of the covid pandemic. What’s in the Lilly Surprise Sale? Unlike the Sunshine Sale, Lilly has not provided many previews. They have shared a few items that you can expect to see in the sale though. With all the…

We just celebrated our second wedding anniversary on March 24! Each year, the wedding anniversary is traditionally celebrated by giving a specific gift to your spouse. While this is certainly a more traditional way to celebrate your wedding anniversary, I think it’s so romantic. Each year’s gift represents growth in the relationship that I think is important to reflect on. (See the full list of anniversary gifts by year here).  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.

I’ve been obsessed with the color green since I was a kid. In fact, I’d say I’ve been obsessed with green outfits since I was a kid. Why? Well, green is my favorite color because Tinker Bell’s dress is green. This is the only explanation I’ve ever given since I decided my favorite color was green at around 6 years old. However, it hasn’t been until recent years that I actually started to wear green. Since I’ve started though, there’s been no looking back. Here’s some of my favorite spring green outfits to wear throughout the season. Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links, meaning at no additional…

I never pulled the trigger because, at the time, I was stretched for money. After I graduated, they kind of fell off…
