A Summer Look & A Fluffy Pup

in

Hello readers! It’s been a hot second since my last “outfit post”…and this ball of fluff is the reason why. If you’ve been following me on IG you know that back in April we welcomed this little cavapoo who we named Freddie into our home, our lives, and our heart. It’s been a whirlwind…full of puppy insanity. I’ve hardly been wearing anything cute due to worrying that he’ll rip and ruin anything I have on, and don’t get me on the limited time I have had for hair and makeup. However, I thought this simple and colorful summer look was too cute not to share. Also…how cute is Freddie here???

Top: LOFT, Jeans: Madewell, Sandals: Birkenstock, Purse: Rebecca Minkoff (similar as pink is no longer available)

I love a peplum top…and this one has the happiest print I’ve ever seen. I think it looks adorable paired with a good pair of jeans. One of my favorite styles of denim is the Stovepipe jeans at Madewell. They fit so well and the denim is so soft. They are available in regular sizes as well as plus, petite, curvy, and tall…so there is a fit for everybody! They also come in a variety of washes. Adding a few pops of colors (my purse and sandals) just pulls this all together, don’t you think?

Freddie loves going to the park and saying hi to literally every single dog he sees. He’s super happy and super crazy. Be sure to follow his wild antics on his IG: FreddieFluffyPants

I want to hear from you. How is your summer going???

94th Academy Awards: What I Hope They Wear

in

Another year, another award show…another red carpet. I have to say that the Academy Awards is typically one of my favorites. The Oscars is all about glamour, and in my mind the more glamourous the outfit the better! Here are my picks for what I really hope the stars wear tonight.

Jessica Chastain in Christian Dior, Fall 2022 RTW

Kristen Stewart in Badgley Mischka, Fall 2022 RTW

Penelope Cruz in Badgley Mischka, Fall 2022 RTW

Lady Gaga in Valentino, Spring 2022 Couture

Tracee Ellis Ross in Valentino, Spring 2022 Couture

Jennifer Garner in Jenny Packham, Fall 2022 RTW

What styles, designers, and colors do you hope to see your favorite celebrities wearing tonight?

Pops of Color

in

It’s no secret that the majority of my wardrobe is black…and I love it that way. Call it being lazy…call it being practical…call it being a New Yorker. But adding pops of color in your outwear and accessories makes everything so much more fun. Don’t you agree?

Adding some color really adds something special to any look. I have long black coats, black purses, and the same Sam Edelman Chelsea boots in black…but I felt like standing out today, just a little bit.

What I adore about this bag is the practicality of it. Crossbody bags are always high on the list of my favorite things…but this one has a removeable crossbody strap so you have different options on how you wear it.

Running to grab some coffee in the early morning was never so effortless yet so pulled together. I’m obsessed with teddy bear coats in general…but this pink one just screams my name. It’s super warm, comfy, and bold (but in a good way). It’s different than all the other teddy bear coats I’ve seen out there. Why blend in when you can stand out? Am I right or what???

I want to know, how do YOU wear color in your looks?

Old Dresses & New Hair

in

Do you ever leave something in your closet and just not wear it no matter how cute it is? Want to hear somethings crazy?…………..

For some reason I have had this adorable dress sitting in my closet for over a year and haven’t worn it yet. I got it for my birthday in March of 2020, right as COVID was hitting…which in turn meant working from home, not seeing people in public, and wearing legging…lots of leggings. So this dress just sort of hibernated in my closet.

But I figured I might as well break it out now. Why not?! Adding this dress to the rotation of all of my plain, boring, basic, cotton dresses will jazz things up a bit. I mean this print is just too cute…animals playing tennis. Love it!

Also, I wanted to show you guys my new clip in hair extensions I just got recently from BFB Hair. I’m kind of obsessed with them. I’ve been wanting these for so long…and BFB Hair just had their 20% off sale that they have twice a year. So I grabbed these in Butterscotch. Initially I ordered a few sample colors to make sure the color matched, and this shade is so exact I cannot get over how natural it looks.

What do you guys think of the long locks?
