I have been looking for a burgundy chunky knit sweater and saw a couple at Nordstrom but they were all pricy around $78. I didn’t want to spend that much. So when I came across this one I snagged it! It’s so comfy, soft, and warm! I love it paired with this plain white tee, easy, casual and comfortable all around! I literally can’t stop wearing hats in the fall! It’s such an easy way to hide dirty hair and sometimes just adds a little something to an otherwise “basic” outfit.

Thanks for reading have a lovely day!

P.S. Happy Veteran’s Day to all those who have served our country to bravely! Thank you for making America great!

Matchy matchy

 

my outfit: similar jeans | top | hat | flats (even cheaper version here, just ordered them in nude & they also come in a fun yellow color) | similar bag

isla’s outfit: similar dress | similar hat | similar kitty shoes here & here

Sorry for the photo overload but I just couldn’t pick which I liked best because it’s hard to only like certain photos of your child! lol These matching-ish outfits happened accidentally. I realized we both had window pane pieces and burgundy hats so we went for it! It’s fun matching your little. Although she always, always looks cuter!

I know you’re probably sick of hearing “I’m sorry for the hiatus” but I really am. Sometimes life just gets in the way. But I hope to be back to regular blogging soon! As always thanks so much for your support and for reading! Hope you have a great day.

Plaid shirt dress

plaid shirt dress (also comes in blue) || OTK boots (perfect heel height!) || studded tote || belt || sunnies real version & my dupes || watch || spike pearl cuff || stretch bracelet  (reversible)|| earrings (can’t stop wearing these!)

Pretty sure I’ll be in this dress all the time until the temps really start to drop. I love that it has a fall vibe with the wine color & plaid (I told you I was obsessed!) but is still comfortable for those in between days because of the short sleeves. It’s also great because it’s a bit longer in the front and definitely longer in the back. This is great when you’re chasing a toddler around for more coverage! This bag has pretty much become my new diaper bag. I just love it so much! I was sick of toting around a big heavy diaper bag and never using half the junk in it. I’m trying a simpler approach and so far really like it. I just keep the essentials in it, a few diapers, travel pack of wipes, snacks, a pacifier, a small toy, a bow/clip for Isla’s hair and that’s pretty much it! I love this bag because of the price point, color, and size. It is the perfect size tote! Not too big or small.

I hope everyone had a nice weekend! Thanks for reading!

Fall Must Haves

Hello friends! I know it’s been a while and I’m hoping to get back into more regular posting next week. So sorry for the big delay.

Today I wanted to share with you a few of my fall “must haves” a lot of these pieces are staples for fall that can be worn many different ways. They’re also very popular and tend to sell out rather quickly before we even get weather that resembles fall! So you won’t want to miss out on any of these great options!

Remember this military jacket? Well it is now restocked in all sizes! It is one of my favorites ever. Great price point and goes with so much. It runs big, I’m wearing a size small. I’m also loving THIS version in a chambray material that is currently on sale! So cute. (Click HERE to see the full post for this outfit)

If you follow me on Instagram you already saw this, but my absolute favorite floppy hat (but not TOO floppy that it inhibits your vision) is currently on sale for less than $22. I am wearing it in the tan color but also ordered it in the light grey. It is going to go perfect with everything in my fall wardrobe. I just love hats especially for bad hair days! Or when I’m too lazy to wash my hair. (Click HERE to see the full post for this outfit)

This j crew herringbone puffer vest has been an obsession of everyone and their mother for like 3 years straight now. I don’t think it’s going out of style anytime soon either! Mine is from 3 years ago but they just restocked it in an awesome slate grey color! It’s on sale and I know it will not be available for long. It does run kind of big, mine is a size small. I like it to be a little more fitted though so that’s why I went with a small. I can’t comfortably zip it all the way up thanks to being bigger on top but that’s okay, I still get the look I’m going for.

A good pair of booties. These BP trott booties are so comfy. They can be dressed up or down which I love. I have them in black because I din’t have a black pair but the brown color is great too!

Sorry again for my lack of posting. I hope to be back at it again very soon! Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

pretty little sundress

sundress | wedges | bag (different style same color here) | necklace | earrings | watch | renegade cluster | amelie bracelet

How cute is this little seersucker sundress? I bought it in store but the grey stripe is not available online, but solid white is. Which I think is just as cute! I love the little details in it, and the length! Not many dresses are longer than mid thigh these days so this one feels appropriate for all different occasions. It’s light and flattering!

So I honestly didn’t expect these wedges to be that comfortable because they run so small (I ordered a full size up) but they are so comfortable! I love love love them. They go with so much!! I have a thing for grey!

Did you guys watch the bachelorette last night? So awkward at times!! There are some good looking guys though and I really hope the bachelorette ends up being Kaitlyn. She just seems so much more genuine and she is really funny! As far as the guys I really like Shawn and Joshua so far!

We’ll see how it plays out!

cool + comfy

dress | jean jacket (old, similar) | bag | mules | aviators | aria pendant | renegade cluster | chevron pave cuff | peach amelie bracelet | peach nancy studs

This dress is oh so comfy! But looks put together, score! This is probably my favorite Stella & Dot necklace. It’s so dainty but pretty & goes with so so much. It dresses up a plain t shirt and jeans so well but also looks great with a dress like this. It can also be worn 3 ways which is awesome! I love the versatility. A jean jacket is a spring staple, I have this one which is a lighter wash and a darker wash as well. Both from Old Navy years and years ago but have lasted so long and never gone out of style. The one I linked is VERY similar.

Happy Friday! I hope everyone enjoys a blessed Easter with their family! 🙂

Cyber Monday!

I know everyone loses it over Black Friday shopping but honestly I like Cyber Monday better! I am an online shopper at heart. It started last year when I did ALL my Christmas shopping online. I was pregnant and tired and didn’t feel like going to the mall. It was such a great decision. Shopping at retailers like Nordstrom, who have free shipping and returns all the time, make it a no brainer. Now that I’m a mom I do still like to get out to do some shopping, but now that those shopping trips have to be done around nap and feeding schedules, it becomes a lot more cumbersome. Online shopping is still my go to. So that’s why today is my holy grail!! Yay for awesome online deals! Here are some of the absolute best!

 

Amazon! Still one of my favorite places to shop. For Cyber Monday they have new deals every 10 minutes, fabulous savings on HD tvs and other electronics, fashion apparel like Cole Haan, kitchenware products, and kids toys and games!

Target! I love Target so so much. They have everything you need and I always find something I love but definitely don’t need there.
