Leopard Print & Lace-up Flats

Two things I thought I'd be tired of by now when it comes to style - ruffles and leopard print. I'm definitely not even close to being done with these two trends. In fact, I don't even know if I'd call them trends since they are both pretty classic looking in my opinion. Maybe I'll look back in a year and wonder what I was thinking but for now, I love them! I wore this cropped ruffle sleeve blouse and leopard print A-line skirt yesterday along with some lace-up flats which were under $25 and shockingly comfortable. 

Spring Fever

I know it is still in the middle of winter but the 70 degree temps. we've had the past few days has me totally dreaming of spring weather! I think it is officially spring in my brain... if you can't already tell from my Instagram outfits.  I wore my favorite white wide-leg jeans yesterday with an affordable striped button-down shirt to enjoy the beautiful afternoon after we finished moving (we moved from a one bedroom to a two bedroom apt. this weekend, incase you were wondering).  Of course, I wore my go-to neutral accessories including my tan watch and Swell Caroline ginger bracelet. 

Move Loot + Giveaway

A few months ago, I moved to a new apartment.  I absolutely love it and I couldn't have chosen a better place.  However, as one might guess, the move was not very fun.  My car died that week, making it very difficult to move all my things, plus I had far too much stuff that just accumulated over the past few years.  I had to find ways to get rid of a bunch of my furniture and luckily, I found the perfect solution.

Summer Nights

Workin' in the Summer

 

  Ponte Shift Dress (only $30) || Light Grey Handbag (under $40) || Shoes: Adrienne Vittadini || Necklace: Kendra Scott 'Perry' || Sunglasses || Earrings

So, I know that it is technically spring but these recent 90 degree temperatures have it feeling like summer already.  At work, I typically use my lunch and break times to go outside and walk (since I'm sitting at a desk all day) but lately I've been struggling to pick out an outfit to wear where I won't get too hot to do that.  Luckily, I stumbled upon this shift dress the other day which just so happened to be under $30.  It also comes in a pretty coral hue that I just may need to scoop up before these sell out.  These will for sure go fast! For a $30 Target dress, this one is a pretty quality find.  The ponte fabric it is made of keeps it from being too tight but also would be flattering on all body types.  It is my new favorite work dress and will definitely keep me cool this summer on my lunch time strolls.  This dress paired with my favorite Kate Spade sunglasses gives off some serious Audrey Hepburn vibes too.
