sweatpants.

  



Truth is I wear sweatpants in public more often than I should and use dry shampoo way more than recommended. My weekends consist of laundry and movies on my couch. 95% of my life isn't instagram worthy.

Throughout the years I've loved to share my love for fashion with you all. Although sporadic I've always come back to sharing memories and outfits. Sometimes my little creative outlet can get a little defeating. In a world with where comparison is just a click away it can make you feel like your life is less than average.

I think everyone battles with the social media dilemma of staying present but still connecting with friends you don't see everyday. I'm not the expert by any means, but when I am feeling the social media blues I often try to take a step back. To not put pressure on myself to take the perfect pictures or make sure my page looks aesthetically pleasing. Sometime you just have to put up that cute picture with your BF making goofy faces.

I had been reaching my new year goals of posting weekly but I started to play the comparison game with other talented and creative bloggers and I let it get the best of me. The blues have past and my best friend of the blog has pulled me back.

Wishing you a night with the girls and morning cuddles.

lazy.

 






Let's be real, somedays you wake up and you just wanna be lazy. When this happens I wake up and search in my closet for a comfy outfit. I'm an adult now and unlike my 8 a.m. class attire, I can't go to work in my sweatpants, unfortunately.

In the summer you can see me wearing this jumpsuit every other week. Instead of just adding a jacket or cardigan over it, I decided to put this high slight cream v-neck sweater over the top. I added my light brown high heeled booties to elevate my look.Layering is a perfect way to make those summer outfits winter appropriate. Hopefully, I will be able to show you my methods in future posts.

Wishing you Sunday naps and good messy buns.

business casual.








TBH this outfit isn't business casual. When I spotted this mauve duster, I conjured up all the different outfits and talked myself into buying it in about 5 seconds flat.

Living in a small town shopping is difficult. Don't get me wrong, I find my ways but, there definitely a lack of on trend items and quality.When I was growing up I never wanted to shop in my small town from fear of having the same outfit as someone else. I feel I have grown out of this, especially when combined with a healthy dose of online shopping.

That being said, I purchased this mauve duster at my local T.J. Maxx and I still love it. I paired it with my navy embroidered T-Shirt, because the lining of this duster is navy blue (hint: navy blue and mauve make an exceptional pair).Then I went very casual with a dark wash pair of jeans and short booties.

Mauve is my favorite shade of pink because it always seems to look the best with my skin tone, I'm bias I know.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day and my week of pink continues. S/O to the readers who take time to read this sometimes cringe worthy blog of mine.

Wishing you chocolate and the will to get ready.

just love.

 



For some reason I always get outfit inspo from Valentine's Day. It might be because I love the idea of getting dressed up and going out with your lover or that my inner girly girl gets the spotlight for a quick second. Whatever it is, I always seem to get in the Valentine's Day spirit.

I always choose pink over red, not for any particular reason. Today, I wanted to make a small nod to my week of pink. I paired my favorite blazer with an embroidered T-shirt for a easy but sophisticated look.

My light pink beret was added to give my look, a little bit of a Parisian vibe. When I wear my beret hats, I always tend to tilt them to one side. This is the best way for me to wear them personally, if I try it any other way I tend to look like a chef. If you are unsure about this trend, try this trick to see if it can convince you to add a beret to your outfit, before summer is upon us.

I hope you will continue with me on my week of pink.

Wishing you good morning texts and a positive attitude.

sporty spice.





Here's to February and a week of pink.

In Wyoming, we have winter for 10 out of 12 months of the year, and people choose to live here lolz. I am always looking for cute jackets and coats to wear with the variety of different outfits I wear on a day to day basis.

Recently, I have been scrounging the sale tabs on all my favorite boutiques. A couple weeks ago I found this cute number on sale. I mainly have been pairing this mauve coat with my sporty closet items. I love to wear it to the gym in the mornings and on the weekends when I am running errands.

It's a bit puffy, which makes it cute and functional. With Valentine's Day around the corner everyone needs a little bit of pink in their life.

Wishing you netflix marathons and ice cream.
