A Holiday Outfit (that isn’t full on red or green)

No Comments

Personally, I love to deck myself out in holiday colors during the Christmas season, but I know not everyone does! This post is for my neutral lovers who want to add just a *touch* of festive flair to their neutral outfit this holiday season.

This otherwise neutral outfit is made slightly festive with a green or red piece of jewelry from Sela Designs (see close-ups below!)

Outfit linked HERE!

Sela Designs is a jewelry brand that donates 100% of their profits to charity—they help stop human trafficking, help provide homes for orphans, & help break the cycle of generational poverty. This alone is a wonderful reason to support them, but another great reason is their jewelry is beautifully made and high quality.

I am sharing two pieces from their holiday collection, but I own a few more pieces as well that I’ll link at the end of the post. You can use MARISSA10 to save a little bit of money on your order.

This is the Restore Necklace—it’s made from a green garnet stone and has a 14k gold filled beaded chain. I love the beautiful jade green color and how unique it is!

This is the Mini Red Garnet Necklace. I love it because garnet is my birthstone, and the gems are the most beautiful deep red. You can get matching earrings too!

Other pieces I own and love from Sela Designs:

Five Ways to Wear Wide Leg Jeans for Fall and Winter

No Comments

When I asked my followers what they wanted to see for fall content, a large request was for ways to wear wide leg jeans (and shoes to wear with them).

Here are five wide leg jean outfits with five different shoe options. To be clear, I am styling ONE pair of jeans, with different tops, shoes, & accessories! I like to maximize my wardrobe & style things multiple ways, so one pair of wide leg jeans is what I have here.

My jeans are almost sold out in this wash (they’re Levi’s ribcage  “she’s a cutie” wash, but there’s lots of other washes available!) so I did my best to try & find and link some wide leg jeans that are similar.

If you prefer video content, you can see the reel HERE and where I talk about the shoes HERE.

All items (or similar if it’s an older piece—it’s always noted in the L T K description if it’s not exact) will be linked beneath each photo. I use affiliate links, meaning I earn a small commission if you make a purchase through them. There’s no extra cost to you, and your support helps me continue creating content like this. Thank you!☺️

A heeled clog (or mule!) is always a cute option with wide leg jeans! I paired a button front cardigan and high neck tank with my wide leg jeans for this look.

This is a new option for me as far as shoes go, but a flat (and specifically in this outfit, a Mary Jane flat) can look really great with wide leg jeans. I fonished the look with a long black duster cardigan and high neck tank.

Outfit linked HERE.

Loafers are also a new pairing with wide leg jeans for me, but I think they look wonderful! I especially love matching my top to my shoes (an “outfit sandwich”) and also adding a matching bag! A turtleneck is a favorite look of mine with wide leg jeans.

A classic heeled boot is a no brainer with wide leg jeans. It always looks classy! I added a white gauzy button up, silk scarf, and matching bag to complete the look.

Outfit linked HERE.

Chelsea boots are one that I haven’t always paired with wide legs, but I feel like it’s really cute AND functional (especially in winter!). To finish this outfit, I added a cropped sweater, black denim jacket, and matching bag (I also forgot to take a photo of this look, so screenshots had to do!).

WHAT TO WEAR: Country Concert Outfit Ideas

No Comments

I did a little series on my socials of outfits to wear to country concerts! I wore my cowboy boots* with each outfit (because I always wear them whenever I get the chance to!), but you could easily switch them out for sandals, sneakers, or whatever you’re most comfortable wearing.

I have outfits with dresses, and some cutoff shorts outfits! I didn’t come up with any jeans outfits, but you could switch the shorts out for jeans if you wanted to.

As always, I will link each outfit (or similar options if something is unavailable—I always note if it’s not an exact item in my LTK description) under each photo. If you buy something using these links I earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. I so appreciate your support—it means the world to me and my family!

*my cowboy boots are secondhand from eBay— I have linked some similar ones but if you’re looking for affordable and great quality boots definitely check secondhand first!

A classic white tank and cutoffs is perfect for a concert! This tank is linen and so breathable and comfy!

This dress is older so I linked some similar little black dresses. I love pairing this custom made quilted vest from Etsy with so many different things!

Outfit linked HERE.

A graphic tee is so comfy and cute for a concert! This one is from Mountain Moverz and you can use MARISSA20 for $$ off!

Outfit linked HERE.

This white dress is such a favorite piece in my closet! I wear it so much. In this outfit I paired it with cowboy boots and a silk scarf for a romantic country look.

Outfit linked HERE.

I actually just wore a version of this outfit to a concert last month! It was so hot out, so I ended up tying the scarf around my waist and wearing a fun beaded necklace.

Outfit linked HERE.

A floral mini dress is such a cute country concert option! Add a silk scarf and cowboy boots and it makes for a western-y and cute look!

Outfit linked HERE.

Like I said before, this dress is older, as is this scarf, so I linked similar options!

Wedding Guest Dresses, What to Wear

Four Wedding Guest Dresses for Summer (that come in multiple color options!)

No Comments

I know wedding guest dresses are something I am always asked about, so I found four dresses that are absolutely perfect for a summer wedding.

I went with two pretty classic LBDs (little black dresses) and two that are colorful, brighter, and a bit bolder! All four dresses come in other color options so definitely check the links out to see the other shades.

I am 5’1” and around 100 lbs, so these dresses obviously work for petite ladies, but I feel like most of these dresses would work for everyone. The only one that may be short on taller ladies is the slip dress, but that also comes in a midi length (that has even more color options) that I’ll link as well.

I will link each dress/outfit after the photos of each dress.

I use affiliate links which means I earn a small commission if you purchase something using my links. There is no additional cost to you and I always appreciate the support. Thank you!



A slip dress is super classic for a wedding! I am wearing a black one (this dress comes in 5 colors!) and I paired it with my go-to black bag and fun strappy gold heels and gold jewelry.

I will also link the midi option for my taller girls (which comes in 17 colors!).

Dress/ midi slip dress/ rest of my linked HERE.

This asymmetrical neckline dress from Amazon is a great option as a wedding guest dress, and it’s epseically handy if you need a dress quickly because it’s prime shipping.

I love the red, but it also comes in 10 colors. I am wearing a size small here but need to size down to an xs. I paired it with tan heels and it would also look great with gold or black!

This outfit is linked HERE.

This faux wrap dress is a super comfy and complimentary option! I like how the faux wrap flatters the stomach area and I love that you can wear a regular bra with it.

This dress comes in 7 great colors. I paired it with strappy black heels, gold jewelry, and again, my go-to black bag.

Dress/ rest of my outfit linked HERE.

I’m obsessed with this green color lately! It’s so fun and bright. The faux wrap on this is great & the slit makes it a sexier option!

If you’re a bride, this dress also comes in white and would be perfect for your rehearsal dinner, your wedding shower, or your bachelorette party! I paired this dress with strappy gold heels, a fun beaded clutch bag and gold jewelry.
