Five Ways to Wear Burnt Orange Wide Leg Pants

I ordered these pants last year from Quince (which is a sustainable, affordable, & ethical brand) & I ended up having to re-order two sizes up because of how high-waisted they are and how they fit my body. They are super comfortable now and so cute! I have been wanting a pair of pants in this burnt orange color that I can wear in all seasons, and these are perfect. They’re finally back in stock and linked HERE.


Everything I am wearing (and similar options for older/sold out items) are linked at the bottom of this post.

Newbella Shoes Try-On & Review (two pairs of slip on shoes)

We’re having a bit of an extra-long summer where I live, which means my warmer weather clothing and shoes get an extended stay in my closet and more chances to be worn. I’m totally okay with it though, because I love slip on shoe and sandal season. I have two great pairs of slip-on shoes to share from Newbella (shoes were gifted, but all thoughts & reviews are my own).

This first pair is an open toe mule style sandal. They’re the MOUSSE FIT Women Knit Detail Chunky Mule Sandals. I’m wearing them in the yellow, which adds a fun pop of color to an otherwise neutral outfit. I had a hard time deciding between the green and the yellow– both colors are so fun! They’re soft and stretchy and the square toe is currently very on trend. They have a small block heel which makes them perfect to wear for all occasions–with dresses, skirts, jeans, or trousers!

The second pair of shoes I want to share are the MOUSSE FIT Women Knit Detail Flat Sandals. Again, they’re a comfortable slip on shoe and they’re made with a soft stretchy upper and a rubber sole. I chose the neutral apricot color, but again the green was a contender, and I also loved the look of the black. These are the PERFECT pair of shoes to slip on with any type of outfit. I paired them with jeans and a long duster cardigan, but they would look equally as cute with a dress or a skirt.

Revamping Your Wardrobe: Tips for Adding Personality to Your Fashion Choices

I’ve always had a love for fashion, but I recently found myself in a bit of a rut. I was sticking to neutrals and playing it safe with my outfits. I realized that, as a style blogger, I was choosing clothes that were “easy” for others to recreate, instead of wearing what I really wanted to wear. I’ll always love neutrals, and they are SO NECESSARY for building a versatile wardrobe, but I needed to add some more fun to my wardrobe.

This year, I decided to make a change. I wanted to get my fun and personality back into my fashion choices. I started experimenting with different colors, textures, and accessories, and I’ve been loving the results.

One of my favorite ways to add some personality to my outfits is by playing with different colors. I used to shy away from bold hues, but now I’m all about a pop of color. Whether it’s a bright orange scarf or a fun-colored pair of pants (or pink hair!) I love how a bold color can instantly elevate an outfit.

Textures are another way I’ve been spicing up my wardrobe. I used to stick to plain cotton and denim, but now I’m all about mixing things up. I love the look of a chunky knit sweater with a pair of shorts, or a silky blouse paired with distressed jeans. I also love linen and wear it often in the warmer months.

Accessories have also been a game-changer for me. I used to think that accessories were just an afterthought, but now I realize that they can make or break an outfit. I’ve been having fun experimenting with different scarves, bags, and jewelry (but I’ll always love my dainty gold jewelry the most!)

Boots and vests are two of my new favorite accessories this season. I love how a pair of boots (ankle boots, tall boots, or cowboy boots) can make such a difference in an outfit depending on how you wear them, or how a vest can make a simple outfit look more interesting. I love wearing a knit vest over a dress or a plain tee or tank, and I recently ordered a cotton vest from Etsy that I’m excited to wear and style!

While it’s great to experiment with different colors, textures, and accessories, it’s also important to prioritize comfort. After all, if you’re not comfortable in your clothes, you won’t be able to fully enjoy your day. But just because you’re focusing on comfort doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style and personality. There are plenty of comfortable and stylish options out there, so it’s great to try things and find what works for you.

It’s so necessary to remember to have fun with your clothes. Fashion should be a form of self-expression, and it’s a great way to show off your personality. While neutrals will always be in style, it’s important to remember that fashion is personal and should reflect who you are. So don’t be afraid to experiment with different colors, textures, and accessories to find your own unique style!

Also, this doesn’t mean I won’t continue to create outfits that are easy to recreate— I really love doing that for myself and for you! But I will be adding some extra “personality” to some of my outfits here and there for my own happiness 🙂

3 cozy outfits for the winter season

We’re in the thick of January & the winter temperatures seem to be just beginning. I’m hopeful the snow is here to stay & it looks like negative temperatures next week. For me, this means I want to be as cozy & as warm as possible, all while still trying to remain semi cute. I put together a few cozy outfits I’ll be wearing this winter with items from Pinkblush.

If you prefer video content, see the reel HERE.

There will be no additional cost to you, and it is a great way to support creators/bloggers like me. Thanks for your support 🙂

This sweater is soooo soft and has a super cozy material. The color is a warm beige & it goes well with my Portland Leather Festival bag (my bag is the honey color) & my chelsea boots (my boots are the bourbon color)!

This sweater is such a pretty taupe color & is a lookalike for the popular free people easy street tunic. It works well for a casual outfit with jeans & is long enough to wear with leggings for an even comfier outfit.

I own these black linen pants in the taupe color & really love them so I wanted a black pair as well (they come in a bunch of colors). I love the thick waistband and the cute wide leg cut. They’re extremely comfy & cute. I paired them with this rib knit sweater & a pair of heeled black booties to make them more appropriate for winter weather.

Which cozy winter look would you wear?
