How to Wear White Sneakers As we Head into Spring

No Comments

So I will be the first to admit that I am not a huge sneaker girl– but I want to be! They’re so comfy and they do look cute. SOOO I bought this white pair off of amazon & I am determined to wear them this spring/summer! It doesn’t hurt that this particular pair is also super comfy.
In my determination to wear them, I decided to style them multiple ways. These are 4 looks I came up with! I’m loving them all & I can’t wait for it to be warm enough outside for me to wear bare ankles yet again.

My first look is a crew neck, straight leg jeans, and sneaks. I love this look because it’s very “90’s mom.” My crewneck is from Etsy and has my family’s’ birth month flowers on it, but any cute crewneck sweatshirt will do! I also have a henley sweatshirt from madewell that would look super cute with these!

The second look is a classic spring look– a floral dress, a jean jacket, and sneakers. How cute! I love florals for spring (of course!) and the sneakers dress the whole look down a bit (my dress is sold out but I will link similar options!).

The third look is a white tee, straight leg jeans, cardigan, and sneakers. Very casual, but perfect for running errands or for a play date.

My final look is a graphic tee, floral midi skirt, and the sneakers. Add a rattan circle bag & you look perfect for church or brunch! You could also add your denim jacket here too as an extra layer. Cute & comfy. Win!

Are you a sneaker person? If not, have I inspired you? 😉

3 Ways to Layer a Striped Top in the Winter

No Comments

A striped top is a must in any wardrobe. It is a great layering piece that adds interest no matter the season– a striped tank in the summer, a tee in the spring, and a long sleeve in the fall & winter.
I think the most versatile colors are black (or dark navy!) and white but you could choose whatever colors go best with your wardrobe. I picked up this one at Walmart & it is all sold out at this point, but I will link similar options as a striped long sleeve top is fairly easy to find.

I will be layering this striped top three different ways but keeping the base the same–striped top, straight leg jeans, & sock booties.

This first look is certainly “on-trend”–layering using a shirt jacket, or shacket, as the kids are calling them these days. I really love the shacket trend because I live in Northern NY where it is COLD, so an extra warm layer that is also cute works great! This one is from Amazon and has been one of my favorite shackets to style all winter long!

This second look has a crew neck sweatshirt layered over the striped top. It’s comfy, it’s cute, it’s casual. What more could you want? This cute one from amazon has a tulip hem (easier to see when I link it below) & is a great color.

The third look is a classic–a cardigan and stripes is a tale as old as time. I love a good cardigan outfit & even better if it’s neutral tones. Mine is old, but I linked a bunch of tan/taupe options below.

Which look is your favorite?
Do you like to layer or is it too bulky for you?

3 Ways to Wear Black Denim for the Holidays

No Comments

I love the holidays– there are all sorts of fun events to attend– performances, parties, visiting santa, seeing Christmas lights, getting together with friends, etc.

Some of these events require a fancy outfit, but most of them (at least for me!) don’t require anything too dressed up & I just want to look nice but not be decked out. When I’m looking to elevate an outfit, I usually turn to the color black. It’s classic & always comes through for me.

I put together these three outfits with black denim & I think they’re the perfect amount of “dressed up” but not fancy. I’m wearing skinny jeans but you could also do straight legs, flares, mom jeans, or whatever style fits what you like best!

Almost everything I am wearing in this post is older (my long duster cardigan, black sweater, and necklace are the only linkable items) so I will link similar options if you’d like to use these outfits as inspiration. Alternatively, if you shop your closet I’m sure you could put together some great outfit combos as well!

I love this outfit because it is elevated by wearing a velvet cami. Velvet is a GREAT fabric choice for winter & definitely makes anything feel a bit fancier. Of course, where I live you definitely need a sweater this time a year & I feel like the duster cardigan is a bit fancier than a shorter cardigan. (below, I linked a velvet cami that is more scoop necked & comes in multiple colors– the green & the burgundy are also gorgeous choices!)

A pop of red is always a good choice for the holidays! I chose to add it in with a sweater but you could also choose to do a pop of color with your shoes instead. Alternatively, you could do a green sweater if that’s more your color!

All black is always a favorite (and I have an all black for the holidays outfit guide post in the works!) & the addition of an off-shoulder sweater adds just a touch of appeal! The balloon sleeves on this sweater also make it dressier & more fun.

To dress up each of these outfits I wore my black velvet heels with an ankle strap. You could definitely switch them out for flats or booties too!

Loungewear Sets I’ve Been Living In

No Comments

So loungewear was trending during the beginning stages of the pandemic & I don’t think it’s going anywhere. As we head into cozy season once again I wanted to share the cozy sets I’ve been wearing constantly & will continue to wear all the time! If you want to see them in reel form go HERE.

All items (or similar options) are linked via affiliate links below. Please note that I make a small commission if you purchase using these links & there is no additional cost to you. Thanks for your support! 🙂

Love this set! Unfortunately, I realized after the fact that this set is sold out. I searched and found a couple similar options & linked those.

This set is so good! The waffle knit is comfy and helps it to keep its shape & it comes in SO many colors. I’m also eyeing the beige one!

This is part of the Cool Nights collection at Soma and the ribbed material is so soft and comfy. It also has a bit of lace on the back of the tank and side of the shorts that make it a little bit fancier!

This set is SO comfy and also sold out. Ugh! I found some similar options that I will link!

This set is also from Soma. It is a part of their Aloe Knit collection and so comfy (excuse the wrinkles, I just pulled it out of my drawer). I love the color and cut of it (you can also get pants instead of shorts–will link!)
