Flirty Florals

Happy Tuesday! So Florida has been all kinds of hot lately! I mean like, I can’t breath after being outside for 10 seconds kind of hot! So anything that combines keeping me cool but also being super cute is a total win in my book and this adorable Lookbook Store romper is doing just that! The sleeveless top and flowy shorts are perfect for the hot days and the bright floral print just yells Summer! Because Summer isn’t over yet!! Also, I cannot get enough of the adorable pom pom detail! I paired it with a chunky platform sandal to make this look super flirty and threw on a bright pink bag to finish the look! I hope everyone has a wonderful Tuesday! <3

Anniversary

vintage wedding, pink and grey wedding colors, lace wedding dress, backless wedding dress, vine and light photography

Happy Monday! I hope everyone had a great weekend! My family vacation was nice and relaxing, besides my crying niece every morning at 5am ha! She’s lucky she’s cute! ;) Anyways I am back for good now! So today I wanted to take a break from my fashion posts because today is my husband and I’s second wedding anniversary! Everyone says marriage is hard work, but let me tell you my husband makes it so easy! He is my best friend, high school sweetheart, biggest supporter, and my rock! I honestly don’t know what I would do without him! There is definitely no one else I would want to go through life with and I cannot wait to see what our future holds! So since I never shared my wedding pictures on my blog yet, I decided to share a few of my favorites! They were shot by the amazing Shannon of Vine and Light Photography. If you live in the Central Florida area I definitely recommend her! I hope everyone has a great Monday! <3

TGIF!! I am keeping it super casual today in this amazing lace up Sugar Love Boutique tank. The lace detail combined with the flowy fit makes it cute and edgy, which I totally love! I paired it with some vintage cut off Levi’s with a cool frayed edge. I accessorized with a gold armband and black hat to add to the edgy feel. I finished this look with some grey booties, which I am obsessing over right now! I can’t get enough of the low cut and zipper detail! I hope everyone has an amazing weekend! <3

Floral Glow

Happy Thursday! So there is no question that I love a good maxi! They are so easy and comfortable it’s just hard not to love them! This one from Ami Clubwear is seriously one of my favorites! The dark floral pattern and off the shoulder ruffles is just perfect! I love that it still has a bohemian vibe but is still super feminine! I paired it with a studded black sandal and some bangles. I hope everyone is having an amazing week! <3

Paint & Leather

Wear the paint, black crop top, express skirt, leather pencil skirt, free people arm cuff, free people armband, going out outfit, date night outfit

Happy Wednesday! Black and gold is one of my absolute favorite color combos! It is so edgy and chic. I am in love with this Wear the Paint crop top! The gold design is hand painted along with everything else in their shop, so definitely check them out! Everything is super unique! I paired it with a leather pencil skirt for more of a night time look. I threw on some strappy heels and a gold armband to give this look more of an edge. I hope everyone has a fabulous hump day! Also, I am gone on another vacation for the rest of the week, so I apologize if I seem MIA! Every year my family goes to the west coast of Florida on a scalloping trip (snorkeling for scallops if you aren’t sure what that is ;)). So I will basically be out on the boat all day, but will try my best to get back to everyone at night! <3

Happy Tuesday! So August is here whether we are ready or not and that means it is time to start thinking of that transition into fall, going back to school, and getting back into our jeans! Today I have teamed up with American Eagle for their #AEOSTYLE Denim Challenge, which we all know by now I can’t get enough of American Eagle’s jeans! Whether your favorite is distressed skinnies or relaxed boyfriends, American Eagle definitely has you covered! They asked me to style my absolute favorite, the Hi-Rise Artist. Ya’ll know my love affair with my flares, so I was all over it! I wanted to keep this look super casual and relaxed so I paired my Artist jean’s with a white peasant top, which the light material makes it perfect for that fall transition. I accessorized with a tie dye headband and turquoise necklace to add to the boho feel of this look. I finished with a fun tribal print bag and peep toe chunky heel. I hope everyone has a fabulous Tuesday and make sure to check out American Eagle’s blog for more on my look! <3

Happy Monday! Where did the weekend go?! I feel like it was just Friday! So how dreamy is this dress from Lookbook Store?! I absolutely love the high neck, lace detail and of course the flowiness! I also wore this dress belted for more of a polished look and absolutely fell in love! Also, the price tag of $27 is a big win! Although, the dress is not lined so make sure you have a slip before ordering! I paired it with a peep toe bootie to give this look a little bit of a rustic boho feel and accessorized with gold bangles. I hope everyone has an amazing Monday! <3

Getting Flashy

forever 21 maxi, forever 21 dress, flash tattoos, date night outfit, gold clutch, up do ideas,

TGIF and happy first day of August! I cannot believe it is August already! This year is totally flying! So this look is my last look from New Orleans and it’s what I wore on our last night there. We ate at an amazing restaurant called Cafe Amelie and sat in their beautiful courtyard. Also, they had the best shrimp and grits I have ever had! I mean seriously I could live off just eating it the rest of my life and be totally happy! For my outfit, I wore this beautiful Forever 21 maxi. I absolutely love the low back and side cut outs. Funny story about this dress, when I saw it I fell in love, but I looked at the price tag (remember we are in Forever 21 here) and it said $399.99. My friend and I looked at each other like um what?! So I still tried it on praying it was a mistake and it wasn’t some special collab with Versace or something! :p So I got to the register and the cashier just laughed and said oh ya that’s definitely a mistake because it rang up for $25!! Yes I said it! This dress is $25! Mind blown! I accessorized with some Flash Tattoos to make this look a little more edgy. Warning: while wearing Flash Tattoos in public you may get many compliments on the glitter/jewels/necklace down your back. ;) I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! <3

Cool & Colorful

off the shoulder top, casual summer outfit, american eagle shorts, gianni bini sandals, grateful bags,layered and long necklace

Happy almost Friday!! So today I have another casual New Orleans outfit. I wore this while hitting all the super cute boutiques and shops! I found this amazing multi colored off the shoulder top at a local boutique. It was one of those I have to have it moments right when I laid eyes on it! I paired it with some black cut offs to keep it nice and cool and casual. I threw on some gold sandals for some spice and accessorized with this adorable monogrammed Grateful Bags clutch, which also comes with a strap so it can turn into a mini crossbody bag, seriously so cute! This bag was so perfect for running around NOLA, since it’s so compact! These also come in a bunch of color combos so they will be perfect for the upcoming football season, hint hint tailgating!

Happy Wednesday! So today I have my anniversary dinner look (early anniversary ;)). We went to dinner in the restaurant in out hotel called the Crystal Room and it was amazing! The decor took us back in time and made us feel like royalty! Also, the food was absolutely amazing and we had bread pudding for dessert that almost made me fall out of my chair. Seriously, it was that good! Anyways, on to the outfit. I got this amazing long sleeved maxi from Sophie & Trey. Something about a long sleeved maxi just makes it super elegant! Not to mention the print is so gorgeous! I paired it with a lucite heel and accessorized with some pretty crystal earrings from Zoe & J. Don’t forget you can get 15% off your entire purchase with code UPBEAT! I hope everyone has an amazing Wednesday! <3
