Spring is in the Air...

Hubby and I are currently in Santa Barbara -- and with the weather in the mid seventies, I can't help but think about Spring!

I've rounded up the cutest warm weather dresses. Whether you need a new frock for Easter, a baby shower, bridal shower, or just brunch with the girls -- I've got you covered!

Pretty In Pink

Pink is by far my favorite color and with Valentine's Day right around the corner, I thought I would round up some of the gorgeous pink products that are on the market right now. From blush to magenta, I've included a perfect shade of pink to appeal to everyone's palette. 









Happy Monday!

Puffer [Fish]...

San Antonio did not get the memo that the temperature is supposed to start dropping. We're still in the 90's y'all! So hot!

I'm just patiently waiting until it cools down so I can wear my new puffer vest! Any day now...

I love a good puffer vest, so I rounded up some of my fall favorites! Enjoy!






Anyone else love puffy vests?

Sweater Weather...

While it is still hot, humid, and well into the 90's in San Antonio, stores are gearing up for fall. The thought of trying on autumn attire makes me sweat just thinking about it, but it is nice to know that cool, crisp air will make its way to the south west at some point in the next few months. 

Since it never gets too terribly cold in San Antonio, I am a big fan of thin, lightweight sweaters to keep me warm when the temperatures drop. 

Here are a few that I hope to add to my wardrobe. 







Is it sweater weather where you live? Where is your favorite place to buy sweaters?

I'm Feeling a Little Puffy?

For some reason I have an obsession with puffy vests!

Kir recieved one as a gift when she was in high school and it sat in her closet for years. I would wear it when I would come home for Christmas break from college and I loved how it would keep me warm and was far less bulky than a jacket. 

Last Christmas I decided to steal take usurp borrow adverse possess(?) -- y'all get the idea -- her puffy vest! 

I am excited for the weather to cool down a bit so I can totally rock the puffy vest again this season. 

Here a few of my favorite vests for fall!






What do y'all think of the puffy vest?

Mad About Plaid

Ready or not! Fall is on its way -- September 23, 2014, to be exact!!! 

One thing I love about fall is the clothes -- darker colors and layer upon layer of fabric to cozy up in! 

My mom has made me various hand knits (socks, sweaters, scarves) and I love being able to wear them in chilly weather.

One of my favorite prints for cooler months is plaid! You can dress it up or dress it down and it always looks festive, classy, and right on point!

Here are a few of my favorite plaids for autumn!

Pack a Picnic - My Favorite Gingham Finds

I've always been a big fan of gingham! My first introduction to the print was when I was a little girl - my baton costume was a pair of red daisy dukes and a white eyelet crop top with little red and white checked sleeves. (I'm hunting for a picture as we speak!) 

Now a days my love for the print is a whole lot more sophisticated, but it still reminds me of my 7 year old self marching in parades to the tune of "Boot Scootin' Boogie!"

Below are some of my favorite gingham prints for the warm weather months ahead!









Time to plan a picnic y'all! Do you like gingham? How do you like to style this print? Chime in with a comment below!

What to Wear This Wedding Season




 Wedding season is upon us y'all! Not sure what to wear? Here are a few ideas to get you started on what you'll want to wear to all of the festivities! 

What to Wear to a... Bridal Shower

A conservative sun dress is always appropriate for a bridal shower! Punch it up with some fun accessories like this teal statement necklace. Wedges are a great alternative to heels especially if the party will be held on the lawn.


What to Wear to a... Rehearsal Dinner

If you were invited to the rehearsal dinner, more than likely you are a member of the wedding party and are coming to the dinner from the rehearsal. You'll want to wear something comfortable, yet classy, especially if you'll be helping with any set up  at the rehearsal.  Bring the shoes you'll be wearing to the wedding with you to the rehearsal -- sometimes the wedding coordinator will pair bridesmaids with groomsmen based on height.


What to wear to... a wedding

My philosophy is, as long as you're not wearing white or a big poofy ball gown, anything is fair game for a wedding! If the invitation doesn't give you instructions for your attire (ie. cocktail, black tie, formal..) you can always Google the venue. Is the reception at a country club? A church? A museum? You should be able to get an idea of how fancy you should dress based on the venue. Still confused? Ask the Maid of Honor or another close friend of the bride. 

Anyone have upcoming wedding festivities to attend? What are you wearing? I'd love to know!

XOXO

To the Max[i Dresses]

I'm a big fan of maxi dresses for spring and summer. They are super comfy and can easily be dressed up or down.

I have a few trips planned this summer and I'll definitely be packing my maxi dresses. Paired with a denim jacket if the weather is cool or a floppy straw hat for a day in the sun, a long dress is super versatile and chic!

Here are five I've got my eye on!






Do you like to wear a maxi dress when the weather warms, or do you prefer something a little shorter? Chime in with a comment below!
