Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day weekend!

Today’s look is a satin button down paired with acid wash jeans and Keds! I’m convinced this shirt can make any outfit look put together! The satin helps reflect the color well in different lightings and movements, and the pink is so pretty in person. Also a bonus: it’s lightweight, flowy, and very comfortable! One of my favorite details is the hidden button placket, which minimizes the amount of visible construction and gives the shirt a sleek overall look.

These Keds are by Kate Spade 🙂 They were a Christmas gift but they’re available at Nordstrom Rack, which I linked above. I looove the bows on them! They take up about half the shoe and they lay flat on the top. These shoes have a satin finish to them as well, which helps them pick up the light nicely.

That’s all I have for today. Thank you so much for reading along today! I’ll see you back on Wednesday 🙂

Hi friends! Today’s look is another outfit idea for Valentine’s day. It’s a balloon sleeve floral dress with gathering along the bodice and a tulip-shaped hem. A full floral pattern can easily overpower the garment it shapes, but this tulip-shaped hem really helps to break up the fabric. I love that the skirt drapes into the hem with the illusion of a wrap dress, yet it’s structured enough that it won’t open to expose anything. The gathering on the bodice of this dress blends into the skirt and gives the dress a little more texture and movement. It also has a square neckline in the front and back, which is a flattering feature on a variety of body types.

My shoes are from Amazon, although I’ve seen a lot of similar pairs from different stores. I purchased these last spring and I think they’re so fun! To be honest, it took a couple wears to get used to. You definitely have to make sure to tie them tight in order for them to stay on, but once you get the hang of it, they’re really fun to wear!

That’s it for today 🙂 I’m so glad you stopped by today and I hope to have you again on Friday!

I’m a week late buuut happy February! We did this shoot last week and it was SO. COLD. Oh my goodness, I couldn’t feel my fingers or toes by the end of it!

Today’s look is a day-to-night outfit for Valentine’s day! It’s a two-piece velour set paired with a pink tweed jacket, quilted purse, and heels. This two-piece is insanely comfortable! I styled it for a night out, but I think it’s a really good option if you’re staying in too. The comfort and simplicity of it allow you to style it so many different ways! I think it would also be really cute with a button down shirt and platform sneakers. The sizing is perfect (I’m in my normal size in both the top and bottom) and the top doesn’t slide down one bit.

My tweed coat was a birthday gift to myself this year. It’s Kate Spade and I love how classy it is! It has three huge buttons on the top half of the coat, which lets the fabric move more freely at the bottom. It’s a little on the lighter side for an overcoat, but that makes it easy to layer!

That’s a wrap for today. Thank you so much for reading along! Until Wednesday..
