The Spring Dress You Can Wear Anywhere

If you’re looking to shop for spring, look no further. This is the spring dress you can wear anywhere and it’s only $68. Whether you’re heading out for brunch, dinner date, even work, this dress is appropriate. While it has a v-neck it’s not too low. The fun playful feel of the knot and how the fabric moves oozes the spirit of spring. I absolutely love the yellow color, which is actually more of a sunshine yellow and less of marigold as portrayed on the site. Plus, I love how a different pair of shoes can really make the feel of this spring dress different. I’m wearing them with some of my favorite heels but a pair of fun flats or even sneakers would change the look. One aspect I love about this dress is long sleeves. They make this dress so chic and the overall length of the dress is just right. Not too long or too short. On my 5’3 frame, it hits just a few inches above my knee.

Designing A Top for Gibson x International Women’s Day Collection

Happy FriYay! I have some huge news to share with y’all and I’m beyond excited! A dream of mine for years is coming true: designing a top for Gibson x International Women’s Day collection! The collection launches March 8 on International Women’s Day and is available at Nordstrom. The top I’m designing is versatile so it’ll be great for both work and the weekend. I can easily see myself restyling it multiple times for different settings and I know you will, too! It comes in two colors and I can’t wait to share a sneak peek with you once the final samples are complete! Being able to share the process with y’all is very exciting and I can’t wait to share what’s next. One reason I love the top I’m designing in particular is its versatility. You’ll be flattering on so many different women. Plus, Gibson offers sizes XXS Petite to XXXL.

Little Pink Skort for a Valentine’s Day Outfit Idea

I can’t believe Valentine’s Day is around the corner! While Johnny and I don’t really celebrate as far as gifts or date night, it is nice to have a day dedicated to love. We believe going the extra mile or putting in effort shouldn’t be confined to a holiday. For example, if I want to get Johnny something nice, I’ll just get it and give it to him. I don’t have to wait for a holiday or a reason to show him I love him. Same goes for him. We’re not big on holidays for gift giving and we are very upfront with our gifts and things we want. That said, I know many people celebrate, so I want to share a fun Valentine’s Day Outfit Idea you can wear again later on in the season.

The Tie-Waist Pants You Can Wear Anywhere

Work clothes don’t have to be boring. These red tie-waist pants are a great staple for the office but also for the weekend. I have these in yellow from last year and they are some of my favorite pair of pants. Of course, the fact they are currently on major sale for only $30 is a huge perk. These pants are a top-seller and are very popular with my readers and those of you who follow me on Instagram. I want to go into more detail about them and different ways you can style them. Plus, these pants come in so many different colors, so I want to make sure no matter which color you order, they flatter you.
