Mustard Turtleneck Sweater & Houndstooth Pants


 These houndstooth pants were a great way to switch things up after wearing jeans for what feels like has been forever! It was definitely refreshing to incorporate some color into my outfit. I wanted to kinda dress the pants down and opted to pair them with this mustard knit turtleneck sweater. The perforated detail makes it an essential winter-to-spring transitional piece. Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a great weekend!

Grey+Floral Blouson Top

| Top: Hinge (here) | Jeans: Frame | Heels: Steve Madden( love these lavender suede ones) | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff  |

If you've been following along the blog for years, then it's clear how much my style has changed. Especially after having Sebastian, I feel like outfits I wouldn't hesitate wearing three years ago are just not an option now. Chasing around a one year old takes a lot of work lol. So my outfits as of late have consisted of more laid back looks like this one: jeans, a cute top, and heels(if I'm lucky). I also always carry a pair of uggs or flats in the car to change into.

Bohemian Peasant Top

| Top: Madewell  | Jeans: Zara | Booties: Sam Edelman (sold out in this color but still available in Beige here) | Bag: Tory Burch |

I missed posting on here and Instagram this week! I struggle so much with time management and being able to balance everything out. I have a regular office job Monday-Friday, and Irven's work schedule always changes. So we typically shoot outfits after rushing home from work during the week if I have a deadline, or we will just shoot on weekends. I've also just started school again, and added working out to my schedule(trying to squeeze in 5 days a week), all while trying to spend as much time with Sebastian as possible. We need a day off, or a Vacation! But I definitely feel like it's a good kind of busy, I just have to make a schedule and actually stick to it. About my outfit, I feel like I had peasant tops before they were a thing. I've always been drawn to these bohemian vibes, and pretty prints and colors. These booties have been on major repeat since I got them in the Fall, and I love how they're so versatile and make me look taller even though they don't have a really high heel.

Red Ruffle Sweater

| Sweater: Express (similar)| Jeans: Lucky Brand | Heels: Louboutin Pigalle |

Happy Friday! Looking forward to the weekend and spending time with my boys after a long productive 5 days. I originally got this sweater to wear for the holidays but didn't get around to it, so I guess it's now a Pre-Valentine's look. It's unfortunately sold out online now, hello major winter sales going on everywhere, but you might be able to still grab it in store. I also linked a similar one.  Hope you have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Plaid Boxy Coat

Plaid Coat: Express (70% off!) 

My favorite time to stock up on coats is right after the holidays. I almost never buy stuff full price that I for sure know will go on sale before the end of the season. Outerwear is such a good investment in your wardrobe, you get to bring it out year after year without really having to toss everything like you do with more trendy clothing items. I have jackets that I've had for 5+ years and classic pieces like that will never go out of style. Can y'all believe I scored this coat for 70% off?!?! I'm loving the menswear inspired boxy look. You can shop the coat here.

Reflection

Sweater: Express | Jeans: Charlotte Russe | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff

First post of 2018! I know it's the second week into the new year, but there's so much going on I feel like I haven't had the time to really get settled in. We spent New Years in Vegas, as I mentioned in my previous post. I had planned to shoot a couple of looks out there, but instead we ended up watching movies all day, and spending time with the family (40 degrees was waaaaayy too cold for us). So this past weekend, I just tried to clean and get organized. Let me just say, IT IS SO HARD! I've never been the most organized person, except when the occasional OCD would kick in, but now I find it to be even more difficult to keep our place clean and stay on top of laundry. We've been moved in for a year now, and I feel like I still have boxes to unpack. So that's definitely one of my goals this year, along with consistency in all aspects of my life. We've also been working on redesigning the blog, still a work in progress, but I'm loving how it's turning out! Hope you all have a great Tuesday and thanks for stopping by!
