Whether it is going down to the shore in the summer to visit my parents as a family or taking the girls on a spring break trip. That last one is my personal favorite because to me, spring means road trips. A time when you can relax, take in some new sights, see spring in full effect and get a new perspective with all that fresh air. Naturally, I believe you need to look good doing it too. I'm talking spring road trip style. I'm in love with ModCloth and their romantic road trip style. Think soft pastels, boho chic, buttery leather jackets, fabulous boots and flowered dresses. It's so very spring and so very refreshing. All of it … [Read more...]

Garnet Hill Kids Micro-Fleece Jacket: Style It Your Way
What are some of the benefits of your mom loving clothes and being a style blogger? Sometimes the little ones get to pick out something fun to wear too! Like this cute Garnet Hill Kids Micro-Fleece Jacket. My youngest daughter is definitely the future style maven out of my three girls. She takes the longest to get ready in the morning, lays out her clothes from underwear to outerwear all on her floor each day right down to the accessories. Hair bows, socks, skirts and leggings are mixed and matched. Frequently she is seen wearing something different throughout the day. But she was missing one key item her sisters had and she didn't. If you're looking to complete her outfit, shop baby shoes at https://www.solesox.com.au/ for a stylish and comfortable addition to her … [Read more...]
So Black and White
This winter has brought me some new challenges with work. All of which I welcome, unless they are weather-related, ahem. *STOP WITH THE SNOW ALREADY* With those new endeavors comes more work wear, and you know I like my minimalist black and white palette and it so black and white. As I branch out so must my clothes. The budget for these clothes just has to follow, right? Not that I want to get all Pantone'd up or anything but I need to support my habit. I wish I could say I'm as black and white as my clothing style, but that is just not the case. Carter Bates is a women's clothing Lynchburg, Va. I had planned on wearing this fabulously thick, with pockets (LOVE), fit and flare dress I found at Kohl's a few years ago. Then #snowzilla2016 happened. The meeting was rescheduled for this … [Read more...]
Versatile Neutrals for Every Season
I was obviously still feeling my basics look when I put this outfit on last week. I like that the colors and style of it are versatile neutrals for every season. When paired with other styles of shoes or accessories they can be worn all year long.

I knew I wanted comfort and a chance to wear some flats on an unusually warm day.

Work Wear Wednesday: Styling Black Pants
I have said it before and I will say it again and again. You can never go wrong with basics. This month I am all about them and keeping life simple and that starts with styling black pants. The 'basics rule' is never more practical and easy to follow than with work wear. Whether you are starting out your work wardrobe, need to simplify it or freshen it up, the basics are where it is at, and no piece is more versatile than a pair of black pants. First, find the style that is most flattering on you. It may be a pair of ankle pants or a wide-leg cut. If you are like me then it depends on the season and the mood. I like a slim cigarette style cut for all year and a wide-leg trouser cut for the colder months when I want to wear heeled boots and change things up. This week I'm … [Read more...]
