A T-Shirt Dress Styled 3 Ways for Fall
I love a t-shirt dress during the summer! It is such an easy throw on piece and can be dressed up or down by adding a few accessories. Now that it’s Fall though I thought it would be fun to show you a few different ways I style my two favorite t-shirt dresses for when the days are shorter and cooler! Look #1 This first look is really perfect for work. but it’s really good for taking a stroll or going shopping as well. I bought this new jacket from Old Navy recently and it was 50% off…no I’m not kidding! It’s a beautiful camel color with a zipper and…

My Current Skincare Routine
Full disclosure here, I’ve never really done a lot with skincare. I posted about my nighttime routine back in 2017 which included some skincare bits but to be honest that routine did not last much longer than that post. I find that when I have a ton of steps I am less likely to stick to a skincare routine which is why the only two steps that I’ve done consistently in my adult life is cleansing and moisturizing. Less is more in my opinion and I have sensitive skin on my face so trying a bunch of different types of products usually doesn’t end with my skin feeling all that…

Weekday Wardrobe #2
It’s the tail end of summer and I will be honest, I find this time of year very difficult to dress in terms of transitioning. I love the bright colors of summer clothes but sometimes I am really just ready to throw on my cozy sweaters that I live in for the whole of late fall and all of winter. This is just a really simple outfit for work that is comfortable but a little more put together. I love the color of this top and the peplum shape is really flattering. I always pair this one with a pair of darker wash jeans because for me they make the…

I love a Plain White T…and I’m not just talking about a member of the alternative/emo band of my “Hey There Delilah” dreams. No friends, I am literally talking about a Plain White T-shirt.

Blogs I am Loving
While we’ve been in lockdown, I have fallen back in love with reading blogs! Blogs have always been a source of inspiration for me and are of course what influenced me into wanting to start a blog of my own! Here are the ones I have been loving recently! 1. Jojotastic – This is a recent discovery. She is a Seattle based lifestyle blogger and I LOVE her decorating style! 2. Wit & Delight – This feels like such a grown-up blog. The topics discussed range from career development, interiors & décor, to food & entertainment, and more! I find the articles very insightful and enjoyable! 3. The Every Girl – This is…

Body Positivity And Wedding Dress Shopping
A few months ago, I made an appointment for wedding dress shopping at a boutique in Seattle called I Do Bridal. For full disclosure, before we got engaged, I never dreamed about what my wedding would be like let alone what kind of wedding dress I would want to wear. So that I didn’t show up without a plan in mind I went to Pinterest and created a private board and began searching for my perfect wedding dress. Turns out I had a very specific silhouette in mind. I had paid for a premium appointment which meant we got a special seating area to try on dresses and the money…

Current Nighttime Routine
During the work week it is important to me to have a nightly routine to help me wind down before I go to sleep. In the past I would go to bed a various times during the week and a lot of times I would lay in bed scrolling through my phone and before I knew it the time would be 11 pm and I would still be wide awake. In an attempt to reduce that screen time and get a better night sleep I have implemented this night-time routine. It’s still a work in progress but I already am feeling more relaxed in the evenings! I try to go…

My Bath Time Essentials
Follow my blog with Bloglovin When learning to live a happy and balanced life it is important to take some time out for yourself. One of my favorite ways to have “me” time is to take a relaxing bath. I’m not just talking about some water in a tub, I create a spa like atmosphere that leaves me feeling relaxed and refreshed. I light candles, add bubbles, turn on fairy lights…the whole nine yards! I find that being alone for an hour every now and then allows me to let go of a lot of the pent up anxiety or stress I may be harboring. I can zone out to…
