Crop pants for spring

I know you have seen a lot of blush here lately, but I just love blush for spring. I also love crop pants for spring. Spring is time to show a little more skin, so why not start with the ankles?

Cozy fall sale picks- Saturday Shopping

Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links. I receive commission for clicks and purchases made through them.

We took a little vacation in the mountains this week. I had visions of snuggling by a fire and drinking coffee while wrapped in a blanket all week. It didn't happen as the temps remained quite warm for the week.  It finally started to feel like fall the very last day, so I still have cozy things on my mind.  Express is having 40% off sale and Loft has sweaters and tops 40% off this weekend. Macy's is also taking 25% off purchases this weekend with code FRESH, so here are my picks from these sales.

Ode to summer


 I wish it were not only "ode to summer" but "ode to this heat"! But alas it's not, so I will seize this opportunity to wear the things in my closet that haven't been worn yet this summer, like this cold shoulder white top.

Show some shoulder- Saturday shopping

It's time to show some shoulder! The temps are heating up and I find this to be a trend that most women can wear in some form. It is possible to show a little skin and still be modest.
I'm personally a fan of cold shoulder over off shoulder tops, because the off shoulder ones don't tend to stay in place on me. I did hear from an Instagram contact this morning that this off shoulder top stays in place. Either way, I've rounded up a collection of both for your Saturday shopping.

Happy long weekend! Here are my Labor Day weekend sale picks, all with a look to the upcoming fall season. Macy's is offering up to and extra 20% off with code SUPER. I am in love with those two piece oxfords. They are going on my wish list. How cute would they be with a pair of boyfriend jeans, a white tee, and that faux leather moto jacket? Take another 20% off the jacket at Lord and Taylor with code LABORDAY.

Loft is having a buy one, get one 50% off sale on some items, extra 50% off sale items and my favorite jeans are at one of their lowest price points, no code needed. I scooped up this cute scarf yesterday for $7 and some change.

JCrew factory is having a 50% off sale. I jumped the gun and ordered the sleeveless sweater a couple of weeks ago at 40% off and I'm keeping it. It's soft with a nice structured fit. Not too sloppy or slouchy. The skirt is on it's way to me now because I outgrew (lol) my other leopard print skirt.

Happy Shopping! Let me know what deals you find!

Easy breezy




Top- Macy's (sold out) option    option    option
pants- Old Navy  option  option  option
shoes- Old Navy  option  option  option
bracelets- Cato  option
earrings- Target  option  option
  
I know that you just saw this top a couple of weeks ago, but it's been a summer favorite this year. It is so light and comfy. This time I paired it with my wide leg pants, another easy, breezy favorite.  What have you had on heavy rotation this season?
 
If you are still looking to pick up something from the Nsale, check out my list of items under $25.  The short sleeve tee is a great wear now item, and the long sleeve tee will be a great fall/winter staple.

Embroidered split sleeve top





Top- Macy's (sold out) option  option  option  option
shorts- Old Navy  option  option
shoes- Lucky Brand      option
bracelets-old  option  option

 
 

I'm much happier with this top styled this way vs the first time around when I missed the mark on an all white look. This top is proving to be a very cool and comfortable piece in this ridiculous heat. And I'm getting lots of wear out of these wedges. Are you sick of seeing them? They are just too comfortable, and with a 2.5 inch height, they give a little lift but aren't too tall to wear all day and walk in.

One more day until public access for the Nordstrom sale starts. You can see my casual picks here and my work wear picks here.

DIY tassel jewlery





skirt- thrifted  option  option  option
shoes- Old Navy (old)  option  option  option
necklace- DIY  option  option   option
tassel bracelets- DIY  option  option  option  option
earrings- (old)  option  option
 
I have been admiring all the tassel jewelry that is on trend right now, but I couldn't really justify the purchase when it wouldn't really fit in with my work attire. Then one day I popped into Michaels and noticed some tassels and colorful beads on clearance. I already had other beads and all the tools for making jewelry so I decided make my own. The bracelets are really easy to make- just string your beads and tassels on stretch magic cord and tie it in a knot. Glue your knot and you are done.
 
I also made another set of stacked bead tassel bracelets and a beaded wrap charm bracelet while I was at it. You may have seen those on Instagram. The wrap bracelet is for sale in my Poshmark closet.
 
I love how these bright colors pop against my white cold shoulder top. I know that "off shoulder" is having a moment now, but I've decided the cold shoulder top is more my jam. I'm just a bit picky about tops being too flowy and almost returned this one. I'm glad I didn't because I really like it with the fitted skirt. It will work well with skinny jeans too, and I can probably tuck it into shorts.
 
What trends are you admiring right now?

Cold shoulder, twists, and a link up


Hi everyone. I'm excited because today I'm doing something different. If you follow me, then you know that obviously I did something different with my hair. I rarely ever style it but in it's regular cut, but I decided to go a little boho and pull the "bangs" back in some twists.

But that's not all that's different. Today I'm cohosting Jersey Girl Texan Heart's link up! I've decided to step out and do something a little different with the blog. I do hope you will go visit Monica and follow her on her social channels. She is the sweetest girl with the cutest, most fun sense of style. She has always left me the most encouraging comments, and I love following her blog. I'm honored to be cohosting with her today. Be sure to link up below.



As for the hair, it's quite simple to do. Grab a small section of "bangs" or hair in the front on each side and twist them towards the back. Meet each twist in the middle at the crown and secure with a clear tiny rubber band.  Done.  Head out and have some fun.
