    Valentine’s Day 2021

           SWEATER: Cynthia Rowley  |  HAIR CLIPS: H&M         I was planning on doing an outfit post for Valentine’s Day this year but I wasn’t really in the mood to go out and take photos.  The weather was kind of chilly and windy as well.  I just wore this sweater again this year.  I wore it last year too.  I think it’s perfect for this holiday because it’s red and pink.  I paired it with these hair clips, that I also wore last year.  Obviously, they are perfect for V-Day.            We pretty much stayed home because of the weather and…

    4th of July 2020

      TOP: Freshman 1996  |  SHORTS: Target  |  NECKLACE: Shein  |  BAG: Coach  |  SNEAKERS: Target  |  SUNGLASSES: Zero UV  |  EARRINGS: Local Eclectic            I’m sure a lot of people had a bit of a strange Independence Day this year.  I did too.  I normally go to the beach or on a boat and see a big fireworks display, but not this year.  All of the beaches in Southern California were closed because of Covid.  It was a real struggle finding ways to celebrate and have fun.  Since I don’t really have friends or family in California to celebrate with it was just me, my husband, and puppy.…

    What to Wear on Memorial Day

    DRESS: Papillon  |  BAG: Olivia Miller (similar)  |  CARDIGAN: Forever 21  |  SUNGLASSES: T.J. Maxx (similar)  |  SNEAKERS: Target (similar)            For Memorial Day this year I just wore this dress that I got in a sample sale for Nordstrom Rack.  It’s navy blue with little red and white flowers.  I really love the print.  It’s subtile and a little bit patriotic.  My favorite thing to wear on Memorial Day is something red, white, or blue, but kind of subtile.  I like to save the more gaudy Americana clothing for the 4th of July.  I really don’t have too many things that are appropriate for these…

    QuaranEaster

    TOP: Topshop  |  JEANS: Target  |  BASKET: Walmart  |  Dog toy and bow tie: Target           Happy QuaranEaster everybody.  This year for Easter we are obviously just staying home.  Since my husband and I got a puppy recently, we have been having lots of fun playing with him.  We got him a little Easter basket with some toys and treats, along with our own.  We didn’t do much aside from watch TV, eat turkey burgers and candy, and dye eggs.  I wore this super casual outfit.  I wanted to wear a colorful sequin top that I got from a Nordstrom Rack sample sale, but it’s not very comfortable.…

    Paperless Post Christmas Cards

              This year was the first year my fiancé and I sent Christmas cards.  We used an alternative method to traditional cards.  We sent digital cards from Paperless Post.  This is the card that we sent.  I thought it was super cute because I love gingerbread houses.  Paperless Post has all sorts of invitations and card options.  I thought about doing new years cards but fell in love with the cute little gingerbread house.  They also work with a bunch of other companies that I love to create pretty designs, like Kate Spade and Grey Malin.  Check out the site for the next time you need to…
