I’ve shared this pair of high-waisted jeans before for a more casual daytime look, but today I wanted to switch it up. I thought it would be fun to style these jeans for a low key date night look. Now I’ll be honest, this outfit hasn’t actually made it on a date yet. I am, however, already planning to wear it in a few weeks. My husband and I have tickets to see one of our favorite bands, The Avett Brothers. My hubby laughed at me while taking these pictures when I told him that I already had my outfit planned for our date night. Date nights around here are a lot less frequent than they were before Harper was born, so we always try to make the best of them!
Maybe it’s because I’m in my 30’s and am a mom, but when I think of date night style, I always lean toward a more casual look. That’s clearly my style to begin with, but I truly believe to enjoy a date night, one must be comfortable. You have to wear what makes you feel confident and at your best! Whether that’s a dress and a sky-high pair of heels, or a pair of jeans and flats, you have to do what works for you! Not to sound old fashioned, but it’s also nice to consider what your partner likes seeing you in. Mine has always been a fan of a good pair of jeans and flat shoes, so I usually meet him somewhere in the middle. After all, relationships are all about compromise, right?

Happy Valentine’s Day! I actually planned to post this outfit last week, but that didn’t happen. It’s probably a good thing I waited because I think this outfit is perfect for Valentine’s Day! You may have seen a little sneak peek of it yesterday on Instagram. Let’s just say I’m totally getting ready for spring, although I’m trying to remind myself we still have a few months to go before it actually feels like spring.





The countdown is on until Valentine’s Day! It falls on a weekday, which sometimes makes it tricky to make plans with your Valentine. Thankfully my husband and I have adopted the tradition over the years to stay in on Valentine’s Day and make a special dinner at home. Even though we celebrate at home, I try to wear something festive for the day. Today I am sharing 4 easy outfits to wear for Valentines Day that are super simple to put together.

One of the hardest parts about living in New Mexico during the winter is just how dry our climate can be. We hardly get any moisture, so I feel like I am constantly struggling with dry skin. I’m always on the lookout for skincare products that help prevent any winter skin problems.I recently discovered a new Olay moisturizer:
