Dressed Up Boyfriend Jeans & The Weekly Style Edit Link Up

Yay for long weekends! I actually didn’t even realize it was a long weekend until yesterday, and now I’m extra pumped that it’s almost here. Earlier this week I shared a glimpse of this outfit in my 5 wardrobe pieces to buy now & wear throughout spring post, and for good reason… it totally felt like spring here last week. I was so excited to break out my favorite pair of boyfriend jeans and open toe shoes as soon as it hit 70! I wore this when we went out for dinner for my sister’s birthday last weekend, and it wound up being the perfect outfit that was a combination of comfort and a little bit dressed up. I recently received these amazingly fabulous Baublebar Crispin drop earrings and have to say they’re a bit out of my comfort zone. I don’t typically wear a lot of statement earrings, but these were way too fun to pass up. I can’t wait to wear them throughout the spring and summer, and would love to style them next with a floral print top or dress!

Megan from The Fashionista Momma and I are back for The Weekly Style Edit link up today and we can’t wait to see all of the amazing looks you have to share with us.

5 Wardrobe Pieces to Buy Now & Wear Throughout Spring

Happy Wednesday! I hope you had a wonderful Valentine’s Day yesterday. I’m not sure what the weather has been like where you live, but things have been so random here. Last week it was in the 70’s and on Monday we woke up to snow! I am totally ready to say goodbye to winter, especially after having a little glimpse of spring last week. Getting my wardrobe for spring is probably one of my favorite seasonal transitions. I am all about incorporating light layers and bright colors into my outfits! Today I’m sharing 5 wardrobe pieces that you definitely need to buy now and can wear throughout spring (and even into summer).

1. Perforated Ankle Boots/Booties – I bought my first pair of perforated boots last fall and it certainly won’t be my last. There are so many cute perforated options out right now. Ankle boots look so cute paired with jeans in the winter and with a flowy printed dress throughout the spring. The pair I’m wearing in the above photo are still available in a ton of colors, and are under $100!

2. Lightweight Jacket – I may or may not have a slight obsession with utility jackets. I have a few already, but would love to branch out and pick one up in a color other than green. A denim jacket is also another one of my go-to layering pieces when transitioning from season to season. I also love that the bomber jacket trend is going strong!

3. Turquoise Jewelry – You may have recently seen me wear this gorgeous turquoise seaglass necklace, or these turquoise Kendra Scott earrings in a few of my posts. Being from New Mexico, I feel like it would be a sin if I didn’t like turquoise jewelry! It is such a pretty color all year long, but something about it really screams spring to me! I love the bright pop of color it can add to any outfit.

4. Anything Floral – There is nothing that says spring more than florals. Yes, it may seem a bit cliche, but let’s be real – everyone is excited to break out their floral prints as soon as the temperature rises! I love a bold floral print on pretty much anything, especially lightweight tops and jackets like the ones I’ve linked below.

5. Light Denim – I love a good pair of light blue distressed boyfriend jeans, but for some reason can’t bring myself to wear them between November and February. I’ve seen plenty of girls rock them no matter what month it is, but I prefer to reserve my lighter denim for the warmer months. White jeans are also a great option.

What spring trends do you love the most?

Striped Peplum & The Weekly Style Edit Link Up

Would you believe me if I told you this was the very first peplum top that I’ve ever owned? Typically they just don’t do me any favors (my fellow curvy girls with hips will know what I mean). I originally found the toddler version for Harper and fell in love. Shortly after I bought the one for her, I immediately started to wonder if I’d be able to find one for myself… my husband laughs at me because I always have twinning on my mind! I didn’t have to look very hard for a matching peplum, thanks to Old Navy. They are the best when it comes to matching/coordinating clothes for mamas and their littles! This peplum is surprisingly flattering, and I immediately knew I wanted to pair it with a bold statement necklace. Baublebar to the rescue! This turquoise seaglass bib is even prettier in person, and I love that the style is so New Mexico! With that being said, I’m definitely excited to be sharing this outfit with you today for The Weekly Style Edit link up with Megan from The Fashionista Momma. Last week for The Weekly Style Edit I shared a super easy, comfy, and cute Valentine’s Day look, and you know I’ll be re-wearing that outfit next Tuesday! Be sure to come by and share your favorite fashion post with Megan and I below, and get some outfit inspiration from all of the other lovely ladies who link up!

Easy Valentine’s Day Outfit & The Weekly Style Edit Link Up

valentines day outfit #valentinesday #valentinesoutfit

The first Friday in February (say that 5 times fast!)… it’s freaking me out just a little bit. Not to sound overdramatic, but I feel like it’s going to be summer before we know it. We actually had a little glimpse at warmer weather this week and it was glorious! I got away with wearing this outfit without a jacket and I loved every minute of it!

You may remember this sweatshirt from my Valentine’s gift guide under $50. Even though I just got it, I pretty much plan to wear it non-stop for the next few weeks. You know I’m Old Navy obsessed, so it should be no surprise that I want this sweatshirt in every color and print! For $22, how could you pass it up? It’s never to early to start outfit planning for Valentine’s Day, no matter what your plans are. For more outfit inspiration, be sure to check out The Weekly Style Edit link up below. Megan from The Fashionista Momma and I love to see all of the great looks you share with us each week. We hope you will join us again today!

Valentine’s Day Favorites and Gift Ideas Under $50

My husband and I have actually never really been that big on giving gifts, especially big gifts, for Valentine’s Day. I’m not sure why, it’s just never been our thing. Since we started dating almost 11 years ago, we have always made it a tradition to cook and enjoy a fancy dinner at home. It definitely feels a lot more personal and intimate than going out. I say all of this as a huge preface because I totally realize that most people do exchange gifts and prefer to go out, which is a wonderful alternative! I’m all about people doing things that work best for them! With that said, today I put together a little list of some of my favorite Valentine’s inspired gifts for any lady in your life (in case you’re looking for ideas). I may or may not have already purchased a few of these for myself… so hint, hint, you’ll probably be seeing the Old Navy heart sweatshirt around later this week!

What are your plans for Valentine’s Day?

I’m Not Like a Regular Mom, I’m a Cool Mom

Happy Friday, I hope you had a good week! For some reason when I was putting together today’s post I had a bit of a hard time coming up with a title. Finally, one of my favorite Mean Girls quotes popped into my head. At that point, I had trouble getting it out. I know, I know… “I’m not like a regular mom, I’m a cool mom” is pretty over-played at this point, but it just felt so fitting for this outfit #sorrynotsorry. I actually don’t even think I can count on two hands how many times I’ve worn a combination of this outfit.

Earlier this week I talked about the only 5 pieces you need to create the perfect momiform. I would definitely say that the ones included in today’s post could be equally fitting because for me, the ultimate momiform consists of comfortable and practical pieces. I used to never be a sneakers outside of the gym type of girl, but recently picked up this pair of Nikes and have found myself wanting to wear them almost daily. Speaking of my latest shoe obsessions, last week for The Weekly Style Edit link up I shared another one of my recent favorite finds – suede over the knee boots for under $75. Today Megan from The Fashionista Momma and I are back for another edition of The Weekly Style Edit. We love to see all of the great outfits that you all share with us, and hope you will join us again today! Add you link below and be sure to show some love to the other lovely bloggers as well. Enjoy your weekend!
