Suede OTK Boots Under $75

suede OTK boots under 75TGIF! This week wound up flying by and I can’t believe it’s already almost the weekend. We actually don’t have any big plans this weekend, which is always a positive in my book. This week I decided that I want to plan to go to my first blog conference this summer and I really couldn’t be more excited! More to come as the details unfold, so for now let’s stick to fashion! Last week for The Weekly Style Edit I shared a super cute printed top from Pink Blush, and today I’m back to bring you my absolute new favorite pair of boots.
I have been wanting to get a pair of over the knee boots for-ev-er! I finally found the perfect pair and the best part is they are under $75, available in 3 different colors, and are available in both regular and wide calf. Does it get any better than that? They are also perfect if you’re tall like me because they actually hit me right above the knee! You guys know I am not a big dress person, but now that I have these boots, I totally want to wear them with every casual dress I own. Do you own a pair of OTK boots? I’d love to hear your favorite ways to style them!

The Weekly Style Edit Link Up & Pink Blush Giveaway

Happy Friday! Hope you had a wonderful week and hopefully are looking at a 3 day weekend coming up. Are you guys sick of hearing about and seeing this Sole Society bag yet? I hope not, because I can’t stop wearing it. I initially shared it last week for The Weekly Style Edit link up, and here it is again #sorrynotsorry. Honestly, I haven’t switched to another purse since I got this one for Christmas, and I really don’t see an end in sight. I’m also loving this printed blouse from Pink Blush! The color reminds me a bit of something I would typically wear in the spring, and I definitely plan to wear it well into the next season. Also, it is a bit longer in the back, which allows me to get away with wearing denim leggings with it, so that’s basically a total win! Today Megan from The Fashionista Momma and I are back to bring you another edition of The Weekly Style Edit link up. We would absolutely love for you to share your favorite outfit post with us and find some new style inspiration from the other fabulous ladies who link up!

10 Winter Wardrobe Must Haves for Every Woman


It really hasn’t felt a lot like winter here in New Mexico until recently, and now that it’s hit I am so excited to pull out some of my winter pieces. Don’t get me wrong… it’s been really nice to be able to leave the house in the morning with a light jacket or a cardigan, but I do enjoy wearing a cozy scarf and coat from time to time. New Mexico certainly does not have crazy winters, although we did get our first snow last week. I’m sure if you live in a much colder (or warmer) place, your must have list might be slightly different, however I thought it would be fun to share 10 winter wardrobe must haves for every woman that make great layering pieces no matter what climate you live in.

What are your winter wardrobe must haves?

1. Neutral Color Saddle Bag – You all know I couldn’t live with a good crossbody bag, but it’s sometimes hard to find one that is big enough to fit everything I need. This saddle bag from Sole Society is everything and more! You can see a full look I posted recently with it here.

2. Oversized Infinity Scarf – I seriously live in scarves from about November until March. I love infinity scarves because they stay put and don’t get caught in purse straps or tangled up in a coat.

3. Over the Knee Suede Boots – I finally broke down and bought a pair and let me tell you… they are a total game changer! Perfect to pair with denim, leggings, or even a dress/skirt.

4. Distressed Black Jeans – Black or dark denim is flattering on everyone, no matter what size or body shape you are!

5. Faux Fur Lined Parka – This is definitely a piece I can’t live without. It’s cute and functional all at the same time.

6. Moto Leggings – Because let’s be real… when it’s cold out throwing on a pair of leggings and boots are about a good as it gets!

7. Long Shawl Cardigan – A long cozy cardigan + leggings + boots = a fool-proof outfit!

8. Hunter Tall Boots – If you live anywhere where you get a lot of rain or snow, a good pair of rain boots are a must! If you have wider calves like I do, be sure to check out the adjustable calf pair.

9. Chambray Button Down Top – You really can’t go wrong with a classic button down top, and I love the look of a chambray blouse versus the expected plaid (although I do love me some flannels!)

10. Pom Pom Beanie – The perfect way to finish off any winter look!

Plaid Blanket Vest & The Weekly Style Edit Link Up

How not fun was it to get back into your regular routine after the holidays this week? Or was it just hard for me? I felt like there was so much to catch up on, and not enough time! With that said, I’m definitely welcoming the weekend with open arms. As much as I’m sad to say goodbye to the holidays, a big part of me is looking forward to starting a fresh year. Earlier this week I shared my top posts from 2016 and I had a lot of fun looking back at some of my outfits from the past year. As I mentioned in that post, one of the highlights of 2016 for me was starting The Weekly Style Edit link up with Megan from The Fashionista Momma. It’s so much fun collaborating with another blogger who I can relate to, and I think I can speak for us both when I say we love seeing all of the fun outfits and posts that you share with us each week. This week we are back at it, and can I just say that I am totally in love with this plaid blanket vest from Evy’s Tree. It’s on sale right now for $59 and is so cozy. Also, can we talk about this fabulous Sole Society bag? My husband got it for me for Christmas and I haven’t used anything else since! Be prepared to see it on here a ton in the future… it is that perfect guys! Also, for more fashion inspiration be sure to check out the link up below and share your favorite outfits from the week with us.

Sequin Pants & The Weekly Style Edit Link Up

sequin leggings Happy Friday! I hope you had a fabulous Christmas, and that the holidays are treating you well! I feel like I’ve been saying this for weeks, but can you believe that in just a few days it will be a new year? 2016 definitely had its shares of ups and downs for me, but is ending on a really positive note and has me looking forward to what 2017 will bring. Last week for The Weekly Style Edit link up, Megan  and I both shared holiday inspired looks, and today I wanted to share another look that would be perfect for New Year’s Eve. Although I am pretty much planning on ringing in the new year from the comfort of my own home, it’s always fun to put a dressy outfit together! I have a feeling that I’ll be wearing this for our first date night in 2017.
This outfit is actually really easy to throw on and is totally #momlife approved ladies. I mean, it’s basically an elevated version of leggings and an oversized sweater. Speaking of this sweater, I never thought I could pull off the cowl neck look, but considering how comfortable this one is, I’m not really sure I care if I pull it off or not (ha!). I’ve not only worn it with sequin leggings, but also with my favorite pair of dark denim and boots. The best part is it’s only $21 and I’ve linked it below.

What are you planning on wearing for NYE? Do you have any special plans?

Lace Bell Sleeves for The Holidays

lace top holidays  Tomorrow is Christmas Eve and I can’t even believe it! I am so looking forward to spending time with family all weekend and sharing my absolute favorite holiday with Harper. Holidays are getting to be a lot more fun as she gets older, and I can’t even wait to experience Christmas with her this year! Last year she was only 7 months old, so I know that this year will be a completely different experience. Since I have a toddler running around now, I definitely always plan my outfits accordingly. I recently shared a casual holiday look for The Weekly Style Edit link up, and today Megan from The Fashionista Momma and I are back with more holiday inspiration for you!
Today I am sharing a holiday outfit that I am actually planning on wearing again on Christmas Eve. I recently picked up this gorgeous lace bell sleeve top from Pink Blush as it felt like the perfect Christmas blouse. I’m no stranger to Pink Blush and have shared quite a few looks with them over the years, including a floral print maxi wrap dress last spring. They always have the perfect pieces for any occasion! I’ll be back soon with another Pink Blush look, and will also be giving away $75 to their shop. In the meantime, come link up your favorite fashion posts with Megan and I for The Weekly Style Edit link up below!
