Fancy Valentine









The balloons are back! Hah! What's a Valentine's shoot without heart balloons anyway? But the big day is just around the corner and I'm bringing you another dress from Chicwish that is perfect for the holiday! This dress is quite a bit dressier then the last one I shared - so if you've got big plans with you sweetie (or besties), this dress has got you covered! It's off-the-shoulder which will keep you right on trend and the floral detailing is gorgeous! Only downside to this dress is that it does come with padding in the chest - but I think it would be fairly easy to cut out if you don't want it! 

This dress is elegant all on it's own, so you don't need a ton of jewelry. Just add some statement earrings and that is all it takes!

Spring Inspiration









Spring is SO close! I can feel it. Granted....it never really felt like winter here, so it's sort of been spring for a while in Arkansas. Hah! But regardless...I digress. I have been so ready to bust out all my floral dresses, sandals and skirts (although....may need to get some self-tanner first...) for the new season. I'm a sucker for a good floral print - and this one is no exception! This dress from Chicwish is actually an off-the-shoulder dress (bonus), but it just so happens to pair with a jean jacket perfectly and I couldn't resist! I also had to pull out my hot pink tassel earrings, because they have always been my go-to spring accessory.

Velvet Love











Velvet has been a huge trend all year long, but it's taken me a while to find the perfect velvet number. But I'm happy to say that the wait is now over friends. I introduce to you, the navy velvet wrap dress from She Inside She Inside that stole my heart. This dress is super flattering on every figure and the wrap part makes it adjustable so you're sure to get the perfect fit! It is a tinsy bit low cut, but this would look great with a black lace camisole underneath as well!

To continue with the dark color scheme, I added a dark plum lip - my favorite is the shade "backstage" from Revlon! And as always, you can never go wrong with lots and lots of jewelry.

Valentine's Day Frill Dress










Valentine's Day is almost here - crazy how quickly January went by, right? And although I'm still super single, I love getting together with my besties for a "Gal-entines" celebration!

No matter what your plans are for the big day, this ruffle dress from Chicwish is the perfect fit. You'll be the center of attention in this bright, cherry red - and paired with some blush jewelry, you'll be right on trend. I love mixing pink and red (not only on Valentine's day either). It's the perfect juxtaposition and a little unexpected, but it always makes a statement! I love styling them together. And of course, is it even Valentine's if you don't wear a red lip? I think not. I used my go-to shade (that stays on all day) "Fashionista" from Revlon!
