Vivid Summer Fashion








Surprise suprise!!! I'm back with another off the shoulder dress today! Okay - don't judge me. I totally needed this one. It's striped AND embroidered. So totally different from the other 5 I own. Hah!

But in all seriousness I LOVEE this dress. It is SO perfect for summer and it's super light weight to keep you nice and cool. I will warn all you tall ladies out there that it's a little short. But if you wear it down farther on your shoulders its fine! Chicwish always has the cutest clothing and this piece is no exception.

And can we just take a moment for these earrings. Like, wow these are so fun. And shockingly not that heavy which is a huge plus! I plan on wearing these all summer long. You can snag them over at Sin Solo!

Custom Fashion - Little Red Dres








You know when you see a dress (or a top, romper, etc...you get the picture) that you absolutely LOVE.....and then you see the price tag and your fashion dreams are crushed. It's the absolute WORST! But I'm here with a solution for y'all. You can DIY almost anything with a sewing machine and some fabric - but if you're DIY challenged like myself, find someone who isn't. And lucky for you, I found that person!

I hereby introduce you to the fabulous Tabitha Sewer. Y'all - this girl is Beyonce with a sewing machine. And if you don't believe me, you can just check out her Instagram feed! Plus she does incredibly tutorials on her YouTube for those of you brave souls who want to try your own hand! I found this dress online and fell in love, but I certainly wasn't planning on spending $81 on it. So my girl Tabitha hooked me up! She's seriously the best. So if you're ever looking for a specific piece that won't absolutely shatter your budget - make sure you check her out to see if she has a tutorial or shoot her a message and see if she can DIY it for you! Plus - custom fashion is the best fashion, am I right?

Best news? I'm GIVING AWAY a custom piece from Tabitha! Head to my Instagram to enter!

Fiesta Dress












Back at it today with another off the shoulder (OTS) dress! Pretty sure half of my closet now consists of OTS dresses and tops. I'm praying this trend never goes out of style because I'm in love with it. Its flattering on everyone and is so versatile - dressy, casual, you name it...there's an OTS outfit for that.

This dress is a new favorite. I'm a sucker for embroidery and this dress has it all! The perfect chambray color (neutral enough to wear with anything) and the prettiest floral detailing. And we can't forget the cute little sleeves! I love a good ruffle. This one is from my friends over at Chicwish and you can grab this dress here! I added some of my go-to accessories. Everyone needs a good floppy hat. If you don't have one yet, go get one! You won't regret it. And of course I can't go anywhere without my purse. So when I was styling this look - I reached for my all time favorite, a simple brown cross body! Goes with any outfit, is easy to wear and has enough storage to hold the essentials. Shop this look below!

Country Living










Goin' country today. JK - I'm always a little bit country. You're not a southern girl if you don't own a few pairs of cowboy boots right?

Gingham is having it's moment this season and I couldn't be happier about it. I snagged this little off the shoulder number from Chicwish and loveee it. It will be perfect for summer. It also comes with a tie, but I prefer to wear it without!

And of course no outfit is complete without accessories. This wood watch from JORD is perfect to dress up or down. I love the navy face because while it's a neutral, it's also still an eye catching color. This particular style is made from Zebrawood (it's the Frankie) and it's a unique way to add a little something extra to every outfit! And I'm GIVING ONE AWAY to one lucky follower! So enter here for a chance to win! In the meantime, head over to their site to take a look at all their styles! Good luck!

Happy Monday!








Hey friends! Why is it that the weekend always goes by so fast? I'm convinced that whoever decided the work week was going to be 5 out of the 7 days was crazy. I vote we change it to 4. But alas, I digress. I'm here to tell you about two amazing things your closet needs!

Everyone needs a comfy pair of go-to flats. Something that goes with everything and are easy to throw on and go. I wore my last pair of flats for 3 summers straight and finally wore the soles out. Needless to say, it was high time to get a new pair. So after some searching - I found my new best friends! This pair of gladiators from Hush Puppies are soooo comfy. The soles are made of memory foam which feel like you're walking on pillows and they have a handy little zipper in the back for easy on and offs. And I've always had a weak spot for the gladiator style - it's one of those timeless trends that you can wear with anything. Literally. No matter the outfit, I can grab these and know they'll look perfect.

Okay, enough shoe raving. I also wanted to tell y'all about one of my new favorite companies. Y'all know I love when I can find a product that gives back. The Starfish Project is an organization that supports women escaping human trafficking and exploitation in Asia. They provide holistic care by supplying vocational training, healthcare, shelter, counseling and education grants. Some of the women they support create incredible jewelry - like the choker I'm wearing in these photos. And each purchase goes to support their work in Asia. My necklace is equal to the cost of 2 weeks of counseling. So shop without guilt, because you know you're supporting an incredible cause.

Custom Fashion







Finding the perfect piece to add to your wardrobe can be tough. If you're a giant like me - things are always too short. Or maybe it's too long, or too narrow, or not fitted in the waist. There's always something am I right!? Well ladies, I found the solution! eShatki is a fashion forward, custom clothing company that takes every style and tailors it to fit you perfectly! You can choose the hem length, sleeve type, neckline - you name it! You can customize every piece to fit your style and your body. I snagged this gorgeous off-the-shoulder dress! I customized my hem into a midi and sent in all my measurements so it fits like a glove.

Let me tell you, once you go custom - you'll never go back. Pretty sure I want to order everything from their site. Not kidding. I'm gonna have to limit myself! Check them out here and start your own custom order!

Blushing OTS








Y'all saw this already on Instagram a while ago because I couldn't contain my excitement. My all-time favorite top is finally available in blush!!! I have this in black and I wear it non-stop. Like, seriously - ALL THE TIME. It's one of the only off-the-shoulder tops that I own that actually stays on your shoulders, it doesn't pop up when you move your arms and the elastic is really comfortable to wear for a full day. The ruffles are universally flattering and I can wear it with jeans in the spring/fall and shorts in the summer. This top is so versatile and I promise you that it will be one of your favorite purchases! Snag it over at Chicwish while you can!
