Hey y’all! Dressing well has many components such as complimenting colors, situational appropriateness, and – the one I want to help us accomplish today- tailored clothing. One of my staples for fall is skinny jeans with a tunic top, but the look can be hard to accomplish if you’re at all curvy and/or short and jeans…
Y’all… I’m engaged! There is a super sparkly yellow gold ring on my left hand. Every time I see it, feel it, remember it– I think about my tall handsome man who loves me and has asked me to spend my life with him. If sap is not your thing, I suggest you forego reading…
Hey y’all! It’s been way too long since I’ve taken “real” outfit photos (and my iPhone remote broke, so that’s made even quick image grabs more complicated) and Ashley’s Autumn Trends Blog Event seemed the perfect excuse to get back in the habit! It is such a gorgeous day, so we spent a few extra…
Hey y’all! How are you? It’s been another long week of skirt hemming and documentary watching here. One documentary in particular, “The True Cost“, really opened my eyes to an area of our world that I must do my part to change. I’m hoping to flesh out my thoughts for a post on it soon,…
Hey y’all! I hope your week has been as productive as mine! I’ve finally started shipping some sizes of Fresh Apparel skirts, which is super exciting and a relief! I’m not sure why, but sewing is one of those activities that I infinitely prefer to do in pants. I think it’s because I do a…
Hey y’all! I just wanted to share the outfit that I’m wearing on this warm, sunny, gorgeous February Saturday afternoon. Is it a fabulous example of high-fashion, class, and/or thought-out mixing/matching? Nope, quite the opposite. You may have noticed that I’ve been doing fewer and fewer “outfit” posts lately. Why? Because in the midst of…
Hey y’all! With the crazy leggings-are-pants trend, handily, has come a smorgasbord of cute, long shirts that help make jeans modest. I love to wear these on chilly but-need-to-get-stuff-done days. This tunic has so many details I love: Arms-length, flattering silhouette, sparkle threads, warmth, super soft, high neckline, and fitted shoulders. // tip of the…
Hey y’all! Three awesome companies are behind today’s outfit, so I’m excited to finally be sharing this. And by finally, I mean this post has been 3 days in production. This is not uncommon and today I’m finding it especially humorous how long it takes to do such a simple task among a life with…
Hey y’all! It’s finally time for Awk+Awe!! These posts are a lot of fun to write (although it takes me a while to try to remember my week!) and I love the chance to share the not-so-glamorous side of my life, as well as the blessings I’m thankful for. Alright, let’s get started! Awkward: Using…
Hey y’all! When I announced the Concealed Carry Series back at the beginning of September, I really didn’t know how y’all would respond since I’d never mentioned firearms on the blog here before. I was pleasantly surprised by your excited responses! Today I’m sharing an outfit I wore this past Friday to pick my dad…
Hey y’all! One of the “problems” that always seems to be brought up in discussions on modesty is that it’s difficult to work outside and do hard tasks in feminine clothing. That’s exactly the myth this series will be trying to dispel. Today I woke up feeling like I am getting “the cold”. Since I…
