Styling Denim for Summer with the Ageless Style Link Up
Today’s outfit started with this cute pair of earrings which I received as part of a giveaway hosted by Scrub Studio Soaps and SG Sparkles. The set of honeycomb and bee mismatched earrings is so fun and made me think of my French striped top right away. I then thought of my denim skirt which fit perfectly for the today’s theme for the Ageless style link up so here is my denim for summer look! Since I do not wear jeans in the summer (it is too hot and humid for denim pants), I either wear my denim shorts or my denim skirts in the warm months. This denim skirt…

One and Done with the Ageless Link Up
Joanne suggested the theme one and done for July: this could be a dress, a jumpsuit or a romper. Since I had not shared this cute little thrifted mini dress yet, I thought this month’s link-up would be the perfect opportunity. I found this dress on a thrifting trip with my friend in Chattanooga. They actually had it in her size too, but she chose not to buy it. Since the length is really short, I added a pair of thin white biker shorts to make it more modest. The advantage to a one and done piece of clothing is that you do not have to worry about adding a…

Inspired by a Movie Character with the Ageless Style Link Up
When Bo chose this theme, I searched the internet for different ideas. At first, I thought of coastal chic and Diane Keaton but then I came across this picture of Jennifer Grey in Dirty Dancing and decided it would be an easy outfit to replicate from my closet. This outfit uses basics most of us have in our closets, white sneakers, belt, denim shorts and tank tops so anyone can create it. Of course, short length might change as well as the style of tank top. I knew I could take the pictures on a nearby bridge, so as soon as I got back from vacation, we went out to…

Floral Dresses with the Ageless Style Link Up
It has been a lot of fun wearing all of my thrifted dress the past few months. Dresses are great as a standalone and on cooler days, and look cute with denim jackets or blazers. I really scored at the end of winter with my dress search. Finding dresses on Amazon has never worked for me (and I really try not to buy clothes from them as who knows where returns go), and what is in store is often not my style or not in my price range. When looking for a dress, the fit is what does it for me: I will not wear an empire waist dress, so…

Styling a White Top with the Ageless Style Link Up
I actually styled this same shirt last year for the Ageless Style Link Up (where we share that style is ageless!) in an all white look in this post! It is actually one of my favorite photo shoots with that fun umbrella. I also wore it for a summer post with a camo mini skirt and a borrowed pair of pants here. It was an Amazon find a few years ago and I love how airy it is and how easy it is to style. I also have it in light pink and have worn it for the blog too. Since this Billabong skirt has a very high slit, I…

Scarves: Inspiration for Winter to Spring
Jodie (from jtouchofstyle) reached out to me a couple of weeks ago suggesting a joint scarf challenge. Since I am always up for a clothes challenge, I readily agreed! Then it was time to get creative with scarves as I knew she would have all kinds of fun ways to wear her scarves and I didn’t want to just wear my scarves in the most obvious manner. Of course, you cannot always come up with something new and sometimes simplicity is just what you need as the first two outfit prove. Here is Jodie’s week recap: head to there to get some more inspiration! Since our weather can change 30…

Dots and Spots with the Ageless Style Link Up
Welcome back to the Ageless Style Link Up! This month, it was my turn to choose the theme and since not everyone is having spring like weather like we have had in Georgia, I decided to choose a theme that would work for everyone. Spots (cheetah, leopard..) and dots fit the bill. I decided to share once again the thrifted polka dot blazer Jodie found for me a few months back because it is so soft and comfortable. I really like the length of the sleeves since I tend to fold up jacket sleeves unless I am cold. I have found I like fitted blazers the best so this one…

Kindness with the Ageless Style Link Up
I always enjoy seeing what theme my Ageless Style friends and I are going to share with you! This month’s theme was kindness and what better way to style it than to choose my Be Kind sweatshirt! I shopped my closet and took advantage of our vacation in North Carolina this past weekend to take some pictures. I wore sweatshirts every day and have curated a comfy, but stylish collection over the years. This particular one is several years old and an Amazon find. I often wear it when running, but occasional wear it for a casual outfit. I don’t like feeling sloppy or frumpy so I chose to pair…

Scrumptious Fabrics with the Ageless Style Link Up
The theme for this month was scrumptious fabrics… and this little shrug from Ross Dress for Less is just that! My boys love how soft it is, and I have worn it a couple of times this winter since I picked it up in December. As soon as I saw it on the rack, I knew it would be the perfect addition for my Goddaughter’s wedding next month. It provides both warmth and modesty for her church wedding especially that I plan to wear those sandals! I am happy that the dress’ sleeves are 3/4 length so they do not extend past the shrug’s sleeves. The puffed sleeves add a…

Styling Skinny Jeans with the Ageless Style Link Up
Jodie chose the prompt skinny jeans this month! While I now wearing a much wider variety of jean styles than I used to, I still really enjoy styling my skinny jeans. I like them with knee high boots and to show off shoes as I did in today’s outfit! I can see this look for a semi casual holiday gathering where you will be indoors. I am starting this post with the shoe because I really love this picture and these pretty heels from Target have a sentimental value for me since I wore them at my brother’s wedding and I felt really special in them. I do not wear…
