I always like to dress up a little for Mother’s Day and when I was thinking about what I would wear, this dress came to mind. I had not worn it yet at the time of these pictures, but paired with my little jacket, it would work for church. We moved in my parents with us a few weeks ago and are adjusting to our new routine and family dynamics. We created a haven on our 3rd floor for ourselves to have a space to chill and hang out when we want time apart. A movie room with a big screen and comfy couches and a new space for our…

Since I only have one child in primary/elementary school, there are not too many more opportunities to go accompany one of my children on a Fieldtrip. Most of the fieldtrips are to the same places every year, so I pick and choose which to go to. Going to the strawberry farm to pick strawberries is my type of fun, so that was the occasion for this outfit. I usually try to wear something in the school’s colors on field trip or sports events. Our school colors are purple and gold. While I sometimes wear school sponsored clothes, I would rather wear something a little more interesting and fun from my…

This is not the first time I have shared outfits with wide leg pants. Wide leg pants are one of my favorite ways to wear pants when it is too warm to wear jeans and I have curated a nice collection of them over the past few years. I did add 2 pairs last year when I was visiting Just Be Youtiful boutique in Arizona and I have reached for those probably the most. But I still love my other pairs too. Today, I am sharing some combinations I wore the past couple of months. Wow! This was a day where getting dressed brought me joy and I was glad…

Every year, when I start switching out my wardrobe for spring and summer, I greet my summer skirts like long lost friends. Some do hang in my closet all year, however I like to put some away because they feel like new when I pull them out. And each year, I find new ways to wear them. Of course most of these get worn with tank tops a lot during the summer and I do repeat some outfits. But I am always surprised when I put together a new combination! Maxi in Purple One example is this outfit: have I never paired these 2 together? I don’t think so, but…

There is a little place in town that holds different booths that each person rent: you can find furniture, boutique items, second hand items and some antiques. I like to visit it about once a month, sometimes in search of something in particular like a lamp and other times just for fun. I decided to stop by in March for a quick see even though I wasn’t planning to spend on clothes and came home with this dress and a belt buckle (for a total of $13). This was the perfect denim dress and here is why it is the perfect dress. The length is perfect: it can be worn…

Everyone has a denim jacket, but nowadays, you can find denim jackets in a variety of silhouettes just as you can find different styles and cuts of denim jeans. Today, I am styling four different jackets from my closet, but I am still on the lookout for a short sleeve denim jacket (I may cut the sleeves of a thrifted long sleeve one if I find a cut I like). Three out of 4 of these were thrifted and my oldest is the non-thrifted classic one from Target. Jodie is also sharing some denim jackets with different silhouettes and I cannot wait to see how she styled them. Here is…

When I searched for this year’s spring trends, I was surprised to see black leggings capris as one of them, but after seeing an inspiration picture, I quickly came up with an outfit I could wear and share by combining some pieces in my closet that I had never put together in one outfit. I have had a pair of black leggings capris for years, wearing them mostly as a layering piece under tunics and short dresses in the past. This pair is fairly old, I am not sure how old it is, I would guess about 10 years, and if I remember correctly I bought it at Walmart for…
