White Sundress, 5 Ways
I am enjoying this series this summer and I am sharing yet again a dress, this time, my Target sundress which I cannot find online anymore. As I am trying to rein in my spending these last 2 months of summer, I am working on creating different outfits with some of my favorite pieces. With a graphic tee and white sneakers This look was shared on the 4th for Ada and I’s Sunday Showcase and I also wore it on the actual 4th for church. I love how comfortable and summery this outfit is! With leopard tee and brown sandals This is a very similar outfit as above. Since I…

Fab 40s: Inspired by Air
This month, the Fab 40s are sharing outfits inspired by air. I knew right away what I wanted to wear so I convinced my son to take pictures for me the same week I became part of the group. I also knew where I wanted to take my pictures, so on a Saturday morning at 9 am before it got too hot, we headed to the Indian Mounds to take my pictures. I borrowed my friend’s pants for the week as she was going out of town because their shape make me think of floating in air. I actually am on a mission to find a pair (these are Bcik…

Inspired by Nancy’s Fashion Style: All Black Outfit
I do not wear monochromatic outfits enough and I often forget about neutrals in the summer. So after seeing this outfit of Nancy from Nancy’s Fashion Style, I decided it was time to write an Inspired by post. Nancy has a great fashion style and wears quite a few dresses and skirts. I wore this most of a day, for errands and doing things around the house. By afternoon, I did change as I knew I wanted to clean my very disgusting car and I would workout soon after. While Nancy accessorized with pink, I accessorized with yellow as I wanted to chose a pair of sandals similar in style…

Arizona Travel Outfits
I will be sharing some beautiful pictures from the scenery we came across in Scottsdale, AZ in my Wednesdays posts (I love cacti!) but for today, I wanted to share my daily outfits from our short weekend trip to Arizona. We went to Scottsdale to attend my brother’s wedding and to spend time with him and my new sister in law. I tried to pack ligthly but I did learn a few things from this trip as it was the first time we were visiting such a hot place. I typically wear joggers with a tee and sneakers when traveling but wanted to limit the number of shoes I brought…

Sports with the Ageless Style Link Up
This theme proposed by Jodie for Jtouchofstyle can be interpreted many ways. Since I do not typically share athletic wear on my blog, I thought this would be a fun departure from my usual style that I share with you usually. I am one of those people who just cannot spend big money on exercise clothes whose purpose it to sweat in but I will splurge on a good sports bra and a good pair of running shoes. I shared some of the things I do to try to keep in shape in this post but I also spent a couple years coaching 7 year old soccer and that is…

Camo Skinnies for a Date Night Look
I’ve been wanting to share these sand camo pants (another pair of Old Navy Pixie pants) for a little while and decided to put together another date night look. I plan to wear this one evening this month to go out with the hubby. I have worn this pair a couple of times during the day but will mostly wear them in the spring and fall I think. Too hot on most days for pants here! I paired them with this flowy high low blouse (similar) and since I am wearing my white one for the upcoming Fab 40s post, I chose my blush one. For me this is an…

Stars and Stripes: July 2021 Sunday Showcase and Link Up
Ada (Elegance and Mommyhood) and I have now collaborated for the Sunday Showcase Link Up for a year now! So I was happy with this month’s theme as I am wearing patriotic outfits but very different ones from last year’s post! Of course, my closet was full of stripes so it was a manner of choosing which striped top of bottom to wear and I did order something new for the stars (it’s always a good excuse to shop!). Stars At first glance, you may not see the stripes in this outfit especially that none of my outfit pictures are close up so scroll down to see where they appear.…

June Favorite Looks
I am glad to say that I have liked pretty much every outfit I have worn this past month. Of course, there are some that I liked more than others and those are the ones I rounded up here. Once again, there is a lot of color! I probably will be wearing more neutrals as the fall season arrives! I like these pants much better now that my mom hemmed them. With the elastic waisband, I can make them more of a cropped length or not by pulling them higher or lower on my waist. Loving my $5 Target tanks. I also pulled out my glass pendants this month after…

Fab 40s: Inspired by Fire: Red Dress 6 Ways
There is something really satisfying about knowing you have worn something many times and in different ways. A solid dress is a canvas with which you can play with accessories, layers and shoes and a dress with little extra details like this one is even more fun. This Target dress has been around for a couple of years now. At the time I wrote this post, it was only available in white and size medium and above. I did size up to a medium even though I usually size down in this brand because the bust was too tight in other sizes. The eyelet details, the ruffles, tassels and v-neck…

Blue Dress for a Civil War Fort Tour
I originally planned to take pictures of this outfit on the beach but as things usually go on a vacation, plans change and I decided this would be an outfit that would be comfortable even for a tour of a fort. You will learn more about our visit to Old Fort Jackson this Wednesday so today will focus on my outfit! I ordered this dress in two colors from Target after seeing a couple bloggers share it (Andrea from Living On Cloud Nine has it in this blue color and Carrie from A Simple Lovely Life shared it in the peach) and kept the blue as I felt the peach…
