Today, I wanted to share the shoes I reach for the most in the springtime. One of these is new while the others are a year old or so. I do not wear my sandals much until I get my nails painted sometime usually in April but with things the way they are now, I probably buy a bottle of nail polish (can you believe I don’t have any?) next week, and see how good of a job I can do on my own. Burgundy Shoreline Converse My favorite type of Converse is the Shoreline because I like not having to tie a shoe lace. Having a short shoe lace…

How do you transition your wardrobe to spring when it is still cool outside but you are tired of your winter clothes. There are several ways to do this without freezing your little tushy off. Colors! Choose your white jeans instead of your black or blue ones. Use brighter colors in your sweaters or blouses. Patterns and textures Bring out some of your florals you haven’t worn this winter and layer under or over. Choose lighter fabrics and layer them. Spring like toppers Shoes and accessories Put away your boots and bring out your open toe booties. Pull out your fashion sneakers such as your converse or your fun white…

One of the purposes of my blog is to show you that fashion can be fun and affordable and that you do not need an overflowing closet to dress in a cute and relevant manner. This year, I am trying to buy with a purpose and to think through my purchases. One of the things I wanted to add to my closet was one or 2 kimonos and I found one half off on Amazon last month in a burgundy color. I probably will look for a teal one at some point in April but I wanted to show how just one kimono and one pair of pants can create…

While this jacket is faux leather, it is well made and I do not feel the need to add a real leather jacket to my closet. I have another faux leather jacket in the blush family which is more of a moto jacket. I did use to have a nice brown real leather jacket that was lined but after many years, I finally donated it. It was getting too tight for me. I really love having a colored “leather” jacket because it adds interest to any outfit. Even better, this is the jacket my sister in law gave me so I didn’t have to spend  a dime on it. The…

Last week, my husband’s uncle took us out to the Westin Sundial restaurant in downtown Atlanta. I will spend a little time sharing about our experience there in Wedsnesday’s post but today, I wanted to share about my outfit. The pictures were mostly taken at my house so the background is not very pretty but I wanted to share how you can shop your closet to create a fun date night look. I actually have not been doing so well with trying to be careful with my spending lately. While I am sticking to my list (I wanted to add skirts to my closet and that is what I purchased…

Now that my closet has been rid of any items that don’t fit, annoy me or that I just didn’t like, I need to make sure to wear what I have before I decide to buy anything in one of the categories. Before buying new skirts, I need to wear the ones I have first. The following striped skirt was thrifted several years ago and while I do not wear it very often, it has made it through several closet decluttering sessions. Since it is still here to stay, then I should wear it! I decided to create 3 different looks with it that I could wear in fall/winter since…

You always hear bloggers share that we should wear our white denim in winter. I love wearing wearing my white jeans in winter with either neutrals or my winter sweaters. But what about your white denim jacket? Should it only come out in Spring and Summer? Last Sunday, as I looked through my closet choosing my church outfit, I came accross this dress. I hadn’t worn it in a couple of years but was not about to donate it because I think the cut is flattering and the colors and patterns are versatile and interesting. But what to wear as a topper? Even in Georgia, winter gets cold sometimes! Even…
