    Tulle Skirt 3 Ways for Fall

    I was pondering what my goals in blogging were apart from the selfish reasons of having a hobby and having fun with fashion, and one of my goals is to inspire everyone to be more creative with what they have in their closet. That is one reason why I enjoy writing these posts where I share one piece in my closet several ways. In this case it’s a tulle skirt, but you could really apply these ideas to any solid skirt in your closet very easily. If you are looking for more tulle skirt inspiration these are a few posts where I styled this skirt: with stripes with a white…

    A couple months ago, Jodie shared a fun dress on Facebook and IG that had many styling possibilities. I don’t often buy exact things that I see others wear, but it does occasionally happen.

    Another Whimsical Outfit with my Tulle Overlay Dress

    When my son and I took these pictures, he mentioned that I looked like the character Lucy Gray from the movie The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. And I have to agree with him: it does make me think of her! I do love how this outfit came together and will be wearing it out and about for a date night! I have worn this tulle overlay several times now and will share some pictures at the end of the post to give you some inspiration. I wanted to wear pants under the tulle instead of a skirt like I had done in the past and I did have to…

    Linen Skirt for Fall 3 Ways

    I came across this linen skirt at Cato’s Fashion this summer and tried it in store, but the size medium was too large. However, I liked the possibilities of the skirt so much that I decided to order it online in XS and have it shipped to the store to save shipping fee. I had no idea that it would take a month for me to receive it as the company was changing both carriers and warehouses. I am glad though that I did not cancel the order because I think there are unlimited ways to style this skirt. With a peasant blouse I could have worn this skirt with…

    Ready for Spring, but Wear it Now

    Welcome to the Sunday Showcase! I love a piece that can be worn year round: the Denise top is a gorgeous top from Avara that I received when I became an ambassador for the brand last month. I was drawn to it because of the royal blue, the pretty sleeves and how I thought it would fit my style with a little boho vibe with the collar. I have recently learned how important it is to read the sizing for a piece: I could tell from the pictures of the blouse, that it would be boxy and a little cropped to I decided to size down to an XS. The…

    3 Ways to wear Leggings

    Wearing leggings as part of an outfit does not mean that you have to look like a slob: you can look put together weather you are wearing them casually with a sweatshirt and sneakers or they can be part of a really cute outfit. Think about outfits where you would be wearing black jeans. I just make sure that my bum is covered to keep the look put together and modest. Casual Look This is probably the most dressed down you will see me in leggings: I combine them with a cozy but nice sweatshirt and try to choose a pair of cute sneakers. With my utilitarian hiking shoes, I…

    Neon Pink Sweater 3 Ways

    I have just had a ball finding fun sweaters this winter! The week before Christmas, I stopped by Target on their 30% off day and bought this beauty for $15. Yes, I had planned to not shop for a whole month, but with all stressful things happening at the house with elderly ill parents, I am giving myself grace. I wore the first outfit the day after I bought the sweater. I probably have worn the sweater 3 to 4 times since I bought it. Pink and Olive I have always enjoyed wearing the color olive because it really pairs well with everything. I love it with stripes especially, but…

    Clara SunWoo Ankle Petal Pants 4 Ways

    I am back with a 4 ways how to style blog post. I love getting more wear from the items in my closet especially if they are investment pieces. While these were gifted, I still like to make sure that an item I chose for a collaboration is something that I will wear in my everyday life. These pants are way more versatile than you might expect from their fun print. They are really comfortable with an elastic waistband and of course, the fabric used is fluid and wrinkle free. For pairing with colorful prints, my favorite graphics are my white ones. I enjoy wearing yellow with navy, so this…
