Perfect Striped Top for Spring
Good Morning! How was your weekend? I met up with my 5 best friends for dinner and girl talk this weekend. It was so needed and so much fun! My gal pals and I all live in the Houston area, but not all close by. Some of them live a good hour drive away. We try and get together a few times a year to catch up in person. Each time it feels as if no time has passed since we last saw each other. I always think that is one of the most special kinds of friendship!
I’m so in love with this top for Spring. The beautiful pastel colors of the stripes make my heart happy. I feel like my wardrobe was very gray and black during winter, so I’m definitely embracing some color this season. I love pairing the lighter pastel colors with white jeans and a neutral shoe. I think both compliment the lighter palette well and help the color stand out. This top is meant to be oversized. I sized down to an XS to have a slightly more fitted look. The boxy design still makes it look and feel slightly oversized even with the sizing down.
I hope ya’ll have a great week, and don’t forget to share your outfit inspiration in the link up at the end of the post!

Casual Spring Style: Floral Embroidered Tee
I always love when Spring fashion starts hitting the stores, and I can start adding all the beautiful colors and floral prints into my wardrobe. I feel like I am not the only one loving the Spring fashion right now. Most of the items I’ve been purchasing lately have been selling out before I have the chance to share them on the blog. It always bums me out a little to share such a cute top when you can’t shop it yourself. Keep your eyes peeled to Instagram and Instagram stories, and I will try to share when some of these tops come back in stock! I feel like this happens every March, and the items usually get restocked quickly.
This embroidered floral top is the perfect piece for a casual Spring outfit. I love how perfectly it pairs with distressed jeans and booties. It can also be styled with shorts and sandals when the weather heats up this summer.
I really wanted to make the pinks in the embroidered floral design pop, so I paired this top with my pink ball earrings. These earrings are on major clearance right now, plus Baublebar is having a HUGE 25% off everything sale with code FF25. The sale includes many of their essential items which are usually not included in sales. It’s the perfect time to stock up on all the colorful statement jewelry! A few pieces you have seen on the blog are below:

The Most Comfortable Heels I Own
A few weeks ago, I broke a HUGE new shoe rule. I wore brand new, never worn, never broken in shoes to a wedding. I love shoes especially heels, I own lots of them, and pretty much every pair of heels I own has needed a breaking in period. Sometimes one wear, sometimes 10 wears, but at least some breaking in before you plan to wear them to an event filled with dancing, standing, and walking around.
Y’all these block heel sandals needed ZERO breaking in. These sandals were a Christmas gift, and I just never got around to breaking them in because well it was winter. I knew they would be the perfect shoe to pair with my long black dress for a wedding, so I decided to risk it and wear them straight out of the box.
I spent cocktail hour standing and sipping champagne and followed it up with hours on the dance floor, all in no pain! At the end of the night, I saw so many women kicking off their heels to keep dancing, and I realized my feet didn’t hurt at all. It was at that moment, these block heel sandals made their way to the top of my list of most comfortable heels in my closet. I’m currently waiting for the taupe version to come back in stock in my size because that color will be perfect for spring and summer!
One thing I love about block heel sandals is how they can work with both formal, dressy outfits and super casual outfits. They remind me of a dressier option to a wedge sandal. I could not resist styling them in this super casual tee and jeans outfit for today. I love the pairing of the tomboy tee and the girly heels. Also you guys, this tee is sooooo soft!!! It will get lots of wears this summer for sure.

Big Sleeves & Blush Pink
Blush pink and gray ranks high on my list of perfect Spring color combos. The two colors compliment each other so well. This blush pink top would look gorgeous with white or blue jeans, but I love the contrast with the gray.
The feminine touches on this top make it so gorgeous and stand out. I love the big 3/4 length sleeve to help create effortless movement. The stripe illusion design on the sleeve is just another beautiful detail on this top to help it stand out a bit from the rest of the blush pink pack.
I kept the rest of my outfit pretty neutral with these cute white earrings and a rose gold necklace. I like that they compliment the top and do not overly distract from it. The top is semi-sheer, and a camisole is needed underneath it.
I hope you guys have a fun weekend ahead! Today is Go Texan Day in Houston, so lots of cowboys boots, denim, and horses on the freeways. It’s the kickoff day to our rodeo which lasts for the next few weeks. I’ve talked about it in past posts with outfit inspiration here. It’s always a fun time in Houston.
Thanks for stopping by you guys! I always appreciate the visit and your sweet comments!!
