Workwear: Pink Pocket Skirt





Hello Hello!! How was your weekend? We had our family reunion, so tons of family time for me this weekend. During the Memorial Weekend sales, I hit up Loft for some new work clothes. I wanted a few lightweight pieces that could work in a variety of outfits for the office.
This pink pocket skirt was an instant eye catcher in the store. The color is so perfect for both spring and summer, and the pockets are the perfect added touch. Pink can be such a versatile color. It works well with neutrals like black, white, and ivory, but it also mixes well with other colors like yellow, blues, and red. I paired this skirt with a navy striped top and denim jacket last week for work.
This sleeveless tie neck top is so perfect for both the office and weekends. It’s a black and white design, but looks gray from a distant. I have paired it with jeans and gray slacks. You can also leave the tie neck portion open for a cute v-neck look.
I personally love these two pieces paired together for a chic and effortless work look. Gray and pink is always a favorite color combo of mine.
I hope ya’ll have a great week ahead and thanks for stopping by!

So I Bought a Bodysuit…





Happy Friday!!! Maybe it’s just me, but I feel like bodysuits have been growing in popularity lately. I was a little unsure of them at first, but I finally decided I had to try one out. I ordered 3 different ones and trying them on made me feel a little like Goldilocks. One was too long, one was a bit too tight, but the third was absolute perfection. I figured I’d run through a few of my and my friends questions and concerns over bodysuits, in case you have any of the same ones.
Let’s start with the main one, how do you go to the bathroom in this thing? I feel like everyone who has ever headed out in a romper has had that moment when you suddenly realize that you have to take the whole thing off when it’s time to go the bathroom. Super glamorous, especially if this is taking place in a not so clean bathroom (think bars, concert port-o-potties). Needless to say, it causes me to make sure I really love a romper before purchasing. Here’s the great thing about bodysuits, someone thought to put snaps on the bottom! Think a baby’s onesie. No getting naked in the bathroom, just a few easy snaps.
Second, are they comfortable? The fit is just like a one piece swimsuit. I find mine comfortable. Just like with a swimsuit, you will probably have to try a few to find ones that fit your body type and that you feel comfortable in. I’m petite, so for me it’s finding one that is not too long. The bottom portion comes in either thong fit or full bottom, so it’s a pick your preference kind of thing.
What’s my favorite thing about them? I love that I don’t have to worry about my shirt coming untucked. This is one of those little annoyances of mine. A bodysuit will stay in place as you move or dance around.
What do you wear it with? Everything! Jeans, skirts, shorts. I can’t wait to wear this one with one of my pleated midi skirts soon.
Hopefully, my little bodysuit review was helpful if you have been considering one. In this one, I am wearing a US6. Let me know if you have any other questions, and I will be sure to answer them.
For today’s post, I styled my bodysuit for an upcoming girls’ night out. Dark wash skinny jeans, bright pink statement earrings, and floral statement heels come together to create the perfect show stopping outfit for a night out on the town. I hope you all have a fabulous weekend, and thank you so much for stopping by!

Dressy Casual Summer Outfit





Hello!! Did you catch my post over the weekend? I rounded up some of the best summer wedges. If you missed it, you can check it out here. I had a fun weekend filled with relaxing on Saturday and hanging out with friends on Sunday.
We are definitely moving into the heart of summer and that summer heat. When planning outfits, I always try to take the heat into consideration. I love this lightweight striped tank for those hot days. It’s a stretchy, breathable material. It comes in a few other prints and colors, but I’m a sucker for the stripes, especially to pair with white jeans.
Remember those floral shoes I mentioned picking up during the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale, well here they are!! (And Currently marked down even more!) I’m so in love with subtle feminine floral print, the delicate strap and knot design, and the mule style. These heels have a slightly lower heel than I normally wear, but I love this for outdoor summer parties. The stripes and floral pair perfectly together to create the perfect dressy casual summer outfit to survive an outdoor party.
Thanks for stopping by and reading!

Currently Craving: Summer Wedges

Happy Weekend!! It’s been a hot minute since I shared a shop guide, so I’m bringing them back and starting with the crowd favorite – Wedge Sandals!! I found summer wedges in a variety of colors, styles, and price points for you guys. Ya’ll know I love a good nuetral wedge, but I’m also a fan of a good black wedge too. I think these two colors are great if you are looking for a pair that can be worn a variety of ways all season long. I also included a red and pink pair, because I think these are two fun colors to enhance any summer outfit. Many of these shoes come in multiple colors. If you love the style but not the color, click through to see the other color options.
Also, I just want to mention that today is the last day of the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale. I love to use this sale to stock up on basics like loungewear, workout gear, jeans, and always shoes. Ya’ll have a great rest of your weekend!
