Navy Loves Pink






coat (J.Crew, love this PINK BOYFRIEND VERSION), sweater (GAP size up a size), gingham (Target Men's), denim (PAIGE ON SALE ADDT'l 50% OFF WITH CHIC50), heels (KATE SPADE ON SALE), bag (GiGi New York), shades (Gucci)

Working on this post while enduring a very long layover in Miami.  But totally worth it as I'm en route to see my guy in South America to celebrate New Year's.  Got a long flight ahead of me but fingers crossed I get a little shut eye.  
Onto the rig--Navy and Pink.  One of the better color combos if I do say so myself.  While this Peacoat is no longer avail in this color, I'm loving this Boyfriend Version in a similar hue...price is pretty right, too!  Speaking of right price, my new fave Paige's are on major sale along with a slew of other goodies at Piperlime (see NYESlip Ons, & Gems)--def give it a go, at 50% off sale, kinda can't beat it.  Alright gang, I'm going to go snag some goodies before my flight boards(read:  junk food and mags) for my flight--you all have a relaxing eve and make it a good one!  I'll do my best to share some of my travels via Insta--but I may go a little off the grid!

Sparkle Season













look 1:  leggings (Asos Sold Out, see similar HERE HERE HERE), blouse (J.Crew), clutch (Clare Vivier), watch (Daniel Wellington c/o), ring (Anna Beck), shades (Gucci), sneaks (Converse)
look 2:  skirt (Malene Birger, Shop BURU), chambray (JCrew), heels (Zara, love THESE), clutch (Sole Society c/o), necklace (Stella & Dot c/o)
look 3:  pants (WHBM c/o LEXINGTON GREEN ON SALE), blouse (WHBM c/o LEXINGTON GREEN ON SALE), clutch (Talbots c/o ON SALE), shoes (J.Crew see Similar)

'Tis the season for sparkle!  I venture to guess no other week warrants wearing sequins like this one does.  In honor of the pending New Year's festivities, I opted to share several ways I sport the shine.  Go figure my fave of this bunch is the look with the SNEAKS--def a look I'd sport if I was doing a casual celebration with close friends!  
Alright gang, apologies for the brevity but I've got a boatload of prep/packing today for my trip...feel free to scope out some sequins below.  Enjoy your Sunday--make it a good one!

NYE Ready

Finally getting back into the groove after getting back from FLA and the holiday--hope you and yours had a lovely one indeed---ours was fantastic (with the exception of me killing the girls' Xmas goldfish)!?!?  Everyone getting geared up for the New Year?  I'm heading to South America this week to celebrate the New Year, and therefore, my answer is a definite "Yes."   This little two piece number from Morton James is a definite contender but I've also scoped out a few others that I'm adoring (see PINKJUMPSUIT & LACE ROMPER).  
One would think I'm all shopped out from the holidays but sadly, I'm still on the hunt for several things....perfect time to snag some gems as there's SALES galore going on right now!  Piperlime has a handful of goodies (HOT PINK BALLETSGRAPHIC PUFFDISTRESSED SKINNIES), Nordstrom has some crazy good sales on OTK boots (HEREHEREHERE), & J.Crew has extra 40% OFF (see DAZZLESSURF STRIPE, & GLITTER).  Feel free to shop all of the goodies below--I've linked some NYE goodies and then some sale goods as well!  Quick little shoutout to Lindsey Potter for snagging my pics while in FL--she is as crazy talented as she is sweet---thanks missy!  Alright gang, hope y'all have a lovely (relaxing) weekend--make it a great one!

Fairly Distressed








sweater (LOFT 50% OFF love this SLOUCHY VERSION AT 50% OFF), denim (PAIGE 50% OFF), booties (Joie c/o Morton James), bag (Clare Vivier sold out, love this NAVY VERSION), watch (Daniel Wellington)

So if there was ever a time to snag a comfy Fair Isle, now is it!  LOFT is having 50% OFF ALL SWEATERS and this cozy guy above is included.  Lexingtonians, avoid the mayhem at the mall and make your way over to the Mall at Lexington Green to sneak a peak at the Loft goodies.  And while you're at it, snag a bite post shopping at Palmer's Fresh Grill.  When KT and I popped into Palmer's post shooting we fell IN LOVE with the place.  Truly, the decor is (and rarely do I use this adjective) so dope--think rustic chic with modern touches and such a killer nod to horse country--and the food is fantastic, too!  If y'all are out and about over at Lexington Green today doing some fine tuning on your shopping, definitely hop on in.   Bonus--Half priced bottles of wine on a Tuesday which I'm sure we all could use right about now!

Alright gang, hope everyone is tying up their loose ends successfully today---I have to always remind myself to just STOP at this point in the game...I'll drive myself bananas trying to check off every little detail!   Cheers to a wonderful Tuesday---feel free to shop some fair's below!  Make it a great one!

Sails, Sun, & Sand








bathing suit & coverup (Galt Ocean c/oCoverup), hat (HM, see similar HERE), rings (Lagos, Anna Beck), shades (Ray Ban ON SALE), watch (Daniel Wellington)

I promise I'll do my best to not rub it in for my fellow Kentuckians and pals in the cooler states, but I  more or less have lived in a bathing suit for the last week and it. has. been. fantastic.   Coming home is such fuel for my soul and this trip has been no exception.   We've spent the majority of our trip outside be it on the water or even horseback riding and it's been lovely!  Sharing this Galt Ocean REVERSIBLE bikini and here's why I'm loving it...it's a two in one meaning you're getting more bang for your buck with the navy on one side, and an adorable print on the opposite side---such great quality that does not 'pinch' my sides---I carry my weight in my hips and backside so I always struggle to find bottoms that 'lay' on my hips and don't pinch..these suckers do it!   My guy and I are headed to the beach for New Years this year so I'm on the hunt for one more suit to bring along with us--and some shades which btw my AVIATORS ARE ON SALE--take a look at the top contenders below.  Alright gang, cheers to a lovely Sunday...we're going to soak up our last few hours of sunshine before heading back to the Bluegrass.  Make it a great one!
