FLARES (see HERE, HERE, & HERE) FLARES. Not only so spot on for Fall, but if there was ever a jean that elongated your stems--these. are. it!! I promise you, FLARES have a knack for slenderizing the legs and being ridiculously flattering. Cleary based on the shots above (some from last year), I've been a fan for quite some time so I thought it was appropriate to do a little flare mashup for you all. For fall, I'm loving the idea of them paired with a Chunky Poncho ( I have this by the way and cannot WAIT to sport), Cropped Sweater, or a Flowy Button Down. I'm telling you gang, if you've yet to hop on the 70s bandwagon, toss on some Wedges and give 'em a go---you won't be sorry! Cheers to a wonderful weekend---feel free to shop my fave flares below--and more importantly, make it a great one!
Sported this look while in NYC last week and it will definitely be making some repeat performances in the near future. This Floral Swing Shirt is equal parts effortless and cozy (not to mention she's on major S A L E) and she pairs just beautifully with a dark pair of FLARES. For a fun fall transition, I'm digging the idea of the Flares partnered with a Striped Cropped Sweater--has an ever so slight 70s vibe but still just the right amount of polish! Pairing perfectly with a slew of fall looks---my Cognac Crossbody--she was tried and true in the spring and summer and no doubts she'll serve it up in the fall, too!
Alright gang, hope your Thursday is off to a great start---feel free to shop the look below and make it a great one!
Oh and PS--if in the market for scoring some major Summer Sale Goodies--be sure to check out yesterday's NORDSTROM SUMMER CLEARANCE SALE--T O N S of sale goodness!
Morning, Gang! Stumbled upon the Nordstrom End of Summer Clearance Sale this morning and scouted out a few goodies that were too good to pass up. This Dress would be perfection with these Ankle Booties (which I own and L O V E ) for the fall. This Fringed Crossbody is right on par with fall trends, the price on these Gladiators are entirely too good to pass up, and these Shield Booties...well, need I say more? Feel free to shop my other picks below by clicking on the images. Cheers to a great Wednesday, gang, we are halfway there! Make it a great one!
BUSY. We are all busy relatively speaking, aren't we? Whether it's schlepping the kids around, getting from one meeting to the next, getting your personal life in order amongst the chaos of your professional life---we are all B U S Y. I'm a one man show running my ship so my "busy" can be a cluster from time to time although I'd like to think I've got it all in order and it looks neat, pretty, and controlled (it ain't btw--just take a look at my laundry room--or hell, MY room for that matter). With that being said, I need to keep myself and my brood fueled. I am often guilty of going until 3 pm only to realize I've only had my Starbucks and then gorge myself on unhealthy snacks--it's not good not to mention terribly unhealthy. And the kiddies require a SNACK everyday at school, in their lunch boxes, and are savages when I pick them up--so what's the solution? Nourish Snacks my friends, Nourish Snacks. Forget about the fact that they're Gluten & Dairy Free, Non-GMO, taste so dang good, and are founded by the TODAY show's nuritionist, Joy Bauer, but have you seen how cute the packaging/names are--Mr. Popular, Monkey Love, Mind your P's and BBQ?? Kidding, that's not what is important here, but truly--I kinda love the catchiness of it all---so do the little ladies--Chase especially thinks she's quite the cool cat and loves the taste! Mom approved, Kid Devoured...enough said. Take a gander at all of the Delish Options--your kiddies will indeed thank you!
Alright gang, once again, hope your day is a little less busy with a little more chill but who are we kidding---Make it a great one nonetheless!
notepad (Tiny Prints c/o), chase NOTEBOOK (Tiny Prints c/o), name labels (Tiny Prints c/o), lunchbox notes (Tiny Prints c/o) We are well underway with all sorts of back to school shenanigans. Homework, parent teacher meetings, hip hop class, band practice, school projects--it's indeed that time of year! Not sure about your kiddies, but my girls love any and everything that is unique and personalized to them---they say it makes them feel, "Oh so special, Mom!" Enter Tiny Prints. Y'all know I'm a big fan of their Personalized Stationery, and their back to school goodies are equally as fun, fresh, and perfect for your school tykes. Funny thing is, my mom used to send little notes in my lunchbox which I now do as well for Chase & Cam---but we're talking a measly scratch piece of paper. So you can only imagine their excitement when they got a Personalized Lunchbox Note from Yours Truly--needless to say, Lunchtime has been a big hit with the little ladies. Three other items I'm totally digging from Tiny Prints--Chaser's Words to Live By Notebook (she's obsessed), Personalized Notepad (how precious is her "To Do" List), and Cam's Name Labels which are more or less on EVERY item within her backpack--kid loves a good sticker (and they're dishwasher safe)!
