Boot the Romper

Clearly with temps being in the teens today in Lex, I ain't sporting this Floral Romp.  But trust me when I say,  I sure did sport it, along with these OTK's, while in Florida over Xmas break.  I have no doubts the romp will make for the perfect Spring transitional piece, too!  I've linked some other fun Transitional Floral Romps below because if you're anything like me, you're kinda over shopping the chilly stuff and ready to work on your spring wardrobe--even though, hells bells, it's an eternity away.  
Alright gang...T A X day---meh.  But I'm of the school of thought let's just get the bad news outta the way sooner rather than later, yes?  Cheers to a great Wednesday---make it a wonderful one!

The Dual Denim

jacket (Old Gap, see SIMILAR DENIM), sweater (Equipment), denim (Paige see SIMILAR ), patches (Rebecca Minkoff), sneaks (Converse), bag (Clare V c/o Omar + Elsie), shades (Ray Ban)

No stranger to a solid casual look, I am absolutely adoring this dual Denim Vibe.  Pair 'em with a fun PLAID and a side of PATCHES, and this look is one I could wear on the daily indeed.  

I brought my denim jacket (see Modern Version) outta hibernation while I was in Florida and added a fun twist in the way of Emoji Patches--they've proven to be one of my fave purchases as of late (and quite cheap, too)!

Alright kids, back to that grind am I right?!  I know I'm not solo when I say I've got a dang laundry list of nonsense to get to today---cheers to a Tuesday filled with productivity.  Make it a great one!

Stripes and Patches

dress (Stem, Nordstrom), patches (Rebecca Minkoff ), sneaks (Converse), jacket (old Gap,  LOVE THIS ONE), watch (Hublot, Moyer Fine Jewelers), shades (Ray Ban), clutch (Gigi New York)

Guess what I'm N O T wearing today?  This Dress.  Guess what I'd like to be wearing instead of my many layers thanks to the 8 degree weather in Indy...yea, you guessed it.  This Striped Number got mad usage while I was in FLA, and it will indeed be making appearances on my cruise next month, too!  Equal parts comfy and cute, it is one that would do all of our closets good--along with the Black, too!  And what's the quickest way to spruce up our college Denim Jackets (no really, I sported this bad boy to class at FSU back in 20**).....PATCHES!!  These quirky Emoji Patches are so fun and playful (and adhesive), and can be put on everything from Jackets to Backpacks.  
Alright gang, I'm wrapping up a weekend in Indy and need to get my hind in gear so I can snag the bunnies from school--y'all have a lovely start to your week---stay bundled!
PS--a huge thanks to my gal, Lindsey Potter, for snagging some fab shots back in our old neck of the woods, Stuart, where we went to high school--she's such a gem to work with (she loved the STRIPES, too)!

The Beanie Way

beanie (Sole Society sold out see SIMILAR), jacket (Doma orig from Morton James see SIMILAR), denim (see similar dl1961's), tee (H & M only $15), sneaks (converse see SIMILAR PLAID), bag (Clare V)

This rig is incorporating everything I love about a look---casual, comfy, and effortless.  Hand me a solid pair of Sneaks, Denim, Tee, & a Beanie, and you've got yourself a happy gal.  This tends to be my uniform during the winter months----if mother nature's a bit of a bear, I love the idea of polishing up the casual with my Lady Day Coat for a bit more warmth.  

Alright gang, I've been sitting at the Starbucks for several hours near my folk's place because their wifi is...horrid to say the least....hence the lack of posts here lately!  Gonna head back to the bunnies and have a little ice cream date with my big gal---cheers to a fabulous Wednesday!

Check the Midi

skirt (Talbots c/o ON SALE UNDER $60), blouse (see SIMILAR), heels (J.Crew see SIMILAR ON SALE), clutch (Sole Society see STRIPES), lip (MAC)

Back in the saddle, gang, after what was an absolutely incredible Mexican New Year's-slash-visit to FLA with the fam (we're actually still here).  And as much as I love and crave getaways with my crew, there's always a part of me that is ready to get back to the routine.  And so, with 2016 well underway, wanted to kick 'er off with this lovely GINGHAM MIDI (on SALE)....not sure she could be any cuter if she tried.  I love its ladylike meets graphic vibe--right up my alley.  
Sure it's somewhat customary to chat up resolutions, goals, etc--I say let's just get on with it already and churn out some style that I hope y'all will find a bit inspirational!  Looking forward to sharing our F O U R T H year together, gang---cheers to making it our best one yet!
